Lin Yixun didn’t know when all this would end; she only knew that when it did, her body felt as if it had been brutally crushed, ready to fall apart. She turned her eyes to glance at the man beside her, already deeply asleep, then involuntarily looked towards the bathroom. She remembered that there was a pair of scissors in the cabinet underneath the sink. She couldn’t help but wonder what would happen if she plunged those scissors into Leng Yixiu’s chest. She thought about it, and in fact, she was ready to do it. When she snapped out of such a crazy thought, a pair of scissors suddenly appeared in her hand. Lin Yixun gripped the scissors tightly, so hard that the cold handle sank deeply into her palm, and she was completely unaware. She stared intently at the man lying on the bed, eyes filled with unprecedented madness. Under the hazy yellow light, the man’s sharply defined handsome face grew larger in Lin Yixun’s sight as she approached. In his sleep, he didn’t seem as cruel, but Lin Yixun knew very well how ruthless he was when awake. A voice in Lin Yixun’s heart was calling: Kill him, kill him! If he dies, then all this will be over! She would no longer be controlled, nor would she suffer such pain. But in some corner of her heart, another voice called out: Lin Yixun, is it really worth it to ruin your life and lose your life for such a scumbag? Your parents only have you as their daughter, can you really bear to let them mourn you? In the end, reason prevailed over everything. Lin Yixun withdrew her hand at the last moment. Indeed, it wasn’t worth losing her life for this scumbag. Although her love had been destroyed by Leng Yixiu, she still had her parents, and familial affection. Her life was still long, even if she lived like a walking corpse, she had to grit her teeth and continue, if not for herself, then for her parents who had raised and loved her. After returning to T City, Leng Yixiu did drink quite a lot, even though he was dead drunk, the memories from the previous night lingered in his mind the next morning. He turned his eyes to the empty side of the bed and curled his lips bitterly. Last night, he did that kind of thing to Lin Yixun again; she must hate him to the core now. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by novel[f]ire.net But Lin Yixun had long hated him deeply, one more time wouldn’t matter. Once the door to desire is opened, it becomes uncontrollable. Every subsequent night was undoubtedly a nightmare for Lin Yixun. If Leng Yixiu had restrained himself a bit before, now he was utterly unbridled. No matter how much Lin Yixun struggled, no matter how much she resisted, Leng Yixiu wouldn’t let her go every night. Every time, the more Lin Yixun resisted, the more excited the man became, and he wouldn’t stop until she was half-dead. Finally, realizing resistance was futile, Lin Yixun gave up; she secretly comforted herself that Leng Yixiu would eventually tire of her broken body, and when that day came, she would be free. But she never thought that this idea would be shattered by a man’s words one day. Lin Yixun muddled through a long few days , and when Leng Yixiu got up one day, Lin Yixun slowly opened her eyes, coldly watching the man’s straight back and said in a deep voice, "I want to go to work." "I’ve already taken care of your leave from the company; you don’t need to go in for the next while." Lin Yixun’s fingers suddenly tightened, gripping the sheet beneath her, taking a deep breath, "Then I can at least go to Shengde Hospital to see my mom, right?" The man’s actions paused slightly, his voice deep, "I’ve already informed the caregiver that you’re on a business trip for a month." Lin Yixun finally couldn’t bear it, "Leng Yixiu, don’t go too far!" The man put on his suit, turned around, and looked down at her, "Your health is poor, you need rest, it’s not suitable for you to go out." Lin Yixun inwardly sneered. What did he mean by her health being poor? What was wrong with her health? This was clearly just an excuse; he simply wanted to keep her here like a prisoner for his own pleasure. "This is my body, I know it well, you don’t need to worry!" Something seemed to touch a nerve within the man; his eyes turned icy as he grabbed Lin Yixun’s collar and said coldly, "Your body is mine now. Whether it needs rest is up to me. If I say it needs rest, then it needs rest." Seeing Lin Yixun’s almond-shaped eyes glaring, her beautiful eyes seeming to want to spit fire, the man’s grip slightly loosened, but his voice remained icy. "Lin Yixun, as long as our deal isn’t finished, everything about you is not up to you. Including your body and your heart." "My heart?" Lin Yixun sneered, pointing to her chest, "My heart is right here, if you have the ability, take it." "Your heart will belong to me sooner or later," the man squinted his eyes, "Before that, you need to do one thing." "Give birth to a child for me." To Lin Yixun, this was undoubtedly a big joke. What did Leng Yixiu want to do? He had already destroyed her life, wasn’t that enough? "You have no say in whether you give birth." "Leng Yixiu, you can’t be so cruel!" "Cruel?" The man’s eyes moved slightly, laughed self-deprecatingly, and his thin lips parted, "Speaking of cruelty, Lin Yixun, haven’t you been cruel too?" Leaving those words, the man got up from her, tidied his clothes, and restored his look of elegance again. Lin Yixun stared coldly at him, who would have thought that beneath this handsome exterior lay such an ugly heart. Clearly, he was the one entangled with her, he was the one who ruined everything, yet he called her cruel. How shameless could he be! After Leng Yixiu left, Lin Yixun carefully recalled everything that had happened just now. From the man’s various reactions, it didn’t seem like he was joking. Did he really plan to make her give birth to a child? Thinking about it this way, it seemed that Leng Yixiu’s recent strange actions all made sense. He arranged for someone to follow her twenty-four hours a day without letting her step out of the villa; her diet was managed by a professional nutritionist; and the crazy things he did to her...all of it pointed to this issue... The more Lin Yixun thought about it, the more scared she became. She was already in a cage; if she bore a child for Leng Yixiu, she would be completely trapped in hell!
