When Mei Shu and Lin He were together, it seemed like they had an endless conversation. As they strolled, Lin He helped Mei Shu pick out many beautiful clothes, and, feeling excited, she also bought one for herself.
Mei Shu took care of the bill during checkout.
Feeling guilty, Lin He suggested treating Mei Shu to dinner.
Seeing her rare and genuine smile, Mei Shu’s mood darkened inexplicably.
Who would have thought that such a lovely girl was suffering in secret, abused and tormented by those two monsters?
That evening, when Lin He returned home and opened the door, her smile disappeared, replaced by an overwhelming sense of fear.
She had come home late today, and upon entering her home, she sensed a heavy atmosphere immediately.
At first, Lin He thought it was just her imagination, but as she closed the door, locked eyes with her husband and saw his sinister gaze, she realized that the eerie feeling she’d experienced earlier wasn’t a figment of her imagination.
Quietly and unnoticed, Zhou Nan had suddenly appeared behind her. He reached up and grabbed her by the neck, coldly questioning, “Where were you? Why are you only coming back now?”
Lin He quickly began to explain, “1… I went grocery shopping. Look.”
She raised the bag of vegetables she was holding for him to see.
Zhou Nan glanced at it, released his grip on her hand, and casually turned on the living room light with a malicious smile, saying, “Then hurry up and make dinner. I’m starving!”
“Sure, I’ll make it right away,” Lin He hastily escaped from his clutches and rushed into the kitchen to wash vegetables and start preparing dinner.
Today was strange because Old Wang hadn’t returned home so late.
However, Lin He no longer had the mood to think about so much. What she noticed was the chilling pressure behind her was getting closer, and eventually, the faint sound of footsteps came to a halt right behind her.
“Honey?” Trembling under the pressure, Lin He turned around, only to be pinned down by her husband at the sink.
Zhou Nan’s voice sounded like that of a devil as he murmured, “Lin He, 1 noticed you’ve lost weight recently.”
Saying this, his large hand had already slipped under her clothes and was caressing her smooth skin.
Lin He let out a startled cry and tried to push him away, but Zhou Nan maneuvered her back into submission.
He tightly gripped her jaw, forcing her to look at him. “I’ve talked to Mr. Wang,”
Just this sentence made Lin He completely forget how to struggle.
Zhou Nan was very satisfied with her reaction and stroked her cheek as if rewarding her. “He likes your face a lot. Just spend one night with him, and we’ll have a lifetime of wealth and prosperity. As long as you obey me, I won’t make things difficult for you.”
Tears welled up in Lin He’s eyes as her eyelashes trembled slightly. “Zhou Nan, I’m your wife.”
“Yes,” Zhou Nan responded as a matter of fact, “you are my wife. So before I give you to Mr. Wang, I want to enjoy you myself!”
With that, he violently tore off Lin He’s clothes and forcibly turned her around, pressing her against the sink with her back facing him.
Lin He sobbed, struggling to catch her breath, and pleaded humbly, “Zhou Nan, 1 know I’ve wronged you. I can’t bear children, but you can’t treat me like this, you can’t…”
“I am your husband, and we are legally married. There’s nothing wrong with having you sleep with me.”
Zhou Nan glared with eyes that seemed like those of a demon, forcefully pulling down his pants and entering Lin He’s body.
Lin He cried out in pain, trying to resist, but Zhou Nan overpowered her, and the struggle gradually ceased as the pain intensified. Her limbs, which had been thrashing earlier, went limp, allowing Zhou Nan to have his way with her. Before long, the torment ended.
Zhou Nan loosened his grip on her, and Lin He fell to the ground like a ragdoll.
Satisfied, Zhou Nan pulled up his pants. “Take a shower tomorrow,” he said, “and in the evening, I’ll take you to meet Mr. Wang. Don’t try any tricks; I know where your aunt and her family live. If I find out you’ve run away, I’ll make their lives miserable.”
“B*tard…”
Zhou Nan left, and Lin He muttered under her breath.
She sat on the ground for a long time, her mind blank, until the sky outside had darkened completely. She then got up, dressed, wiped away her tears with a numb face, and continued to prepare dinner.
When the landlady, Wang, returned, she exchanged a glance with her son and they both saw the victorious smile in each other’s eyes.
They didn’t torment Lin He further during their meal that evening.
To them, she was now the best money-making tool. To ensure she met Mr. Wang in the best condition tomorrow, they didn’t want to leave too many bruises on her body.
The following day was the weekend.
Mei Shu knew that Lin He liked to relax by walking around the residential area during the weekend.
But she waited and waited today and didn’t see Lin He’s appearance. She began to feel anxious.
It wasn’t until the evening that Mei Shu saw Lin He being dragged by Zhou Nan and forcibly pushed into a luxury car..
