Li Yinian didnât seem to see it at all. She stared at the void with an empty expression.
Qiao Yanze felt as if his heart was being grabbed by a large hand. The pain made it difficult for him to breathe.
He put the cup aside and hugged her.
!!
âLi Yinian looked terrified and immediately struggled, but Qiao Yanze tightened his grip.â
âââDonât move. I wonât touch you,ââ he said hoarsely. ââIâll send you to the bathroom. Take a good bath⦠I think you need it.âââ
He sounded self-deprecating as he said the last sentence.
âAlthough he wasnât done, he had still penetrated her. She would definitely feel uncomfortable.â
âââI can walk by myself.ââ She still looked resistant.â
Qiao Yanze glanced at her and didnât say anything. He picked her up horizontally and walked towards the bathroom.
âLi Yinianâs body stiffened, but she didnât struggle too violently. She was afraid that if she resisted too much, it would trigger the manâs beastly nature, just like just now.â
âFortunately, he had really calmed down this time, so he put her in the bath and turned on the switch for her before leaving the bathroom.â
Li Yinianâs tense nerves and body finally relaxed.
âAccompanied by the sound of water, she sat in the bath with her knees bent and whimpered like a little girl.â
âShe had been taking a shower for an hour, but she did not bring her clothes in, so she could only wrap herself in a bathrobe and tie it tightly.â
âWhen she stood at the door, she was still a little hesitant or afraid, but she couldnât stay in the bathroom forever, so after hesitating for a while, she pushed the door open and walked out.â
Qiao Yanze was waiting at the door.
âHe was standing against the wall and had changed into a fresj set of clothes. He was biting a cigarette in his mouth. In the white smoke, the manâs expression was calm, but there was a hint of tension under that calmness. The slap mark on his face made the tension even more ferocious.â
Li Yinian stopped in her tracks and even lowered her breathing. Her widened eyes were filled with fear. She was really afraid of this man.
âThe moment Qiao Yanze looked up, he saw the fear in her eyes.â
âHis pupils constricted, and the tension seemed to have intensified.â
âLi Yinian avoided eye contact with him, but she couldnât help asking, ââQiao Yanze, what exactly do you want?âââ
âQiao Yanze looked at her quietly for a while, stubbed out his cigarette and smiled.â
âââWhat do I want?ââ He focused his dark eyes on her. ââI want to go back to the time when we first got together. I want you to come back to me. I want you never to leave me.âââ
âââImpossible.ââ She smiled bitterly and said only those three words, but she refused to say another word.â
âThere was bitterness and cold cynicism on the womanâs face, as if she was mocking his innocence.â
âââIâm sorry. I shouldnât have treated you like that.ââ He laughed hoarsely. ââBelieve it or not, I only wanted to see you and take a DNA sample, but after seeing youâ¦âââ
âLi Yinian clenched her fists and took a step back, pressing herself against the bathroom door to put some distance between them.â
This defensive action made Qiao Yanze smile even more self-deprecating.
