Ou Minghan lay on the ground in agony. He could feel everything clearly, but had no strength whatsoever!
"This is the good thing about going abroad; if you want any weapon, as long as you have money, you can buy anything," Ou Tiantian said, waving the tranquilizer gun in her hand with a bright smile in front of Ou Minghan's face. "Brother, this is a new type of tranquilizer gun developed by the police of a small country. It can be used within ten meters, relying on a huge electron beam emitted by an electronic needle to disrupt the criminal's nervous system and paralyze muscle tissue in a short period.
They say that when hit by this tranquilizer gun, one doesn't fall unconscious, their consciousness remains clear, they just can't resist. Is that right, brother?"
Ou Minghan glared at her hatefully, but his body couldn't move at all.
"It seems to be true~" Ou Tiantian smiled even more happily. Soon, she found ropes and tied Ou Minghan up. After that, she dragged him all the way back to the basement.
Ou Minghan's head bumped and scraped along the way. He almost fainted from the pain, but Ou Tiantian didn't care at all.
Back in the basement, Ou Tiantian locked Ou Minghan back onto the bed. This time, she adjusted the chains to be tighter.
After adjusting them, she brought a few bottles of glucose and started an IV drip for Ou Minghan.
Ou Minghan, who had been anxious, fearing that Ou Tiantian would launch a frenzied revenge against him, was still uneasy but also felt relieved. Finally, utterly exhausted, he couldn't resist and passed out.
When Ou Minghan woke up, he found that his strength had recovered significantly, and the wounds on his body were now cool to the touch, as if Ou Tiantian had applied medicine.
The door opened, and Ou Tiantian walked in.
"Tianti an..." Ou Minghan looked at her with a complex expression. He couldn't help but wonder if Ou Tiantian still had feelings for him? Had she ultimately not been able to let him go!
"Brother, are you feeling better?" Ou Tiantian's face was beaming with a joyful smile.
Ou Minghan seemed to be blinded by the light. He couldn't help but say, "Much better..."
"That's good," Ou Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief. "I was really afraid you wouldn't be able to withstand the next punishment!"
Ou Minghan's face turned desperate again. So... Ou Tiantian saved him only to give him the strength to continue enduring torment?
"Brother, you're naughty~ You actually tried to escape~" Ou Tiantian said indignantly.
"Tianti an, I, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again," Ou Minghan said in a panic. He didn't know what awaited him, but a primal fear welled up in his heart.
"I don't believe your promises! You've said these words before, but you didn't keep them!" Ou Tiantian appeared angry.
"Then, what do I have to do for you to believe me?" Ou Minghan asked, steeling himself.
"Let me think..." Ou Tiantian suddenly said happily as if she had an idea. "Got it! If I break your arms and legs, you won't be able to run!"
Saying this, Ou Tiantian took out a hammer. She excitedly held the hammer and gestured towards Ou Minghan's wrist.
Ou Minghan's face was filled with terror. "Tianti an... Ah!"
A loud scream echoed in the basement, and Ou Minghan passed out from the pain.
When Ou Minghan woke up again, he only felt pain in all his limbs. Ou Tiantian was by his side, looking at him with pure innocence.
"Ou Tiantian, you, you devil..." Ou Minghan said through gritted teeth, cold sweat beading on his forehead.
"Brother, your experience is much easier than the human experiments I've undergone!" Ou Tiantian said displeasantly. "It's just that my conditions are limited, so I can't let you enjoy those! Besides, you were the one who wanted to run. You forced me to break your arms and legs, didn't you? It's your fault in the end!"
"You..." Ou Minghan was in too much pain to speak properly.
"Alright, alright, bear with it for now. Seeing you like this makes my heart ache~" Ou Tiantian took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the sweat from Ou Minghan's face. She said softly, "Brother, don't worry. Although I've broken your limbs, I'll reattach them for you! I have things to fix fractures here, and I guarantee your limbs will heal well!"
"You... would be so kind?" Ou Minghan asked, enduring the pain.
"What are you saying?" Ou Tiantian said angrily. "My goal is to prevent you from running, not to break your limbs! Besides, healing wounds is also very uncomfortable! This can be considered an additional punishment for you! However, brother, I'm also a beginner at setting bones, so please be understanding!"
Ou Minghan's heart suddenly tightened. He asked anxiously, "What, what do you mean by that?"
"It means that I might set your bones crooked~" Ou Tiantian blinked her innocent eyes, her tone exceptionally sincere.
Ou Minghan felt a chill run down his spine. "Then, what if they are set crooked?"
"Brother, what's there to be so surprised about? If they're set crooked, I'll just break them again and set them again!" Ou Tiantian said dismissively.
Ou Minghan felt a coldness spread through his body, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead again. Ou Tiantian was doing this on purpose; she just wanted to use this excuse to torment him!
"But brother, you'll have to bear with it for now. I'm going to play a game. After about 24 hours, I'll come back to set your bones." Ou Tiantian stood up cheerfully, humming a tune as she walked out.
Ou Minghan immediately panicked. Doesn't this mean he has to endure another twenty-four hours of pain?
"Tianti an! Tianti an..." Ou Minghan called out urgently, but all he saw was Ou Tiantian's retreating back and the firmly closed door.

In Kyoto, Tang Jiatong's mental state was very poor.
She had many disagreements with Austin. She had offered him numerous suggestions, but Austin was very stubborn and didn't listen to her at all.
Now, the domestic version of the X Shopping website was ready, and everything was in place. This was all according to Austin's requirements, and it was now officially launching.
Tang Jiatong, feeling somewhat weary, arrived at Austin's office to report to him.
"Mr. Austin, when do you think the company website should officially launch? Should we also conduct some publicity, like advertising on major websites?" Tang Jiatong asked.
"No, no, no, Tang, there's no need for such trouble," Austin said. "The website will officially launch tomorrow. As for advertising, it's not needed at all! Your country has a saying, 'Good wine needs no bush.' What we need to do is attract loyal users through word-of-mouth reputation! Moreover, X Shopping is very famous abroad, so there's no need for promotion!"
Tang Jiatong's mouth gaped in astonishment. She wanted to say something but couldn't.
Working with Austin during this period, she always felt that what Austin said seemed reasonable, but it always led to a wrong conclusion.
