They were taken off the spaceship and locked in a basement. This time, they didn't take Shi Le away.
Lu Ziyue didn't let Shi Sheng see and checked Shi Le's body herself. Shi Le let out a weak cry of pain. Shi Sheng's heart ached.
"Mom …" Shi Sheng looked at Shi Le who had fallen asleep. "Sister, she …"
A strange smile appeared on Lu Ziyue's pale face. She hugged Shi Le and swayed gently. "Baby, your sister is fine."
Shi Sheng had never seen Lu Ziyue smile like that. She was so angry that she had to suppress her anger.
"Baby, we have to find a way to escape." Lu Ziyue lowered her voice.
Shi Le stood in front of the door and looked outside. There was no one outside. She sat cross-legged beside Lu Ziyue. "How are we going to escape?"
The people who protected them were dead. They could only rely on themselves now.
She didn't even know where this place was. How could they escape?
She didn't know where her father was either.
Could he find them?
He must be able to.
"Let's observe for a while more." Lu Ziyue's eyes were firm. "Don't worry. Mom will protect you and your sister even if I die."
"I will protect Mom too." Shi Sheng's little face was full of determination, just like when she was young.
Lu Ziyue forced a smile and patted her head. "Our baby has grown up."
The memories from many years ago seemed to be clearly recalled in her mind. Who would have thought that they would encounter such a thing after so many years?
…
Lu Ziyue and Shi Sheng didn't have a chance to escape. They were brought into a room.
Shi Mu was in that room. His regenerative limbs had been removed and he was lying on the ground in a sorry state. The moment he saw Lu Ziyue and Shi Sheng, the dying man's eyes suddenly burst with hatred.
"Don't blame your wife and children." Shi Mu sat up from the ground and squeezed these words through his teeth.
Shi Sheng broke free from the people who restrained her and ran to Shi Mu's side. Her lips opened a few times before she called out, "Dad."
Lu Ziyue and Shi Le also ran over. She hugged Shi Mu and cried bitterly. All her strength disappeared when she saw her beloved.
Shi Le's expression was still a little sluggish. Perhaps Lu Ziyue's crying had affected her as she began to cry as well.
"Shi Mu, shouldn't you thank me for reuniting your family?" The man sitting at the head of the table looked down at them. "If it weren't for me, you might never see them again."
Shi Mu protected Shi Sheng and Lu Ziyue in his arms. Even if he was in a sorry state, he had to fulfill his duty as a father and a husband to protect his wife and children.
"If you have anything, come at me. They're innocent." Shi Mu met the man's gaze.
"Hahaha, it's not impossible to let them go. You can kneel and beg me." The man raised his head and laughed.
Shi Sheng remembered clearly that it was the first time she had felt hatred towards that man.
But there was nothing she could do other than hate.
She watched as Shi Mu knelt down amidst the laughter of those people. Because his regenerative limb was gone, when he knelt down, he was in so much pain that his face turned pale, but those people were even happier.
"Shi Mu, I really want to let you go too. After all, you've begged me. Unfortunately …" The man spread his hands. "Someone wants your family to never appear again, so I can only apologize."
He waved his hand. "Take them away."
"You …" Shi Mu was furious. However, before he could say anything, he was kicked in the stomach by someone beside him. Shi Mu's body slid backward and only stopped when he hit the wall.
They were forcefully taken away. Before they left, Shi Sheng stared at the man for a few seconds and imprinted his face in her heart.
At that time, she swore that as long as she was not dead, she would definitely come and take revenge on him.
…
They were brought to a planet. This was an energy planet, but 80% of the energy planet's environment was very bad. The people who came here were either too poor to eat or people who had committed crimes.
This energy planet was very hot. Standing on the ground could cause blisters to form on their feet.
Perhaps in order to give Shi Mu the ability to move, those people attached Shi Mu's regenerative limb to him. However, with every step Shi Mu took, he felt as if someone was stabbing his legs with needles. It was difficult for him to even walk normally, let alone fight back.
Those people left them behind and left. At this moment, the person standing in front of them was the manager of this energy planet.
He sized them up slightly pickily, as if he was not satisfied with such old, weak, and disabled people. However, in the end, he waved his hand. "Start working tomorrow. If you don't work, don't think about eating or running. Once you're here, you can forget about leaving this place for the rest of your lives."
Shi Mu seemed to know that the manager was telling the truth. He did not resist at all. He held Shi Sheng's hand with one hand and Lu Ziyue, who was carrying Shi Le with the other, and followed the person who brought them to their residence.
"Pfft, he's really lucky with women. He actually has such a beautiful woman following him." The manager cursed indignantly.
"Since she's here, how can she still be his woman?" The person beside him immediately flattered.
"Hahaha, you're right." The manager looked at Lu Ziyue who had walked away with bad intentions. How could the woman here compare to her figure and skin? "She's really a f * cking stunner. Bring her over tonight and let I have a taste of her."
"Okay."
…
The living environment here was also very bad. In a simple dormitory, there were no less than thirty people squeezed together. The men and women were not separated. Under the stuffy weather, the smell of the dormitory was indescribable.
There were only a few people in the dormitory at this time. When they entered, these people immediately focused their attention on them.
Their eyes were numb, as if they were looking at an object.
There were only two bunks left in the dormitory, and they were in the worst location. Shi Mu's face darkened as he tidied up and placed Shi Le on the bunk. "Baby, come here."
Shi Le walked to Shi Mu's side. Shi Mu held her hand and carefully reminded her, "You have to be vigilant at all times here. Don't trust anyone, don't eat anything given by anyone, and don't leave your parents' sight. Understand?"
Shi Sheng nodded.
Shi Mu looked around. The people who were watching them just now had already laid back down. No one was paying attention to them anymore.
Shi Mu searched his body for a while and took out a sharpened knife from somewhere. He wrapped the blade and handed it to Shi Sheng. "Take it. Do you still remember what I taught you?"
The knife was cold. Even in such a hot weather, it still carried a chill. Shi Sheng held it tightly. "I remember."
In the past, Shi Mu would take Shi Sheng to learn martial arts when he was free. However, he was busy later on and this matter was delayed. Shi Sheng only learned a little. It was not a problem to beat up a hooligan, but it was completely unrealistic to fight with those people from before. Therefore, Shi Sheng remained silent and did not resist.
