24 That Was Her Life (2/2)

They honestly thought she wouldn't feel hurt?

Chu Lui's eyes were so dark that she almost lost herself in its depth. He suddenly lowered his head and firmly kissed the woman on her lips. His heart was actually aching for her as he looked at her in her pitiful state.

To his surprise, he could not tolerate her attitude to abandon herself to despair. He knew where she went. Every action she did was completely under his control. She was bullied and beaten at the Xia family. She wandered along the streets for several hours after that. When she returned to the mansion, she had to do the laundry. He had no idea what went through her mind. No idea at all.

He thought he would have felt happy or excited. However, he was wrong. He had experienced the thrill of exacting his revenge, but he also felt his heart ached.

Damn woman. He kissed her hard on the lips. The impact was so great that it might have worn her lips off. They could both taste blood between their lips. It had started bleeding when they met. Would it have ended with one of them dead?

Xia Ruoxin could feel the surge of pressure between her lips. It was as though he had consumed her soul. She shook her head. She passively received his nearly frantic abuse.

He bit on her lip. After a long while, he finally released the woman. She could barely catch her breath.

”Do not make me angry the next time, woman.” He placed his finger on her lips. There was something hidden behind his dark eyes. She blinked in confusion and an indescribable cold shiver went down her body.

”Was what I said clear? You won't be able to bear the consequences if you provoke me. If you want to live a decent life, listen well and be good.” He lightly patted her face. His voice might be mild, but it sounded cold and hard. Rather than calling it a warning, one might as well say it was a command or even a curse.

Xia Ruoxin pursed her lips. She felt some discomfort. There were scars, deep and shallow, hidden under her eyes. Was this his way of showing her his concern?
