Chapter 77 Chapter 77 "No, please." ...
When she heard the words "Don't betray me", her mind suddenly went blank and her whole body stiffened. She didn't even realize that he was over.
Until Shen Xingchuan lowered his head to look into her eyes and gently patted her back: "Xia Xia, what's wrong with you?"
Her face was too pale, and she lay there lifeless.
Shen Xingchuan, feeling somewhat guilty, held her in his arms and carefully soothed her, saying, "Xia Xia, I'm sorry. I haven't seen you in so long that I can't control myself."
He didn't expect Xia Xia to be so fragile and timid, and couldn't stand even the slightest bit of roughness.
She closed her legs with difficulty and looked into Shen Xingchuan's eyes. There was a mixture of satisfaction after a good meal and deep guilt in them, making him look very innocent.
But just now, that face was filled with murderous intent, as if he wanted to eat her alive. That big hand always inadvertently touched her neck, wanting to use force but desperately holding back.
It turned out that even though he didn't recall anything about that night, hatred for her still grew deep in his heart, so much so that he wanted to torture her like this and even wanted to kill her.
Yao Yingxia seemed to be afraid of him again, her eyes full of helplessness and fear.
Shen Xingchuan couldn't stand such a gaze and covered her eyes with his hands: "Xia Xia, don't look at me like that." He was afraid that he would lose control of himself if he was stimulated even a little bit.
Fortunately, Yao Yingxia finally calmed down and said with a gentle smile: "I know, you are just sick."
This illness was caused by her, but it was also Shen Xingchuan's own fault. If he hadn't pushed her so hard, leaving her no chance to breathe, how could this series of bad things have happened?
Yao Yingxia just didn't expect that the boomerang aimed at Shen Xingchuan would eventually fall on her.
The arc of her lips seemed to grow even wider. Yao Yingxia had always known that she was not a child favored by God.
Shen Xingchuan was very happy that she was so considerate and kissed her cheek: "Xia Xia is my panacea."
Yao Yingxia seemed to be amused by this metaphor. She wondered blankly, who could be her life-saving straw, helping her to see the light and escape from this nightmare that haunted her day and night?
The man in front of her was already terrifyingly powerful. Anyone who wanted to drag her out of this quagmire would eventually be severely retaliated against. Yao Yingxia, who had come to her senses, naturally would not provoke Xiao An again.
Seeing her slightly absent-minded look, Shen Xingchuan felt uneasy again. He touched Yao Yingxia's face and made her look at him, his eyes full of inquiry: "What are you thinking about?"
Her eyes moved slightly, and she subconsciously avoided his gaze, but soon turned back and looked at him and smiled: "Carry me to take a shower."
He smiled, without any trace of the fierce look he had just shown. "I'm very happy to do so."
Even though Shen Xingchuan had been ill for a long time and his muscles had obviously become much thinner, it was still easy for him to pick her up.
When cleaning her body, Shen Xingchuan discovered that Yao Yingxia's waist was bruised by his scratches again, and there were some obvious marks on her body. He had obviously learned to restrain himself and not be so rude again, but he didn't expect that all his efforts would be wasted again.
He held Yao Yingxia's hand in frustration, and just as he was about to say something, he found that something was wrong with her nails. They used to have a round and beautiful shape, but now two of them were unusually short, as if they were accidentally broken and grew back.
Shen Xingchuan lifted her hand and asked, "How did you do that?"
Yao Yingxia subconsciously clenched her fingers, but he then spread them out one by one.
This was because he was trying to stop Xiao An from killing him. He broke it during the struggle and it still hadn't healed after three weeks. He didn't expect him to be so attentive.
Yao Yingxia started to lie again: "The suitcase was too heavy, I didn't hold it firmly."
Shen Xingchuan nodded and touched her fingers with some heartache: "I'll send someone to accompany you on the plane and help you carry your luggage."
She immediately refused: "No, I'm not a child."
Twenty-eight-year-old Shen Xingchuan thought she was no different from a child, but he didn't want to make her angry again, so he didn't insist.
Perhaps because of her guilty conscience, Yao Yingxia didn't want to see him again and simply turned her back. At this time, her long hair, which had been washed, was piled up high, revealing her entire neck, which was slender and weak. Shen Xingchuan almost uncontrollably reached out and held that place, gently kissing her neck from behind.
