CHAPTER 136: CHAPTER 136: SOLD OFF

When the guests had left, only the man and Lu Ting remained in the house.

At this time, Lu Ting was still tied to the bed.

Her skin was covered with marks from the aftermath of passion. Her eyes were vacant, like a soulless doll.

The man looked at Lu Ting and said viciously, "Stick with me, Zhang Daqiang, and give me a few big, chubby sons. I won’t mistreat you, but if you don’t behave, I’ll definitely kill you."

After saying this, Zhang Daqiang brought the food to Lu Ting.

He untied the ropes binding Lu Ting.

Her wrists were marked with blood scars due to the tight binding.

Once freed, Lu Ting suddenly got up and pushed Zhang Daqiang away.

But given Zhang Daqiang’s physique, she couldn’t push him if she wanted to.

Zhang Daqiang grabbed Lu Ting’s wrist directly and threw her hard onto the bed, slapping her twice with force.

Blood instantly seeped from the corners of her mouth: "Seems like if I don’t teach you a lesson, you really think I’m easygoing."

After saying this, Zhang Daqiang went ahead and tore off Lu Ting’s clothes.

Her clothes were already in tatters because of the morning’s events, and now Zhang Daqiang ripped them apart again.

They couldn’t be worn anymore.

Lu Ting couldn’t resist Zhang Daqiang at all; she could only let him have his way with her.

Her throat was hoarse from shouting long before.

Once it was over, Lu Ting lay on the bed barely clothed, the tear tracks on her face already dried.

"Remember to eat the food, if I come back and you haven’t eaten, forget about getting out of bed for the rest of your life."

Saying this, Zhang Daqiang got dressed and headed out.

Lu Ting slowly got up after an unknown amount of time had passed, looking at the already cold dishes beside the bed.

Her heart felt cold to the core at that moment.

She didn’t believe Liu Fenglan would be so cruel as to sell her off, didn’t believe Lu Jianguo and Lu Hao would really stand by and do nothing.

She didn’t believe it.

But no one had come to save her so far.

No one at all.

Could it be that Liu Fenglan really did sell her?

Sold her to such a worthless man?

...

"Why didn’t you tell us sooner?" Lu Jianguo began arguing with Liu Fenglan when he got home.

"What’s the use of telling you?" Liu Fenglan said with irritation.

Song Jiajia, having eaten and drunk her fill, had already returned to her room to sleep.

Ever since she got pregnant, she tended to sleep a lot.

Lu Hao was feeling annoyed listening to Liu Fenglan and Lu Jianguo’s argument.

"This is Xiao Ting’s lifelong matter, shouldn’t it be discussed?" Lu Jianguo said, suppressing his anger.

Liu Fenglan: "I’m finding a good man for Xiao Ting; if I told you, could you find one?"

Lu Jianguo was choked by this.

After a while, he said, "What good man? That man is so old and yet didn’t have a wife, isn’t there something wrong with him? Besides, he looks very vicious, what if he hits Xiao Ting?"

Liu Fenglan didn’t care: "What’s the matter? If she gets hit, it’s because Xiao Ting doesn’t listen. And besides, does it matter if he beats her to death?"

Lu Jianguo felt Liu Fenglan was too much this time.

But he didn’t dare to speak directly about it.

"Anyway, the matter is done, Xiao Ting is now his person, don’t make any foolish moves, I’m going back to sleep. Getting up early, I’m exhausted."

With that, Liu Fenglan turned and went back to her room to sleep.

Lu Jianguo looked at the closed door, feeling helpless and regretful.

Seeing this, Lu Hao approached and said, "Grandpa, just leave it alone, I’m sure Grandma wouldn’t carelessly find someone for Xiao Ting. Maybe that man just looks a bit fierce, maybe he’ll be good to Xiao Ting."

It was unclear whether Lu Hao was comforting Lu Jianguo or consoling himself for ignoring it all.

Lu Jianguo looked at Lu Hao and said meaningfully, "Haozi, did you know about this all along?"

Lu Hao’s mild reaction indicated he might have known about it earlier.

Lu Hao pursed his lips, a hint of guilt passing through his eyes.

Lu Jianguo looked at Lu Hao with heartbreak: "Haozi, how could you do this? She’s your sister, are you just going to watch her marry such a person?"

Lu Hao explained, "When Grandma told me, she didn’t say it was someone like this."

Lu Jianguo: "You can’t just agree so casually either. Xiao Ting is only eighteen, there’s no need to rush her into marriage."

Lu Hao kept his lips pursed, remaining silent.

Lu Jianguo continued, "I just glanced at that man today and knew he wasn’t a good sort. Your sister might suffer marrying him."

Lu Hao mumbled, "Can’t be."

Lu Ting was so sensible, she surely wouldn’t provoke that man. As long as she didn’t provoke him, she wouldn’t get hit.

"How can you say it can’t be, can’t you see?"

Lu Hao actually saw, he was just trying to comfort himself.

To lessen his sense of guilt.

"Oh, Grandpa, now that the deed is done, there’s not much we can do, so let’s leave it be. After all, Xiao Ting has to get married sooner or later; instead of having a hard time at our place, why not marry early and enjoy life sooner?

You saw that man’s family conditions aren’t bad; there are no parents, so Xiao Ting doesn’t have to look after in-laws. Isn’t that better?

This way, Xiao Ting can eat meat every day, better than living at our place."

Lu Jianguo, with his head down, smoked a cigarette, lost in thought.

Seeing that Lu Jianguo didn’t speak, Lu Hao turned and went back to his room.

The yard was instantly quiet.

Only the sound of Lu Jianguo puffing on his cigarette could be heard.

When Lu Hao returned to his room, Song Jiajia was already asleep.

Lu Hao looked at Song Jiajia’s graceless sleeping posture, with traces of annoyance and disgust in his eyes.

Suddenly, the image of a figure he saw on the street yesterday flashed through his mind.

Yesterday he saw Sang Yu on the street, and Sang Yu seemed even more beautiful.

She was wearing a black and white long dress with a short black jacket outside.

Her slender waist seemed like it could be grasped with one hand.

What a shame, had I known earlier, I wouldn’t have swapped.

If he hadn’t switched, Sang Yu should have belonged to him.

While thinking about seeing Sang Yu that day, his body involuntarily reacted.

He pushed the sleeping Song Jiajia.

Song Jiajia grumbled, "What are you doing?"

Lu Hao took off his clothes, intending to strip Song Jiajia.

Awakened, Song Jiajia slapped him in the face, "Bastard, I’m still pregnant, are you an animal?"

Lu Hao stopped immediately, forgetting Song Jiajia was still pregnant, he was initially planning to make do.

"Sorry, I forgot." Lu Hao said, putting on his clothes.

Song Jiajia looked at Lu Hao with disgust, even if she wasn’t pregnant, she’d never allow Lu Hao to touch her again.

She felt sick.
