All the way, he stopped struggling as if he had accepted this fate.
But his eyes were stubborn, and within those bright black irises, there was a glint of hatred.
Seeing him , An Ruo felt deeply pained.
Xiao Ji, it’s all my fault, it’s me who has harmed you...
She desperately held back the tears in her eyes and continued to watch the video.
The car traveled some distance before stopping in front of a vast building, akin to a school or some kind of castle.
An Ji was taken inside. Along the way, many strangers appeared; most were foreigners with various skin colors, but they were all around their teens.
Seeing An Ji, many cast unkind looks at him. The slender An Ji seemed so vulnerable before them.
The video ended there.
Anxious, An Ruo turned to Tang Yuchen and asked, "What place is that? Why did you send Xiao Ji there?"
Tang Yuchen leaned against the back of the chair, his arms still around her waist.
"That’s a comprehensive training school. There, one can learn various skills. Sending An Ji to that school is for his own good. Hasn’t he said he wanted to defeat me? If I don’t start training him now, even a hundred years won’t be enough for him to beat me."
A flicker of confusion passed through An Ruo’s eyes.
"You sent him there so that he can become strong enough to defeat you one day?"
Tang Yuchen shook his head with a smile, "Not just that. I sent him away to let you know, if you dare to seek death or take me down with you before I’m done playing with you, then I will discreetly crush your little brother to death!"
An Ruo’s eyes widened in shock. She grabbed his collar fiercely and said, "Let me tell you! If you dare to hurt Xiao Ji, if anything untoward happens to him, I will surely take you down with me!"
Instead of getting angry at her threat, Tang Yuchen merely laughed.
"Don’t worry. As long as you don’t get any funny ideas, An Ji will be fine. He will study there for ten years, and after ten years he can leave. In ten years, you’ll be able to see him. Of course, you can also choose to never see him again."
An Ruo suddenly teared up, the thought of not seeing Xiao Ji for ten years was unbearable for her.
"Tang Yuchen, give Xiao Ji back to me, otherwise I’ll report you..."
"Reporting me will be useless since An Ji has already willingly signed the enrollment agreement. An Ruo, he chose to stay there of his own will; I didn’t force him."
An Ruo shook her head in disbelief, "Impossible, Xiao Ji wouldn’t have stayed willingly..."
The man interrupted her, "Why impossible? An Ruo, you don’t know your brother well enough. He chose to stay in order to defeat me because he realizes that without a harsh environment to grow up in, he can never become strong."
"I don’t believe it. I’m his sister, he wouldn’t leave me; I don’t believe what you say!" An Ruo shook her head resolutely, "If you dare, let me talk to him on the phone. He must have been forced by you, Xiao Ji said he wouldn’t leave me."
Tang Yuchen nodded slightly: "OK, it seems you won’t believe me unless you hear it directly from him."
He flipped open his phone, dialed a number, and then handed the phone to An Ruo.
"Hello?" The faint voice of An Ji came through.
An Ruo eagerly spoke up, "Xiao Ji, it’s me, your sister!"
"Sis, where are you? Has that Tang guy done anything to you?!" An Ji asked anxiously.
