Pure Darkness

Chapters 23.2

On the day Zhang Jufang was brought home, the atmosphere was very quiet. Ming Lang sat on the chair next to Yao Yuange's chair, not speaking. Ming Yue was at a loss as to what to do. Zhang Jufang was not someone who was easy to deal with. She sweetly called them ‘girl sister’, then, after dinner, pulled Yao Yuange's arm and returned to the room with her. Although there were some walls between them, Ming Lan could still hear her excessive crying.

That night, Yao Yuange and Zhang Jufang rolled around on the straw until late at night, then he returned to Ming Lan's room. At that moment, Ming Lan's heart was stirred with – emotions she went through Yao Yuange wouldn't go to him that night. Then, Yao Yuange hooked up**** with him aggressively, until he begged for mercy. He laughed as he sat by the side of the bed, and took the medicinal pills he had obtained from Thailand, which were good for men. He then said to her, “Ming Lan, I don't treat all women the same. I'll always consider and acknowledge you as my wife because you look after this family. How can they compare to you?”

From then on, a strange sense of superiority slowly overpowered Ming Lan's heart. After all, which rich man doesn't play around with women? Other families are full of divorce, quarrels, and betrayal. Yao Yuange was extremely wealthy, and had so many women interested in him, but he made a clear distinction between his wife and his mistress. He is truly a role model that must be respected by everyone. As for that other woman, what difference would it make if the others entered? Shouldn't they still respect him and be under his authority? His name is on the marriage certificate, haha.

The new Yao family, with one wife and 4 mistresses, was born in the ancient Yao family residence, like a new family clan. Outside the door was the bustle of the vibrant modern world, but inside was their own small world. The Yao family's principles and regulations were extremely strict. Only maids were allowed in the residence; every day, they would wake up, have breakfast, have lunch, have dinner, turn off the lights in unison and sleep; Yao Yuange would choose whose room to sleep in as he wished. The women in each room harbored different thoughts. Moreover, Ming Lan, as the second commander of Yao Yuange, was the guardian of this order. In this huge courtyard, only Ming Lan was happy every day. She drives her stylish Audition, she handles the huge income earned from the bar, she,

……

Yao Yuange first noticed the girl at the bar. When she gave a hint about him to Ming Lan afterward, even she, who was already used to the romance and sexual lust nature of her husband, was shocked. This girl is very young, only 20 years old. Her appearance was not bad, but she seemed to be reclusive, and had no friends.

Ming Lan said, “Dia. . . I'm afraid it might be difficult. ”

Yao Yuange downed the wine in his glass in one gulp, hugged Ming Lan's waist and whispered, “I'll sleep with her tonight. I haven't felt so excited for a long time! You are looking for a way to solve it. When you're done, I'll buy you a new bag that you're after.” After speaking, he laughed, then got up to take on the role of the bar owner. He walked over to greet the girl, and even gave her a bowl of popcorn. The girl didn't understand why, and she looked up confusedly to ask, “Thank you, Uncle. Are you the boss of this bar? ”

At that moment, Ming Lan saw a ray in her husband's eyes. “Oh yes. bar . . . opened by Uncle.”

Then he turned his head, glanced at Ming Lan, and walked out.

Ming Lan's heart thumped, and she suddenly understood. No one can stop him. Even if he did not do it for her, he would find a way to get what he wanted. This man's ego is like a blown balloon. Over time, slowly, its size swells. Finally this time, no one could suppress him.

Ming Lan tricked Tang Lianlian into the car, and persuaded her to drink water that had been drugged. The bar has a lot of crooks mixed in with honest customers.* So, the procurement of this drug is not a problem.

*T/N (yu long hun zha) – lit. fish and dragon mixed into one

That night, Yao Yuange achieved his wish.

Tang Lianlian stayed in the basement in the Yao residence for 5 days. He was drugged all the time and was always in a state of chaos and daze. At night, Yao Yuange was going down. In the daytime, Ming Lan and Ming Yue, as well as the extremely honest and sincere Zhao Xia, would take turns advising him to give up, “See, we are all women living with him, and our lives are fine. You are an ordinary university graduate, your family is poor, what jobs can you find? Become a member of the Yao Family, and you will never worry about anything in your life. ”

At first, Tang Lianlian simply continued to cry. Finally, on the sixth day, he nodded, “Alright, I will marry him.” After that, he was completely obedient and obedient to Yao Yuange, even having the zeal to be jealous, and demanding things like money, apartments, cars, and so on. This made Yao Yuange so happy that he gave an expensive gift to every wife. Seeing all this, it seemed like Wife no. 6 was about to enter the household.

They even invited some of his old friends and served wine. As this was the first time Yao Yuange had married a young wife, and a student at that moment, he felt as if he was welcoming his second spring.

Who would have thought, not a few days after the wedding, when everyone had loosened their guard, Tang Lianlian fled!

As it turned out, this little lady was very smart, and was also able to endure patiently. He did not want to live such a life, and was just biding his time to execute his escape plan.

Only Ming Lan continued to watch over him closely. After all, he was a student and should have knowledge and experience, thus causing Ming Lan to feel uncertain and anxious. Therefore, he urged the servants to watch over Tang Lianlian secretly.

It happened one morning, when the sky was still dark. Tang Lianlian had only escaped from Yao's residence for 5 minutes before her flight was discovered. There were too few people on the streets, so he could not ask for help. When he tried to escape to the police station, his path was blocked by members of the Yao family. He could only go to the mountain. In the end, he was still captured and brought back. Yao Yuange dragged his hair into the basement.

