Free Web NovelChapter 915: Chapter 343: [Heartbreaking Fairy Tale] The Sea Is the Upside-Down Sky (Part 3)
The bedroom lights were off, with pale moonlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling window, the light was very dim.
Though not pitch dark, it was still not enough to see one’s features clearly.
Lu Huai’an did not make any excessive moves, he simply pulled Lin Chu into his embrace.
His thin lips pressed against her ear, voice hoarse and blurred, "Back in Su City, how did you recognize me so accurately, hmm?"
Whether five years ago or five years later, she could always recognize him.
The man’s body, heavy with alcohol, weighed heavily on Lin Chu, making it hard for her to breathe.
The sleepiness completely evaporated, her muffled voice was so faint it carried no emotion.
"The smell of your heartless nature is impossible to conceal, I’ve lived this long, and truly haven’t seen another like it."
In past years, her blindness wasn’t in her eyes, but her heart.
That’s why she only saw his good side.
All the despicable methods were invisible to her, and that illusory dream didn’t wake until the day her father died.
Despite the humiliating reply, Lu Huai’an simply curled his lips into a smile.
In the silent bedroom, his low chuckle carried a seductive magnetism.
Mixed with the aroma of fine wine, it fell into Lin Chu’s ears.
"Very angry?"
"I find it more disgusting," Lin Chu tried once more to push him away, "Get up, being with you for more than ten minutes makes me want to vomit." freewebnøvel.com
Lu Huai’an chuckled softly.
He no longer pressed down on Lin Chu, his heavy body turned to the side, and he pressed the light switch.
The warm yellow light dispelled the darkness in the bedroom.
Lin Chu, now free, almost immediately lifted the thin blanket, but was quickly drawn back onto the bed by the man’s arm around her slender waist.
"Don’t move around, there are countless ties in the wardrobe."
This was a blatant threat.
Lin Chu was not one to be easily frightened, "Living in the same villa already makes me feel like dying would be more comfortable, even if you were to give me poison, don’t expect me to endure sleeping in the same bed as you."
Might as well be dead.
Lu Huai’an’s dark eyes locked onto the woman’s indifferent face, the rough pads of his fingers slowly caressed her delicate skin, with a gentle force.
"That unbearable?"
His deep voice carried no discernible emotion.
"Isn’t it obvious?" Lin Chu laughed disdainfully, "Or are you so blind you can’t even tell apart disgust from joy?"
Whether five years ago or now, her emotions were always plain to see.
She disdained to hide them.
Even lacking the allure of long hair, her bright features still seemed like flames, under the warm lighting, as if enveloped in a soft glow.
Though the smile in her eyes held an intense sarcasm, it couldn’t overshadow her beauty.
If Time left Lu Huai’an with a more profound scheming mind, then it left Lin Chu with a heart fearless of anything.
When there is nothing left to lose, there are no concerns.
"Not just unbearable, but more suffocating than being trapped underwater, do you understand now?"
Lin Chu’s greatest fear was water.
Lu Huai’an smiled gently, slowly stating, "In this world of the strong prey upon the weak, only when you have the strength to leave can you truly be free."
During these five years, he lived like a walking corpse, from day to night, from darkness to dawn.
Compared to the empty loneliness, even her ridicule and mockery could spark his life.
Disgust and rejection mean nothing.
As long as she is in front of him, that’s enough.
Lin Chu laughed out of anger, holding her forehead as she nodded, "Fine, I admit, whatever you say is right, I have nothing, only to be at your mercy."
The Lin Family only had her and Qi Ming left, no one else to rely on.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have returned to this cage.
Lu Huai’an seemed as though he hadn’t noticed the sarcasm and icy irony in Lin Chu’s words, perhaps due to the effects of alcohol, his usually dark eyes showed a gentle look.
Even his hoarse voice gained a touch of barely noticeable softness, "Just as long as you know."
Lin Chu withdrew her smile that never reached her eyes, and looked away, her gaze falling on the night outside the window.
Speaking faintly, "If you sleep here, I’ll change rooms, if not, then leave."
She chose not to sleep with Qi Ming precisely because she knew Lu Huai’an would occasionally act out, not wanting to frighten her son, nor wishing to impose adult grudges on her child.
