Shang Zeyan had a dream.
In his dream, Zhiyi was not by his side.
The woman who was with him was hysterical towards him at all times.
She ignored his emotions.
They will also try every means to provoke him, resist him, and escalate and explode his anger.
He bought her things.
She said he was using money to humiliate her.
He cares about her.
She called him a control freak, saying he bossed her around and treated her like a human being.
He avoided her.
She also accused him of emotional abuse.
...
Shang Zeyan didn't know what to do.
She also said that he was a born pervert and didn't know how to love at all.
He recalled her questions in his dream.
Question him.
If he understands love, why is he all alone? Why does everyone fear him, dread him, and wish they could stay far away from him?
Shang Zeyan did not know.
yes.
He doesn't understand love.
He often thought of his stepmother when he was with her.
So I can't help but lose control.
He thought he must be, as she said, the worst person in the world.
No amount of money or status can hide how terrible things are.
In the final fragments of the dream.
He saw himself choking the woman, roaring furiously.
With red eyes, she repeatedly told him to die.
Go to hell...
Go to hell...
Go to hell!
Shang Zeyan suddenly woke up.
I sat up, my forehead covered in cold sweat.
"Zeyan, what's wrong?" Shen Zhiyi woke up when she heard the noise. "Did you have a nightmare?"
Shang Zeyan turned around with red eyes.
I saw Shen Zhiyi rubbing her eyes.
The morning sunlight shone on her face, giving her a soft glow.
It's like a gift from heaven.
He opened his arms and held her tightly.
He buried his face in her neck, unable to utter a single word.
However, his aura was heavy and gloomy.
Shen Zhiyi paused for a moment, then wrapped her arms around his waist and gently patted his back to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid, I'm here," she said gently.
“How long will you stay here?” he asked.
After he recovered from his illness.
After he exposed his dark side.
After he could no longer suppress his desire.
Will she stay?
His drooping eyelashes were shrouded in shadow against the light, making Shang Zeyan look menacing.
He slept through the night.
He knew it was all because of her.
He was also perfectly aware that from the very first moment he met her, he had been uncontrollably drawn to everything she gave him.
This is very bad.
Because she could be another calamity for him, following his stepmother and the woman in his dream.
But he willingly succumbed to depravity.
“I will always be here until you no longer need me,” Shen Zhiyi reassured her.
"Yes, I need you." Shang Zeyan released her and grasped her shoulders with utmost solemnity. "It's impossible for me not to need you."
"That day will never come."
He looked into Shen Zhiyi's eyes and remained silent for a moment.
"Will you be scared if I say this? Will you think I'm..."
She's too controlling.
“No.” Shen Zhiyi interrupted him. “I’ve said it before, I’m very brave and I won’t be scared away by you.”
Shang Zeyan's eyes reddened at the corners.
“I remember everything from yesterday.” Shen Zhiyi touched his lips. “I remember kissing you, feeding me water, and holding me.”
With his malicious intentions exposed, a hint of guilt welled up in Shang Zeyan's indifferent eyes.
There was also an overwhelming sense of panic.
"Do you hate doing this?" He released her. "I won't do it again next time..."
"Zhiyi, I'm sorry."
"You must think I'm a very despicable person, right?"
He lowered his head.
The moment he let go, Shen Zhiyi hugged him tightly. "No, it's not like that."
"I love so much."
Shang Zeyan froze.
"You...you like it?"
"Yes, I like it." Shen Zhiyi said in his arms, word by word, "I like everything you've given me."
"I don't think you're a bad person."
On the contrary, all I see is your intense yet cautious affection for me.
She looked up at him. "Have I misunderstood?"
"No!" Shang Zeyan immediately cupped her face in his hands, his eyes filled with undisguised, intense affection. "If there is any misunderstanding, it is that my feelings for you are more than just liking."
"I love you."
"Zhiyi, I love you."
"I fell in love with you from the very first moment I saw you."
He frankly revealed his feelings.
After saying that, I felt a little regretful.
Isn't it too fast?
He hasn't spent much time with Zhiyi, and now he's revealing such intense feelings for her. Won't that scare her away?
Will she... feel that she was too hasty?
Shang Zeyan tensed up, “Everything I said is true.”
"Don't disbelieve me."
"And please don't hate me because of this."
Shen Zhiyi smiled faintly and reached out to pat his head.
He looked like a big dog that had been soaked by the rain.
How could I hate you?
“With me, you don’t have to be so careful, nor do you have to suppress or belittle yourself. I accept all of you, the good and the bad.”
"Including the darkness in your heart that you cannot see the light of day, you can also let me see it."
"I'll take it all."
Shang Zeyan was utterly shocked by her words.
He asked, almost trembling, "Why?"
