Upon seeing how determined Tang Ning was, Qin Mu could not help but reveal a sad expression. "Ning Ning, do you really want to give up on me?"

Although she had only spent a few days with Qin Mu, Tang Ning was really sad.

​​

However, even if she did not want to cut ties with Qin My, what else could she do?

She did not even think she was worthy of a man like Qin Mu. The only thing she could do was not to cause trouble for Qin Mu. Plus, she had given birth to a child 4 years ago.

"Is there love between us?" Tang Ning asked with a straight face, "Have I ever said that I love you? It seems, it's always been your decision."

Qin Mu was stunned. He could not tell whether Tang Ning's words were true or not from her indifferent gaze.

"Ning Ning, have you really never had any feelings for me?" Qin Mu's eyes turned red. This was the first time he had been so desperate to get an answer from someone.

Tang Ning replied word by word, "Not at all! I've only treated you as a friend with benefits. If you think that you and I can become boyfriend and girlfriend after sleeping together a few times, aren't you a little too naive? To be honest, I don't like you pestering me! I've already told you that I don't like you, yet you're still pestering me. Do you have any dignity?"

Ever since Qin Mu was young, all the girls wanted to be with him. He had never been rejected or humiliated by a girl. A wave of anger rose in his heart. He looked at Tang Ning with a complicated expression before he turned around and left the ward.

Upon seeing Qin Mu leave so decisively, Tang Ning felt painful in her heart. When her family members abused her, she did not even cry. However, she pulled up the blanket and covered her face as she cried out loud when Qin Mu left her.

Qin Mu arrived at Black Valley angrily. He strode over to the wheelchair in the middle of the hall and sat down. His face was dark and serious. Every step he took seemed to freeze the ground.

"Bring them here," Qin Mu said to Bai Tao.

The 3 members of the Tang family were thrown in sacks in front of Qin Mu, wriggling like three maggots. Bai Tao opened the sacks, and the 3 of them fell to their knees and begged for mercy.

However, Qin Mu was the only person in charge of this secret base built by him. He would decide the life of everyone in that place.

"Hang them up and beat them up!"

A few strong men immediately hooked the 3 of them up. First, they beat the 3 of them with sticks and whips. Their screams echoed in the hall of Black Valley until Qin Mu felt that he had seen enough.

The 3 of them were also beaten up like three salted fish, hanging there weakly.

"Stop!" Qin Mu said softly, using a tone of negotiation. "I want an arm and a leg. So, who should I start with?"

When they heard Qin Mu's words, their hearts turned cold. The 3 of them begged for mercy, especially Tang Jing. She kicked as she cried out, "Young Master Qin! Please let us go! I'll do whatever you want me to do..."

Qin Mu placed his hand on his chin as he laughed wickedly. His eyes were filled with disdain as he spoke, "Do you think you have the right to bargain with me? Or do you want to sell your worthless body to me?"

Tang Yun asked in an angry voice, "Young Master Qin, I know my eldest daughter was rejected from the marriage. Other than this, we have no grudges with you. Back then, you were the one who offered to marry my eldest daughter. Why do you have to treat us like this now?"

Qin Mu sneered as the corners of his mouth twitched. The reason was simple. It was because the Tang family had mistreated Tang Ning. Compared to all the grievances that Tang Ning had suffered over the years, he felt that a leg and an arm was too good for the Tang family. However, he really wanted to see what kind of decision they would make.

Qin Mu lowered his head and looked at his watch. "I'll give you 5 minutes to discuss. If you can't come up with a solution, then all 3 of you will lose an arm or a leg. What do you think?"

"Is there no room for negotiation?" Liu Yuan broke down and shouted, "Young Master Qin, as long as you let us go, we'll be your slaves for the rest of our lives!"

Tang Yun and Liu Yuan agreed that their daughter, Tang Jing, must not be hurt. Therefore, Liu Yuan said to Tang Yun ruthlessly, "I'll give him my leg. You'll give him your arm..."

However, she did not expect Tang Yun to be so heartless and cruel. Tang Yun actually begged Liu Yuan. "I'm the backbone of our family. Anyway, you're going to lose a leg and become a lifelong cripple. Just give him 1 of your arms too. You can't let me be crippled, right? Don't worry, I'll definitely take care of you in the future!"