Yao Yingxia was about to dodge when another arm wrapped around her waist. His fingers on the other side slowly moved down from her chin to the middle of her collarbone, repeating this action over and over again.
Even though he was awake, he still had an unusual obsession with her neck. Yao Yingxia was very resistant to such touches, always afraid that he would use all his strength in the next second and clench his palm tightly.
But she couldn't hide.
The kiss on the back of her neck eventually turned into a somewhat forceful sucking. Her skin was too delicate, and soon he left a bright red mark. But this seemed far from enough. Shen Xingchuan suddenly bit her, and his hard teeth sank deeply into her skin. She screamed, and Shen Xingchuan woke up as if from a dream and released his hand that was controlling her.
Yao Yingxia covered the back of her neck and could still feel obvious teeth marks. Being treated like this in her most sensitive part was not only painful, but also made her feel extremely insecure. No matter how much she could endure it, Yao Yingxia was very angry at this moment. Two flames seemed to be burning in her eyes. She asked him coldly, "Are you a dog?"
Shen Xingchuan really wanted to tell her that sleeping with a dog was not a glorious thing, but he knew Yao Yingxia was easily provoked and was afraid that if he really said that, he would be kicked out. In the end, he just grabbed her hand and put it on his face, looking at her sincerely and apologizing: "Xia Xia, I was wrong, hit me."
She thought back to that early morning a long time ago, the first time she slept with Shen Xingchuan.
She was drowsy due to the side effects of the medicine. When she woke up, her skin and flesh were sore all over. Her waist and legs felt like they had been pulled apart. The arm across her waist made it hard for her to breathe. Yao Yingxia turned her head stiffly and saw the face so close to her that it made her feel depressed.
In her sleep, Shen Xingchuan even called her his niece, which made her feel sick. Yao Yingxia took a long bath in the bathroom, almost steaming herself to death.
Later, Shen Xingchuan woke up at some point, and fearing that she would lose her mind, he kicked open the bathroom door and took her out. He did the same thing back then, letting her vent her anger by hitting him.
That was the first time Yao Yingxia hit someone. Her hands were sore from slapping them, but Shen Xingchuan became excited again under her slap.
How can people be so shameless?
Yao Yingxia took a deep breath and didn't want to reward him anymore. She just withdrew her hand with an unusually cold expression: "I don't abuse animals." After saying that, she pushed Shen Xingchuan away and walked out. "You sleep in the second bedroom."
When Shen Xingchuan chased after him, the door of the master bedroom had already been locked.
He coaxed her outside the door for a long time, apologizing and assuring her: "Xia Xia, I was wrong, let me in."
"We haven't seen each other for twenty-three days."
"I can't sleep without you in my arms."
"I promise I won't bite you again."
Yao Yingxia was unmoved, and he insisted on not leaving. The two of them were in a stalemate for a long time until he started to get angry.
The room finally became quiet, as if there was no living person. Shen Xingchuan's eyes were filled with gloom and moisture.
Xia Xia hated him and wanted to completely isolate him from the world. In fact, he knew clearly that the door had never been open to him.
No matter how gentle, considerate and caring Yao Yingxia was, she knew she was sick and couldn't sleep all night, but she refused to go back to City A to see him. Now that he had come all the way here, Yao Yingxia still refused to be his antidote.
He smiled silently, and finally spoke again: "I'm very curious, why didn't you go back to City A for three weeks and didn't even visit your mother."
Even if he didn't mean anything else, Yao Yingxia always felt it was a threat whenever Xu Nian was mentioned. She finally couldn't pretend to sleep any longer and sat up from the bed.
Then he heard his tone soften and rise slightly: "You just don't want to see me?"
Although he often indulged himself and became addicted to the fantasies that Yao Yingxia created for him, he thought that she loved him.
But he is not stupid after all.
It’s just that people are extremely desperate. If they don’t give themselves some hope, they may not even be able to maintain superficial peace.
He couldn't force Yao Yingxia to death.
