Chen Xueru’s tears, like pearls from a broken string, fell incessantly. She abandoned all resistance, enduring the pain he inflicted, biting down hard on her lower lip. Even as her lip broke and she tasted blood, she neither pleaded nor made a sound.
Tang Shuwen was completely imrsed in the imnse physical pleasure. Her body showed no signs of having borne a child; it was incredibly firm and captivating. Her contractions due to pain made him feel exceptionally good, and all the blood rushed downwards. His eyes, burning red with desire, couldn’t see the silent agony of the woman beneath him, nor her despondent expression.
His ravaging intensified. A peculiar lubrication began to appear within her, making his movents smoother and more intoxicating. He thrust forcefully, plundering. Chen Xueru emptied her mind, her soul and body seemingly existing in separate spaces. She protected herself, and the physical pain seed bearable.
As long as her heart didn’t ache or break, she could survive.
With another forceful thrust, he reached his climax, and did not withdraw, releasing into her body without hesitation. Yet, he felt unsatisfied, as if addicted. The more he took from her, the more he desired. This addiction, he thought, was like a drug addiction—never truly sated. Tang Shuwen leaned down to kiss her lips, tasting blood. He opened his eyes, his predatory movents pausing slightly.
Chen Xueru’s hair was disheveled, her face streaked with tears. To mask her pallor, she had applied heavier makeup today, but it was now almost entirely sared. Her lips were bleeding, and she looked utterly disheveled.
Especially her eyes—they were hollow and colorless, unfocused, simply staring wide at the crystal chandelier on the ceiling. Tang Shuwen suddenly realized that she hadn’t made a single sound since he started.
She had silently endured his cruelty.
Seeing her disarray made him feel even more like a beast.
Tang Shuwen felt as if soone had punched him hard in the heart, a deep, heavy, suffocating ache. Desire receded like water, and he withdrew, leaving behind traces of blood-tinged discharge.
The carpet beneath Chen Xueru was stained with blood. Tang Shuwen’s gaze stung; it turned out that blood had been lubricating her body. He turned his head to look at Chen Xueru, then despondently covered his face.
He must be insane.
He must be insane.
When had Tang Shuwen ever forced a woman? When had he ever coerced soone? When had he ever done sothing so bestial? He must be insane.
An inexplicable pain gripped his heart tightly.
Looking at the bruises on her body, he felt even more debased than a beast.
He couldn’t understand why he felt such intense emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, happiness—towards Chen Xueru. It was as if he had reverted to the passionate young man of his youth. Why, why...
He repeatedly asked himself, but could not find an answer.
"Xueru..." Tang Shuwen called her na. Chen Xueru lay on the ground, unresponsive. Tang Shuwen was about to pick her up to help her wash when the phone rang like a death knell. It was Zhao Yuning’s special ringtone.
He answered, and Gu Rui’s anxious voice sounded: "Tang Shuwen, Yuning has had an attack and been hospitalized. Co quickly and see her."
"What?" Tang Shuwen hastily stood up, quickly dressed, and rushed out the door, asking Gu Rui what was wrong with Zhao Yuning. Gu Rui said it was acute appendicitis and required a minor surgery.
Tang Shuwen’s heart eased. He had just reached downstairs when his steps faltered. Damn it, Xueru...
He had been so focused on Zhao Yuning’s illness that he had forgotten to tell Chen Xueru. The image of her lying tragically on the floor tore at Tang Shuwen’s heart. He turned to go back upstairs, stood by the elevator for a long ti, then ca out again and drove to the hospital.
Chen Xueru would be fine; she was so strong. Yuning had always been delicate, and even though it was a minor surgery, there was always a chance of sothing going wrong. He thought about Chen Xueru and Zhao Yuning as he drove.
He closed his eyes. He needed to make a decision quickly...
In the bathroom, Chen Xueru unconsciously washed her body. The warm water did nothing to alleviate her pain. She curled up, hugging herself, and sobbed quietly.
Xiao Nian, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry...
Mommy is so sorry to you!
In the bathroom, her tears flowed like rain.
After showering, Chen Xueru took out the dicine cabinet. Xiao Nian often had scrapes and bumps, so the dicine cabinet contained various dications. Chen Xueru painfully applied so white ointnt to her intimate area. The wound was severely painful, and if she didn’t apply dicine, she feared she would walk strangely tomorrow. She gritted her teeth, enduring the deep sorrow welling up inside her.
She kept telling herself, "It’s okay, it’s okay..."
The most painful mont has passed; it’s okay now.
Tang Shuwen stayed with Zhao Yuning in the hospital all night. She was weak but fortunately, nothing major was wrong.
He stayed with her all night in the hospital, and he thought all night.
He wanted Chen Xueru and Xiao Nian.
But he also didn’t want to give up Zhao Yuning.
He and Zhao Yuning had been in love since middle school, and they certainly had a beautiful period together.
Later, Zhao Yuning broke up with him, wanting to go to the United States to study jewelry design by herself. During the period imdiately after their breakup, he was indeed very heartbroken, so he worked day and night on the Longn transactions and t Chen Xueru.
He had been busy with Longn affairs back then partly because Zhao Yuning was also in the United States, and he wanted to breathe under the sa sky as her. He never expected to coincidentally have a child with Chen Xueru.
After Chen Xueru, he began to despair of won, no longer staying in the United States, living a dissolute life, simply because he no longer trusted won as beings; every woman he was with felt like a cheap object.
A few months ago, Zhao Yuning returned to China to participate in a jewelry design competition. He accepted Gu Xiaochen’s invitation to attend the competition and re-encountered Zhao Yuning. For a couple who had been broken up for years, reuniting felt like a miracle, and they got back together.
They even discussed marriage, but unexpectedly, Chen Xueru and Xiao Nian suddenly appeared in his life.
He made no secret of his dislike for Xiao Nian. He believed Xiao Nian had ruined his relationship with Yuning, that Xiao Nian had disrupted his perfectly planned future, catching him off guard.
He also hated Chen Xueru, for not appearing sooner or later, but precisely at this mont.
