Chapter 40: Inflicted Pain On Pain
“Qin Muchen, let me go.” Gu Shinian cried, feeling deeply grieved, she resisted with both hands.
In the end, Qin Muchen took off his tie and tied her hands to the headboard.
He then tore the rest of her clothes off and entered her roughly without any foreplay.
Gu Shinian tried hard to stifle the turmoil of emotions that she felt.
There was a look of suppressed pain on her face.
That ignited Qin Muchen’s anger further.
Haha… he had almost forgotten that whenever he had sex with her, she would be crying and in pain!
Was it that terrible to sleep with him?
Fine, today he was going to add on to her pain and make her suffer!
…
The sex started without any love or affection.
It ended coldly and harshly.
Both of them could feel each other’s breath.
However, their hearts were miles apart. They could never come close together.
“From today onward, she is not allowed to leave the manor.” Qin Muchen barked his orders and left the room, looking arrogant and cold.
The butler finally entered the room. She sucked in her breath at the sight on the bed.
She worked to loosen the tie right away, revealing a pair of wrists that were bloodied from her struggles.
“Miss Gu, why did you end up in such fierce quarrel with Young Master Mu?”
Gu Shinian lay on the bed, there was a vacant look in her red eyes. She had clearly cried too much just now.
The butler wiped her tears while she stroked her head. Her heart ached for her. “Young Master Mu is not unreasonable. Why didn’t you say anything but ran off by yourself? It’s no wonder that he went into a rage.”
The light seemed to have gone out in Gu Shinian’s eyes. She pulled the blanket and covered her head. “Please go out, I am tired.”
“I will get the doctor.” She had never seen someone who was so weak.
It seemed as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.
The butler had never seen someone with that kind of pale complexion.
“I am alright.” Gu Shinian paused briefly before continuing, “Thank you.”
The butler frowned, sighing as she felt sorry for her. “Miss Gu, Young Master Mu… did not do it on purpose.”
“He… cares a lot for you.”
Tears rolled down Gu Shinian’s cheek upon hearing her words. She felt weary.
All she could remember was the man’s callous words.
—Don’t think too much of yourself.
—You’re just a surrogate mother.
—If you want to leave, do so after giving birth to the child.
—Do you know why I want you to bear a child for me? I have experienced the pain of being separated from my child, I want you to go through it.
…
…
Her feelings were hurt multiples times in the past.
If sadness was tangible, her heart must have been scarred and battered.
Gu Shinian covered her eyes, hot and burning tears seeped through her fingertips.
…
In the wee hours of the night, SEC Corporation was still brightly lit.
Jing Yu opened the door and a pungent cigarette smell wafted toward him.
It was very strong and bitter.
He looked up and caught a glimpse of a man who leaned against the window lazily. He curled his lips into a slight smile. “It’s rare to see you addicted to smoking.”
He had seen people who exercised restraint.
He had seen people who were casual.
The former was Qin Muchen.
And the latter was the prince of the underworld, Young Master Mu.
Qin Muchen ignored Jing Yu.
He did not take it to heart. He walked over and caught a glimpse of the cigarette butts on the floor, laughing all of a sudden. “It seems you are indeed troubled.”
“I am fine. Get out.” Qin Muchen did not care to look at him. He fixed his cold and indifferent gaze outside the window.
Jing Yu kept pestering him. “You shouldn’t be saying this. I am here to tell you some good news.”
