Zhou Ruo'an was woken by a bucket of chilling cold water.

The bone-piercing cold was like tens of thousands of unknown bugs, crazily nibbling away at every inch of her skin.

She struggled to open her eyes, the bright light stinging her eyes.

Zhou Ruo'an narrowed her eyes. She had regained most of her consciousness.

She looked around and found herself in a cold, damp dungeon.

She frowned. She died in a car accident. What was this situation? Transmigration?

Zhou Ruo'an felt a splitting headache as she thought about it. With great difficulty, she gritted her teeth and accepted the memories that did not belong to her. When she opened her eyes, she saw an old man and a young woman at the entrance of the cell.

Beside their feet, there was even a bucket of water.

"Second Miss, this old servant will go get another bucket of water?"

The one who spoke was Second Aunt's old servant who accompanied her. Second Aunt had always treated the main person of her body like a thorn in his side, and the death of the main person was also related to them.

Zhou Ruo'an narrowed her eyes dangerously. In this world, there was no one who could escape despite provoking her!

Zhou Ruoyan, right? Heh!

She stood up and staggered to her feet, relying on her powerful thoughts to get rid of all the pain in her body.

"Oh, this little bastard can still stand up?" It seems like my whip is not fierce enough! " Zhou Ruoyan's arrogant face had a mocking smile on it. She took the bloody whip from the old servant's hands and walked towards Zhou Ruo'an with her chin held high.

Zhou Ruo'an replied with a sneer. Killing intent burst out of her eyes.

However, she was well aware that with her current body covered in wounds, she wouldn't be able to kill a chicken with just her body. It would be very difficult to kill the two of them. The only thing she could do was scare the two of them away and search for other methods.

With her right leg that was ripped open, Zhou Ruo'an viciously kicked Zhou Ruoyan in the chest, sending her flying.

For a moment, Zhou Ruoyan couldn't take it anymore and actually suffered internal injuries as she spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Second Miss!" The old servant's heart trembled as he hurriedly went forward to help her up.

Zhou Ruoyan was flabbergasted. This b * tch who allowed her to code in the past, why did she seem like a different person today?

The dull pain in her heart forced Zhou Ruoyan to let her old servant take her away first. Before she left, she didn't forget to speak harshly.

"Bitch, the next time I come, will be your death! Just you wait! " Her words caused her to cough a few times in embarrassment, but she did not forget to continue with her threats. "Auntie Lu, find someone to tear off her face in a while!"

The old servant quickly agreed and led Zhou Ruoyan out of the dungeon.

After the two of them left, the dungeon returned to its previous peaceful state.

Zhou Ruo'an fell to the ground. The pain all over her body was like a hungry wolf pouncing back at the moment her tensed nerves relaxed. It made her lose consciousness for a while.

Second Madame had used the original cellar beneath the run-down temple on the outskirts of the city to reconstruct the dungeon. She knew that there was only Second Aunt and her daughter and their trusted aides in charge, and that there was no one around to guard it. Therefore, Zhou Ruo'an was not afraid that the other party would send people to cause trouble for her. After all, her kick had really caused Zhou Ruoyan to vomit blood, and right now, Zhou Mansion was burning with anxiety as they wanted to cure Zhou Ruoyan's injury. They did not have the time to take care of themselves for a short period of time.

Leaning against the wall, Zhou Ruo'an began to review her previous life.

Ever since she was born, she had abandoned her baby and was sold to the base to be killed. She had become a true golden killer, and that was when she started her life of dealing with death. As for the reason why she died, it was because of the internal strife within the organization. She had become an abandoned child.

Zhou Ruo'an mocked him with a smile. Her fate was really bad. Even if she were to live another life, she still wouldn't be able to escape such a miserable fate.

The original owner of this body was the first-born daughter of Shang Shu Manor. Unfortunately, her own mother didn't live up to her expectations, and as soon as she was born, she was beaten to death by the new Second Aunt. As for her, because she had taken over the position as the eldest daughter, she had become a thorn in the side for Second Aunt.

After living for more than ten years, Zhou Ruoyan's second concubine and Zhou Ruoyan finally couldn't sit still anymore. They attacked her because her identity as the first-in-line daughter obstructed her path as a wangfei. Afterwards, the main character was tortured to death and she took over this body.

Zhou Ruo'an was not a pushover. Her previous life's experience had made her a ruthless evil woman. If people didn't offend her, then I wouldn't offend them. This would be her lifelong creed. Now that she had become the first-born daughter of Shang Shu Manor, the good days for Second Aunt and her daughter could be considered to have come to an end.

Zhou Ruo'an looked around the dungeon. In addition to the lock at the passage leading to the ground, there was also a lock at the cell that trapped her.

These locks were not difficult to pry out. She clenched her teeth and pulled out an extremely thin hairpin from her messy hair and quickly solved the first lock. The passageway was locked on the outside and was separated by a wooden door. Zhou Ruo'an pushed it open and found that the crack was too narrow for her to pick the lock from outside. Thus, she had no choice but to give up.

She noticed that the bond between the wooden door and the earthen wall had loosened. If she were to use all her strength, there would definitely be a day where she would crash into the wall. However … Zhou Ruo'an weighed her body and estimated that before she could knock the door open, she would have to go see the King of Hell.

Just as she decided to think of another way, the long and narrow passageway suddenly echoed with the inaudible sound of footsteps, as well as the overwhelming smell of blood.

Zhou Ruo'an frowned as she focused on what was happening outside.

After confirming that the other party was not from the Second Aunt's side, Zhou Ruo'an pushed the wooden door open.

"Who is it!"

It was a man's voice.

The other party seemed to be deliberately lowering his voice, but it was not hard to tell that it was an extremely pleasant male voice.

Zhou Ruo'an looked through the crack in the door. It was pitch black, so she couldn't tell what was going on.

After a moment's thought, she took out her hairpin from the crack in the door.

"Can you pick locks?"

The man outside the door was stunned.

Zhou Ruo'an frowned. "Help me unlock the door. I'll help you get rid of the pursuers."

The man froze for a moment before he took the hairpin and looked at Zhou Ruo'an through the gap in the door, his eyes full of suspicion.

"How do you know?"

Zhou Ruo'an chuckled. "You're seriously injured, yet you hid here instead of finding someone to heal yourself. Clearly, you were trying to hide from the pursuers."

When the man heard this, he remained silent for a moment. After hearing the footsteps above his head, the man quickly unlocked the door.

The wooden door was pushed open, and the dim light from the dungeon shone into the passageway. She could clearly see the man's face.

Surprisingly, that person was so handsome. Even Zhou Ruo'an, who was used to seeing all kinds of beautiful men, couldn't help but be distracted.

However, the moment she was dazed, Zhou Ruo'an quickly pulled the man in through the door and said, "Hide in the grass."

After that, she dragged her body, which was full of wounds, to the entrance of the tunnel and laid down on the ground to start climbing the stairs.

"Save me …" "Save …"

The weak sound reached the ground, and the wooden board that separated the tunnel from the ground was immediately opened.
