Chapter 66 : Do Not Treat Her Like My Wife!
She was in a daze. After an indeterminate amount of time, the punishment finally concluded. She hazily heard the banging sound of a door being closed. That should mean that Shen Liangchuan had already left.
She relaxed both physically and mentally, and fell into a deep sleep almost immediately.
Whilst sleeping, she apparently returned to the past in her dreams.
She returned back to that happy family of four — to a time when her parents were still around.
She twitched her lips and laughed. However, a large fire suddenly rose into the sky.
She felt an intense, fiery sensation, causing her entire body to feel as though it was being grilled on top of the fire.
In her home, her dad and mom were trapped by the blaze.
She wanted to rush in and save them, but was pushed away by her younger brother, who was only 15 years old. Then, he rushed into the blazing fire!
“No, no!”
She screamed loudly until her voice became hoarse. The sound caused her to jerk awake, ending the nightmare.
Qiao Lian opened her eyes. However, she was so dazed that she could not identify where she was.
She had a severe headache and her limbs were weak and powerless.
She did not even have the strength to move her arms.
The heat emanating from her body made her realize that she had most likely contracted a fever.
She wanted to get out of bed. However, she could not produce even an ounce of strength. At this moment, the door to the room was pushed open and Zhang Hong walked in.
Qiao Lian said with a hoarse voice, “Please help me pour a glass of water.”
However, as she finished her sentence, Zhang Hong sneered at her and said, “Ms. Qiao, do you not have hands and legs? Can’t you pour a glass of water by yourself?”
She walked forward and saw the tattered clothes on the floor, along with a few balls of tissue paper. She immediately frowned, looked at Qiao Lian and scolded her maliciously. “Have you no shame, you vixen!”
She swept the objects off the floor until it was clean and then instantly turned to leave.
Qiao Lian said, “I’m sick. Please cook a bowl of noodles for me.”
“If you want to eat, then cook the food yourself! We are not your servants! People like you, who sell their bodies to tempt their husbands, are absolutely disgusting. Or did you think that just because you slept with your husband, you have the authority to order us around?”
Zhang Hong scolded her savagely, turned around and left.
As Qiao Lian heard her speak, she frowned.
However, she had absolutely no strength in her body and could not get up.
The only thing she could do was to keep her eyes closed.
If she slept for a while more, she should be fine, right?
She did not go to work for the entire day. Her cell phone rang numerous times and the calls were all being placed from the news agency. However, she was not aware of that.
She slept all the way to the evening.
During the entire day, she did not drink a single drop of water and did not eat a single grain of rice. She violently coughed a couple of times and felt some stomach acid rising. She immediately vomited on the carpet, unable to resist.
The door was once again pushed open and Zhang Hong walked in.
As she registered a sour smell, she immediately frowned and walked around the bed. When she saw the stain on the carpet, her face immediately became twisted. “You are absolutely disgusting! This is simply too dirty. Go wash this carpet!”
Qiao Lian could not even muster up the energy to speak. Thus, she closed her eyes.
She could hear the sound of Zhang Hong spreading the carpet and throwing it into the bathroom.
Then, Zhang Hong angrily walked back.
Qiao Lian opened her eyes and saw Zhang Hong forcefully grabbing her arm and dragging her down from the bed. She immediately threw her onto the cold floor of the bathroom and said, “You better wash this! Wash the carpet clean or I will not feed you!”
After Qiao Lian saw that she possessed no fear whatsoever, she uttered a single sentence with great difficulty. “Where is Shen Liangchuan?”
“Hmph, do you think that your husband will come and save you? I’m telling you now, your husband is not around for these few days. He also said before he left that we should not treat you like his wife!”
At this moment, a black sedan was parked outside the mansion. Shen Liangchuan sat in the driver’s seat. His eyes were staring at the mansion.
