Yi Hao was like an enraged beast, with red eyes that seemed like they were about to devour a person. He glared fiercely at An Li who was lying on the ground, while veins stood out on his handsome forehead.
”Ihao?” She sat on the ground, unable to control herself, and backed away a few steps. At the same time, Li Mei and Xu Meng were frightened by the sudden turn of events, their faces turning pale. They were shivering in a corner.
At that moment, the headmaster came rushing in, and seeing the situation before him, he broke out in a cold sweat, especially when he saw the murderous look on Ihao's face.
Yi Hao glared fiercely at the three of them, his gaze landing on a corner of the room. He couldn't make out any expression, not even an expression of grievance or pain. He creased his good-looking brows, finally suppressing the urge to curse her. He moved to her side and crouched down. He tried to pick her up.
However, when she felt his arms around her, she shrank back.
The light in the bathroom was so dark that he couldn't see the expression on her face, except for a smudge of blood at the corner of her mouth. Similarly, Warmth couldn't see his expression. She could only use her sense of smell to check if he was angry or dangerous.
”Young Master, please let me go!” The two of them had to confront each other like this for who knows how long before Warmth gathered up his courage and whispered. Of course, she knew the consequences of saying such words. Perhaps, in a fit of anger, he would be able to return her to her original form, the one that was worth nothing at all. A lowly maid. However, if this carried on, she would really go crazy. She would be forced to go crazy by him alive. *
His good intentions were not genuine, but purposeful. She did not want to live her life in a trap or scheme, becoming a ridiculous chess piece in the hands of others.
Although she had lost herself because of Leng Kui, she was willing to shoulder all the crimes. However, when the waves of injuries came one after another, she finally realized that she was also a person. She wanted to ”live normally”, and she also wanted to be respected. She wasn't like this, where she would be despised or envied by others.
Whether it was Ihao's hatred or his love, she could not afford it. Suddenly, he remembered what Leng Kui had told her back then. She and Yi Hao were indeed people from different worlds. Not ten years ago, not ten years later.
”Cold and warm, what do you mean by that?” the sudden chill in his face was drowned by the darkness. Asking him to let her go? What did she mean by that? Did she still think he was torturing her? Could it be that she couldn't tell that he really wanted to be nice to her?
Asking him to let her go? Ha ha ~, what a ridiculous sentence.
Warmth bit her lip, lowered her eyes, and did not dare meet his. Although the light was dim, Ihao's eyes could only shine. Her eyes were cold and piercing, but she could still see it clearly.
”Young Master... If this goes on, I'll die, you know? I will die! ” The tears that he had struggled to hold back burst out again at this moment. She had never known that a love affair ten years ago would turn out to be such a sin. That kind of pain could tear one's heart and lungs apart. That kind of pain was thousands to tens of thousands of times more painful than that kind of pain …
Love hurts, but not love hurts more.
Her life was over. Right now, all she wanted to do was find a way out, escape far, far away …
”As long as I am here, no one will dare to hurt you!” At the same time, he reached out his hand, and regardless of whether or not Warmth resisted, or accepted, or whatever it was, he pulled her directly out of the corner, took her in his arms, and walked out.
