"Hmph." Shi Yaoguang scoffed, her gaze at An Siqi filled with mockery, "Do you think by denying it, you can pretend nothing ever happened?"

An Siqi’s face showed panic, she stamred, "I really realize my mistake, please let go..."

"I know it’s all my fault, I was delusional, I was malicious, everything is my fault, I truly realize my mistake, please give a chance to make ands..."

Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, "Make ands?"

An Siqi nodded hastily, "Yes, yes, yes, I can make ands!"

Shi Yaoguang’s expression was one of interest, "Make ands? Then tell , how do you plan to do that?"

"I... I..." An Siqi wracked her brain for a long ti but couldn’t co up with a satisfactory condition to offer.

Faced with the predatory Shi Yaoguang, she finally bit the bullet and said reluctantly, "Anything you want to do, I will!"

"Really?" Shi Yaoguang looked at her intently, a hint of determination in her eyes.

Confronted with her gaze, An Siqi instantly caved in, "True... no, false..."

Shi Yaoguang watched her coldly and humd softly, "Hmm?"

An Siqi knew that if she couldn’t give her the answer she wanted, there was no way out for her.

After ntally preparing herself several tis, she finally made up her mind and said, "Truly."

"Good." Shi Yaoguang snapped her fingers, and An Siqi felt the ropes around her loosen.

She was sure that the ropes had co off by themselves.

There was nothing tricky about the ropes, and Shi Yaoguang couldn’t have done anything...

Which ant that it was Shi Yaoguang who had controlled them to untie on their own.

She...

How did she manage that?

Fear filled An Siqi’s eyes.

Shi Yaoguang stood with her arms crossed as if she hadn’t noticed An Siqi’s fear, scrutinizing her with a judging look.

"Yao..." An Siqi felt goosebumps rising under her gaze.

But confronted with her icy stare, she couldn’t bring herself to call out her na and could only look at her pleadingly, hoping she wouldn’t scare her anymore.

Shi Yaoguang snorted dispassionately, "In all this ti we’ve known each other, how many tis have you taken advantage of ?"

An Siqi’s breath hitched, her mouth opened, but she couldn’t utter a word.

How many tis had she taken advantage of her?

If she were to count, there were just too many to tally.

Shi Yaoguang watched her struggle and raised an eyebrow, "Can’t rember?"

An Siqi didn’t dare to nod and muttered, "I..."

"Stop beating around the bush." Shi Yaoguang was tired of her muttering, "All the benefits you’ve gained from , pay them back in full. That’s not too hard, is it?"

An Siqi shook her head repeatedly, "No, it’s not hard."

Shi Yaoguang smirked, appearing quite satisfied, "Very good."

An Siqi beca wary, defensively bracing herself, yet she couldn’t prevent anything.

She could only hope that Shi Yaoguang would show so rcy.

She had thought Shi Yaoguang would make so excessive demands, but unexpectedly, Shi Yaoguang was quite reasonable.

"Considering our past relationship, I won’t ask you for much, just work to pay off your debt."

An Siqi even doubted she had heard correctly.

Work to repay the debt?

Was it really just as simple as working to repay the debt?

Facing her incredulous look, Shi Yaoguang raised an eyebrow, "What, think I’m being too nice to you, not used to it?"

An Siqi stiffly nodded her head.

She...

Indeed wasn’t used to it.

Or rather, she found it unbelievable.

The Shi Yaoguang she saw now seed even more terrifying than Ming Yan.

Not only was she frightening, but her ans were also unfathomable.

For so inexplicable reason, An Siqi was reminded of sothing Teacher Qin Hongbo once said at school.

He had said that Shi Yaoguang was a witch capable of sorcery.

At the ti, An Siqi had scoffed at the idea. Although she knew Shi Yaoguang might know so tricks, she never thought of her as genuinely aweso.

But then...

An Siqi’s mind was filled with the image of the ropes falling off her, her limbs rigid with shock.

Even now, free from her restraints, she dared not move.

She could only stand still like a statue, waiting for Shi Yaoguang’s decision.

Shi Yaoguang stared at her, her eyes shimring with a cold and eerie gleam, "You’ve annoyed , and I’m very unhappy,"

she stated calmly.

A bitter smile played on An Siqi’s lips.

She had known this much already.

And precisely because she knew, because she was aware, her heart was all the more anxious.

"I know you love money, that everything you do is for money,"

Shi Yaoguang added leisurely.

An Siqi watched her nervously, uncertain of what she was getting at.

Shi Yaoguang: "As punishnt, you will work to pay off your debt. Aside from essential expenses, I won’t give you another di."

Upon hearing this, An Siqi breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, thank goodness.

This was sothing she could live with.

Shi Yaoguang, seeing her thoughts, smirked coldly.

Her conditions were indeed not harsh, but... everything had its use.

The things swallowed by An Siqi would have their day of reckoning.

An Siqi was unaware of her plotting, her mind filled with the relief of having escaped catastrophe.

In her view, Shi Yaoguang was still too soft-hearted.

Even in wanting to deal with her, she rely made the demand to work off the debt.

If it had been her...

An Siqi imagined herself in the advantageous position, and her hand subconsciously touched her nose.

Shi Yaoguang, of course, knew what she was thinking, but she did not intend to explain.

A surprise...

was no longer a surprise if revealed upfront.

An Siqi, believing Shi Yaoguang to be sowhat lenient with her, tentatively sought to push her luck further.

"Yaoguang... I’m willing to accept your demand, but in my current state..." she bit her lower lip, an awkward look on her face, "What if Ming Yan doesn’t let off the hook?"

"Don’t worry, he won’t be holding on to you."

"Really?" An Siqi’s eyes brightened.

Shi Yaoguang asserted with certainty, "Of course."

Her confidence wasn’t because Ming Yan was none other than Quan Siyan, nephew of Quan Jinbei.

She was doing this purely because she was very clear on the thoughts of Ming Yan’s second personality.

And also, because she had the confidence to achieve her goal.

Ming Yan’s second personality was volatile, which was why it considered tornting An Siqi. If it knew there was a better way to do so, it would certainly be delighted.

As for what An Siqi thought, that was not sothing Shi Yaoguang needed to worry about.

Adults always had to pay the price for their choices.

An Siqi, secretly relieved at the mont, would think back on everything that happened today and would have given anything to co back and slap her naive self.

Unfortunately, ti would not flow backward for her.

Of course, all that would co later.

Upon hearing that Shi Yaoguang wanted to take An Siqi away, Ming Yan’s second personality initially resisted.

But after a few private words with Shi Yaoguang, Ming Yan readily let her go, his gaze on An Siqi even carrying a hint of sinister excitent.
