Chapter 565: Chapter 565: Teasing

"Stop with this nonsense, don’t play such dangerous games next time, alright? They didn’t bully you, did they?" Xu Ke held Wen Xin with one hand, while using the other to smooth Ariel’s frizzy hair.

Ariel wanted to say she wasn’t bullied, but looking at Xu Ke’s eyes, the words turned into grievances as soon as she opened her mouth, "You don’t know how bad they were. They forced me to drink a lot, brought me to this hellhole, and wouldn’t let me puke. They threw me on the bed, and that old man tried to take off my clothes while she wanted to record a video. They said they’d blackmail me into becoming their puppet. Oh, and they also talked about getting a cage to lock me in, putting me up for auction in the underground market, and selling me to the highest bidder."

Ariel’s words made Xu Ke’s face darken. Even though he knew there might be exaggeration in Ariel’s words, he couldn’t help but feel angry, especially when he heard that Wen Xin’s father tried to strip Ariel while Wen Xin wanted to record it.

Here, Xu Ke was getting angry, while Wen Xin and Wen’s father, who seemed like he’d had his toes crushed, were impressed by Ariel’s ability to lie through her teeth.

"Don’t listen to her nonsense, she’s making it all up. We never said anything like that," Wen’s father said, enduring the pain in his body, seeing Xu Ke about to choke Wen Xin’s neck, he quickly spoke up.

"Even though you didn’t say it directly, that’s what you meant. I could sense it. Don’t bother denying it," Ariel retorted in Wen’s father’s direction, and after saying it, she burrowed into Xu Ke’s embrace, as if saying those words had drained all her courage, and she urgently needed to return to the little haven that made her feel safe and warm.

Wen family father and daughter were stunned by Ariel’s shameless act of lying without blinking and feigning weakness.

"Calm down, don’t be angry, I’ll make it right for you," Xu Ke said, patting Ariel’s head.
