Gao Jinmei initially thought these people captured her because they didn't want her to leave the assassin organization and wanted her to continue being an assassin. However, she later discovered that wasn't the case at all. It was because someone in the assassin organization had put a bounty on her and Qi Tian.
Because Gao Jinmei wasn't with Qi Tian, the assassins didn't kill her immediately. Instead, they locked her in a dungeon and tortured her severely to extract Qi Tian's whereabouts from her.
Gao Jinmei naturally refused to confess, and then she suffered a series of brutal beatings, which left her in her current condition.
