Chapter 11 "Why are you bleeding?"
738 Words
"You're being unreasonable." Shi Xiaonian thought that after the lie detector test, they would figure out that everything had been a misunderstanding.
"Am I being unreasonable? Shi Xiaonian, since you enjoy playing so much, I'll play along with you!" Gong Ou growled furiously in a low voice, reaching out to grip her chin as if he were going to crush it. Beneath him, the soft curves of the woman were pressed tightly against him, rising and falling with her anger. Damn it. Why did he think this woman looked so beautiful when she was angry?
Shi Xiaonian was pinned beneath him, the distance between them was so close. She felt both embarrassed and furious. "Rogue! Didn't you say you didn't want to touch me again?" Was he some sort of lecher?
"You're the one luring me." Gong Ou shifted the blame onto her.
"I didn't."
"Having such an open mind yet wearing such an innocent face. What is it if not luring?" Gong Ou's tone was full of mockery, yet his eyes fixed on her were tinged with a dark shade of desire. He lowered his head, about to kiss her lips.
Shi Xiaonian had never met such a shameless person. He had all those improper thoughts in his head yet blamed her for it. She was stunned for a second before quickly realizing what was going on. Hatred surged within her uncontrollably. Watching Gong Ou's face gradually approaching, Shi Xiaonian suddenly turned her head aside and bit down on Gong Ou's neck with all the remaining strength she had, refusing to let go. Her teeth sank deeply into his skin. This was her last act of resistance.
"Ah—" Gong Ou let out a low cry of pain, roughly pushing her head away. He reached out to cover his neck, and when he opened his hand, there was a patch of bright red blood in his palm. She really bit hard.
"You woman..." Gong Ou was about to berate her when he lowered his eyes and saw that Shi Xiaonian, pushed by him, had hit her head on the flat display screen and had already fainted on the lie detector chair.
She fainted just like that. She was even more fragile than glass. Gong Ou raised his hand, about to punch her in the face. Shi Xiaonian was unconscious, and tears were streaming down from her closed eyes, looking so fragile and pitiful... without any trace of affectation. Gong Ou's gaze froze, his palm stiff in mid-air, and his heart seemed to be struck by something. An indescribable feeling welled up inside him.
"Master, why are you bleeding?" Feng De, the butler, walked in from outside. Seeing the blood on Gong Ou's neck, he exclaimed in worry at once. "I'll go and get the first aid kit right away."
"Wait a moment." Gong Ou said coldly. He scooped Shi Xiaonian up horizontally from the lie detector chair and walked towards his bedroom, lowering his head to cover her lips as he walked. The sweetness of her lips was even better than sweet spring water. This, he didn't tell her.
Pain. It hurt so much.
Shi Xiaonian woke up hazily on the bed. A beam of sunlight shone in through the large window, illuminating the big European-style decorated bedroom. The purple floor-length curtain added a touch of softness. In this softness, the smooth bed sheet slowly rubbed against her skin. She was naked, her skin fair and flawless.
"Miss Shi, you're finally awake." Feng De stood aside politely and said with a smile when he saw her wake up.
Shi Xiaonian didn't say a word. She sat up on the bed in silence. The discomfort and pain made her recall those unbearable scenes all at once. Several times, she had woken up in pain, yet Gong Ou had completely ignored her wishes. She had fainted in pain and then woken up again in pain... That brute didn't even spare her when she was unconscious. Her body... seemed to have become his toy that he could play with as he liked.
"Miss Shi, would you like something to eat? There are 36 chefs from all over the world in the kitchen, with different flavors. You can have whatever you want." Feng De said.
"When can I be released?" Shi Xiaonian leaned against the headboard, her face pale, her voice a bit hoarse, and her eyes dull and despairing.
