Chapter 6 Blood Jade Drake 2

  • What did he mean?
  • Had a peaceful life all to myself? Didn't he want to kill me?
  • He let out a laugh, as if he himself was not used to granting such 'grace'.
  • "Don't make such a face. There is no divorce in posthumous marriage. Unless you are dead and reincarnated. Therefore for the rest of this life of yours, you wouldn't be able to be with another man."
  • His words were heartless and cold, "If you fear me that much, then I can stop appearing before you after it is done. If you wish to live alone after that, by all means."
  • "You... what do you mean by after it is done?" I caught on the detail.
  • Brother was right. He had a special agenda.
  • He sneered and pinched my chin, "It wasn't enough that you don't know about the netherworld, but you don't even have common knowledge of man-woman relationship? You don't remember how much I left in you every night?"
  • I blushed and stared at him. After seeing that scary mask for so long, I was no longer disturbed.
  • "When the ring on your finger formed a drake, it meant the spirit embryo was formed... Do you think as a wife all you had to do was just offering your body?"
  • I looked at him in horrid and I moved my palm over my abdomen unconsciously.
  • No wonder I had been feeling a burning and pulsing sensation at my lower abdomen these few days. And I thought it was due to his aggressive actions... So he wanted to get me pregnant!
  • "Understand now?" When he saw my disbelief look, he jeered at me.
  • "... but, I'm still a student. Can we wait a little longer before..."
  • I was only 18 years old and just enrolled in college. Even if we are in the 21th century now and we had great flexibility in handling matters like this. But for a teenager that just welcomed adult life, being pregnant meant an entirely different life.
  • "Wait?" He sneered, "I have no intention in doing that with a dead fish for another seven days."
  • His words were filled with complains.
  • And I also had no intention in doing that with a ghost in grimace mask for another seven days!
  • "There are three nights left. It doesn't matter how much you loathed and dreaded it. You must stand it, understand?" He said blatantly.
  • "...Okay." I wiped off the tears on my cheek and accepted my fate. Well, I could put my studies on hold and hide at home for the time being.
  • It was early spring and the air up the south was chilly. The black panties I wore was torn because of him. And I had no other choice but to remove it and put it in my bag.
  • When I moved my legs, it brushed against my sensitive spot. And after being tormented so thoroughly for days, I hissed in pain whenever I moved.
  • He crossed his arms and looked at me like a heartless statue.
  • "I promise you. But... can you be more gentle next time?"
  • Could you also not teared off my clothes like that?
  • He sneered, "Gentle? Don't be ridiculous now. If I wasn't gentle, do you think you could still stand and talk to me?"
  • Alright. I was a fool to ask.
  • I was nothing but an offering. Why bother making negotiations?
  • Three more nights to go.
  • I stood before the mirror and wiped my face. I looked pale and my eyes were swollen.
  • "Qingxiao, hurry up!" Brother called for me in the hallway.
  • I sniffled and went out the washroom.
  • The incident yesterday had raised a furore in the internet.
  • The policemen checked through the CCTVs and they saw me entering the staffroom. Not long after, I ran out looking like a mess.
  • I appeared in the cam on every flight of the safety staircase. Only after I ran out the building and stood for a period of time, the tutor fell.
  • In terms of timing, I was ruled out of the suspicion.
  • I had to think that it was the phantom who arranged it.
  • If he were to kill off the tutor while I was still in the staffroom, then I would be in deep trouble. And if the man were to die in the staffroom, I would be the prime suspect as well.
  • Therefore he shattered the glass window and brought the tutor by the window, making sure that there were eye-witnesses that saw him sitting by the window frame and he himself 'made a leap' down.
  • Brother's acquaintance, officer Lu was about 27 years old. He had a herculean built and a pair of sharp eyes. When the serious and vigorous man stood next to me, I appeared to be lifeless and dispirited in comparison.
  • "Lu came from the special forces. He is sharp witted and hard-hearted. Be careful when you speak." Brother lowered his voice and warned me.
  • The school leaders were anxious in the meeting room. When one of the bald-headed, middle-aged man saw me, he slammed the desk in rage.
  • "Look at her, look at her! Look at how the teenage girls dress up nowadays! Huh!? Showing cleavage, and wearing a skirt in this cold weather. Isn't this asking for harassment?!"
  • The bald man continued, "Secretary, dean, officer Lu, I've told you again and again, Tutor Zhang had always been friendly with his students! It must be that this girl had toyed with his feelings, he couldn't accept it and jumped the building!"
  • "I did not toy with his feeling! And you know how hard I tried to avoid him!?" I could've ignored him if he criticized me. But saying that I've been toying with that disgusting tutor's feeling?
  • Unacceptable!
  • "He punished me to do works in the staffroom, everyone heard that! And then he cornered me in the office and forced himself on me. I was lucky enough to escape!" I tried my best to contain my emotion since I would be finishing my course here. This bald man seemed to be the tutor Zhang's relative.
  • "You can just say anything you want, who'd believe it?" The bald man fumed in rage, "You'd even slander a dead person. Look at how indecent you are, and you dare play the victim?!"
  • My brother was angered and he yelled, "Who are you calling indecent? The F***, do you think I dare not to beat you up, because you are a school leader?!"
  • "Enough!" The dean raised his voice, "What's important now is to minimize the negative influence, not finding faults!"
  • The dean turned over and spoke gently to me, "Dear student, now the preliminary conclusion is that this is a suicide case. There might be reporters interviewing you, we hope you could consider the school's reputation..."
  • I frowned and continued to listen to him. So the dean wanted to put words in my mouth, saying that I saw the tutor having a panic attack, I ran out to ask for help but regrettably he fell down to his death.
  • Before I could even refuse it, officer Lu had a disparaging smile and mocked, "I am still sitting here. And you just abet the victim to change her testimony? Are you forgetting the law?"
  • The dead smiled awkwardly. But I could tell he was cursing the officer in his mind.
  • Officer Lu paid no heed to him and turned his head to ask me, "Can you describe what happened in detail?"
  • I omitted the part where the phantom grabbed his neck and merely said that he suddenly lost his mind.
  • After officer Lu heard it, he asked me the second time. And then the third, the fourth...
  • He asked me to repeat what happened over and over again!
  • Finally when he was done, he kept his recorder and notebook. When the school leaders left, he smiled and said softly, "Guan Qingxiao, you have quite the nerves..."
  • Of course! If I didn't have the nerves, I figured I might be dying of fright the night two years ago.
  • When we got home, father was still basking under the sun. He was wearing a white singlet and wriggled on the wicker chair.
  • "Qingxiao, you're back... Argh, hurry and help me scratch, my back is itchy!"
  • I went over and pulled his singlet up, when I was about to scratch his back, I was horrified!
  • There was a blood red grimace on my father's back...
