"Planning for me?"

Upon hearing Mu Ruoyan's words, a hint of doubt flashed in Lin Xihe's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by self-deprecation.

She couldn't help but think, "Can sending Xu Qi to monitor me really be called scheming?"

"Mu Ruoyan, I don't need your so-called schemes. Please, let me go, okay?" Lin Xihe's eyes were red, her voice trembling with tears. She gently tugged at Mu Ruoyan's clothes, hoping he would soften his heart.

Upon hearing this, Mu Ruoyan's eyes instantly turned sinister, and she sneered, her smile filled with chilling intent: "Let you go? If you can keep your promise, I might not be able to let you go."

"But now, you're just dreaming!"

He had never been so ruthless to Lin Xihe, not even when he had intended to torment her in the past.

Lin Xihe felt her blood freeze instantly, filled with despair.

"What do you want? What do you want me to do for you to let me go?" Her voice trembled, and helplessness spread through her heart.

Just then, Xu Qi's voice came from outside the door: "Your Majesty, the wine has been brought."

Mu Ruoyan's sinister gaze never left Lin Xihe as he said in a deep voice towards the door, "Bring her in."

Xu Qi pushed open the door and entered. Mu Ruoyan glanced at him and coldly ordered, "Put it on the table and get out."

Mu Ruoyan released Lin Xihe and strode towards the wine pot.

Lin Xihe looked at the door that was not yet closed, and her survival instinct drove her to run away.

She moved nimbly, and just as she reached the door, Mu Ruoyan pulled her back. At the same time, Xu Qi closed the door.

Before Lin Xihe could react, Mu Ruoyan slammed her hard onto the table.

Mu Ruoyan's eyes were bloodshot, and he clamped her legs tightly around hers, imprisoning her so she couldn't move.

Lin Xihe's waist ached from being pressed against the edge of the table. Mu Ruoyan then violently ripped off the lid of the wine pot with one hand, breaking the lacquer strap in the process.

He raised the wine jug high, his voice filled with anger, almost roaring: "Drinking wine means you can sleep with other people? Huh?"

Without giving Lin Xihe a chance to explain, he grabbed her chin with one hand and tilted the wine pot with the other, pouring the wine into her mouth like a raging torrent.

The spicy liquor instantly burned her throat. Lin Xihe was forced to drink a large mouthful and instinctively struggled, pushing Mu Ruoyan away with both hands and kicking wildly with her feet restrained by him.

But Mu Ruoyan had already gone mad and showed no sign of stopping, continuing to pour the wine into her mouth.

Lin Xihe choked and coughed violently, tears welling up in her eyes.

After pouring out the entire small pot of wine, Mu Ruoyan suddenly released Lin Xihe.

Lin Xihe collapsed to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut, coughing uncontrollably.

Summer clothes are already thin, and in the struggle, her clothes were disheveled at the chest, the buttons were loose, and they were soaked with alcohol, clinging tightly to her skin and outlining her disheveled figure.

"cough......"

She gasped for breath, each inhalation accompanied by a sharp pain in her throat, her chest heaving violently, her eyes filled with terror and grievance, helpless and pitiful.

Mu Ruoyan stared at Lin Xihe, who was lying on the ground in a disheveled state. The anger in his chest did not diminish in the slightest after pouring out a pot of wine; on the contrary, it burned even more fiercely.

His eyes were filled with madness and determination as he approached Lin Xihe step by step, his aura suggesting that he would devour her alive at any moment.

"You think this is the end of it?"

Mu Ruoyan gritted her teeth and squeezed out those words.

He suddenly bent down, grabbed Lin Xihe by the waist, and lifted her up from the ground.

"Cough... Let go... cough..."

Lin Xihe stared wide-eyed in horror, instinctively trying to pry Mu Ruoyan's hands off, her fingernails leaving bloody scratches on the back of his hands, but Mu Ruoyan seemed oblivious and remained unmoved.

Mu Ruoyan threw Lin Xihe onto the soft couch, then leaned down and pressed her down.

"If drinking makes you sleep with other people, then you'd better keep me company tonight!"

Mu Ruoyan roared and began frantically tearing at Lin Xihe's clothes with her other hand.

Lin Xihe struggled desperately, kicking her legs wildly and crying out in despair, "No, no! Let me go!"

Her voice echoed in the empty room, but received no response.

Lin Xihe's tears flowed freely, mixing with the still-damp wine on her face, dripping continuously down her cheeks.

At this moment, he was like a lamb to the slaughter, powerless to resist Mu Ruoyan's madness.

At this moment, Mu Ruoyan had lost all reason and was single-mindedly focused on venting her anger and pain on Lin Xihe.

"What? When you were so eager to have sex with others, didn't you ever think about my revenge today?"

"Didn't you say you couldn't even endure three months? What are you pretending to be, this virtuous and chaste woman, for?"

Mu Ruoyan was like a raging beast, his eyes bloodshot and red as if they were about to bleed. His hands were tearing at Lin Xihe's clothes wildly and roughly, the fabric hissing under the strain.

Lin Xihe frantically patted Mu Ruoyan's shoulders with both hands and kicked desperately with her feet, but all her resistance was in vain.

"No, please, don't do this!"

Lin Xihe's tearful voice echoed desperately in the room, but she could not move the man in front of her who was blinded by anger.

She gritted her teeth, used all her strength, and slapped Mu Ruoyan hard across the face.

The slap was crisp and loud, and Mu Ruoyan stopped in her tracks instantly, then chuckled softly: "Finished? Can I continue now?"

"Are you crazy?!" Lin Xihe roared hoarsely, her chest heaving violently, every word filled with endless anger and grievance: "We've never loved each other, how dare you treat me like this!"

"Never loved?"

Mu Ruoyan was thoroughly enraged by Lin Xihe's words. He used force and instantly tore off Lin Xihe's thin outer garment, exposing a large area of ​​her snow-white skin.

There were mottled hickeys on her skin, and Mu Ruoyan's brows furrowed instantly.

Lin Xihe instinctively curled up, tightly protecting herself with her hands, as if this could protect her from this nightmarish invasion.

Mu Ruoyan's breathing grew heavier. He abruptly turned Lin Xihe's face towards him, forcing her to look at him, and said through gritted teeth, "I don't care who you have in your heart. From now on, you can only look at me and think about me!"

After saying that, he ignored Lin Xihe's struggles and kissed her lips fiercely, with a punishing force, as if he wanted to imprint his mark on everything about her.

Lin Xihe's eyes widened, and the humiliation and anger in her heart made her burst out with unprecedented power. She bit Mu Ruoyan's lips hard, and in an instant, the taste of blood filled the air between their lips and teeth.

Mu Ruoyan winced in pain, released her, wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, and her eyes blazed with even more madness: "Fine, very well."

He ripped off Lin Xihe's last remaining covering, and looking at the marks on her body that weren't his own, jealousy completely clouded his mind.

"Since you like leaving traces so much, then I'll cover them all up for you!"

As Mu Ruoyan spoke, he began to leave a dense trail of kisses and teeth marks on Lin Xihe's neck and shoulders, each one filled with ruthlessness, as if he wanted to completely erase the memories of others from under her skin.
