Chapter 12 Imprisonment
784 Words
Hearing this, Feng De let out a sigh and said, "Miss Shi, Master has invited you to stay here as a guest for a while until you hand over the baby."
A guest? It was clearly imprisonment. Having been violated repeatedly and now losing her freedom, how could her life have such drastic ups and downs all of a sudden? She still couldn't figure out until now when exactly she had provoked this terrifying and disgusting man, who didn't even believe the result of the lie detector and firmly insisted that she was lying.
Shi Xiaonian sat there in silence, lowering her eyes to look at the soft quilt on her. She wanted to lift the quilt and leave, but found that her hands were powerless... The turmoil of the past two days had drained all her strength. At this moment, she was more useless than anything else. Even breathing felt exhausting. This intense sense of powerlessness made her feel frustrated, and a wave of sadness overwhelmed her.
After a long while, tears slid down her pale cheeks, and her voice struggled to come out from her throat. "Aren't you going too far? Relying on your power and influence to do whatever you want... On what grounds do you confine my freedom with just a word..." She was a human being, not an object.
"Miss Shi, as long as you hand over..."
"I really haven't given birth to a child." Shi Xiaonian said in a low voice. Tears fell silently like beads with a broken string. "I don't understand at all why you suddenly came to me." Was this what was meant by disaster falling from the sky?
"Last month, the Gong family in the UK was preparing to choose a suitable marriage partner for Master. So we made a reckoning of Master's relationships with men and women. When checking on the current situations of various women, only you, Miss Shi... All the evidence we found indicated that you had given birth to a baby, but we couldn't find the baby's whereabouts."
"What kind of evidence?" She asked.
"Miss Shi should know better than anyone else." Feng De didn't give a specific explanation and just said, "Miss Shi, after all, it's Master's own child. Master will never let the baby be left outside."
"Then... I'll go to the hospital. I'll accept an examination and then we'll know whether I've given birth to a child or not." Shi Xiaonian put forward a proposal that was almost humiliating to herself. As soon as the words came out, a bitter taste had already filled her eyes. She slowly closed her eyes and tightly clenched her fingertips into her palms. Clearly, she hadn't done anything wrong, yet she had to compromise again and again.
"Master said that he has already examined it himself and there's no need for a doctor." Feng De said.
Examine it himself. Just thinking about the scenes of those so-called "examinations" made a flood of embarrassment rush over her. Shi Xiaonian bit her lip until it almost lost its color and said, "I've told you that you've made a mistake." There was no baby at all.
"Miss Shi, to put it bluntly, just with the name Gong Ou, the probability of making a mistake is only one in ten thousand." Feng De saw that she was unlikely to admit the existence of the child, so he dropped the matter and said, "I'll go down and prepare some food for you."
Feng De walked out, leaving Shi Xiaonian alone in the bedroom.
One in ten thousand. She was that one in ten thousand.
She reached out to wipe away her tears and looked ahead. She saw a laptop on the desk in front of the purple curtain. Her heart trembled instantly, and she hurriedly lifted the quilt and got out of bed. The pain all over her body and her weakness made her almost fall down. Shi Xiaonian bit her lip tightly and forced herself to move forward with great pain. With each step she took, her hatred for that brute Gong Ou grew a little more.
She walked to the door, locked it from the inside, and then struggled to reach the desk. She opened the laptop and turned it on. While waiting for it to boot up, Shi Xiaonian's heart was pounding even more nervously, and the pain in her body was magnified many times. She could only clench her fists tightly to keep herself from crying out in pain.
Gong Ou. Sooner or later, she would make him pay back all this pain.
The computer booted up, and Shi Xiaonian was pleasantly surprised to find that it was connected to the Internet.
