Gu Lianzhou's back stiffened, and his blood throbbed in his ears.
Those burning words, like Pandora's box opened in an instant, floated out from the pages, flew into the air, and then crashed into the pores of his skin.
It made him tremble uncontrollably.
"Smack."
The diary fell to the ground.
The unfolded pages slammed shut due to the impact.
Gu Lianzhou, like a puppet with its strings cut, took several steps back and slumped down at the foot of the bed, staring intently at the red stain on the carpet.
I know perfectly well in my heart—
Some things, once opened, can never be closed again.
"elder brother……"
Hearing the sound, he suddenly looked up!
Shen Zhiyi didn't wake up; she just moved her body slightly and turned to the other side to continue sleeping.
The blanket slipped off during the movement.
Gu Lianzhou looked at the back of her head.
She couldn't help but wonder if he was also in her current fantasy.
what are they doing?
Could it be related to the tie she was wearing?
He suppressed the madness awakening within him, bent down, picked up the notebook, and placed it back on the table.
He picked up the blanket and covered her rounded shoulders.
Then, he stood there in the shadows, looking down at her with a deep, somber gaze.
I don't know how much time passed.
He closed his eyes.
He raised his hand, carefully removed her hair tie, turned the lights down to the lowest setting, and quietly slipped out.
The moment the lock was closed, Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes.
She tucked a stray lock of her hair behind her ear, leaned back lazily in her chair, and her gaze fell on the creases and wrinkles at the foot of the bed.
He smiled enigmatically.
Gu Lianzhou lay in the deep darkness of the night, lost in his own thick, dark fantasies.
He loosened her hair tie.
Put it back on.
The hair tie, which had been coiled and twirled several times in his seaweed-like long hair, was still too small for him, even after being stretched to the point of losing its elasticity.
He tasted a hint of the pain of being imprisoned.
But this suffocating madness made his blood run cold.
He was breathing heavily.
In my secret fantasies, I trace those words.
Then, he felt an overwhelming joy, enough to wash over his pores and soul...
Frenzy, immense joy...

After Shen Qing learned that Gu Lianzhou had ruined Shen Zhiyi's blind date, he punished him by making him kneel in the house's confinement room for a day.
Uncle Chen took over and whipped him a few times, then showed the whip to Shen Qing, who was in the hospital.
"You'd better give me a reasonable explanation."
Shen Qing, his face full of anger, shouted at the other end of the video call.
Gu Lianzhou knelt there with slightly damp hair on his forehead, his upper body completely naked, with a broad back and a slender waist, and several shocking red marks crisscrossing his pale skin.
He seemed to take it all in stride.
He raised his head and said, "I just found out that the He family was contacted by my second uncle. They must have reached some kind of deal."
“I’m afraid that if this goes through, Xiaoyi will become someone else’s pawn.”
The truth is, Hervelin was someone he carefully selected.
On the surface, the He family and Shen Zhang stood together, but in reality, they had already secretly switched sides and become his people.
If He Weilin were to marry Shen Zhiyi, it would not only restrain Shen Zhang, but also allow him to secretly plot to seize Shen Zhiyi's shares.
It can be said to be entirely beneficial with no drawbacks.
But he completely misjudged his own heart.
Gu Lianzhou's eyes darkened.
He will never give her to anyone else again.
Shen Qing indeed remained silent.
His suspicious gaze fell on Gu Lianzhou through the screen.
"Can you honestly say you have no ulterior motives?"
Gu Lianzhou lowered his eyes and did not answer for a moment.
Just then, Shen Zhiyi pushed open the door and entered the room.
Upon seeing the scene before her, she covered her lips like a startled fawn, suppressing the gasp that escaped her throat.
