Chapter 48: Chapter 48: The Tempted Top Student (22) Chapter 48: Chapter 48: The Tempted Top Student (22) An Jiuge and Ye Wanhe, having been isolated for many days, had initially shouted loudly.
They proclaimed their identities incessantly, cursing and threatening without end.
Ye Wanhe fared a bit better; upon realizing that verbal threats and bribes were useless and only resulted in colder treatment by the guards, she changed her strategy.
Her looks were deceiving, and gradually, her situation improved somewhat.
Except for being unable to glean any information from outside and having no freedom, everything else was still bearable.
At this moment, Ye Wanhe could only hope that her parents would take her out soon.
By contrast, An Jiuge’s situation was much more turbulent.
When he was first taken away, his resistance led to his limbs being broken. Although they were set later, because of his fierce resistance, his bones were broken over and over again.
Broken then set, and once set, they broke again… Eventually, habitual fractures formed.
A slight lack of caution would leave him collapse on the ground like a cripple, too disheartened to cause any more trouble.
An Jiuge thought his family would quickly get him out, but as days passed, he remained there, with no sign of movement from his family.
Although he was a spoiled rich kid, he understood the basics.
Had his family… abandoned him?
An Jiuge racked his brains but couldn’t understand why dealing with the insignificant Su Li had led him to this plight.
After spending a total of thirty-eight days in this solitary cell where he ate, drank, defecated, and slept, An Jiuge now looked scruffy, with a pervasive gloomy stench of excrement around him.
“An Jiuge, come out….”
The heavy iron door opened, and An Jiuge was stunned for a moment before overflowing with ecstasy.
It must have been his family getting him out.
His demeanor instantly changed from the previous dejection to arrogance, and he viciously said to the person pushing him forward, “You remember this….”
Facing An Jiuge’s threats, the opponent’s subordinate forced a smile and pushed harder.
With a “creak,” An Jiuge’s elbow drooped powerlessly, causing him excruciating pain.
“How should I remember it?”
An Jiuge’s harsh words swirled in his mouth and were reluctantly swallowed back down.
The people here were ruthless, and during his time here, he had witnessed their methods.
He would settle the score once he got out.
An Jiuge, arm hanging, spoke with a somewhat softer tone, “Aren’t you going to fix my arm?”
A “crack” sound from his bones sent chills down his spine, and An Jiuge endured another intense pain, but this time, he pursed his lips in silence, his eyes intensely focused on the back of the man in front of him.
The scene An Jiuge imagined did not occur; he was led to another isolation room.
There was only him in the room, and no second person appeared for a long while.
The prolonged silence gradually frayed his nerves, and at his breaking point, a faint noise finally approached the door.
The door opened, and a familiar face appeared before An Jiuge.
Overjoyed, he rushed toward the figure.
“Brother, are you here to take me back home? We must make these people pay; they had the audacity to illegally detain me….”
Reinvigorated, An Jiuge complained to An Jiuzhou.
“And they even dared to lay hands on me, as if they had the guts of bears and leopards.” An Jiuge’s eyes reddened, his gaze venomous like a Poison Snake’s, filled with hatred for everyone here.
He had imagined torturing them a thousand times in his mind.
An Jiuge kept talking, not noticing his older brother’s strange expression at all.
An Jiuzhou just had a stern face and showed no reaction to An Jiuge’s current plight.
After rambling for a long time, An Jiuge finally sensed something was wrong, he slowly quieted down, smiling tentatively as he asked, “Brother, let’s go…I miss mom and dad…”
While saying this, he reached out to grab his older brother’s arm, but the other stepped back and avoided it.
An Jiuzhou looked at his younger brother deeply and helplessly, then silently sat down on the room’s only chair.
“I’m sorry, what you did was too heinous, even the family can’t save you this time.”
The smile on An Jiuge’s face faintly dissipated, he asked puzzledly, “I…I didn’t do anything…”
“She’s a nationally protected top-level research scientist, what you did to her has outraged the higher-ups…”
An Jiuzhou reminded him.
“Impossible…I…” An Jiuge couldn’t believe he had fallen to such straits, just because of that woman he thought was an ant.
“Why did you have to provoke her?” An Jiuzhou still harbored significant resentment towards his brother.
“Time’s up, you have to go now.”
In the empty room, a voice suddenly came from some corner, and the door was opened from outside.
Before An Jiuge could finish what he had yet to say, An Jiuzhou stood up decisively, with a deep look, left only a phrase, “Fend for yourself…” and walked out.
When the heavy sound of the door closing reached his ears, An Jiuge finally remembered his predicament.
He insanely banged on the closed door, shouting, “Let me out…”
Then he picked up a chair and smashed it against the door, but the door didn’t budge, and from exerting too much force, his hands unavoidably cracked with a “snap,” and he fractured them again.
This time An Jiuge finally felt a hint of fear.
A hopeless terror gradually spread through his body, all his arrogant defiance at that moment became nothing.
Soon, under Su Li’s indication, An Jiuge was taken from there and imprisoned in the men’s first prison.
This place detained a group of extremely fierce individuals.
For spoiled rich kids like An Jiuge, it was like a lamb wandering into a pack of wolves, destined only to be swallowed alive.
To the people here, An Jiuge was the most despicable, and on his very first day, he suffered inhuman humiliation.
An Jiuge thought the worst possible miseries had already happened, but little did he know, more devastating events awaited him.
In prison, there were many people with connections, and soon An Jiuge’s background was thoroughly investigated, causing his fellow inmates to become even more unrestrained.
An Jiuge’s delicate features stood out among a group of muscular, burly men.
Some of the men, who had been without a woman for many days, couldn’t help but set their sights on him…
One Bald man took advantage of the bathing time in the evening, dragging An Jiuge into a corner.
The surrounding people, used to such sights, joked and laughed merrily.
A few sharp screams were heard, and shortly afterward, the Bald man came out naked with a satisfied look on his face.
“Bald, are you not capable? That was so quick.”
Teased by others, the Bald man was not angered, he licked his lips with his tongue and said, “Just wanted a taste, it’s never as soft and comfy as a woman.”
