Little Hottie 2
A smile flickered across his lips. It was a bitter and cold smile. Perhaps Secretary Yu was right. She should find a suitor, so that he could formally divorce her and let her pursue the life she wanted.
Leng Yejin gritted his teeth. He did not understand why he had to concern himself with other people’s business. But if he did not think about other things to distract himself, he was afraid that he might not make it through the pain. On every fifteenth day of the month in the Lunar calendar, every particle in his body would be stirring and rioting, as though each of them had taken a dose of stimulant. Gradually, his body would be weakened. In the end, he would lose the ability to protect himself.
Therefore, he must lock himself in here.
The moon became increasingly round. Leng Yejin felt as though his body was slowly sinking into the floor. His consciousness slowly faltered. The pain in his bones and blood spread all over his body. The world before his eyes was shrouded in darkness. The silver moonlight and his ink-black eyes complemented each other, creating a breathtakingly beautiful sight.
“Arrrggghhhhhhhh————”
Leng Yejin clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. Still, he was not able to hold back the scream.
But the walls of the study were made of the best sound-insulating material compared to the rest of the mansion. Secretary Yu said that even if an atomic bomb detonated in here, no one outside the room would hear it. This made him feel more secure and safe as he let out more cries of agony.
Tong Lu was startled awake abruptly. ‘Strange.’ She seemed to hear some faint cries of pain. But the night was peaceful and silent. ‘Am I hallucinating?’
“I don’t know how big brother is doing now.” Long Yan was the most chatty person among the four of them and the only one who was unable to hide his concern. He kept staring at the silver moon in the sky. “I’m worried about him.”
“Worrying doesn’t help. He won’t let anyone see his vulnerable side. We have been worrying and fearing for his safety for two whole years now. Haven’t you gotten used to it?”
Leng Yerong was the calmest and most mature person among the group. His tone of voice sounded indifferent, but his hand had already left a deep dent on the beer can in his clutch.
Ye Mei said something astonishing. “It’s just like menstrual pain. It’ll be over. There’s no need to worry.”
“I have never had to deal with menstruation. How would I know?” Long Yan grumbled. “Never mind. Let’s drink and play a few rounds of cards.”
“There are four of us, just enough people for a card game. What else is there to do other than playing cards and drinking?”
Ji Yiming lost so many times. His face was almost covered with little stickers.
“Arrrggghhhhhhhh————”
Tong Lu sprung up abruptly. ‘Weird, is it a hallucination?’ But she indeed heard a faint cry of anguish. ‘Where is it coming from? Is it real?’ She could not ignore it. She must go out to take a look.
Tong Lu rolled over and got out of bed. She left her bedroom to trace the source of the noise. She could not help but knock on the bedroom next to hers. “Brother-in-law, are you up? I seem to be hearing someone scream. Did you hear it?
“Brother-in-law, are you asleep? Are you in there?”
In the evening, she appeared to have heard the sound of the car engine when her brother-in-law returned. But she did not see him in person. ‘He’s supposed to be in the bedroom now, right?’
Tong Lu called out to him again and again, but no one responded. She could only look for the source of the noise herself. Her ears perked up as she tried to capture the sound. In the end, she came up to the study door and pressed her ear against it. “Weird. The noise seems to come out of this room.”
The butler said that she was not allowed to enter the study, because her brother-in-law was used to spending time alone in the room.
But Tong Lu could not hold back her curiosity.
Tong Lu leaned against the door. The door to the study was not closed properly and suddenly creaked open. Tong Lu stuck her head into the room. There was no one inside. But there was a hint of light from the bedroom in the study, shining through the gap in the door. She heard a rustle, which appeared to be from that bedroom.
