Can We Say No to Divorce?-Chapter 590 - 357: Feeling Sorry for Him in My Heart

Chapter 590: Chapter 357: Feeling Sorry for Him in My Heart
"Has he ever seen you like this?" Gu Yucheng asked an unrelated question.
Ji Su’s face turned red, then pale. Although He Chenxiang had not, she had been seen like this by her former owner!
"Don’t do this, Yucheng..." Ji Su struggled, "Can you let me go, please?"
As she spoke, she recalled the humiliation she had suffered. She had once been protected by him and had never been insulted like that by others!
She kept saying how she would do this and that with others, to anger him, but after actually being humiliated by someone else, she felt that she had let him down in her heart!
"Do you really love him that much?" Gu Yucheng asked her, referring of course to He Chenxiang.
Ji Su was stunned; she opened her eyes and looked at the man, without speaking.
Her silence was taken as an admission by him.
Gu Yucheng let go of her and then strode towards the door.
"Yucheng..." Ji Su called out, "Don’t go, I’m scared..."
But Gu Yucheng just gave a sarcastic smile: "If you’re scared, why not call He Chenxiang?"
"He and I..." Ji Su shook her head, "There’s nothing between him and me..."
Gu Yucheng seemed not to believe her: "Why wouldn’t you let me touch you just now?"
"That’s because..." Ji Su hurriedly spoke as she saw him leaving, "someone bought me, took advantage of me..."
Gu Yucheng stared at her, his eyes suddenly fierce, "He took advantage of you?"
"Yes..." Ji Su started crying.
"Ji Su..." Suddenly, Gu Yucheng turned around, and like the wind, came back to her side, pressing her against the wall with one hand, the cold wall prickling her skin, while he said menacingly, "Are you really so eager to be wanted by so many men?"
No matter what had happened between them, he still wanted her to be his, and his alone.
"No... It’s not like that..." Ji Su couldn’t escape his clutches and shook her head, "I haven’t... otherwise I wouldn’t have gotten hurt on the head..."
"What did you say?" Gu Yucheng suddenly snapped to his senses, she didn’t know that he had bought her? She was resisting to the death to protect her chastity!
Ji Su cried and said: "I know I’ve wronged you, I know you will look down on me, I never thought about being with you again... please let me go, okay?"
"Ji Su, I’ve thought about letting you go too..." Gu Yucheng said.
Ji Su’s eyes immediately lit up. Whether it was love or hatred, they no longer needed to entangle, right?
However, Gu Yucheng had only said half of what he wanted to say. He continued: "But now, I haven’t thought about letting you go!"
"But..." Ji Su’s mind couldn’t quite keep up with his pace.
"Susu, in this lifetime, we must be together." Gu Yucheng bit down hard on her shoulder.
He bit her so hard that Ji Su felt her bones ache; she trembled with pain, "Don’t you care that others have touched me?"
Gu Yucheng just stared intently at her, his eyes bereft of any emotion.
In fact, Ji Su still hoped he would say that since they had to be together, he should not mind.
But he coldly snorted, "I care!"
Ji Su’s face turned instantly pale; she bit her lip, "If you care, why be together at all?"
"Shouldn’t I take back what he did to you at your place?" Gu Yucheng’s expression turned cold.
Ji Su shook her head; how could he do such a thing!
...
Tian Xin came out of the room, "Mom, I’m going out for a bit."
"Where are you going?" Mother Tian looked at her, "It’s so late, and there’s a typhoon outside!"
"I don’t know if Baijin’s doors and windows are closed. I’ll go and check!" Tian Xin said.
Mother Tian was naturally happy that her daughter was so considerate of Tang Baijin, "But it’s dangerous. Let’s go tomorrow in the daylight!"
"I promised him I’d take care of his house!" Tian Xin said, "It’s okay, I’ll be right back."
"Then be careful!" Mother Tian instructed, "Call if something happens."
"Got it, Mom!" Tian Xin drove the car and went to Tang Baijin’s house.
She saw that indeed the windows of his house were not closed, especially the bedroom ones; water had already flooded the floor, soaking the blankets and curtains.
She went inside, closed the windows, and then took the wet blankets and curtains down to the laundry room.
As she was mopping the floor, Tang Baijin returned.
With the typhoon and heavy rain these past two days, construction at the mountaintop villa was impossible, so he thought of coming back to check on Tian Xin. Upon his return, he saw her mopping the floor.
He entered but she did not notice.
He tiptoed closer, just about to reach out and embrace her from behind, when Tian Xin suddenly swung the mop up.
"Ah..." Tian Xin, unaware someone had come in, remembered the door had been locked. When she saw it was Tang Baijin, she stuck her tongue out, "Why did you come back?"
On Tang Baijin’s white shirt, there were immediately several streaks of mop water. He looked at her busy figure, her forehead glistening with sweat, and felt a pang of heartache, "Why are you busy with this so late!"
