Shi Sheng carried Shi Le back to the dormitory. The woman wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she only said, "I'll go talk to the foreman. Hurry up and clean up. Don't let anyone find out."
Although it was not illegal to kill people here, most of the people here were in groups. If someone killed someone, someone might take the opportunity to cause trouble.
Shi Sheng and Shi Le were two girls. Brother Hong used to protect them. Now that Brother Hong was gone, who would be afraid of them?
After the woman left, Shi Sheng carefully looked at Shi Le's body. The familiar marks reminded Shi Sheng of the incident more than a year ago.
Shi Sheng's mind exploded with a bang and she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.
When they first arrived here, Shi Le often had nightmares. Every time, it was Lu Ziyue who comforted her. Shi Sheng only thought that it was caused by the environment here.
During that time, she always saw Lu Ziyue holding Shi Le with a gloomy face. However, whenever they met, Lu Ziyue would show the gentleness a mother should have.
"Mom …"
"Sister?" Shi Le grabbed Shi Sheng's lapel so tightly that her fingertips turned white. "When will Mom come back?"
Shi Sheng tried hard to recall the day Lu Ziyue left. However, she did not hear any useful information except for the words "distinguished guests" that she occasionally heard.
However …
Not long after those people left, Shi Mu was in trouble, together with Brother Hong who protected them.
She knew that she did not blame Lu Ziyue when she left. She was just a normal child. Even in difficult times, she wanted to be accompanied by her parents.
However, at this time, she suddenly realized that Lu Ziyue left … with the determination to die.
She was going to avenge Shi Le.
Lu Ziyue loved her and Shi Le. She would not give up on them just because of hardships.
Shi Sheng hated herself for waking up a little late. She was more eager to leave this place and find Lu Ziyue. She had lost her father. She did not want to lose her mother.
The next period of time was the most difficult time for them. In the face of those men with bad intentions, Shi Sheng had to protect Shi Le. Sometimes she was beaten black and blue, but she would never let go of the knife in her hand.
Half a year later, under her perfect plan, she escaped from that place with Shi Le.
But as soon as she left, before she could rejoice, she was brought back to the Shi family.
Yes, it was that Shi family.
The moment she was caught, she realized that her perfect plan was nothing more than a ploy by these people. Even the woman who helped them was nothing more than a spy they planted. She was the one they wanted.
She and Shi Le were separated.
The first time she met the Shi family head, she was locked up in the Shi family's prison cell. There was nothing there. She was locked inside. It was so quiet that she was about to go crazy, but she gritted her teeth and endured it.
She couldn't break down. Ji Le still needed her. The scars on her hands were all caused by her trying to stay awake.
"Shi Sheng." Shi Xuan looked very young, but he was almost three hundred years old. In terms of seniority, Shi Sheng had to call him grandfather.
He stood outside the cell and looked at Shi Sheng like a ruler looking down on an ant.
Shi Sheng pounced on him, his eyes bloodshot. "Where is my sister?"
"Don't worry, she's safe." Shi Xuan waved his hand and a holographic screen appeared. Shi Le was lying on a bed with many people in white coats around her. They were doing something.
"What are you doing to her?" Shi Sheng roared. "Don't touch her! Come at me! Don't touch her! "
After being locked up in a quiet room for a long time, Shi Sheng was about to break down when he saw such a scene.
"Don't cry, don't cry." Shi Xuan turned off the screen and comforted him softly. "I'm just checking your sister's body. I won't hurt her."
"What do you want?" Shi Sheng glared at Shi Xuan with red eyes. "What do you want?"
"Don't be agitated, little girl." Shi Xuan's voice was clear and bewitching. "I just want to ask you for a small favor."
Shi Xuan's small favor was to ask Shi Sheng to open a door. The method was very simple. He just needed to let his blood out.
However, the result was not as expected. The door did not move at all.
Shi Xuan frowned and thought for a long time. He did not get angry and did not do anything to Shi Sheng. Instead, he returned Shi Le to her and allowed her to live in the Shi family.
Although it was called living, it was just a disguised imprisonment.
The Shi family was too big. Shi Sheng did not dare to fight against it rashly. Her and Shi Le's life in the Shi family was still miserable. The Shi family's geniuses and other people rejected and made things difficult for them.
They would still starve if they lived here, and those people would take away their rations.
This kind of life lasted for more than half a year. She and Shi Le were also sent to the Shi family's assessment site during the triennial assessment.
That year, Shi Sheng was twelve years old and Shi Le was seven years old.
The assessment site was a planet. It was built completely according to the Shi family's wishes and was full of danger.
The other children had already been taught by the Shi family. Even if they did not pass the assessment, they had at least a 50% chance of survival.
However, Shi Sheng and Shi Le were different. Although Shi Sheng had secretly learned some things, there were still many things that she did not know. As soon as she entered the assessment site, she and Shi Le encountered danger.
It was a huge interstellar beast. Standing in front of it, she and Shi Le were as small as ants.
Shi Le was completely scared out of his wits. Shi Sheng dragged Shi Le and ran. The interstellar beast chased after them, and its huge body crushed the surrounding vegetation.
Just as Shi Sheng was about to lure the interstellar beast away and let Shi Le escape, a little girl in red suddenly appeared. She did something, and the interstellar beast roared and ran away.
"Did you fall behind?" The little girl jumped in front of Shi Sheng. She looked to be about the same age as her and spoke with a hint of playfulness. "She's so young. She's not even twelve years old, right? How did she get in? "
Shi Sheng protected Shi Le behind her and was full of vigilance. The little girl thought for a moment and pointed at her. "You're Shi Sheng, right?"
Shi Sheng frowned. She had never seen this person in the Shi family.
The little girl in red stretched out her hand and smiled. "My name is Shi Yu. You might not have seen me before. I used to live with my parents somewhere else. I only came back because of the assessment."
Shi Yu …
The eldest daughter of the Shi family.
She knew her. It was rumored that she was the most talented person in the Shi family. Her father was Shi Xuan's eldest son, but for some reason, her family did not live in the main house.
Shi Yu, the eldest daughter, could only be seen during the New Year or some important family activities.
However, there were many rumors about her in the family.
Shi Sheng hesitated for a moment and reached out to shake her hand. However, he quickly withdrew his hand and protected Shi Le behind him.
Shi Yu did not care and said to herself, "The interstellar beasts here only look big, but they're not difficult to deal with …"
For some reason, Shi Yu followed Shi Sheng along the way. With her around, they didn't encounter much danger along the way.
For a young lady like her, the elders had already told her what was in the assessment site. Even if it was different every year, the experience of the elders was enough for them to deal with it.
