"Say, what's his name anyway?" In the dark cabin, Yang Xue was tied to a chair. Her arms were taped with a belt as if she was a mentally ill patient. A man with a black hood held a leather whip in his hand and stood in front of her.

"Dr. Yang. How about you tell me the name of that person, then I will let you go?" The interrogator asked her.

"Keep dreaming!" Yang Xue said, "I won't tell you anything even if it costs my life!"

"What a boring line. Stop watching those useless dramas. I can't just let you die easily." The interrogator sneered and pressed the remote control switch in his hand. An electric current passed through Yang Xue's body.

Yang Xue's body was shaking uncontrollably, so painful that she was about to die. She gripped the armrests of the chair, her fingertips began to turn white, her sweat had soaked her hair, but she did not make a sound from the beginning to the end.

"Heh, I'm surprised you can still talk." The interrogator increased the voltage, "But I don't think you can recover from this."

"Agh!"

Yang Xue made a painful sound in her throat, the interrogator laughed wildly, "Have you changed your mind? Come on, just say it. As long as you say the name of that person, I will let you go immediately."

"I... won't...say..." The shock increased time by time. Yang Xue's was at her limit, but she never gave up.

After another half a minute, her eyes rolled back, and she passed out. The interrogator hurriedly pressed the stop button and removed the electrode pieces attached to Yang Xue's body one by one. If it continues like this, she will really die.

He put Yang Xue on his back and looked like he wanted to take her out for medical treatment. Just at that moment. She pulled out a knife from her hand and placed it on his neck. The interrogator was shocked.

Yang Xue's weak voice can be heard faintly, "I...won..."

Seeing that Yang Xue was still conscious, the interrogator was surprised, shook his head, and put Yang Xue back on the chair. Then he took the hood off, and surprisingly, It was Zhang Jue.

Zhang Jue looked at Yang Xue, who was already very weak, and sighed, "Why didn't you just give up?"

Yang Xue was catching her breath. The attack she had just done had taken all of her strength.

She said word by word, "I, I said. I wanted to become... strong... I don't want... to become a burden to you..."

What a stubborn person. Zhang Jue no longer knew what to say about her.

In order to train her willpower, she had taken the initiative to ask Zhang Jue to interrogate her in the same way he treated prisoners. In the past few days, she had survived waterboarding, starvation, and this time, electrocution. Zhang Jue had tried everything he could to get her to surrender.

Zhang Jue did not doubt that even if he had to burn her alive, Yang Xue would have been able to endure it. It had to be said that in terms of enduring pain, at some point, men might not be as good as women - especially persistent women.

After a while, Yang Xue regained some of her strength. Zhang Jue still helped her go to the medical ward in the site for a checkup, confirming that there were no after-effects left, and only then did he feel relieved.

Because they had come to the medical ward so often in the past few days, the doctors in the infirmary looked at the two of them a little differently.

Zhang Jue even heard the doctor and nurse were muttering words like "domestic violence". If not because of Yang Xue, he would have punched that doctor.