Actually, it wasn't because he didn't meet anyone on the street. She had met two people, but both of them, upon hearing that it was the Yao family situation, decided to stay away from the situation despite Tang Lianlian's pleas and cries. So, he could only continue running until he had nowhere to go, and once again fell into the demon lair.

That night, everyone in the Yao family felt uneasy, as Yao Yuange and Tang Lianlian were alone in the basement all night long.

That night, Ming Lan rolled around on the bed without being able to sleep. She knew her husband would be furious. In her heart, she blamed Tang Lianlian for deceiving them and bringing chaos to the family. However, when she closed her eyes, the shadow of Tang Lianlian's face as she was dragged into the basement continued to face her. Why did he feel such a heavy pressure that it made him gasp for breath?

……

Yao Yuange looked at him with a strange expression and said foolishly, “Come with me for a moment.”

Deeply agitated, he followed her into the basement.

His bed was still empty, with shackles at the head of the bed. A body was lying on the ground, covered in blood, with signs of trauma around the neck. Not move. Ming Lan's entire body turned soft, and she said, “She, she. .”

Yao Yuange's voice was as cold as water and unhurriedly commented, “Ya, it's too much for him. He died.” Towards the end of his speech, his voice sounded a little confused.

Ming Lan immediately shouted, “Mati? Then what do we do? What are we doing?!”

Yao Yuange lifted him off the floor with a single move. “Job! Why are you panicking? Dead is dead, so let's think of a way out! We need to cover this up so that no one knows*, otherwise, our entire family will be lost! Tell everyone who asked him to run away! Escape! Tell Jufang and the others as well that he escaped! The less people know, the better! As long as there is no evidence, the police will not be able to pin anything on us!”

*T/N (shen bu zhi gui bu jue) – light up. spirits and ghosts don't know

……

The following events took their time for a whole week. It was ‘lucky’ that Yao Yuange had a sudden brainwave, and came up with the idea of a substitution of players. Ming Yue dressed like Tang Lianlian and ‘depart’ from the ancient city. At the same time, he announced that the No. 6 wife of the Yao family had escaped to some close friends and relatives. Previously, because he wanted to minimize the commotion, he did not make Tang Lianlian's full name known to the banquet guests, only referring to her as ‘ Xiao Lian.‘*. Although this meant losing face to Yao Yuange, it was much better than being a murder suspect. Besides, Tang Lianlian was alone. It wasn't until half a month later that the police came to investigate her disappearance. As expected, the police followed the trail that Ming Lan and Ming Yue had set, and went to the neighboring area. What does this have to do with the Yao family?

*T/N (xiao) means ‘small’; when used in conjunction with part of the name it is a form of address (usually dear) to someone younger than himself.

After all the dust was gone, that night, Yao Yuange returned to visit Ming Lan's room. To her surprise, her husband treated her with a passion she had never seen in recent years. He had thought he would be depressed and agitated as a result of Tang Lianlian. Who knows, after having an affair***, he lay down next to her while smoking. After a while, he muttered, “Ming Lan, although Xiao Liu* was disobedient, when I thought about it now, that night, it was really something else. I've never felt so excited before.”

*T/N \= ‘small (see note above) six’ is Tang Lianlian, 6th wife

Shaking, Ming Lan raised her head to look at him.

He had also opened his eyes, and there were waves of darkness within. He slowly smiled.

A long, long time after that, Ming Lan finally understood: from that night onwards, from the time that Tang Lianlian had died by Yao Yuange’s hand, he was a totally different person. That long-suppressed balloon had finally exploded in a way he had always sought after. Thereafter, the body of every young girl he fancied was always marked with a sticky, used condom, etc, and so were the bodies of the five women of the Yao family – these greedy women who were resigned to their fate.

……

When Tong Sheng appeared at the bar, she attracted the attention of every man present. She was too beautiful, and her beauty had a pure and almost spiritual aspect. Moreover, she was unpretentious, dressed simply in a white shirt and jeans, and her eyes looked upon the hedonistic scene before her with an air of timidity. She truly seemed like a stalk of fragrant narcissus.

Of course, he also caught the attention of Yao Yuange, who was looking behind the scenes on the second floor.

Afterwards, Ming Lan worked with her usual skills and left no trace. He managed to kidnap Tong Sheng and take him to Yao's residence, then completed the next undercover job on the second day. Merely, as he did all this, his heart felt empty, as usual. Empty like a ravine. He was well aware that this lifetime was like an elegant brocade filled with maggots. There was no way to return, so he had to keep going until it was completely rotten.

These few days, Yao Yuange was extremely happy, and told Ming Lan more than once: This Tong Sheng is too beautiful, his skin is too beautiful. This is the most amazing woman I have ever collected.

Even when Tong Sheng died, Yao Yuange was reluctant to part with him. He deliberately buried his bones in a very remote forest. After that, he even visited the forest several times, just to take a look.

Winter has turned into spring. The servants in the outer building of the residence changed, and changed again. Yao Yuange still ruled all like an emperor, and his women lived like ants.

Then, one morning, a servant suddenly pushed open the door of Ming Lan's room in a panic. He and Yao Yuange looked up at the same time and heard the waiter hurriedly gasp, “A guest at our inn died in the back lane last night!” Yao Yuange immediately stood up. Ming Lan put down the glass she was holding, but did not place it firmly. It fell with ‘collision’ and crumbled. Ming Lan looked down to see water flowing in all directions. Just like that first night, when he saw fresh blood. There's no way to stop it.
