Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Long Sijue quickly held Su Qianxun in his arms. The young woman put her arms around him tightly. She could not stop s.h.i.+vering. She asked, “Is he dead? Did I shoot him dead?”
Long Sijue glanced at the dead man coldly. There was a murderous glint in his eyes. ‘He’s lucky that he’s dead. He deserves far worse!’
“Hm, he’s already dead.”
Su Qianxun could barely breathe. She started shaking vigorously and mumbling, “I killed a man. I killed a man…”
Sensing her helplessness and her s.h.i.+vering body, he regretted telling her the truth. “The man you killed is a criminal. Don’t be afraid. I’m here. I’ll stay with you.”
“Ke Ran. Quick, save her!” Su Qianxun quickly clutched at Long Sijue’s s.h.i.+rt and looked up at him.
Long Sijue held his breath. At a time like this, she was still thinking about another person. He wanted to lecture her. But when he saw the pitiable look on her face, he did not want to upset her even more. “Don’t worry. Someone else has rescued her.”
Long Sijue carried her. He must take her out of this disgusting place first.
Su Qianxun leaned against Long Sijue’s chest. She remained silent and still the entire time. Once they got into the car, Long Sijue realized that there was a cut on her hand. He felt his heart ache once again.
Long Sijue took out a medical kit and dressed the wound. Lucky for her, the cut was not too deep.
“Young master, my cla.s.smate…” Su Qianxun still worried about Ke Ran.
“I’ll instruct someone to look after her.” Long Sijue tightened his arms around her.
Su Qianxun did not speak anymore. She lay quietly in Long Sijue’s arms. She looked very fragile, like a crystal doll. Seeing her like that, Long Sijue felt his heart ache even more.
After they returned to Jin Garden, Su Qianxun headed to the bathroom. She took off her b.l.o.o.d.y clothes frantically and tossed them out of the shower. She picked up the handheld showerhead and started showering.
As Su Qianxun recalled the deplorable man who attacked her, she wanted so badly to sc.r.a.pe her skin off. She was so disgusted that she picked up the bathscrab and started scrubbing her neck, where Xue Rui had planted a kiss.
Long Sijue was still worried. When he entered the bathroom, he saw the young woman scrubbing her neck with desperation. He immediately rushed over and pried her hands off herself. He looked at her neck. The skin was bruised, torn, and covered in blood.
“What are you doing?” Long Sijue furrowed his brows as he stared at her.
“It’s filthy. I feel dirty. It’s so filthy!” Su Qianxun pointed at her own neck frantically.
Long Sijue sucked in a sharp breath. He knew very well that Xue Rui had touched her neck. Su Qianxun struggled out of his grip and started rubbing her neck again. Long Sijue immediately pried her hands off her neck. As he looked at the b.l.o.o.d.y bruises on her skin, he pinned her against the wall all of a sudden and kissed her on the neck.
Su Qianxun tightened her grip on the showerhead. She closed her eyes and felt his kisses on her skin. Long Sijue took the showerhead from her and lifted her up all of a sudden. He carried her back to the bedroom.
Long Sijue put her down on the bed and gazed at her for a moment. He saw the vulnerable look in her eyes.
He lowered his head and kissed her on the neck once again. His lips inched across her skin.
This time, Long Sijue was deliberately being rough as he made love to her so that the young woman would be exhausted and fall asleep right away. He did not want her to overthink about the incident earlier. He just hoped that she would have a good night’s sleep.
Once he got out of bed and put on his clothes, he redressed the wound on her hand.
Long Sijue ordered Huan Huan to stay with her. If the young woman regained consciousness and found herself alone at a time like this, she would certainly feel very scared.
After Long Sijue went into the study room, Ye Gu gave a brief report of what happened in that apartment. Long Sijue’s gaze was very chilly. He said, “Capture them all. No exceptions!”
Ye Gu immediately left to do his job. When he walked out of the study room, he nearly ran into Huan Huan, who was hurrying towards the door. Huan Huan saw Ye Gu and instantly blushed. Ye Gu looked ahead and left without sparing her a glance.
