After voicing his decision out loud, Qin Muchen made his way over to her.
While Su Ziyue was still trying to fathom what he had just said, she saw him approaching her with a grim face. “What are you going to do now?”
“The same thing we’ve done earlier.”
After he said that, she was lifted off from the ground and carried away by him.
“Let me down. I don’t feel like doing it with you now.” As their discussion had turned ugly, she had no mood to do that kind of thing with him at the moment.
What was more, Qin Muchen was not himself now.
She could sense danger from him at the moment.
Real danger.
“It’s not up to you.” Qin Muchen kept her in a firm hold while he took her back to the bedroom, allowing her to flail in his arms.
Then, he thrusted her onto the bed in a movement which was not at all gentle.
The rough landing on the bed hurt. Before she could sit upright from the bed, Qin Muchen had already pressed his body on her and removed the belt of her bathrobe to tie her hands with it.
Su Ziyue could only try to kick him away as she could no longer use her hands.
“Qin Muchen, let me go! I don’t feel like doing it now!”
“I’ve said it’s not up to you.”
Using one hand to grab hold of one of her legs and lift it up, he then buried himself into her.
Su Ziyue’s body was rigid because she was nervous and resisting him. As soon as he went inside her, he let out a muffled groan and his dark eyes turned even more gloomy and profound.
Without him realizing, he started exerting more force on his hold on her ankle.
Su Ziyue, who was totally immobile under his weight, gritted her teeth and glared at him resentfully. “Qin Muchen… what you’re doing now is no different to rape!”
Her comment caused him to pause, and he squinted his eyes slightly in which traces of eeriness could be seen surfacing.
He moved his hands to grab her chin forcefully and threatened, “Rape? Ha! In that case, you might as well behave or you might have to suffer later!”
With that, he let go of her chin and wrapped his arms around her waist. Other than the parts of their bodies which had come together, he did not touch the rest of her body again.
…
Su Ziyue woke up early the next morning.
The room was filled with the smell of lust.
She could hear the sound of water running in the bathroom and it made her groggy mind clearer at once. Her face, which was red after staying in bed for the entire night, turned as pale as a sheet in an instant.
Last night, Qin Muchen had had it for a very long time; his movement was rough and without affection.
In the very beginning, she had tried to resist him but she gradually submitted in the end.
That was because behaving would spare her from suffering.
Lying on the bed, she did not move even though the door of the bathroom was opened from which the man walked out.
She did not dare to move because it would cause her pain.
Knowing well who was walking out of the bathroom, she buried her head underneath the blanket and closed her eyes to continue her slumber.
Yet, she found herself unable to fall asleep even after shutting her eyes because her ears couldn’t resist trying to catch the stir outside.
However, she did not hear anything even after a long wait.
Is Qin Muchen gone? With the thought in mind, she removed the blanket from her head.
She was lying flat on the bed with her head tilted to one side. Therefore, as soon as she pulled the blanket away, she was greeted by the sight of a man, who was wearing a bathrobe and standing immobile in front of the bed like a wandering soul.
“Ahh!!!”
Su Ziyue, who clearly had not seen that coming, was so frightened that she let out a shrill scream. When she saw that it was Qin Muchen, she became alarmed at once even though she had just calmed down.
He was watching her with a gloomy expression on his face. Clutching the blanket tightly, Su Ziyue did not dare to move around or pull the blanket back over her.
In the end, Qin Muchen only stared at her for several seconds before turning around and leaving the room.
The sound of the door being closed gave her another fright before she let out a sigh of relief.
Just now, she was really worried that Qin Muchen might do to her the same thing he had done the previous night.
She was traumatized by that incident and she found herself suddenly dreading the idea of having s*x.
It was only when she was totally sure that Qin Muchen had gone out, judging by the complete silence in the room, did she get out of the bed with much effort.
She then went to the bathroom to fill up the bathtub and allowed herself to immerse in the water for quite some time with her eyes closed. She only left the bathroom when she finally felt better.
Noticing a paper bag placed on the bed, she took it and found some clothes including underwear inside.
No doubt, it was Qin Muchen who had it sent over.
At the sight of the paper bag, Su Ziyue couldn’t help but think of the first night she had spent with Qin Muchen. He had had a complete set of clothing including underwear prepared for her on the following morning too.
After changing into them with no expression on her face, she opened the door and walked out of the room.
…
Her pace came to a halt when she saw Qin Muchen walking toward her as soon as she stepped out of the room.
Wearing a premium customized black suit, he looked as handsome, distinguished and elegant as usual.
Yet, there was still something different about him now.
Qin Muchen, who was eyeing her icily, said something which sent a searing pain to her heart. “I thought you were trying to kill yourself in the bathroom just now.”
With her face turning pale, she clenched her fists tightly without making a sound.
He turned around and made his way toward the restaurant. “You’d better come over and have breakfast now because I’m losing my patience.”
After what had taken place last night, Su Ziyue was extremely scared of him.
She did not feel like having breakfast at the same table with him at all.
Yet, she still went along with him at last because she had already gotten so used to following his instruction and also because she thought she was in enough luck to prevent having more unpleasant interactions with him.
By the time she arrived at the restaurant, Qin Muchen had already started having breakfast.
Although she did not have much of an appetite, she still grabbed a few bites to fill up her stomach.
After finishing his food, Qin Muchen cast a glance at her plate and frowned in a hardly noticeable manner when he saw the amount of food left on the plate.
He commented shortly after that, “It seems like what happened last night didn’t wear you out completely.”
It might be just a flirtatious remark if it was made any other day.
Yet, after experiencing the incident last night, she only felt iciness penetrating and spreading all over her body as though she was inside an icehouse after hearing such a remark from him.
She could not put a stop to the iciness which was surging through her body.
Thinking that whatever she said was not going to make any impact, she decided to just stay silent.
To her horror, it seemed like her reticence had somehow triggered one of the switches to his anger again as he suddenly swept everything on the dining table off to the floor and roared, “Go now if you don’t feel like eating. You don’t have to pull a long face here. Get out!”
Su Ziyue rose to her feet and stomped out of the restaurant the moment he uttered his last word.
She was worried that she might break into tears if she stayed one second longer.
Tears were only an effective tool when you cried in front of the person who loved you.
His reaction puzzled her because she had merely refused to have kids for the time being, having considered more things in her decision making process.
Yet, the way Qin Muchen had treated her made her feel like she had committed an unpardonable sin.
In fact, she did not think she had done anything wrong.
Because her mother had died of obstructed labour when she gave birth to her, she had an innate fear for childbirth.
But she had never thought of not having kids despite her fear.
She loved kids and hoped her kids would grow up in a healthy and blissful family.
Yet, not only was Qin Muchen not interested to listen to all these, but he also thought she had committed a heinous sin by refusing to have kids now.
