She was very young then, her father was in debt, she was taken away and thrown into a dirty, messy, small basement, where she was locked up for a whole day and a night. For the child, the darkness and the cold and the fear were something she would never forget for the rest of her life.

And there was also the first night. For some reason, she smelled the faint scent of that first night.

"Don't be afraid, it's just an elevator failure." Zhong Yuqing gently caressed her back. The back of her blue dress was hollow; cold sweat covered her back and stuck on his warm palm.

Zhong Yuqing knew the reason why she was afraid. He remembered everything she told him in Africa.

It was just that he felt an inexplicable amount of pity for Tang Xiaoyi when she reacted to his fear.

Perhaps it was because of her patient personality, but when she faced danger and fear, her reaction was different from the other girls.

Always clenching one's teeth and fighting with all one's might.

"Speak." Zhong Yuqing touched her smooth face. It was alright, there were no tears on it.

"Can you let Shen Mo's family off?" Tang Xiao Ai finally opened her mouth and said with a trembling voice.

Zhong Yuqing's pity for her all flew away at once. His face darkened in the darkness as he pushed her away from him.

At this moment, the one who asked was Shen Mo.

Didn't she think about her own safety?

Of course Tang Xiao Ai was worried for their safety. It was just that Zhong Yuqing calmly said it was just a "malfunction of the elevator" and would be able to get out soon. She suppressed her fear and took advantage of this "solitude" opportunity to speak up for Shen Mo.

"Shen Mo's mother's company has already been annexed. Why make things so difficult for them?" Tang Xiao Ai leaned against the wall of the elevator. Her back didn't feel warm at all, only cold. She asked in a low voice, "Let them go, okay?"

"I gave you a chance that day." Zhong Yuqing was on the other side. His voice was cold, making the atmosphere in the elevator even more gloomy and depressing.

"As long as you help him, I can …" "Reconsiderate..."

"I only gave you one chance, you've wasted it." Zhong Yuqing ruthlessly interrupted her. In the enclosed space, his voice was as cold as ice. "Do you think I lack a lover?" Or do you think I like to joke around? "

Tang Xiaoyi could not see anything in the darkness. She could only see Shen Mo's future.

It sealed the dark, cold, and narrow future just like the one in the elevator.

"I can do other things for you …"

"Others can do it for me too, so why do I have to use you?" Zhong Yuqing once again ruthlessly interrupted her. His voice became gentler as he asked, "Moreover, you don't have a person's skills to make a man comfortable, nor do you want to make a man happy. You're like a stinky and hard stone, aren't you?"

Tang Xiao Ai didn't have the strength to deal with such a strong opponent. With a single word from Zhong Guoqing, he would be able to completely defeat her.

"Sorry …" I'm not qualified to ask you to do anything. Sometimes I'm a little stubborn... But, I really need your help, I will repay you … will change... " Tang Xiao Ai bit her lips and once again felt that her fate was cruel and merciless.

He couldn't be strong. Everything was fleeting.

But Shen Mo couldn't wait for her to grow wings, and neither could she herself.

Perhaps not. Her wings would be broken by the men around her before they were fully grown.

"With what? Is it because Shen Mo can sell out everything? " Zhong Yuqing's voice suddenly came very close to her. He approached her soundlessly like a ghost, whispering in her ear accurately in the darkness.

"As long as you help me …" Tang Xiao Yi restrained her trembling voice as she placed her hand on his chest, slowly moving down until she reached his strong and narrow waist. She paused for a moment before resolutely surrounding him, suppressing all of her emotions, tightly pressing down, "What did you say …" I'll listen, what do you want... "I'll give it all."

She took the initiative to hug him, causing her last line of defense to completely collapse. She didn't cry, only bleeding internally. In the end, she also became a lowly woman, not much different from the other women in the entertainment circle.

For the sake of purpose, she didn't care about everything else, just like how, for money, she could sell off her young body and her cheap chastity. She had fallen into depravity so quickly.

