Hands bound behind her, her body was pressed against a thick branch, entwined with hemp rope.
The summer night was sultry, and many mosquitoes flittered about…
Li Qiyu listened to the insects chirping amidst the flowers. In just ten minutes or so, her body had been stung by several bites!
…
Bo Yeyuan lay on the bed, hunger gnawed at him like a poisonous knife, yet he had no appetite whatsoever.
Li Qiyu… Why did she have the power to manipulate his mood so easily?
"Miss Ye has been taken to the guest room for treatment of her burn," Leike said softly, "Young Master, have some food, please. If you keep this up, your stomach will be ruined."
Bo Yeyuan silently fixed his gaze, suddenly landing on the bedside table…
Li Qiyu's porridge was still unfinished, a little less than half a bowl left.
He picked it up without a word and began spooning it into his mouth.
Leike sighed, Young Master had suffered so much at Young Lady's hands, yet he was still deeply ensnared by her.
