What Lu Wanwan was more curious about was where Shen Yi had gotten this necklace from. Did all fakes look so authentic now?
If it wasn't for the fact that Shen Yi was broke, Lu Wanwan's pair of discerning eyes would have been fooled.
With the desk lamp turned off, there was little light in the room.
Shen Yi was a vigorous and healthy man. Even if his usual behavior was alike someone pure of heart and soul, but come night, he would inevitably want to do some things to her.
The slightly cold fingers gently squeezed her thin waist and gradually went from her belly upward. Lu Wanwan stiffened, remembering a few not-so-good memories.
Shen Yi, this person, had always been very vicious in bed. He always liked to say some very dirty words in her ear, once they were at it, he would do it for a very long time and if she didn't shed a few tears in the process, this person simply would not stop.
All of his worst tendencies manifested themselves at night.
Lu Wanwan pushed his hand away and said softly, "I'm tired."
Shen Yi froze, "Okay."
All the movements of his hands stopped and he obediently laid down on her side.
That night, Lu Wanwan dreamed again of a memory. That was most probably during the first time she transmigrated inside the book, when she was dedicated to please him.
The skinny teenager was wearing a school uniform and had a bruise on the corner of his forehead. She didn't know who beat him, but he was down on the ground, looking wretched and pitiful.
She squatted in front of him, her eyes full of sincerity, " I will take you to the hospital to have a check."
The cold teenager raised his eyes, his pair of dark eyes more tranquil than stagnant water. The youth spat out one word, which he said with immense clarity: "Scram."
Shen Yi had always been silent and taciturn, harmless and well-behaved, so later on Lu Wanwan had really not been expecting him to lock her up.
And that he would lock her up for more than a decade at that.
At that time, Shen Yi was already no longer quite sane. He was hugging her very tightly, gently brushing her hair around her ears and kissing her brow. In a daze, he asked, "Didn't you say you would always be good to me?"
"Didn't you say you would only be nice to me?"
"But it's okay, it's enough as long as you stay by my side."
Lu Wanwan felt like there was no solution, no way to interact with a psychopath. Some of those people he spoke about were her colleagues, others were her friends.
But it seemed that Shen Yi couldn't tolerate a single one of them.
Her whole body was trembling with fear while the man holding her tightly was soothing her very gently. The words that came out of his mouth were so very harsh, yet he used the softest tone, coaxing her, "Don't be afraid, just always stay home and be a good girl."
The next morning when she woke up, her hair was slightly wet from the sweat.
After a long time, Lu Wanwan came back to her senses and got up to wash up.
That fake necklace still remained on the dressing table, and though she knew it was a fake, Lu Wanwan didn't say anything about it. But when she was dressing up, Shen Yi, who was standing at the side, asked in a puzzled voice: "Didn't you like it? How come you're not wearing it?"
Lu Wanwan revealed an innocent smile to the person behind her: "Aiya, yesterday I still liked it, today I don't like it anymore. I don't want to wear it."
"Yi Yi, you won't think I'm extravagant and wasteful, will you?"
Shen Yi shook his head: "I won't, everything is as you wish."
Lu Wanwan gritted her teeth and choked on air. She was going to be angered to death by Shen Yi. How come she didn't know before that this man had such a good temper ?
She yelled in her mind, "Can't you see I'm toying with you?"
"By the way, isn't your company about to pay out the year-end bonus?" Lu Wanwan suddenly asked him.
Shen Yi nodded: "Yes."
Having learned her lesson twice, Lu Wanwan was no longer going to be deluded by Shen Yi's pitiful appearance. Even if he looked like quite pitiable, but by now Lu Wanwan had long been able to make her heart, like still water, not be moved by him.
This person's good behavior was all an act.
She narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Then you remember to give me the money when the time comes so that I can buy some gifts for my parents during the New Year that won't be too shabby."
"Okay."
"......"
Lu Wanwan was silent for a moment but finally couldn't help but be curious and asked again, "Did you hear what I was saying clearly or not?"
His salary bankcard was already in her hand and if the money from the year-end bonus was also given to her, then Shen Yi really would be left without a single penny.
"I heard you clearly. If you like it, you can have it all."
Shen Yi now really felt that this was a good thing. If she liked money, then he will give her money.
He would give her all the things she likes and take care of everything well for her. That way, she will come to know that the person who treated her best in the world was him and only him alone.
That way she won't get fooled by others and leave.
