In the past few days, he had almost figured out why Mr. Lu was so calm, because in this situation, there was no point in being anxious.

If you devote your whole body to searching for Jiang Lan's whereabouts, things here will be delayed.

And what do you do after you find it?

Being threatened by Pei Qingsheng, giving shares in exchange?

Or should he drive Pei Qingsheng to the point of jumping over the wall and let him and Jiang Lan perish together?

Then Mr. Lu will have nothing to gain from this.

The more Lin Zheng thought about it, the colder he felt in his heart. At the same time, he also admired Mr. Lu's calmness and how clearly he weighed the pros and cons.

Such people are destined to achieve great things and will not be held back by feelings.

The key to choosing is to weigh.

Late at night.

The temperature in the farm dropped to one or two degrees. Jiang Lan was wearing a men's black down jacket, which should have been owned by Pei Qingsheng. It was very long and Jiang Lan wore it just down to his ankles.

There was a brazier burning in the house, Jiang Lan squatted beside the brazier, and Pei Qingsheng sat on the single sofa next to it.

Her ankles were locked again, this time not with ropes, but with chains, locked to the foot of the bed.

The length is just enough for her to move around the house.

The room was very quiet, except for the crackling sound in the brazier, and the only sound was Pei Qing turning the pages of a book.

Pei Qingsheng was reading a book, and the warm orange firelight shone on his face, making his already soft facial features become even gentler.

Jiang Lan's squatting feet were a little numb, so she quietly sat on the ground and changed to a kneeling position.

Pei Qingsheng glanced at her but said nothing.

She stared at the fire pot, the firelight dancing in her pupils, and her long eyelashes drooped, covering the emotions under her eyes.

The way she squatted at his feet really looked like a puppy, a well-behaved and obedient puppy.

Jiang Lan was in a daze when suddenly a hand fell from above his head.

Jiang Lan's neck stiffened, and she tensed up, not daring to move.

Pei Qingsheng stroked her hair and read a book. Jiang Lan closed her eyes. With him rubbing her head like this, she almost felt like a dog.

But she didn't dare to move. After all, she made him angry. In addition to mental torture, she would also face physical torture.

Jiang Lan already has experience in this regard.

You can't run away anyway, so why not make yourself feel better?

"Add some coal." Pei Qingsheng suddenly said.

Jiang Lan quickly got up, dragged the chain to the nearby wooden frame, shoveled a few pieces of coal over and poured them into the basin.

After finishing, she glanced at Pei Qingsheng.

Pei Qingsheng glanced over, Jiang Lan pursed her lips and squatted down silently.

Jiang Lan squatted, then sat when he got tired of squatting, and squatted again when he got tired of sitting.

There was a bed and a stool in the room, but Pei Qingsheng wouldn't let her sit on it.

I don't know how long it took, but Jiang Lan's eyelids trembled, and she accidentally fell forward and threw herself straight into the brazier.

Jiang Lan woke up instantly, a scalding heat wave hit her face, but it was too late to hide.

Suddenly her neck tightened and Jiang Lan's head hung steadily in the air. She slowly turned her head and saw Pei Qingsheng pinching her collar.

Pei Qingsheng pulled her back. Jiang Lan's legs and feet became weak and she collapsed on the ground. She stared blankly at the brazier, with cold sweat breaking out on her forehead.

The man laughed and said, "You can fall asleep like this. It seems like you have a really big heart."

Jiang Lan lowered his head and stared at his toes without making any movement.

He squatted down next to her again and raised her chin with his fingers, "Jiang Lan, do you still want to go back?"

Jiang Lan stared into the man's smiling eyes. She pursed her lips, not sure if he was testing her by asking this.

Therefore, she still remained silent.

"Um?"

When Jiang Lan heard his dangerous tone, he immediately shook his head.

"really?"

Jiang Lan nodded.
