"I will not marry you!" Lin Xinlan declared resolutely.
"That’s not up to you," Qiao Yiyang replied, equally firm.
A flash of anger crossed Lin Xinlan’s eyes, and just as she was about to explode with fury, he suddenly lowered his head and forcefully kissed her lips. She struggled and whimpered, but the man kissed her powerfully, only reluctantly letting go after a while.
Lin Xinlan raised her hand high, but before she could bring it down, he seized it.
"Every day from now on, I’ll do whatever I want to you. Do you plan to hit me every time?" he asked with a crooked smile, wickedly.
"Bastard, Shameless!" Lin Xinlan was so angry her face turned pale. "Qiao Yiyang, I warn you, if you dare touch me again, I will not be polite!"
"Oh? Then I really want to see how you’ll be impolite to me." He hooked his arm around her waist and blocked her lips once more.
Lin Xinlan bit down hard. The man seemed not to feel the pain at all; instead of pulling back, his kisses became even more fierce.
Lin Xinlan bit through his tongue and his lips, and a strong metallic taste of blood filled their mouths.
The fresh blood stimulated his nerves, and his kisses became more intense and bloodthirsty.
He held her body and pressed her down onto the bed.
Panic and fear surged in Lin Xinlan’s heart. She struggled with all her might, but he was immovable like a mountain upon her.
This madman, Qiao Yiyang, he’s a madman!
Exhausted, Lin Xinlan lost her strength and gave up struggling.
The man slowly ended the kiss, tilted his head back, his thin lips stained with bright red blood, looking somewhat enchanting.
"Xinlan, you can’t resist me. From now on, be obedient and don’t struggle unnecessarily," he said with a light laugh, his eyes, however, were ice-cold, sending chills down one’s spine.
Lin Xinlan glared at him furiously, silent.
She didn’t want to waste words on him. This kind of person, she was coming to despise and look down upon more and more.
Qiao Yiyang’s smile at the corner of his mouth gradually faded as he stood up and said indifferently, "From now on, you can move freely around the villa, but don’t try to leave. You simply cannot."
"Ha, sooner or later, I will leave. Do you think you can keep me forever?"
Qiao Yiyang replied with a faint smile, "As long as I hold your heart, you, as a person, can be kept by me forever."
No, that will never happen.
He will never be able to hold her heart forever.
Seeing her thoughts, he added, "Humans are the most fickle animals. No matter how deep the feelings are, they will fade over time. Your feelings for Rong Shaoze won’t be impregnable, Xinlan. As long as you are by my side, feeling my love, one day you will forget him and fall in love with me."
"Then you can keep waiting because that day will never come in this lifetime!" Lin Xinlan sat up, saying with absolute certainty.
She didn’t know how long other people’s feelings could last, but she was sure her heart wouldn’t change.
No matter how much time passed, her heart wouldn’t change.
Love, once it happens, lasts a lifetime.
Qiao Yiyang slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, saying nothing.
She was stubborn, but he would prove to her with facts that her feelings wouldn’t last long.
And in the realm of emotions, a woman’s heart is the easiest to be moved.
Lin Xinlan is a woman, so she won’t be an exception.
Qiao Yiyang left, and Lin Xinlan lay limply on the bed, praying that Rong Shaoze would come to her rescue soon.
Ever since Lin Xinlan’s disappearance, Rong Shaoze and the others have been searching everywhere for her whereabouts.
