"I was very obedient. I didn't cry or cause trouble. While the other children locked in the cages were still wailing, I was already calmly choosing an owner. After experiencing seven escape attempts and tortures, I had learned how to protect myself. Even if I was to be sold, I wanted to choose my own owner. I picked the madam of a brothel. Her surname was Liu. She was an alluring and striking woman with a kind and gentle mien. When she approached me, I smiled at her. She admired my looks, and I trusted her perceived kindness. It was an instant match. Lady Liu liked to select girls with pretty appearances to train them for a good price in the future. To fetch the best price, she even hired a doctor to heal my injured hand. She fed me well, clothed me warmly, and raised me until my teeth were white and my lips were red. For a moment, I almost thought I had encountered a good person."
