Lazily Yours. - Chapter 616: Slapping More Faces

“You think I wanted to use your body for my studies?”

“Isn’t that why you’re here?” she asked. Was this a misunderstanding?

“You are misunderstanding something missy.”

Really? Then what was that look just now? Clearly, he looked really excited. It was as if he found a treasure box. Moreover, didn’t he just say that the payment wasn’t enough? Then what else does he want?

Seeing her reaction, Aden shook his head. His handsome features relaxed as he took a step back and elegantly sat on the couch. Crossing his legs, he gestured her to sit down on the bed, across him. “You are so naive,” he said while watching her sit on the bed. “Did you really think I would need your permission if I wanted to study your body? I could easily kill you and make you disappear.”

“…” Right. He was bragging again. This man really loved to brag about his capabilities. Of course, it only made sense. After all, he was indeed very smart- genius smart.

“Moreover, if I really wanted to use someone, I wouldn’t use your body. You are far too weak for my experiments… trust me… you will break.”

“…” And he was back to insulting her again. How nice.

“I came here because I… ” He squinted at her. “Naturally, I want to witness my brilliant creation!”

“…” This man.

“Seeing you heal is just magical. Did you think I would slice you apart and check the status of your body?”

“Isn’t that something you would do?”

“Indeed… however… Miss Sutton is clearly looking down on me. I am a gentleman. I would never hurt a woman.”

“Then I will trust you on that.”

Aden waves his hand. “No worries. I will promise you. I would never hurt you or use your body for my future studies.” Then he let out a yawn. “Alright… I am still tired from my travels. I should sleep.”

Just like that, he left her alone.

A sigh of relief escaped her lips when he closed the door. This floor was already closed to the outsiders, so she isn’t worried that someone would see Aden. She heard that the management told everyone that this floor was already off-limits.

However, this begs another question. Just who is that man? How could he influence the management of this place?

Gabi shook her head and decided to stop thinking about Aden. She needed her rest!

…..

Morning.

Gabi woke up at three to attend her classes.

This time, she noticed the changes in everyone’s gaze. Even Ma Ping was staring at her with a different light in his eyes.

“Have you heard?” Miles asked her. “Mara’s face was so swollen… when she saw her face, she was so angry, she attacked the nurse.”

“Oh? She woke up early?”

“She woke up two hours after she was sent to the infirmary.”

“Since she can walk…” She would still be forced to join the exercises. That was part of the rule. Unless your limbs were cut, or you were dead, then you are still going to join the exercises. After looking around, she finally found the woman, whose face wrapped with bandages. Seeing the sharp look in Mara’s eyes, Gabi burst out laughing.

“Alright… alright… that’s enough.” Ma Ping silenced the whispers that followed. “Today, we will have a new instructor. But he is late… so I will introduce him later.”

Was it Aden? He is going to teach here? Gabi couldn’t help but wonder what that man is up to now.

“Anyway… the people that I call… fall in line and receive some weights for the exercises. Fred! Delia! Mara…” The nine people that Ma Ping called out immediately fall into a line.

“What’s happening?” Gabi asked. Why were they given extra weights?

“No idea.”

“These people dared to drug another student. As punishment, all exercises will be doubled and they will be given some extra weights.” Ma Ping had a sadistic smile on his face as he looked down at everyone under the platform that he was standing from. “You actually dare to bribe someone? How bold…”

“Sir!” Just as Gabi expected, Fred immediately raised his hand. “We didn’t drug anyone. Is there proof…”

“Young man… “Ma Ping sneered. “Did you really think that we were fools?” His threatening tone was enough to silence everyone. “This news has reached the Madam. She approved of the punishment herself. If you have complaints… ask your family to do it… after I kick you out of this place… oh wait… you should pray first that you don’t end up dead. After all… dead people…” Ma Ping squinted. “Can’t talk.”

This…

So they knew about the drugging? This only means that they can stop it. But they didn’t! They actually let these people fall into a trap by drugging Gabi! The realization sent shivers down Gabi’s spine.

It seems that Tartarus doesn’t care if the trainees die or survive. They also didn’t care that their families would complain or retaliate.

Just how powerful is the owner of this place?

“These people were dumb,” Miles murmured. “This place has top security. Did they really think they could bribe anyone here? And to think they call themselves elite.”

After Ma Ping left, everyone started running uphill until five in the morning.

“How come your hand is fine?” Someone asked when they were waiting for Ma Ping to give them new instructions. “Mara’s face was swollen… your hand…”

Gabi shrugged. “Oh… I am used to slapping concrete walls when I’m angry.” Since she needed to avoid detection, she needed to pretend that she wasn’t wounded at all.

When everyone heard Gabi’s words, they couldn’t help but feel speechless. It seems that Gabi wasn’t as simple as she looked.

“Miss D… Our fight is at nine in the morning. You should prepare your face.” Of course, Gabi took this opportunity to make people angry. “I hope it’s as thick as Miss M’s.”

“You are going overboard! Did you really think that I wouldn’t kill you after what you did to Mara last night?”

“Ohhh… scary. How scary. I just hope your face could handle it.” Since these people dared to poison her, then she would slap their faces until they faint! Slowly, her gaze landed at the people who had weights. Yes… she is going to slap each of their faces soon!
