Chapter 153

Most people could express a sense of brokenness by adjusting the light and composition of a photo. Such fragile beauty often evoked the most pity and affection from the strong.

However, something easily achieved in a photo was hard to orchestrate in real life.

Yet the woman before her seemed able to control the lighting around her. Every move, every expression was exquisitely beautiful.

After Si Chengyou, she was the second person Shen Yue found frightening.

But unlike Si Chengyou, this woman had power but no ability to protect herself.

Though logical analysis failed to explain it, Shen Yue broadly sensed what the woman was trying to do.

"I\'m sorry, I misunderstood. All my money was just stolen. Could you please lend me some? I\'ll definitely pay you back." After being rejected by Prisoner No.14, the beautiful prisoner stopped pestering him and made another request instead.

No one would reject such a pretty woman, except Prisoner No.14.

"I have no money. Go ask someone else," he said. With a sigh, he glanced at Shen Yue, who was watching the drama unfold from afar, then ignored the ill-intentioned woman and walked over to Shen Yue.

The beautiful prisoner was left behind Prisoner No.14, looking utterly pitiful.

Soon after No.14 left, other prisoners approached the beauty and offered to lend her money.

Seeing this, Shen Yue hatched an idea.

I want to learn how she does it.

Shen Yue always believed the best way to gain true knowledge was through practice.

After No.14 returned to her side, she took the initiative to approach the beauty and extended an invitation. "Would you like to make a deal with me? I\'ll protect you."

When Shen Yue uttered those words, Prisoner No.14\'s left eye started twitching uncontrollably for some reason.

He put his hand over his left eye, gripped by a sense of impending doom.

The left eye jumping signifies wealth, the right eye jumping signifies disaster. His left eye was jumping, so...his wealth was about to disappear.

Daniela Goetz looked from No.14 to Shen Yue and asked softly, "What kind of deal?"

Shen Yue said, "You\'re very beautiful. I want you to stay by my side."

As long as she kept this woman close by, she could learn from observing her.

Hearing Shen Yue\'s words, Dani\'s face changed. She asked Shen Yue, "Do you...like women?"

Before Shen Yue could respond, No.14\'s face darkened.

Dani shrank back a little, intimidated by No.14\'s gaze.

Shen Yue shook her head. "No, don\'t worry. I just think you\'re very capable. I want you to stay by my side and help me."

When two parties negotiate, the one at an advantage must continually prove the other\'s value in order to gain their trust and convince them they deserve such treatment.

Shen Yue didn\'t learn this from Si Chengyou but through interacting with him.

She realized he had led her by the nose whenever he affirmed her.

In other words, people could best trust each other when they felt they stood on equal footing.

Shen Yue was trying to create that equality now by revealing her own "weaknesses" to the clearly disadvantaged Dani, demonstrating her sincerity. "You have something I need. Will you stay with me?"

Dani glanced again at No.14 before asking Shen Yue, "Is he your knight?"

Shen Yue nodded. "Yes."

"He would never betray you?"

No.14\'s gaze turned inscrutable as he looked at Shen Yue. Then he heard her answer without hesitation, "No, he won\'t betray me."

Dani seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Shen Yue noticed even her sigh was captivating.

She was clearly a formidable woman.

"Okay, I\'ll stay with you from now on. My name is Daniela Goetz."

"I\'m Shen Yue." Shen Yue nodded at Dani. Then, without regard for how shortly ago they had reached their agreement, she began arranging Dani\'s schedule.

"Meet me at Cell Block 8 tomorrow morning at 9."

Dani seemed somewhat hesitant.

Seeing this, Shen Yue had No.14 give Dani some money.

With money in hand, the tension finally left Dani\'s furrowed brows, revealing a radiant beauty. Her breath was fragrant as orchids. "Alright, I\'ll go with you tomorrow."

Watching Shen Yue\'s actions, No.14 didn\'t understand, but he also didn\'t ask.

Too much knowledge wasn\'t always a good thing. All he needed to do was step in when Shen Yue needed him.

Shen Yue headed towards her cell, exhausted. Upon reaching her cell door, she realized No.14 was still following her.

"No.14, which cell are you in?"

"The one right next to yours."

Shen Yue nodded. "That works nicely."

"If you need anything, just call me like before."

Shen Yue touched her earpiece. "I can\'t communicate with you over the earpieces anymore."

No.14 paused briefly before saying, "Please wait a moment."

He then entered the cell next to Shen Yue\'s, shutting the door behind him.

Shortly after, No.14 emerged. Shen Yue\'s nose twitched as a faint bloody scent wafted her way on the breeze.

Before Shen Yue could ask, No.14 brought something close to her earpiece.

With a beep, a mechanical voice sounded in Shen Yue\'s ear.

【Su Yun\'an, Inmate No. 2. Identity changed.

You now hold Su Yun\'an\'s life rights. If an uncontrollable situation occurs, you may terminate Su Yun\'an with the destruct code.

Destruct Code: 487521】

Shen Yue looked up at No.14, backlit so she couldn\'t make out his expression. But his voice was gentle to the point of disquiet.

"I used to be Inmate No. 2 before I was made a prison guard since so many feared me."

"Did you hear the prompt? My life now belongs to you."

"That is the true meaning of my status as your \'dog\'."
