Chapter 12 Follow Me
- Qi Chenjue tilted his head and narrowed his eyes toward Muqing, his bewitching eyes emitted a dangerous vibe as he sneered. “Xia Muqing, you must be oblivious of how ugly you look right now!”
- “You...” Muqing was mad but she could not vent her anger.
- Why is he so rude? Are we even that close for him to act so casually?
- Qi Chenjue leaned backwards lazily against the seat and shut his eyes as he took a short rest and ignored Muqing who was seated beside him.
- “Where are we going?” Muqing finally asked the crucial question that popped into her mind after she calmed down.
- “We're going to attend to some matters.” Qi Chenjue answered her without any further explanation.
- “With me tagging along?” Muqing stared confusingly at the calm and indifferent Qi Chenjue.
- Finally, Qi Chenjue slowly opened his eyes and said, “You'll be waiting inside the car.”
- “Okay....” Muqing nodded. Then she felt wrong for sitting inside Qi Chenjue's car. “Uhm, Mr. Qi, I.... I think it's better for me to get out of the car here.”
- Qi Chenjue shifted his gaze toward her.
- He suddenly stretched his arm and held Muqing's right cheek. His cold fingers rubbed against her reddened and swollen skin forcefully.
- “Ah... that hurts.” Muqing yelped painfully. Tears nearly escaped the corner of her eyes again.
- “Qi Chenjue, what the hell are you doing?!” Muqing wanted to yank his hand away due to the irritation. But Qi Chenjue stopped her by holding her thin neck firmly.
- He met her eyes and said, “You're unable to endure such an amount of pain?”
- “What do you want?” Muqing could not comprehend any of the man's words or actions. Qi Chenjue had been a cloud of mystery to her since the moment she met him.
- “If you cannot endure this amount of pain, I suppose you'll suffer greatly when you find out the identity of the woman that's sleeping with Xie Tiansheng....” Qi Chenjue spoke thoughtfully as his eyes turned pensive.
- “You... You know Xie Tiansheng? Who's that woman? You know her identity?” Muqing looked at that man astoundingly.
- “Unfortunately, I do know. In fact, we're.... relatively close.” He sneered coldly.
- Muqing's face turned ashen. “Then.... did you tell... tell him about the things that happened between us?”
- Qi Chenjue curled his lips wickedly and he spoke with a hint of mockery. “Xie Tiansheng is not someone qualified to know about the things that are related to me.”
- “You....” Muqing did not fancy his arrogance. But she was grateful that his arrogance had led to her husband's enlightenment toward the sequence of events that happened that night with him.
- Muqing would curse herself in her heart whenever she thought of the things that happened that night. She hated her husband for sleeping with another woman, yet she did the same thing herself. Muqing did not go easy on herself by taking her drunken state as an excuse to give her body up to another man.
- “Do you know about the woman's identity then?” Muqing gazed at Qi Chenjue with her pale face.
- “You seem very interested in that woman.” Qi Chenjue held her face in his palm and put on a deep and meaningful smile. He pursed his lips lightly and said, “But I resented the fact that my woman is harboring so much interest toward another man's matter.”
- And even though Qi Chenjue was smiling as he said this, Muqing still felt chills travelling down her spine and she shuddered.
- Fear flashed through her welled up eyes. She stretched out her hand to remove his palm that was holding her in place. “Qi Chenjue, I am not your woman! I'm someone's wife, a married woman. Moreover, that man is not just any man. He's my husband!”
- “Oh? So what?” Qi Chenjue smirked with immense confidence. “I believe Ms. Xia would commit adultery someday as well, wouldn't you?”
- “You... Mr. Qi, aren't you being too conceited?” She had to admit that Qi Chenjue was a gem that would make any girl obsess over him, but Muqing was an exception.
- Qi Chenjue raised his brows and remained silent, looking as if he had planned out everything from the start....
- The car stopped when it reached a deserted factory located in a secluded area.
- “Young Master Qi, we're here.” A man in black outfit that was seated on the shotgun seat spoke.
- “Okay....” Qi Chenjue answered nonchalantly. “Wait for me outside of the car.”
- “Yes.”
- Muqing and Qi Chenjue were left alone inside the car.
- They were sealed off from the outside world as the drapes inside the car had been lowered.
- Muqing looked at the man beside her cautiously. “Qi... Qi Chenjue, what are you planning to do to me?”
- Qi Chenjue squinted at the girl. “I'm going to rape you first then kill you.”
- The few words left his mouth with a hint of playfulness.
- “You...” Colors drained from Muqing's swollen face. Terror filled her eyes as she scooted backwards instinctively. “You... Don't you dare to do that! It's against the law to kill someone!”
- Qi Chenjue smiled as he focused his attention into assembling a modern edition of a handgun.
- “So... you're saying that it's not against the law to rape someone then?” He asked while loading the gun, he looked toward Muqing with a bewitching smile across his thin lips.
- Muqing stared at the gun in Qi Chenjue's hand. Her mind went blank instantly.
- She had seen a lot of guns, but those were all props prepared for filming purposes. But... this gun in Qi Chenjue's hand....
