28: save4 Punishment for Misbehaving
Helpless tears streamed down Liu Lili's face. The intense pain and the inability to struggle ensnared her mind in endless fear, leaving her utterly bewildered.
Why was this happening?
Hadn't Lu Lele already said those things...
Hadn't she herself just gone along with it...
Hadn't it been the moment when, as long as Lu Lele took her out of the house, she could regain her freedom...
Why had Lu Lele suddenly become so cold, so bloodthirsty?
Could it be that she had slipped up, letting Lu Lele discover she wasn't sincerely planning to go with her, but was only pretending to comply to find a chance to leave the house?
When people are in a state of extreme fear, their minds often race with wild thoughts.
Liu Lili grew more and more convinced that it must have been some action of her own that had exposed her true intentions, letting Lu Lele discover her desire to escape. Her face grew increasingly pale.
If that was really the case... then things were truly, utterly terrible...
From the moment of her confinement, Liu Lili had never given up on searching for a way to escape.
No matter what she said or did to Lu Lele, no matter what Lu Lele said or did to her, this thought had never been significantly diminished.
However, that didn't mean every word Liu Lili said to Lu Lele was a lie.
On the contrary, most were the truth. Liu Lili also deeply loved Lu Lele. But she was as stubborn as Lu Lele, with her own bottom line. She could not accept being treated as a plaything by Lu Lele. Even if she were to be with Lu Lele, she could not accept being together in this way.
It was probably only during that moment of mental collapse that Liu Lili briefly broke through her own bottom line, saying many words that lost her dignity. But after regaining her senses, Liu Lili adjusted quickly, deciding to go along with the scheme, pretending to submit to Lu Lele, and then waiting for an opportunity.
She just never expected that something that seemed on the verge of success would ultimately turn to nothing. Lu Lele's attitude towards her had suddenly done a complete one hundred eighty degree turn, becoming cold and forceful, so rough, so unfamiliar.
Liu Lili's tears kept falling uncontrollably. Fear, humiliation, terror, and despair surfaced on her face, blending into a twisted, pitiful visage.
"Ah, sorry, did I bite too hard? My apologies~"
As if noticing the change in her childhood friend's expression, Lu Lele suddenly stopped sucking, revealing a sickly smile:
"But, the taste of Lili's blood is truly intoxicating~"
Then, under Liu Lili's horrified gaze, Lu Lele stuck out her little tongue and licked Liu Lili's cheek. She then cupped her own face, her complexion flushed, and said:
"I want, little by little, to eat Lili up~♡ From the skin to the flesh and blood, from the flesh and blood to the organs, from the organs to the bones~♡"
"Hey, Lili, you, must be delicious, right? Even your blood is this sweet. Every other part of your body, no matter where, must be delicious, right?"
As she spoke, Lu Lele used her fingernails to casually trace lines on Liu Lili's body, occasionally giving a little poke.
Hearing these words, Liu Lili trembled all over in fright.
Perhaps before, she would never have believed such threatening talk.
But now it was different.
Lu Lele had become someone Liu Lili didn't recognize at all. In her eyes, Lu Lele had gone completely crazy. There was nothing she might not do.
Driven by the instinct for survival, Liu Lili, crying and trembling, said:
"Lele, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."
A glimmer of a smile, almost imperceptible, flashed in Lu Lele's eyes. She tilted her head and asked in return:
"My, my, Lili hasn't done anything wrong to me, why apologize?"
After saying that, Lu Lele smiled, taking Liu Lili's handcuffed hands in her own and examining them carefully.
"Mmm~ Lili's fingers are so cute, they look delicious~"
Liu Lili's body trembled even more violently. She couldn't stop saying:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I was wrong, Lele, I was really wrong, I'm sorry, please, don't do this..."
"Has Lili done something wrong? I don't know about that~" Lu Lele deliberately said.
"I was wrong... I shouldn't have thought about, shouldn't have thought about escaping, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
"Oh? Thought about escaping?"
Lu Lele's gaze suddenly turned sharp:
"Lili, you, wanted to escape?"
Seeing Lu Lele's look, Liu Lili was frightened again, instinctively shaking her head:
"No... I didn't mean that..."
"My, my, so Lili means she never once thought about escaping?"
Enjoying the pleasure of repeatedly tormenting Liu Lili's mind, Lu Lele smiled and said:
"Mmm, would Lili's fingers taste better fried, or steamed? Perhaps~ made into sashimi would be even more delicious?"
With that, Lu Lele took out a small knife she had prepared earlier and, without another word, drew it across the pad of Liu Lili's left index finger.
Sskritch.
Crimson liquid welled up. Lu Lele hadn't cut very deep, but with fingers being so sensitive, the pain Liu Lili felt was very real.
Liu Lili was so terrified she lost control. Liquid ran down her panties and thighs. The bath she just took was all for nothing.
At this moment, every last one of Liu Lili's mental defenses was utterly shattered. Extreme terror and fear left her with no doubt about Lu Lele's threats. Her mind was filled with only one thought: beg the devil before her for mercy to keep her fingers.
Liu Lili cried until she could barely catch her breath, pleading:
"Lele, spare me... wuwu... I won't dare, I really won't dare anymore..."
"Won't dare what?" Lu Lele quietly observed Liu Lili's injured finger, asking each word deliberately.
"Escaping, I won't dare think about escaping anymore... I am Lele's possession, I am your object, I am your slave, I am your pet... I am whatever you say I am, I won't dare resist anymore, let me go, Lele, please, I beg you, I beg you! Please... don't, don't cut my fingers... wuwu..."
Hearing these words, Lu Lele finally showed a satisfied smile.
"Lili."
Lu Lele reached out and patted Liu Lili's head, smoothing her hair. Her tone returned to its previous gentleness:
"You're too naive, you know."
Lu Lele gently licked the wound on Liu Lili's finger, savoring the taste of blood:
"You are my most beloved person. How could I ever really hurt you?"
"From the beginning to the end, I was only trying to scare you, Lili."
"But, you personally admitted you wanted to escape me. That goes against your earlier promise. As punishment for your disobedience…"
Lu Lele sat on the bed, then pulled the crying Liu Lili over, pressing Liu Lili across her own lap.
Next, Lu Lele lifted her skirt and pulled down her panties. She pressed her left hand against her childhood friend's waist, raised her right hand, and aimed at Liu Lili's round bottom.
"Lili, I'm going to punish you harshly. The method of punishment is a spanking~♡"
"For each spank, you have to call out the count. Too fast or too slow doesn't count, understand?"
Liu Lili hadn't yet recovered from everything that just happened. She nodded mechanically and said:
"U-under... under... stood..."
"Heh..."
Lu Lele chuckled, then deliberately began speaking to herself:
"What is Lili's birthday? Oh~ March fifth. And mine, is May third."
"Then, let's make it eighty eight spanks. Hey, Lili, don't you think that number is very auspicious?"
