Yiye Chengzhou: âPoor Meng Liang! Iâve screenshotted his expression for chat stickers.â
Aizhai Huohua: âUnfortunate boy! Heâs unable to react.â
The viewers were right. There was a time when Meng Liang had lost his ability to think and react. Although he was unable to speak, everyone could tell what he was furiously moaning at Jiang Pengji: âThis isnât what you said!â
Then, as if heaven had finally had mercy on him, he began to feel his tongue again. âNiu Shi... Youârrrre go âa hell!â
His articulation was unclear, but it was enough for Meng Hun to understand. The military chiefâs kick in his face caused his cheek to swell instantly, and Meng Liang could taste blood in his mouth. The other side of his face touched the ground and slid a distance on the rough surface.
The boy had never been treated with such violence before, as he had always been the one expending force. Thus, he spat out his broken teeth and added, âYou beoble! Youârrrre all go âa hell!â
âHow dare you speak to the langjun this way! Meng Liang, today Iâm avenging for my wife and daughter with your blood. You are the one whoâs going to hell!â The man took a wide step forward and bunched Meng Liangâs hair. He pulled the strands so hard he could have torn the skin off his head.
Jiang Pengji held the bamboo slips in front of her curved lips. Her eyes were glittering like stars.
Standing on the other side of the room, she moved her lips to speak to Meng Liang silently. Goodbye, Meng Liang!
Yiye Chengzhou: âAww! How can the host be so cunning, so dangerous, yet so enticing at the same time?â
Mainuhaide Xiaohuachai: âHer smile stole my breath!â
Shouxing Taidi: âIâve been watching quietly behind the screen until the host smiled. It feels like Cupid has shot me with his golden arrow.â
Huxiang Shanghaiya: âI have a boyfriend, but I think Iâm becoming a lesbian.â
Baigui Yexing: âThatâs nothing. Iâm becoming less gay because of her.â
While Jiang Pengjiâs fans were changing their sexual orientation for her, Meng Hunâs heart was pumping as the moment of his revenge had finally arrived. He was more bloodthirsty than usual, yet he managed to control himself from any barbaric acts.
âKilling him right away isnât enough,â said some of his brothers. Meng Liang needed to have a taste of suffering before the end of his life.@@novelbin@@
Meng Hun shook his head. âJust because he has treated my family mercilessly doesnât mean we should follow what heâs done. Besides, Iâm not killing him for pleasureââno amount of torture to him can bring me happiness.â
His companions had always found him a sensible man. The current situation was no different.
âStill, I feel like we should do more.â At least there should have been another kind of punishment.
Meng Hun thought for a moment and then asked in a low voice, âDo you think torture will make him feel remorse?â
The soldier shook his head. Everyone knew Meng Liang was incorrigible.
Meng Hun fell into contemplation. At last he said, âMeng Liang dreads death. Weâll kill him slowly by cutting his wrists and letting him feel his blood streaming out... Iâll watch the whole process.â
Jiang Pengji turned to leave the room. She was not interested in the scene of a loyal, honest man taking revenge with cruelty and slight madness.
Ever since Jiang Pengji started her first semi-interactive stream, the System had refused to talk to her because of their previous argument. It could not keep quiet for long, however.
âHost... Iâm scared of you.â
Jiang Pengji wore a smile. If that was true, it would not have irked her so many times. It was merely trying to throw her off guard so that it could control her the way it had done to the other hosts.
Jiang Pengjiâs mood was worsened, and she said without changing her expressions, âIf youâve ever met a villain thatâs not scary, then thatâs no villain at all.â
Although there were two houses between her and the storage room, she could still hear Meng Liangâs petrified shrieks.
In the next second, the unaffected Meng Hun said, âQuiet!â
Jiang Pengji lazily leaned on a pillar. âSystem, start the poll.â
System: âOur Host, Jiang Pengji, has finished her first semi-interactive stream. Are you pleased with the show? (A) Yes (B) Not really (C) Not at all.â
That time, Jiang Pengji said nothing to the audience. She cared nothing about the result.
Yet, there were a lot of viewers calling for positive votes for her. Those who had given a high rate before continued to choose (A), as they knew the result could affect her future shows.
The outcome was much better than Jiang Pengji had expected: Out of ten thousand viewers, 9,235 expressed satisfaction, 622 chose âNot really,â while the remaining 143 disliked the stream. The overall rate was 92.35 percent, a few percentages lower than the last time, but still very high.
Jiang Pengji could only obtain a Silver Chest. When she heard the notification, she immediately opened it. That time, she needed no consultation with Master Liaochen.
Inside the chest was a card. Instead of a free level up card, she had drawn something with a sexy, naked woman on it, whose perfect shape could seduce any male in the world.
Jiang Pengji: â...â
She was glad that the audience could not see her award, or else they would mock her again. She looked at the caption, which contained some censored, revealing words...
