Chapter 146: Chapter 146: Never Have Such a Father

She knew that antagonizing him wouldn’t end well, yet she couldn’t help but do it anyway.

It wasn’t that she was too foolish, she knew how to read the room and act accordingly.

But those were for ordinary situations, and now that she was already in such a state, there was naturally no need to beg him, showing her vulnerable side.

Since weakness couldn’t save her, she had to be strong, she had only the desperate gamble to fight for her life.

The most perverse person?

Rong Shaoze sneered, raising his voice, "Woman, you call this perverse? You haven’t seen me at my most perverse. Actually, I have been rather gentle with you. Do you know that those who have angered me have ceased to exist in this world?"

Lin Xinlan spat out in contempt, "You mean to say I should thank you for your mercy! Rong Shaoze, don’t be so full of yourself, thinking you can do whatever you want, as if you have the world in your grasp! I’m telling you, you better release me quickly, otherwise, I will definitely sue you, and I will make you regret it for the rest of your life!"

"Haha." The man burst into hearty laughter, laughing aloud, "Lin Xinlan, you are too naive. If I dare do this to you, I’m not afraid of you suing me. The person who could sue me isn’t even born yet! Save your energy, lest the tide comes in and you don’t have the strength to hold your breath!"

Lin Xinlan’s face paled slightly, "What exactly do you want to do?!"

"What do I want to do?"

The man stood up straight, arms crossed, looking at her indifferently as he asked, "Tell me, where were you those days, who did you meet? If you don’t tell me, I will let you drown alive in the sea!"

Her face turned even paler.

He was saying he wanted to drown her alive...

Did he intend to kill her?

Lin Xinlan struggled to steady her fear, retorting irritably, "I didn’t meet anyone; you can believe it or not. Even if you drown me, my words remain the same!"

Such a terrifying man, he could not be Xiaocong’s father even in death.

Xiaocong could live without a mother, but he must not have such a father!

The man’s expression suddenly darkened, his voice turning very cold, "Lin Xinlan, it seems you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin! Keep being stubborn, and when you’re about to drown, let’s see if you’ll beg for mercy!"

"I won’t, not even in death will I beg you for mercy," Lin Xinlan said firmly.

Having thoroughly witnessed his terror, rather than suffering his torture continuously, she would rather die then and there.

Xiaocong, Mommy is sorry...

Even if Mommy is gone, you must live well, be happy, be kind and upright, and love life...

Lin Xinlan closed her eyes in agony, prepared for the worst.

If Rong Shaoze had an ounce of humanity, perhaps he wouldn’t really let her die.

If he didn’t, then it was her bad luck—if she died, then so be it.

She was gambling, staking her own life.

In fact, she, too, sought an opportunity for liberation...

Her readiness to face death ignited a fury inside Rong Shaoze.

"Good, very good, extremely good!" He said several ’good’s with a cold sneer.

"Lin Xinlan, you’re ruthless, then let’s see who can outlast the other, who will be the first to compromise! Hmph, now, you can just die slowly here all by yourself!"

He turned and stomped angrily into the cabin.

Tao Hua, who was sipping a drink at the bar, poured him a glass and slid it towards him. The glass skidded to where he was, and he caught it just in time with his hand.
