24 That Was Her Life (1/2)

Xia Ruoxin put her hand against her stomach. There was cold sweat on her forehead. It hurts there.

She simply rested for a while. Then, she put her hands once again into the cold, icy water to continue with the laundry. However, it wasn't her clothes.

A bigger hand suddenly grabbed at her own. She looked up, a pair of dark eyes that could absorb a man's soul greeted her. It was so gloomy that she could no longer escape from his curse. As unfortunate as it was and as cruel as it seemed, she was resigned to that fate.

”You don't want to live anymore?” His voice was extremely deep but his gaze landed on her stomach. Was she unaware that her uterus had suffered a severe trauma? And that the one who had caused it was him?

”Isn't this what you wanted?” She pulled her hands out of his grasp. She continued to put both of them into the cold water in a fit of anger. Or rather, it was more from being wronged?

Now he was accusing her.

”You can rest assured that I will not die. I know you are not done torturing me.”

She did not wish to sound like that, but she had said them out of anger. Regardless, those words still came out from her mouth even if she did not mean them. She was not usually that bold. She had gotten used to adversity. She had gotten used to days like that in the Xia family. But today, she was done tolerating.

”Enough!” Chu Lui's dark eyes became darker. He suddenly grabbed her shoulders with both his hands. He could see the crystal-like tears forming on her bare face.
