Chapter 93 The fiery kiss felt incredibly good.
Xin Mian's wrists were red, but Chi Yu didn't let her do it. He naturally picked up the bowl in front of her and prepared to feed her.
Little Dimple sat opposite the two of them. Her hands and feet were also tied by Li Ruifa. At this moment, Li Ke was sitting next to her, feeding her with a small porcelain spoon. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Xin Mian and Chi Yu. Curious, she turned her head and looked at them with her big, grape-like eyes.
Xin Mian felt her gaze, her cheeks flushed, and she reached out to help, saying, "I can do it myself..."
Little Dimple frowned. "Teacher Xiaomian, you're injured."
The implication is that someone else should feed them.
Did you hear that?
Chi Yu still didn't let her take the bowl, saying, "Don't feel embarrassed."
After saying this, he looked at Xin Mian seriously again, "You can feed her even if she's not injured."
Xinmian's face turned even redder.
"...Grandma and Little Dimple are still alive..."
Chen Xiulian smiled with relief, but fearing that Xinmian would be shy, she could only lower her head and try her best to suppress the corners of her mouth.
Li Ke pinched Xiao Liwo's cheek, turned her head back, and stopped her from looking at Xin Mian. "Focus on drinking your porridge."
Even Fatty Orange, who was originally facing their chubby, round faces, has now turned to face the wall and is reflecting on his mistakes.
Chi Yu scooped up a spoonful of porridge, blew on it to keep it warm, and brought it to Xin Mian's lips. "Don't worry, now there's no one and no cat watching over you."
Xin Mian glanced at the porridge that was right in front of her, and, suppressing her embarrassment, let him feed her spoonful by spoonful.
It was already past midnight when they finished the porridge. Little Dimple would be sleeping in a room on the first floor with Chen Xiulian tonight, and the old lady took her in to take a bath.
Li Ke went back to the second floor.
Only Xin Mian and Chi Yu remained in the living room. The main lights were off, and only a floor lamp next to the sofa was still on.
Without saying a word, the man bent down and picked her up horizontally.
He was very strong; when he held her, he even lifted her up so that she could rest against the crook of his neck.
With a slight lift of her eyes, she could see the short stubble on the back of his head, which, in the dim light, didn't seem so stiff.
Xin Mian stared at it for several seconds, then, with a slight thought, she raised her hand and gently touched it.
It's still a bit tough.
Chi Yu's tall body visibly stiffened, but only for a moment before he continued to stride steadily forward.
I went up the stairs to the third floor and carried her to the bathroom.
He put her on a small stool in the bathroom, helped her run a bath, and then went back to get her pajamas.
Xinmian sat there obediently, watching him bustling about. His broad, upright shoulders cast long shadows in the bathroom. Whenever she saw him, she felt at ease.
After preparing everything, Chi Yu squatted down next to her, making a move to take off her clothes, but she grabbed him and said, "I'll wash them myself."
How do you wash yourself?
He held her hand, his fingertips lightly touching the area around the bruise, not daring to apply too much pressure.
Xinmian was also somewhat troubled.
She had injuries not only on her hands but also on her feet, making it very difficult for her to wash herself.
But let him wash...
She glanced up at him furtively, her mind inappropriately recalling every memory from the past.
When the two of them showered together, almost every time things went wrong.
Seemingly sensing her thoughts, Chi Yu gently pinched her cheek, his voice somewhat deep, "I'm not a beast."
Given her condition, how could he possibly still only be thinking about pornographic waste?
After saying that, he picked her up and quickly and skillfully took off her clothes, then led her to sit in the bathtub that was already filled with water.
Incidentally, he also thoughtfully placed her feet and hands on the edge of the bathtub so they wouldn't touch the water.
This pose...
She was practically sitting in his lap, both of them naked, skin to skin, she was like a kitten with its limbs bound, lying slipperily on his chest.
It's a very strange and ugly pose.
Especially when the two were too close, he was almost used as a human cushion by her, and the water temperature could not isolate the burning, hard touch transmitted from his muscles.
He was clearly itching to do something, but he was trying hard to restrain himself.
Xinmian felt very uncomfortable being poked by him.
But he kept his word and focused on helping her bathe the whole time, without making any unnecessary movements.
Even so, she couldn't stop trembling when the man's rough palms scraped against her tender skin with the slippery foam.
Xin Mian felt a little ashamed and shook her head in his arms, "I remember..."
"good."
His voice was hoarse. He pulled her up by the waist with his big hand, took her to the shower to rinse off the foam, wrapped her tightly in a bath towel, carried her back to the bedroom and onto the big bed, and helped her put on her nightgown.
Then I went back to the bathroom to pack my things.
When Chi Yu came out of the bathroom, Xin Mian was trembling as she reached for the medicine on the table to apply to her wound.
He strode over, picked her up, and took the medicine from the table with him, then returned to the bedside.
No matter how careful I was, the wound still got damp from the steam in the bathroom while I was showering.
Several hours later, the skin around the wound became even more red and swollen, but thankfully, the small beads of blood had stopped oozing from the broken skin. Her skin was very fair, making the wound particularly noticeable, forming a complete circle around her.
Chi Yu knelt in front of her, his eyes lowered as he carefully applied the medicine.
Xinmian looked down at him, but could only see his thick black hair, broad shoulders, and taut, sharp jaw.
I couldn't see his expression.
But he held her hand tighter and tighter.
She could clearly feel his presence and his current emotions.
Depressed, defeated, self-blaming, heartbroken.
Xinmian raised her hand and touched his head, softly calling his name.
