Hearing the steady [-ding]'s in her head, she wanted to let out a laugh.
Negative emotions aren't only hatred or resentment, even hostility could be considered as negative energy.
Patience is the key to victory.
This bastard doesn't even know that she's giving her enemy a helping hand on stepping closer in killing her.
As long as she saved enough…
Her thoughts were cut by the stinging pain in her lower abdomen.
There was a burning red whiplash.
"Listen to me you bitch!"
Shen Meilin exploded once she noticed this bitch wasn't even paying attention to her.
[Ding- negative emotions has been detected, +0.03 points]
[Ding- negative emotions has been detected, +0.03 points]
[Ding- negative emotions has been detected, +0.03 points]
3 consecutive notifications that were a bit higher than normal showed themselves in her head.
But Shen Yun can't care about that, although the pain of the whiplash couldn't compare to her flesh being ripped apart while she was still alive, it still fucking hurt!
She glared fiercely at the preparator.
Seeing the change of attitude and attention fully on her, Shen Meilin smirks with satisfaction.
Going back to her sweet voice, she started talking once again.
"You see sister, something happened today, and I wanted to invite you for tea to talk about it like we always do, remember? But my sister is late once again, so I couldn't…"
[This psychopathic bitch!]
[System recommends the host to buy the numbing pill for 10 points.]
[Numbing pill:
Closes all the consumer's body's 6 senses including pain.
-10 points]
[Yes or No]
System 69 recommended a shop item as it noticed the host sweating intensifies, as well as her pupils losing focus.
[-No.]
Shen Yun refused sternly.
It was a waste to use 10 points just to numb the pain.
The pain was indeed overwhelming, but it was not enough for her to lose her sense of reason.
She could still endure.
Slap.
The sound of a slap echoes.
"Don't you have ears?! I told you to listen!"
There was craziness hidden behind Shen Meilin's voice.
Shen Yun looked up, something must have happened for someone like Shen Meilin who never let down her persona to suddenly act like this.
Even when she was torturing Shen Qiaolian, she wasn't this crazy.
...Shen Yun had the urge to taunt her current appearance.
Her arrogance couldn't stand being treated like this and not smacking the enemy back.
But reason still has control over her, and knowing that provoking a psycho in times like this is akin to suicide.
Endure... if she endures, she'll be able to make her pay double, no, 10 fold of what she and the original owner experience.
And so Shen Yun persists.
She didn't know exactly how long she stayed in that room, she just knew she stayed long enough that she didn't mind doing that mission that much anymore.
Knock knock.
The sound of someone knocking on the door interrupted the exploding Shen Meilin, much to Shen Yun's relief.
"Didn't I say not to disturb me?!"
The maid who came to deliver the message was shaking with fear.
"M-madam is looking for young miss, she says the 2 of you should have time to bond after a long time."
Shen Meilin looked pissed, but considering what she and her mother might discuss…
"Alright, tell mother I'll meet her in a while."
The blood craze expression was replaced by a gentle look in an instance.
Shen Yun had to admit this girl was a good actress, no wonder she was able to fool everyone.
Shen Meilin glanced at her, before signalling the maids outside the door to help Shen Yun stand up.
She took a cream from one of the maids and gently applied it to Shen Yun's wound as if she wasn't the one who caused it in the first place.
"Sister must take care of herself. Look at how clumsy you are getting all these injuries, if someone else saw them what would they think of me, who invited you?"
Shen Meilin put more force on the fingers that were applying the cream.
"Although the cream might hurt a little…the wound would instantly heal. Sister can endure a bit of hardship right?"
[This fucking bitch-]
Shen Yun cussed internally as she held in the impulse to scream.
It felt as if it needles were piling her skin one by one and someone was rubbing salt and spice thoroughly on it.
Her breathing sped up as she tried to adjust to the pain, but no matter what, it wouldn't lessen or disappear.
[Host bare with it for a few more minutes, the pain should only last for at most 5 minutes.]
Just as it said, the pain subdued after a couple of minutes, but Shen Yun was slumping to the ground trying to catch her breath.
Shen Meilin had a look of disappointment when she didn't even hear a scream coming out of Shen Yun's mouth.
But her expression cleared instantly as she smiled brightly and said in a coaxing voice,
"I hope my sister comes more often."
Then she turned around, flicked her sleeves in disdain and strutted out leaving Shen Yun on the floor.
The maids knew what to do as they deftly changed the clothing of Shen Yun, despite her struggle.
Shen Yun knew that her struggle would be useless, but she couldn't help it.
The feeling of being left bare and open for anyone to see... was far from pleasant.
[Peipei, you perverts! Don't any of you know something called privacy.]
I mean, what would you feel when you're entirely naked in front of strangers while lying on the floor?
Even if they are all women, that fact didn't give Shen Yun the least of comfort.
Luckily for Shen Yun, the maids mere nimble and dressed her up in a few minutes.
The maids dressed her up in an even more fashionable dress than what she used when she arrived.
The cream Shen Meilin used was also very effective, there was no trace left of her being abused aside from the faint scars on her body which were hard to see.
The purpose for all of this was obvious, it was to make that sister of hers look like a saint, and her look like a greedy bitch.
The lavish dress didn't bother her much, with or without it, her reputation is already rock bottom anyways.
Shen Yun even liked it a bit. Compared to the coarse texture of her previous clothing, the soft and light silk of this dress was a win.
Personal grudges aren't supposed to affect the quality of things~
And as for the fact that Shen Meilin may have already used it?
She's pretty sure no one would like that something they used would be owned by the person they hated right?
And the purpose of dragging her down would lessen by a lot if she used this in public already.
So she's pretty safe in that area.
The maids didn't treat her respectfully, but they also didn't give her a hard time and just let her go.
That's a change, it seems not everyone here has spare time.
[How many points did I collect?]
She asks with a despondent face.
With all the pain she has been through, it should at least be a hefty sum, right?
[the host has collected a total of 23.42 points, and has a total amount of 38.42 points]
[Only that much…]
She grumbled as she walked over the small bridge.
[by what the system calculates, host earned an average of 0.01/4s]
The two of them chatted until they passed by an artificial hill inside the garden that allowed a person to take a glimpse of the setting sun.
The sky was dyed with a beautiful hue of red and orange.
She stopped for a few seconds, observing the beautiful scenery.
At least, that's what it looked like.
Her eyes flashed a cold glint.
The system, noticing the host anomaly, scanned the surroundings.
[There's someone following you.]
