214 I Love You, But I Donst Dare to Let You Know 15 (2/2)

Byron watched as Xi Bolai walked away slowly.

A sudden tension filled the air as the respective bodyguards of Byron and Xi Bolai pointed their guns at each other.

Xi Bolai entered the secret chamber after hearing his bodyguard's words.

Sitting on the bed, An Xiaoning watched as he entered again with a sinister look on his face.

”You're already in handcuffs, yet you're still trying to escape. Seems like you need to be restricted further.”

He retrieved a long chain from the drawer and chained her legs together forcefully, leaving only enough leeway for her to walk.

Xi Bolai sat down beside her and could not help but feel amused at the sight of her sulking. ”You must be infuriated at how helpless you are now. You hate the way I'm treating you, yet you can't do anything about it. I won't touch you now, but could you tell me why you insisted on getting a divorce with Jin Qingyan? Was it because his family chose Jin Qingyue over you?” he asked with a smirk on his lips.

”Why do I have to answer you?”

”You must answer me, because I would be too bored otherwise. And if I get too bored and free, I'll have to start doing you. Consider it carefully. Think about whether you'd like to answer me and wait here patiently for Jin Qingyan to arrive or to let me begin touching you right now. It's your choice.”

He was utterly despicable and unbelievable.

To the point that An Xiaoning wished she could just stab him to death with a knife and feed his flesh to the dogs after throwing him inside a meat grinder.

”Don't play dumb, speak up.”

After a few seconds of hesitation, An Xiaoning answered, ”We didn't get married because we were in love with each other. Since I don't love him, wouldn't it be better to live alone? What other reason could there be?”

”I don't know if you love him or not, but I'm sure he loves you deeply.”

”How are you so sure?”

”I'm very clear about what's happening with you two. How could you become his only weakness if he didn't love you? If he doesn't love you, he wouldn't be bothered about you at all,” said Xi Bolai, caressing her face with his hand.

An Xiaoning was struck by his words and felt incredibly touched all of a sudden.

”We were once husband and wife, after all. The fact that he doesn't wish to leave me to die in the lurch just goes to show that he's a nice and kind person. It has nothing to do with love at all.”

”Men know best what other men are thinking. You know yourself whether or not he loves you. Quit keeping me in suspense.”

Xi Bolai continued, ”I really feel like finishing you off right now. Women like you are the kind to invoke sexual urges in men.”

He laid down on the bed and pulled her into an embrace.

”Xi Bolai, have you got the guts to remove the handcuffs and chains on my ankles? Do you dare to stop holding me at gunpoint?”

”What would you do if I did?”

”I'd dig your eyeballs out.”

Instead of getting worked up, he broke into a sarcastic smile and said, ”Oh… I totally believe you would.”

An Xiaoning tried to turn towards the side to no avail as Xi Bolai was grabbing on tightly to her.

Noticing how hard she was struggling, he said, ”Why? You're not even going to let me hug you?”

”No.”

”But I'm afraid you don't have a choice. I want to do just that. What can you do to stop me? I'm tired, I'm going to take a short nap. You better not disturb me again. Otherwise, I'm really capable of doing anything,” he threatened with his eyes closed, sounding a little fatigued.

An Xiaoning stopped moving upon seeing that he had really closed his eyes. However, she felt really uncomfortable laying beside him.

Especially with her hands restricted behind her back.
