Lan Xiaolan lay quietly on the bed, closing her eyes tightly, unable to face what was going to happen next.
Her body was trembling slightly, her hands were clenched into fists, and she tried to control her emotions.
But the tears just flowed uncontrollably, streaming down her cheeks and soaking the bedding.
Her crying became louder and louder, as if she wanted to vent all the pain and grievances in her heart.
Her voice was full of helplessness and despair, which made people feel pity.
There was no sound of a woman's shy murmur in the air, only her intermittent sobbing.
The low cries were like sharp daggers, sliding through Ren Tingxi's heart again and again.
Each time, each cut actually cut into his aorta.
The pain in his heart finally woke up the mad wolf, and Ren Tingxi finally stopped his body movements.
He straightened up and leaned over to look at the woman he had trapped beneath him.
She put one arm over her eyes, and tears flowed through her hand onto the sheets, forming a small puddle.
She was unwilling, but he was pressing on step by step.
Only then did he realize that he had done something worse than an animal.
All the attachment, love, concern and beautiful longing have been worn away with the passage of 8 years.
She is no longer the same person she used to be.
They can never go back to the way they were before.
He stood up and wanted to help Lan Xiaolan put on her clothes. When he saw the clothes torn into shreds on the ground, he realized how out of control he had just been.
He gently lifted her hand, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, slowly covered her with the quilt, then turned and walked out of the room.
He went to the bathroom without turning on the light.
He turned on the cold water in the bathroom and let the icy water wash over him.
The gurgling water spread from his head to his whole body, the cold feeling sank into his heart, and the cold pleasure rushed through his whole body.
It seemed that only in this way could the frenzy in his body and mind be extinguished.
Now, he really needs to calm down.
Lan Xiaolan felt the quilt covering her body, and she finally got rid of this predicament.
The tense body finally got a moment of peace.
In the end, Ren Tingxi still couldn't bring himself to do those things to Lan Xiaolan.
Perhaps this way of ending may be a relief for both of them.
But why did the tears in Lan Xiaolan's eyes continue to flow?
She might be crying for herself, or for him, or for both of them.
"Beep, beep...beep, beep..." At this time, Lan Xiaolan's phone rang again, and the word "Dad" was still on the phone screen.
Lan Xiaolan tried her best to regulate her breathing and tremblingly pressed the answer button.
"dad."
"Lanlan, it's so late, are you asleep?"
"Yeah, I was just about to go to bed..." Lan Xiaolan couldn't help but wake up and purse her nose. Her voice was still a little choked with sobs: "It's so late, you haven't slept yet?"
After a few words, Lan Tian realized that there was something wrong with his daughter on the phone.
"What's wrong? Why are you crying?"
"No, Dad, it's autumn now, and I caught a cold just because I felt a little cold."
"Really? I thought someone bullied you, why are you crying?"
When my father said this, I felt like I was really being bullied by someone just now, and that man was a devil.
"Dad is fine, it's just a cold. I'm taking some medicine and I'm going to rest now."
"In that case, you should get some rest. Remember to take your medicine when you get up, and drink plenty of hot water no matter how busy you are at work."
"Yeah, by the way, Dad, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"It's nothing important. I just haven't seen my precious daughter in a long time, so I wanted to call you. You should rest first, and I'll call you tomorrow."
"Okay then, goodnight Dad."
"Good night, have a sweet dream."
When Lan Xiaolan heard her father's voice on the phone, her heart finally calmed down.
Over the years, Lan Xiaolan has been working in a research institute or an ancient cemetery, and Lan Tian has been building houses for others in other places all year round, so the father and daughter have been separated for most of the time.
Fortunately, over the years, the father and daughter would call each other every few days to talk about interesting things in life.
In this world, Lan Xiaolan is Lan Tian's only thought and hope for life.
No matter how many storms they encounter outside, he will always stand behind Lan Xiaolan and protect her from the wind and rain.
It's okay. Thankfully, Dad is still here.
However, she definitely wouldn't dare to tell her father what happened between Lan Xiaolan and Ren Tingxi.
It is impossible for a girl to say such a thing to her father.
And if his father really knew about this, he would probably break Ren Tingxi's legs.
Lan Xiaolan cried and thought about her father. Thinking about her father, she felt something in her heart and soon fell asleep.
I am so tired today, my body is tired and my heart is even more tired.
After Ren Tingxi finished showering, he went to Lan Xiaolan's room wearing a towel.
When he saw her sleeping soundly, the heavy stone in his heart felt a lot lighter.
He put on his clothes, picked up the torn clothes on the ground, and seemed to be thinking about something.
Then he called Leng Lie.
"Boss, it's so late, what's going on?"
"Is there a shopping mall nearby? I want to go shopping for clothes."
"What?" It was already past 10 o'clock in the evening and the mall was about to close.
“Yes, but at this time…”
"Then drive over to pick me up in half an hour."
"No, Mr. Ren. It's very late now, and the mall is probably all closed. Otherwise, we can go to the mall tomorrow morning."
"I said, I'm going now."
Ren Tingxi said every word firmly that this was an order and did not ask for anyone's opinion.
"Tell the counter at the mall that you are willing to pay three times the price for the item, and then reimburse their round-trip taxi fare."
"I need to be at the mall within an hour."
Leng Leng didn't know what had happened to Ren Tingxi, why did he go shopping in the mall so late at night?
But why would he, a chosen worker, care so much about whys? He just did what his boss said, so why would he care so much about whys?
Leng Leng came to the alley entrance of the B&B and saw Ren Tingxi standing under the dim street light at the entrance.
He had his hands in his pockets, his expression was stern and his brows were furrowed. The dim street lights were reflected on his body, making him look violent against the backdrop of the night.
His hair was only half dry and swayed slightly in the cold autumn wind.
He didn't use a hair dryer to blow dry his hair, as he was afraid that the noise would wake Lan Xiaolan up, and he felt a little reluctant.
No matter what, at least tonight, I hope she can have a good dream peacefully.
