Xue An, who was pondering how to tame and utilize these thugs under his command, felt a sharp pain and couldn’t help but open his eyes.
The woman had long been terrified, standing there shaking in her clothes. Seeing Xue An open his eyes, she dropped to her knees with a thud, repeatedly kowtowing.
"Spare me, sir! Spare me, sir! I didn’t mean it, please don’t kill me! Don’t kill me!"
The unusual behavior of the Head of the Stronghold today had already made the woman as skittish as a startled bird, so she easily collapsed now.
But just as she thought she was doomed, a calm voice came from above her head.
"Get up. In the future, unless I speak, you are not allowed to kneel!"
"Yes... huh?" The woman thought she heard wrong, raising her head to look at Xue An with a face full of bewilderment.
Was that it?
Didn’t even get hit?
Sensing the woman’s confusion, Xue An suppressed the laughter in his heart, putting on a stern face.
"What? Do I need to beat you up before you’re willing to stand?"
Only then did the woman hurriedly stand up, standing awkwardly, seemingly unsure of what to do next.
Xue An said casually, "Go get a razor and a towel!"
"Yes!" The woman turned and left.
"Oh, and bring a mirror!"
"Yes!"
The woman instinctively responded, only realizing once she left the room.
Why did the Head of the Stronghold need a razor, towel, and mirror?
Could it be... he plans to use the razor to cut me to death slowly?
The towel should be for wiping away the blood?
As for the mirror...
Maybe the Head of the Stronghold has some perverted hobby, liking to watch the pain on his victim’s face in the mirror!
This thought made the woman’s face instantly pale as she found more reason in it the more she thought.
But not daring to defy Xue An’s orders, she brought the items in a disheartened manner, then returned to the room.
At the moment of opening the door, the woman, near despair, took one last glance at the radiant sunlight and silently lamented in her heart.
Goodbye!
Sunlight!
Goodbye!
Beautiful world!
This must be the last time I see you all.
Then she summoned her last courage and walked into the room, asking in a trembling voice.
"Sir, I’ve brought the items. When will you start?"
"Let’s start now!" Xue An said calmly, sitting in the chair.
So it is! The woman gave a bitter smile, her face turning ghostly pale, and resignedly closed her eyes.
"Sir, please be quick when you start, so I can die without pain, and thus be grateful to your kindness even in the afterlife!"
Upon hearing this, Xue An turned and glanced at her oddly, then said with a chuckle.
"What nonsense! I want you to shave off the remaining hair on my head!"
Huh?
The woman almost couldn’t believe her ears.
Could it be the Head of the Stronghold really wasn’t planning to kill her?
This doubt only faded when she actually started shaving Xue An’s head.
