"Wanwan, you can only have me in your world." Song Yanci gently touched Lin Wan's ankle with a velvet glove, and the metal chain made a crisp sound when it collided.
Everyone in the city knew that Lin Wan was Song Yanci's most precious "prison bird" - he cut off all contact with the outside world and controlled every detail of her food, clothing, housing and transportation.
