"My name is Lian Zhi, I'm a Furnace, and I escaped..." Lian Zhi trembled, revealing her background in full detail.
She was originally raised by a powerful family specifically to become a Furnace, trained well, and then given to some noble. Naturally, she was unwilling to accept this fate, so she seized the opportunity to escape when she was about to be gifted away.
She discovered that this room seemed a bit strange; even the ghosts around didn't dare to approach, assuming there was great power here. Possibly it could save her, so she found a way to break the door and rushed in.
"Sir, I beg you, don't send me back! If I go back, I will die! They will beat me to death..."
"Boohoo... I don't want to die!"
"Sir, as long as you're willing to take me in, I'll do whatever you want, just don't make me leave!"
...
Mu Wanlian raised an eyebrow: "Even if it means serving my dad, you're willing?"
Lian Zhi was taken aback: "Serving tea and water?"
