Chapter 216: Speechless
Chapter 216 I am speechless
He couldn't control his body, so he turned his head away and didn't dare to look at her.
She began to feel uneasy again: "Blood, blood..." She stretched out her hand to tear the blood-stained clothes on her body. Her fingertips, which had been well bandaged, were stained with water, and the gauze spread out. She cried out in pain as her injured fingertips touched her body.
Li Lei couldn't help but turn his head and saw one of her hands soaked in the hot spring water. Blood flowed out from her fingers intermittently, making very faint traces in the water. Li Lei was startled, and without caring much, he grabbed her hand: "What are you doing?!"
She looked at him and cried again: "A lot of blood...it hurts..."
He swore a curse word, and with a generous heart to die, he roughly turned her body away from him, took off her blood-stained clothes, and threw them away from her.
Her beautiful back was exposed, and the two thin shoulder blades under the skin were like butterfly wings. They were tightly tied by a thin inner belt. There was a trace of blood on the belt, which was so red.
Hot blood rushed to Li Lei's brain, burning away all his sanity.
There was a weak voice in Li Lei's heart shouting, you can't do this to Xiao Ling...
But he couldn't control himself at all.
"Xiao Ling..." He whispered hoarsely, pressing against the back of her neck, "Leave me, leave quickly."
She seemed not to have heard him and shrank tighter into his arms: "I'm scared." Tears fell into the hot spring pool, causing ripples in circles. She turned around, facing him, and put her hands around his neck: "Don't drive me away."
He is the only ray of light in her darkness.
He was caught off guard, and the string of reason in his mind suddenly broke. He hugged her tightly all of a sudden, not like the tenderness between lovers, but more like a wild beast devouring everything.
She fell into his arms, relying solely on the strength of his arms to support her but without resisting.
Until, many unbearable episodes suddenly appeared in her eyes. Those memories were so cruel that she couldn't help but start to struggle, "Let me go! Let go... let go..."
But he didn't let go. How could he let go at this point? !
turn a deaf ear.
However, her next words were like ice from the abyss, extinguishing all his enthusiasm.
She said: "Zi Heng, don't be like this..."
He slowly let go of her.
Her body fell backwards, leaning weakly on the low rock wall in the shallow water. She curled up along the low wall, shivering, embarrassed and vulnerable.
Li Lei looked at her. He couldn't tell what he felt in his heart. Angry? sad? defeat? There seems to be.
But more of a heartache, I don’t know if it’s for myself or... her.
Li Lei didn't know how many men could endure this kind of thing. Anyway, he felt that he had turned into a Ninja Turtle. As he watched her slide a little bit under the water, he roughly picked her up, carried her out of the bathroom, and threw her into the water. bedroom.
He threw a pile of duvets on her and made sure that she was buried like a rice dumpling, with only a small face as big as a palm showing. Then he turned around and decided to slam the door and leave. But I heard her weak cry: "Don't go... Zi Heng, don't go..."
"Go find your Pei Ziheng!" Li Lei shouted. This time he kicked the door open and went out. The strong and elegant wooden door made a loud noise and was shaken by his kick.
He rushed out angrily and threw many things in the living room. Still not satisfied, he punched the wall.
Bleeding oozes from the finger bones.
He seemed to feel no pain, and his expression was gloomy. After a long while, I strode into the study and made a phone call. "Hey, Bao Renjiu," he said, "how is your investigation into Pei Ziheng's case? Apart from Xia Ling, are there any other women who are deeply entangled with him?"
On the other end of the phone, Old Man Bao sneered: "Pei Ziheng? That beast is very dedicated. If he was so easy to fall in love with someone else, he wouldn't have harmed my daughter. He fell in love with Xia Ling because he was blind. Except for Xia Ling, Ling, he can't even fall in love with my daughter Jingwan, how can he fall in love with another woman? "
"Impossible!" Li Lei said furiously, "Go check it again!"
"Who do you want to check?" After all, Old Man Bao was once a big boss and very smart. "I read the recent news. You are with that little star named Ye Xingling? I remember her. I heard that she was molested by Pei Ziheng. , bothered me. What you want me to check is between her and Pei Ziheng. Let me tell you, it is impossible for them to have anything to do with each other. She is only eighteen years old this year. Pei Ziheng had an affair with Xia Ling more than ten years ago. We were together, and Ye Xingling was still in kindergarten at that time!"
“Then check it out too!” Li Lei was in a bad mood.
Old Man Bao sneered: "What happened to you, did you quarrel with that little star? Come on, why are you yelling at me? You care so much about her relationship with Pei Ziheng, I don't believe you haven't sent someone to investigate. Your professionals over there Nothing can be found, let alone an old man like me. Li Lei, let me tell you, we are a cooperative relationship, I am not your subordinate, let alone your punching bag!"
What he said made sense, but Li Lei was speechless.
The two sides were silent for a moment.
Old man Bao said: "I can give you some news about Xia Ling."
“What?” Li Lei asked.
“Pei Ziheng is a beast,” Old Man Bao said. “Fortunately, Jingwan didn’t marry him. Maybe it was lucky that Jingwan died before marrying him...”
He slowly told Li Lei what happened during the year when Xia Ling was imprisoned by Pei Ziheng.
"I just investigated how Pei Ziheng tortured her. The method was so outrageous that even a man with a little bit of humanity would not be able to do it..."
Li Lei listened quietly.
After a long time, hang up the phone.
He thought for a moment, turned on his computer, and typed the words "Stockholm Syndrome" on the search engine.
