Shen Mingzhu awoke amidst a sharp pain.

Instinctively wanting to retaliate, she found her hands unable to move—looking down, she saw her limbs were bound to a post with ropes.

Panic and fear uncontrollably surged from the depths of Shen Mingzhu’s heart.

In both her lives combined, she’d never encountered such a vicious incident.

Could she not escape the fate of the supporting female character, and was today the day her life would end here?
