Without waiting for Gu Qingyan's reply, Xu Zhaozhao directly shoved the card into Gu Qingyan's hand and made him hold it.
Xu Zhaozhao, still smiling, turned over the cards in her hand, revealing a large "Ace of Hearts," leaving no room for doubt.
"Sorry baby, I'm the king this round."
Just like she had pinched Yu Yu's face countless times, Xu Zhaozhao raised her hand and gently pinched Gu Qingyan's face.
A person who is handcuffed has no agency whatsoever.
Playing the game again would only give her the status of a "king," a symbol of power.
"Then,"
Gu Qingyan had no objections, but his voice was still hoarse: "Let the King punish me."
The punishment was justified.
The familiar touch returned to his waist, gently pinching his waist muscles.
But it's different.
This time, there were no barriers between them; their skin was touching.
If he weren't used to suppressing his voice, he wouldn't have been able to control himself from making such shameful noises.
He could maintain a calm facade, but his ears, red enough to drip blood, spoke volumes.
The corners of her eyes were also a little red.
Xu Zhaozhao said with amusement, "You can't even handle this little punishment?"
"You continue."
This was the first time Gu Qingyan had avoided Xu Zhaozhao's probing gaze.
With the hoarsest voice, he spoke the most stubborn words.
For a moment, Xu Zhaozhao couldn't tell whether continuing was torture or a reward.
She moved to a different spot, touched his face, and traced the reddened corners of his eyes with her fingertips. It looked better than any makeup could create.
Her red nail polish made his eyes appear even redder.
Being in a high position is fucking awesome.
With her palm down, she placed it on Gu Qingyan's fair skin, making the contrast between the two even more pronounced.
On his neck, there were still the marks she had just made, but they had mostly faded, leaving only faint red marks.
How could that be?
Driven by emotion, Xu Zhaozhao lowered her head and bit Gu Qingyan hard on the neck.
He felt a slight pain in his neck, but it didn't last long before Xu Zhaozhao stepped back.
Xu Zhaozhao was finally satisfied when she saw the red marks on his neck with beads of blood.
It was through Gu Qingyan that Xu Zhaozhao realized she had a destructive streak.
Gu Qingyan remained silent in the face of her actions, merely watching her as if eagerly anticipating her planting a seed.
"Good girl."
Xu Zhaozhao patted the back of Gu Qingyan's head, as if she were comforting a large dog.
Although he now doesn't even have as much space as a puppy.
The light from the laser paper was reflected in Xu Zhaozhao's hand, attracting Gu Qingyan's attention.
Xu Zhaozhao was holding an unopened strawberry candy in her hand at some point. The candy swayed in her hand, and the light shimmered in it as well.
“Good children deserve a reward.”
As she spoke, Xu Zhaozhao tore open the wrapper of the strawberry candy in her hand. "Want some candy, baby?"
He nodded, the jingling of the chains betraying his eagerness.
But Gu Qingyan didn't get the candy. Instead, he watched as Xu Zhaozhao put it in her mouth, her undisguised gaze fixed on him.
Her eyes seemed to say: If you want to eat, come and get it yourself.
His self-control completely crumbled.
Ring bell…
The sound of chains clanging rang out irregularly, mixed with the clanging of metal.
Snap.
Gu Qingyan slammed his head against the wall, extinguishing the only, dim nightlight.
The room was completely dark, with only the clanging of chains continuing.
When the lights went out and Gu Qingyan's arms were tightly wrapped around her, Xu Zhaozhao knew...
This is huge!
The wrist adorned with Buddhist prayer beads pressed against her waist with more force than ever before, making its presence extremely noticeable.
The air in her lungs was compressed, and the candy was no longer with her; only the scattered strawberry scent lingered.
Actually, kissing Gu Qingyan is a very enjoyable thing—especially now that he doesn't kiss her until she's covered in bruises like he used to.
Surrounded by darkness, Xu Zhaozhao's senses were overwhelmed by the kiss, and she felt no fear.
What brought her back to her senses was the sudden bitterness mixed into the sweet strawberry flavor in her mouth.
Xu Zhaozhao frowned and forcefully separated from Gu Qingyan.
*Smack*
She reached behind Gu Qingyan and turned on the brightest overhead light in the room.
Xu Zhaozhao had her back to the light source, but her eyes could still see most of the scene clearly.
Gu Qingyan was facing the light source, his tearful eyes looking hazy and broken.
Tears continued to stream down his face, and Xu Zhaozhao hurriedly wiped them away with her hands, but one tear after another fell.
They were fine just now, so why did this person start crying while they were kissing?
Tick-tock, tick-tock...
Where did that sound come from?
Xu Zhaozhao's eyes moved away from Gu Qingyan's face, slowly descending to his wrists, where her pupils contracted slightly.
The handcuffs had been stretched to their limit, and Gu Qingyan was using brute force to fight them off, his wrists were raw and bloody from the friction.
Bright red blood dripped onto the wood-grain floor, stinging Xu Zhaozhao's eyes.
"Gu Qingyan, have you gone mad?!"
Then I quickly looked at his feet, and they were also chafed, but not as badly as his hands.
Clang...
Xu Zhaozhao took out the key and unlocked all three handcuffs on Gu Qingyan, glaring at him angrily.
"You can die anywhere, just don't die here!"
She threw the key on the ground, where it bounced several times; she was absolutely furious with him.
She had just turned around when Gu Qingyan pulled her back and pressed her hard into his arms.
He still smells bad; the smell of blood overpowers all other odors.
"Get out of my way!"
Xu Zhaozhao's muffled voice came from his arms, "Do you want to bleed to death?"
He heard her voice, but Gu Qingyan still wouldn't let go, resting his head on her shoulder and gripping her shoulder even tighter.
Xu Zhaozhao could feel his tears falling onto her clothes.
"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry..."
No matter what Xu Zhaozhao said, he just kept repeating this sentence.
"Baby, it really hurts."
After saying this, Gu Qingyan lowered his head and refused to speak anymore, only holding Xu Zhaozhao and silently shedding tears.
He deserves to die for causing Zhaozhao such pain...
His already sinful life was further burdened with new sins.
Xu Zhaozhao was too lazy to persuade him anymore, so she just let him hold her and cry.
After some time, Xu Zhaozhao felt that he had cried enough, so she nudged him and said, "If you don't bandage yourself, you'll really bleed to death."
"Wait a little longer."
He spoke with a nasal tone.
What are you waiting for?
Xu Zhaozhao didn't understand, but she knew she couldn't persuade her, so she just waited.
One minute later, he released Xu Zhaozhao on his own.
Looking at the bloodstains on the ground, she remained calm, as if she were observing someone else's bloodshed. "So you bled so much that day..."
Xu Zhaozhao instantly got goosebumps all over her body.
madman!
A meticulous madman!
His way of apologizing was to reenact what Xu Zhaozhao had experienced in the dark room on himself.
Even the blood they bleed must be the same...
