Yi Chengxuan was never a passive person. He usually held the initiative firmly in his hands. Thinking of this, Yue Xin did not continue to answer Denise’s question. Instead, she said, “See you at nine.” With that, she turned around and returned to the cell.
Seeing that Yue Xin had left, No.12 ignored the children and continued to find a place where he could see the location of Yue Xin’s cell to exercise.
At that moment, the children finally ran to Denise’s side and helped her up. All of them cried uncontrollably.
“Sister Denise, I’m sorry. It’s all our fault. If we hadn’t been sold in…’ “It’s not your fault. I was too naive. I thought they could keep their promise.”
“Sister, what should we do now? It’s really scary outside. What will happen to us if we pass the newbie protection period..
Denise pursed her lips and hugged the worried children. She couldn’t go to Building No. 8. The people in Building No. 8 couldn’t be trusted. She had seen too many men. She could detect men lying immediately. A powerless woman like her would be completely reduced to a plaything once she attached herself to a man. Playthings couldn’t protect the people they wanted to protect. Denise had already experienced it once. Being locked in this prison was the best punishment for her arrogance and naivety.
The prison guard, No.12, was a strong and reliable man. Unfortunately, he already had an owner. Denise thought that if she could approach No.12 first, she was confident that she could pry him away. After all, no man had ever escaped from her hands. However, after exchanging glances with No.12 just now, she knew that this man had no heart. She could not conquer a man without a heart.
As for Yue Xin, the former VIP of Building No. 1 whom everyone thought was a disaster, it didn’t seem to be as simple as a summary of the rumors. After considering her current situation and what Yue Xin had just said, Denise made a choice.
She said to the children beside her, “You guys go back first. I’ll wait here. Tonight… I might be able to go back. Don’t worry about me.”
Originally, none of the eight children believed it. After being coaxed by Denise for a long time, they reluctantly left.
After they left, Denise stood silently at Yue Xin’s door. She didn’t do anything but wait. But Denise knew very well that every minute she stood at Yue Xin’s door, a gaze was fixed on her. If she made any move, she would be instantly hit.
After what seemed like an eternity, the door in front of Denise finally opened.
Yue Xin stood in front of Denise and looked at her without any surprise. It was as if she had long known that Denise was standing outside.
“Let’s go. Follow me to Building No. 8. You don’t have to do anything. Just follow behind me.”
Although Denise was still puzzled, after being frightened by Yue Xin this morning, she was obviously much more obedient. She no longer made any carefully designed expressions at Yue Xin and nodded obediently.
When Yue Xin saw this, she summarized another technique. It turned out that this was like giving a sweet date with a slap. She had learned it.
Yue Xin brought No.12 and Denise out of the newbie building. There were clearly only the three of them, but there was a mighty aura that stunned Yi Chengxuan at the door.
However, he didn’t say anything about Yue Xin’s actions. He just casually mentioned, “Sometimes, one person being deceived is the same as everyone being deceived.”
As soon as they met, she heard Yi Chengxuan’s strange words. Before Yue Xin could reflect on herself, she chose to shirk responsibility. “Are you still asleep?
What nonsense are you talking about?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a coquettish laugh suddenly sounded in her ear. Yue Xin glanced at Denise when she heard it. Denise immediately stopped laughin. “I’m sorry.”
Yi Chengxuan took a look and thought of something. Seeing that Yue Xin didn’t seem to notice, he didn’t remind her. Instead, he urged, “Let’s go. There aren’t many people in Building No. 8 now. You can still choose and watch. When the gamblers come, Building No. 8 will be in chaos.”
Yue Xin nodded. Although she didn’t understand what Yi Chengxuan meant, it didn’t stop her from nodding.
The distance between the Newbie Building and Building No. 8 was very far. Yi Chengxuan opened the door and brought them there. This was the privilege of those in power. If anyone doubted it, the person in power would drive a car and kill them. There was a reason why Building No. 8 was so far away from the Newbie Building. The Newbie Building was filled with poor people who didn’t have the money to gamble, so they might as well build it further away. Money could summarize all the rules and intentions of the Land of the Fallen.
After a twenty-minute drive, they arrived at the entrance of Building 8. Yi Chengxuan parked the car at the side. He heard that someone would specially come and take it away later. If Building No. 1 looked like a very high-class VIP residence and was a luxurious symbol of status and elegance, then Building No. 8 was Dure nouveau riche. It was extremely luxurious. The entire building was golden and shiny, very eye-catching. From the first floor to the top floor, it seemed to be expressing one thing: money..