But now he was truly angry. Shen Xingchuan never had a good temper. He recounted her actions in detail: "First week, you said you were having your period and feeling unwell. I can understand that. But second week, how could that lousy sandbox competition be more important than meeting your mother? This week, I didn't ask, and you didn't say anything. You just wanted to get away with it, right?"
She knew clearly how serious his illness was, but she still watched coldly from the sidelines, perhaps hoping that he would die so that she could find another man.
He was so angry that the veins in his arms were tense. He tried hard to control himself and not smash the door.
The next second the door opened by itself. Yao Yingxia stood barefoot on the ground with her brows lowered. She didn't speak or look at him, but just made way for him.
This was the Yao Yingxia he was very familiar with, without any disguise, cold and aloof, and a little impatient. She opened the door out of helplessness, not out of softness or other reasons for considering him.
Shen Xingchuan stretched out his hand and stroked the beautiful yet cold face in a condescending manner: "I have nightmares every day when you are not around."
She was tired of living in fear and treading on thin ice every day, and she was tired of letting him control her. She finally asked directly, "Did you dream that I was cheating on you?"
He suddenly applied force with his knuckles, forcing her chin up high, and his eyes scraped across every inch of her face like a knife, not wanting to miss any faint expression: "How did you know?" He had only told this to the incompetent psychiatrist.
The long period of mental tension and extreme physical fatigue made her look exceptionally calm. Even when facing Shen Xingchuan's terrifying gaze, she did not reveal any flaws.
"You just said, 'Don't leave me,' 'Don't betray me.'" She widened her eyes slightly, as if seeking an answer. "How can I leave? And how dare I betray you?"
Shen Xingchuan keenly understood the meaning behind her words. It wasn't that he didn't want to leave, but that he couldn't do it. It wasn't that he didn't want to betray her, but that he didn't dare to act on it.
His head and heart ached together, and his face was filled with horror: "Xia Xia, aren't you very good at lying? Why don't you coax me this time?"
Just like before.
Say you won't leave me.
Say you won't betray me.
Please, Xia Xia.
As he prayed, Yao Yingxia began to laugh. Her expression was incredibly gentle, but her voice was icy cold: "Whether I coax you or not, I'll only get this kind of treatment. Why should I bother?"
Everything she did was just to make herself feel better, and it never had anything to do with him.
Shen Xingchuan laughed along with her, applauding her for being so frank and reckless. "Xia Xia, you probably don't know this yet, but 'this kind of treatment' is already a form of leniency on my part."
Yao Yingxia was picked up and thrown onto the bed. Soon the mattress beside her sank. Shen Xingchuan was slowly unbuttoning his pajamas.
His eyes were so scary that Yao Yingxia felt a great danger. Just as she was about to turn over and get out of bed, he grabbed her arm again. Shen Xingchuan only used a little force and Yao Yingxia fell back into his arms.
If she hadn't seen the medical records sent by Nie Yuan, she would have thought that Shen Xingchuan was faking illness. No patient would be so enthusiastic and unrestrained.
She tried to make her voice sound calm: "It's late, let's go to bed first, okay? You just got out of the hospital and your body hasn't fully recovered yet. Wait until tomorrow..."
Shen Xingchuan seemed to have no ears. Seeing that she was moving around, he simply spread her legs and controlled her under him in a kneeling position.
Yao Yingxia finally couldn't stand it anymore: "Just stop it."
He threw his pajamas aside, bent down and kissed her: "Then I can only trouble Xia Xia to be patient."
Yao Yingxia's nails were almost scratching his flesh, so Shen Xingchuan had to grab her wrist and pull it up to her head. She was so angry that she kicked him, but he quickly subdued her. She could only open her mouth and curse him: "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
Shen Xingchuan sneered, his movements becoming even more rude: "I sleep with my wife, it's only natural."
The streetlight shone faintly through the bay window of the master bedroom. Yao Yingxia saw that his eyes were frighteningly black, and his expression was a little strange. This was not the Shen Xingchuan she knew. He seemed to be completely possessed by his inner demons, wanting only to hurt her.
Why cheat?
Why betray him?
Wasn't he good enough for her?
Does he have to dig out his heart?
Will Yao Yingxia accept his heart?
Or will you step on it hard?
She never cared about his sincerity.