"I’m sorry, I haven’t taken good care of your house." Tian Xin said somewhat embarrassedly. She had always been righteous, and felt very sorry for failing to meet her promise to him.
"It’s okay, I’ll have someone clean it up tomorrow." Tang Baijin looked at her: "Put it down, rest for a while."
Fortunately, the living room was clean, and the two sat down in it. Tang Baijin went to get some bottled water from the refrigerator. He handed one to Tian Xin and opened one for himself to drink.
"I will take a few days off. We can’t work on the construction site when it’s raining anyway," Tang Baijin said.
Tian Xin glanced at the room: "You can only sleep in the guest room tonight..."
"It’s no big deal." Tang Baijin smiled and said: "Fertile lands of thousands are there just for three meals a day, and a house with thousands of rooms is just for sleeping on a three-foot bed. I’ve never cared much for these..."
Before he finished speaking, Tian Xin’s mobile phone rang. It was a WeChat message from Yang Junyi. She opened it to read.
Yang Junyi: Are you asleep? There’s a typhoon tonight, be sure to close the doors and windows tightly and don’t go out.
Before Tian Xin could reply, Tang Baijin abruptly took her mobile phone from her hands. When he saw the message was from Yang Junyi, his face immediately turned stern: "You’re still in contact with him?"
"He’s back at the hospital for work," Tian Xin looked at him.
"Have you seen each other?" Tang Baijin did not expect Yang Junyi to return as soon as he left.
Tian Xin nodded: "We met once and had coffee in a cafe..."
"Have you forgotten what I’ve said?" Tang Baijin’s handsome face darkened, "Tian Xin, what did I say?"
Tian Xin looked at him innocently: "Why are you more nervous than I am? We just had coffee, that’s all..."
"Tian Xin..." Tang Baijin looked at her earnestly, "Others might not know how you’ve been these days, but I do, and I don’t want you to suffer anymore. I want you to be happy and joyful, understand?"
"Thank you, Baijin..." Tian Xin nodded, "I will, definitely..."
"Don’t go back tonight, just stay in the guest room!" Tang Baijin said.
Tian Xin: "Ah..."
"I’ll call Auntie!" Tang Baijin picked up her mobile phone and dialed Tian Xin’s mother.
"Xinxin..." Tian Xin’s mother sounded worried she hadn’t rested yet.
"Auntie, it’s me..." Tang Baijin’s voice was clear, "Tian Xin will stay in the guest room tonight. It’s too unsafe for her to go back, with the wind and rain outside..."
"Baijin is back!" Tian Xin’s mother’s voice brightened with happiness, "Alright, no problem..."
Because Tang Baijin had put the phone on speaker, Tian Xin didn’t expect her mother to trust Tang Baijin so much!
Tang Baijin told her: "You sleep in the guest room, I’ll sleep in the study."
"Alright then!" Tian Xin was not someone to make a fuss, so she agreed to stay.
She took a shower, then put on clothes belonging to Tang Baijin. It wasn’t her first time wearing his clothes, and feeling the soft fabric, she saw herself in the mirror and felt her face flush with warmth.
Exhausted from the day, Tian Xin soon fell asleep.
In the middle of the night, the door to her room opened, and Tang Baijin entered the bedroom.
He adjusted the air conditioner in the bedroom to a warmer temperature. She was already a bit cold and curled up, not even covering herself with a blanket.
He picked up a thin blanket nearby, preparing to cover her with it, and when he saw her wearing his clothes, he felt a sense of satisfaction.
Perhaps, when he learned that it was her that night, not taking her away from Yang Junyi’s side, he thought that sex and love could be separated. As long as Yang Junyi loved her, he would naturally tolerate everything about her.
But, now that Yang Junyi had broken up with her, how could he bear to let such a kind woman be without a place for her love!
Her sleeping posture was like that of a little dog, almost curling her head and tail together. Normally, one of his shirts would be long enough to serve as a dress for her.
Resort in the hills.
Ji Su didn’t know how she ended up at this place again, scented with magnolia blossoms and with the sound of running creek water.
She felt that this was her place of nightmares and wished never to return here again!
And yet, here she was again.
She was blindfolded, and her hands were tied behind her back.
How did she end up here?
Where was Gu Yucheng? She had clearly been with him the previous night, why did she wake up in a different place this morning?
"Yucheng..." Ji Su called his name fearfully; she didn’t want to go through this again.
Gu Yucheng was just standing not far away, watching her panic. Last time, she hadn’t called out his name.
This time, she seemed to have learned her lesson, calling for him when she was afraid!
He approached her. He had dressed her in almost-transparent thin silk, recreating the props and scene from last time.
He reached out, presumptuous and arrogant.
"Don’t..." Ji Su startled, "Save me, Yucheng... Yucheng..."
But she couldn’t avoid him and was quickly restrained in his embrace.
If last time she was foolish in trying to save her mother, then who had she wronged this time to deserve this?
Where had Gu Yucheng gone, why did he let someone take her away?
"Please, Yucheng, save me..." Ji Su kept calling out his name.
