Mo Lan was stumbling as he dragged her forward.
Her body was already very weak, and by the time they reached the pond, she felt completely exhausted.
Ruigang kicked her knee, and she abruptly kneeled down.
He grabbed her hair and forcefully pushed her head underwater—
The sudden lack of oxygen made Mo Lan struggle instinctively, and Ruigang revealed a smug smile.
Soon, she stopped struggling, quietly burying her face in the water, resigned to her fate.
Ruigang swiftly grabbed her head, and Mo Lan gasped for air.
"Huh—" He sneered and pushed her head back down.
"Afraid, aren't you?" he pressed on, asking in a chilling tone.
Mo Lan made no movement, only her hand gripping the edge of the pond tightened.
"Just move a bit, and I'll let you up!"
"..."
"Otherwise, stay there and suffocate to death!"
"..."
Still no reaction from her, Ruigang's expression grew even colder.
30 seconds passed, then a minute... two minutes...