His complicated thoughts made him completely confused. Shen Xingchuan started to torture her without knowing the severity of the situation. Yao Yingxia was born with a small frame, and the two of them were not a good match. In the past, when he was extremely patient, Yao Yingxia could still bear it, but this time, she was completely bullied by him unscrupulously and was on the verge of collapse.
She kept dodging backwards, but Shen Xingchuan dragged her back under him without getting tired of it. The two of them fought like wrestlers until Yao Yingxia had no strength left. She could only open her mouth helplessly, gasping for breath.
In the darkness, Shen Xingchuan couldn't see her face for a moment. Otherwise, seeing Yao Yingxia's red and moist eyes, he didn't know whether he would soften his heart or bully her even more fiercely until tears shed from those beautiful eyes.
Yao Yingxia felt as if her skin and flesh were all cracking, and she kept shaking, but Shen Xingchuan showed no mercy. The fear of being pierced finally made her crawl backwards uncontrollably, but the more she resisted, the more he would retaliate. The hands holding her waist suddenly exerted force, and when she was about to break free, he pushed her back hard.
Yao Yingxia clutched the bed sheet tightly to stay awake amidst the extreme fear. Every joint in her body was tensed to the extreme. She finally shed tears and begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "No, please."
But he couldn't hear anything at all. At this moment, Shen Xingchuan had become completely deaf and deceived. He vented tirelessly, torturing her and himself. Yao Yingxia suffered in pain for a long time, and finally waited until everything was over.
Neither of them had the energy to take a shower. Shen Xingchuan only had time to pull her into his arms before falling asleep.
It had been a long time since he had slept such a long and comfortable sleep. When he woke up again, it was sunset and the quilt beside him was already empty, without a trace of warmth left.
His chest pain seemed to be completely relieved, but his head felt heavy again. Shen Xingchuan couldn't even remember what happened last night. He only knew that he had a sound sleep while holding Yao Yingxia in his arms.
But now she is gone.
A sense of melancholy washed over him. Shen Xingchuan put on his clothes and went to the living room. "Xia Xia, are you still there?"
The whole house was empty, there was no sign of her anywhere, and there were no messages from her on the phone. Shen Xingchuan tried to call Yao Yingxia's cell phone, but no one answered.
This day was Saturday, and she shouldn't have anything important to do, so she shouldn't have left without saying goodbye.
Shen Xingchuan waited until dark, but Yao Yingxia didn't come back, so he had to call the school. After several twists and turns, someone finally called back and said that Yao Yingxia was very safe and was in the dormitory.
Shen Xingchuan found it hard to believe. It was a nice weekend and a rare gathering, but why did she run back to the dormitory alone instead of staying with him?
Shen Xingchuan sent her a lot of messages:
"Xia Xia?"
"What’s wrong with you?"
“Why didn’t you answer the phone?”
“Why don’t you reply to the message?”
"I'm really sorry about what happened last night. Can you please stop being angry?"
"Come home with me, I'll wait for you downstairs in the dormitory."
He stood there for nearly five hours, being watched by everyone like a monkey, but in the end he still didn't get to wait for Yao Yingxia.
Shen Xingchuan was truly furious. In the past, Yao Yingxia would occasionally lose her temper, but he at least knew the crux of the matter and could find a way to resolve it. Now, being silently thrown into the Heavenly Prison, even if he had supernatural powers, he couldn't use them.
Shen Xingchuan could only temporarily return to Yao Yingxia's house. On the bed filled with her scent, he could at least get a good night's sleep again.
Shen Xingchuan hadn't had a drop of water all day and didn't feel hungry at the moment. He took a shower and then returned to the master bedroom. When he lifted the quilt, he was stunned.
There were a few bloodstains on the bed sheet, which had become stained due to oxidation.
He remembered Yao Yingxia's menstrual period very clearly, which was at the end of every month, but now it was in the middle of the month.
He finally vaguely remembered that the two of them seemed to have had a big fight last night, and he was so angry that he couldn't control himself and had no control over himself.
No wonder Xia Xia ignored him.
But he couldn't remember exactly how the quarrel started or what they were arguing about.
Shen Xingchuan fell into great panic, and there was really something wrong with his brain.