She had originally thought that in these three years of her career as an artist, she would at least be able to hold on to her last line of defense.

However, it was only for three months. He jumped into the vat willingly and dyed himself black.

The other party was Zhong Yuqing. For someone like her, losing wasn't that embarrassing. If she thought about the rich man with a brain full of fat yesterday and looked at his appearance, she wouldn't be the Virgin Mary and would be as ugly as other women. She might even feel slightly gratified … At least he was lucky to be the lover of a handsome gentleman.

He would get what he wanted no matter what.

Shen Mo was only one of his little tricks. Zhong Yuqing could use many methods to deal with a girl like Tang Xiao Ai to make her listen to him.

However, he was not as happy as he had expected.

This was because she was doing something that went against her nature for Shen Mo.

Zhong Yuqing stood straight. It was the first time that he had succeeded, but he still felt frustrated and disgusted.

Although for a person like him, the process wasn't important, what was important was the result, so he could do anything to achieve his goal. However, today's result made him swallow a housefly's stomach.

Moreover, he would also remember that Tang Xiao Yi had treated him as Shen Mo the other day … Would he also be used as a substitute in the future? This feeling was terrible. Zhong Yuqing didn't feel comfortable.

"If it were anyone else, would you also throw yourself into her arms like that?" Zhong Yuqing pushed away Tang Xiaoyi, who had taken the initiative to hug him. She laughed silently in the darkness with a hint of mockery in her voice. "Actually, there's no difference between you and those women. It's just that you know how to be more reserved than them."

"Nothing is special. It's the same inside when you peel off different shells." A cold smile appeared on Tang Xiao Ai's lips, just like that sentence … Life was like rape. If you couldn't resist, you had to enjoy it. How thoroughly she had comprehended it!

The lights in the elevator suddenly lit up and Tang Xiao Yi suddenly closed her eyes. The sorrowful smile on her lips hadn't completely disappeared, but Zhong Guiqing had already noticed it.

The elevator door opened and a group of security guards stood outside. Each of them looked nervous. The person in charge explained in fear, afraid that Zhong Yuqing would be angered.

Qin Junning was also waiting outside the elevator. When he turned around, Tang Xiao Ai had also disappeared and Zhong Yueqing had also disappeared. He immediately had a bad feeling and went up to look for her.

He happened to see the security guards rushing back and forth. He grabbed the elevator and asked, but it turned out that there was a problem with the elevator. Zhong Sovereign was still in the elevator with Tang Xiaoyi.

Qin Zheng had just scolded Tang Xiao Ei and sternly ordered her to not meet him again. However, she actually 'met' Zhong Yao in private so quickly. He was so angry inside that he wished he could pull out the security guard's electric baton and beat her to death.

However, looking at the tightly shut elevator doors and the busy security personnel, Qin Junning was also a bit worried about whether his good friend and his own money tree would be in trouble.

However, when she saw the elevator door open, and Tang Xiao Yi stood beside Zhong Guoqing, Qin Zheng's anger soared once more. He immediately rushed inside and pulled Tang Xiao Yi out, almost causing her to fall down.

"Let's go back." When Qin Junning saw Zhong Yuqing was still alive, he gave him a fierce glare and dragged Tang Xiaoshan like he was pulling a kitten by the tail, dragging her away.

He wanted to properly teach this woman and let her know who was the master.

Tang Xiao Ai did not dare to disobey him, nor did she have the mood to resist. She was like a puppet, being dragged along by Qin Gao. Her face was filled with unconcealable sorrow and disappointment.

She was filled with disappointment over her own life. She had already fallen to such a state … He had already said that to Zhong Yuanzhong … However, there was still no hope for her. Instead, she had been ridiculed by Zhong Yuqing. Right now, she was like a lowly prostitute without any dignity.

"Tang Xiaoyi, what did I tell you just now?" Qin Junning angrily brought her back to Escrow, while Tang Xiao Yi was like a docile little dog whose tail had been grabbed by him from beginning to end. She didn't even make a sound as she was dragged back by him.
