Tan Jing's bad news kept leaking out, not only about her being beaten but also about her being delivered by Tan Song to be toyed with by others. Tan Song had racked up too much debt, and he couldn't pay it off. Those who lent him money pressed him hard, threatening to kill him if he didn't settle his debts.
Tan Song had no choice, and at that time, a creditor told him that if he let Tan Jing accompany him for one night, he would knock off a hundred thousand from the debt. Tan Song, like grasping at a lifeline, kept sending Tan Jing to the beds of these creditors, even spending money to repair her physical injuries, so she could appear before them in her best condition.
Tan Jing couldn't bear such a life; she tried everything to escape, but each escape only brought on harsher torment. She even ran to Chen Yi, but Chen Yi, who had always been chasing after her, saw her as a huge nuisance and promptly threw her out.