“Chi Yu…”
Chi Yu remained silent until he finished applying the medicine and putting the things away, then sat down beside her and pulled her into his arms.
"Baby, I'm sorry."
He held her tightly, his broad chest slightly contracting, enveloping her, just like he had done at the police station entrance, almost as if he wanted to melt her into his very bones.
Xinmian hugged him back and shook her head in his arms, "No need to apologize, you arrived just in time."
He didn't do anything wrong, so he doesn't need to apologize.
Neither of them spoke again, and they simply held each other quietly.
Until...
Xinmian felt like she couldn't breathe.
He hugged her too tightly.
“Chi Yu…”
She spoke up to remind him.
Chi Yu reluctantly let go, and in that position, he rolled into the quilt with her, supporting her waist and gently lifting her up before pulling the quilt over her.
Then he reached for the thermos on the bedside table and held the straw to her lips.
Xinmian gulped down several mouthfuls of water, then pushed his hand away and shook her head, indicating that she had had enough.
The row of small lamps by the bedside were all on, shining down at an angle, casting a halo of light on her.
The water droplets on the lips were made even more noticeable by the smudging.
Chi Yu's eyes darkened, and he put his arm around her shoulder and leaned down to kiss her.
This kiss is very similar to the one in the parking lot, tender and affectionate.
But it was more tender and affectionate than before, because there was no need to consider the environment.
Now it's just the two of them.
Chi Yu gently pinched her chin, raised her neck, and forced her to open her lips. His tongue probed in, soaking every inch of her lip cavity.
He was careful with his touch, licking and sucking gently, taking care of her feelings so that she wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
A tender, deep, yet soft and gentle kiss. Xinmian nestled completely relaxed in his arms, feeling so comfortable from the kiss that she almost wanted to fall asleep.
Even after the kiss ended, he reluctantly released her, and then placed his damp kisses on her forehead and the tip of her nose.
He kissed her while gently stroking her cheek, as if repeatedly confirming something.
I made sure she was right beside me, and that I could feel her breathing and heartbeat.
Even now, he is still terrified.
He dared not imagine what would have happened if he had arrived even a moment later...
Chi Yu leaned down and pulled her completely into his arms, burying his head in the crook of her neck and frantically inhaling her scent.
"Baby, thank you."
Xin Mian noticed his emotions but was somewhat puzzled. "Why are you saying thank you?"
"You saved yourself and Little Dimple."
And me too.
"What's the meaning?"
"Your phone's flash."
Li Ruifa was driving a scrapped, modified car without license plates.
In the evening, they and Officer Wang checked the surveillance footage at the kindergarten and learned that the van was heading towards Ancheng, so they immediately chased after it in that direction.
But when they arrived in Ancheng, the surveillance camera at one of the intersections was broken, and the trail went cold.
It was raining, and the road conditions were already bad.
Chi Yu could only try his best to determine Li Ruifa's purpose in order to analyze where he might go.
Fortunately, his judgment was correct.
Li Ruifa must have had other motives for taking Xin Mian and Xiao Liwo from Wangshui Island to Ancheng.
The city center is crowded with people and cars, making it difficult for him to hide, so he can only go to the suburbs.
Just as Chi Yu slowed down, not daring to miss any clues along the way, Officer Wang's notice for assistance received a response.
Ancheng traffic police received a report from the public that a vehicle on the ring road was behaving strangely.
The car had no license plate and was extremely dilapidated, which aroused even more suspicion.
Police quickly located the vehicle based on the reported location, deployed additional officers, and surrounded them directly at the abandoned factory.
The method Xinmian came up with in the car played a crucial role.
Despite the poor visibility due to the rain, she insisted on turning on her flashlight, and the light finally attracted the attention of passing vehicles, giving them a glimmer of hope.
Hearing this, Xin Mian breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking back now, everything that happened tonight feels so unreal.
She recalled Li Ruifa's face in the van, and a tightness gripped her heart.
Why can people be so depraved and insane?
He could even harm his own daughter...
"...What will be the sentence for Li Ruifa?"
She asked softly, "Will this affect what you were planning to do?"
"It will have an impact."
Chi Yu nodded. "The possibility of revokeing his guardianship is now much greater."
The fact that he committed such a heinous act against his own daughter, coupled with his previous domestic violence, inaction, and various criminal records, was enough to convince the court to agree.
As for the guardian... Chi Yu already has someone in mind, and has discussed it with Li Ke before, but it still needs the approval of the juvenile delinquency department.
The facts of Li Ruifa's trafficking of women and children are clear and the evidence is conclusive, in addition to kidnapping and intentional injury.
Chi Yu hired the best lawyer, so Li Ruifa will never be able to get out of here in his lifetime.
Li Ke and Xiao Liwo will no longer need to leave Wangshui Island for another city to deliberately avoid him; they can live wherever they want.
No one will bother them anymore.
Hearing his words, Xinmian finally felt relieved.
As soon as you relax, sleepiness immediately sets in.
So much happened today; she was exhausted, both physically and mentally, but she just kept going.
She covered her mouth and yawned. Chi Yu kissed her forehead and pulled the blanket up for her. "Go to sleep. Don't worry about what happens next."
Xinmian nodded, rested her head on his arm, and obediently closed her eyes.
......
Four o'clock in the morning.
Chi Yu suddenly woke up.
The moment he opened his eyes, he reached out to touch the spot next to him.
Xinmian turned over at some point and left his embrace.
The bedroom was pitch black. Chi Yu's chest heaved violently, but he tried to suppress his breathing and pulled her back into his arms, letting her press against him.
