“You… you…”
Jiang Chen was both embarrassed and furious.
She was still young, with no experience of interacting with the opposite sex.
This was the first time she had been so exposed and intimate with a man.
“Bastard, get away from me! You… mmm!”
A large hand gripped her chin, forcing her to swallow the words she had yet to utter.
“What’s wrong? Just now you were as docile as a kitten, and now you’re baring your claws?”
The two were too close, with Lu Jin’s jaw right above her head.
She could clearly see the man’s sexy Adam’s apple moving up and down, his sharply defined collarbone, and… his arms and chest, radiating intense sexual tension… and…
She dared not look any further and could only close her eyes.
Lu Jin lowered his head, gazing down at the exquisite figure before him.
The girl’s waterfall-like long hair spread out in the water, accentuating her snow-white skin. Though her eyes were closed, her slightly trembling eyelids betrayed her fear and helplessness.
Her full figure was tightly pressed into the corner by him, her beauty… making his heart stir involuntarily.
“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you now.”
A low, magnetic, and husky male voice sounded in her ear. “From now on, you must completely forget the original Jiang Zui. You can only be Jiang Chen—belonging to me alone.”
After washing, Lu Jin lifted the girl from the pool and once again slung her over his shoulder.
“You… put me down, I can walk by myself.”
Jiang Chen was both embarrassed and furious.
The man’s thin lips parted, uttering only two words, “Be obedient.”
Though his tone was light, the pressure was overwhelming.
Jiang Chen was no fool; she did not want to experience the punishment from the water again.
She instantly became docile, allowing the man to carry her to the sofa.
As soon as she touched the sofa, Jiang Chen trembled all over.
That Liu Rui Feng had pinned her down on the sofa and humiliated her. Now, after the bath, was he going to…
She tightened her bathrobe and quickly retreated to the corner.
Seeing the girl’s vigilant expression, the man’s face remained indifferent.
His large hand suddenly reached out, skillfully gripping her neck and dragging her over forcefully.
Facing those deep, dark eyes, Jiang Chen was terrified and at a loss, instinctively closing her eyes.
A cold touch sent a shiver through her heart.
Cotton?
Opening her eyes again, she saw the man using a cotton swab dipped in iodine to carefully dab at the abrasion on her forehead.
“It needs proper disinfection.”
Lu Jin frowned slightly, his handsome face sharp and angular, his focused expression utterly captivating.
Jiang Chen couldn’t help but stare.
“I don’t like my things to have any damage.”
Lu Jin noticed Jiang Chen looking at him and stopped his movements. His large hand slid up to her red lips, forcing them open.
Seeing the surging desire in Lu Jin’s eyes, Jiang Chen’s heart pounded like a drum.
“I’m not a thing, don’t you… mmm…”
Once again, her mouth was sealed.
Male hormones overwhelmed her senses, that overwhelming possessiveness and intense need for control leaving Jiang Chen utterly defenseless.
His breath was heavy and deep, his kisses wild and forceful.
Jiang Chen’s cheeks flushed crimson, her breathing unsteady, her hands instinctively pushing against the man’s chest.
Lu Jin pinned her arms with one hand, pulling the girl tightly into his embrace.
The world spun.
In his arms, Jiang Chen was already dazed from the kiss, her eyes glazed and the corners red. She gasped for breath, crystal tears streaming down her swollen, reddened lips before slowly dripping away.
Truly a sight that stirred pity.
Unfortunately, Lu Jin’s expression remained indifferent, as if the passionate, lingering kiss had never happened.
“Get on the bed.”
Before Jiang Chen could catch her breath, she heard such a “terrifying” statement, and cold sweat instantly broke out at her temples.
“You… didn’t you say… you wouldn’t… touch me? Why… why are you… again…”
Lu Jin lowered his gaze to look at the girl who was so frightened she could barely speak, his attractive lips curling into a faint smile.
“I don’t particularly like it when you question my orders.”
“But, you, you just said you wouldn’t…!!”
Suddenly, she was lifted into the air again, hoisted up by the man.
But this time, she didn’t dare resist too forcefully, afraid of angering the unpredictable madman before her.
Pinned down on the bed, the man’s large hand skillfully slipped into her bathrobe, roaming freely…
“No, don’t…”
Jiang Chen instinctively tried to arch her body, attempting to stop his…
“No bones are injured.”
“??!” Jiang Chen froze, staring at Lu Jin in astonishment.
The man’s eyes no longer held the earlier desire. His large hand slowly traced over her back, chest, and abdomen…
When he looked up again, his thin lips curved into a charming smile, carrying an indescribable air of flirtation.
“You look delicate, but your body is surprisingly sturdy.”
Only then did Jiang Chen realize that Lu Jin hadn’t actually intended to force himself on her—he was checking her injuries?!
“It’s just soft tissue bruising. You’ll recover in two or three days.”
The man chuckled, “I didn’t expect you to be so resilient.”
Faced with Lu Jin’s teasing, Jiang Chen remained silent, but a hint of anger quietly colored her clear, beautiful eyes.
“Good, your will to survive is strong. It seems you still have many desires in this world.”
His broad hand gently brushed against the girl’s delicate skin. Lu Jin looked down at the girl beneath him, who appeared obedient on the surface but was filled with resistance in her expression, and smiled.
His dark eyes revealed a mad joy and fervent interest.
It seemed he had picked up a treasure.
Interesting, so interesting.
His slender fingers slowly gripped her chin, forcing her to lift her head and meet his gaze.
“Remember, whatever you want, I can give it to you.” The man leaned down, his handsome, captivating face gradually filling Jiang Chen’s vision. His long, delicate eyelashes and distant, translucent pupils carried a hint of bewitching beauty.
“But you must remember, I gave you your name, and I gave you your new identity. From today onward, you belong only to me, and you can only rely on me. If you dare betray me…”
His thin lips gently kissed the girl’s temple, an action so intimate it was as if they were the most loving couple in the world. However, the words that followed were utterly chilling.
“I will make you wish you were dead but unable to die. Do you understand?”
Terror surged through her heart like a tide. Staring at the man with his brilliant smile, Jiang Chen trembled uncontrollably.
She had finally escaped Liu Rui Feng, escaped Jiang Jiaguang and Chen Shuping. She thought she had finally gained her freedom, but she never expected that the man before her would be the most terrifying existence of all.
