The laser lights overhead flickered alternately, shining now and then, dreamlike and fantastical.
In the Feise private room, Qiao Junnan was the epitome of debauchery, engaging in all the depravity one could imagine—and even more that one couldn't!
The indecent cries intertwined with the rock music, growing more brazen by the moment and continually challenging the boundaries of marriage!
During it all, Qiao Junnan shot provocative and disdainful glances at Shen Hanqian—he wanted to see her in pain and to make her suffer even more!
Sitting in the corner of the room, Shen Hanqian drank the Red Mandrake dispassionately, numbed to such scenes by the myriad wounds that only left her in numb pain.
"He's really wild today. What happened? Did you upset him again?" Su Yueze, more beautiful than a woman and with skin more fair and delicate, donned his clothes and sat down beside Shen Hanqian looking refreshed and relaxed.
Without a hint of embarrassment, Su Yueze chatted with Shen Hanqian calmly.
"Nothing much, just the same old story!" Su Yueze was an old friend of Qiao Junnan and knew very well the state of their marriage.
Thanks to Qiao Junnan, she had grown utterly familiar with Su Yueze.
In her eyes, he might as well have been 'invisible'.
After awakening five years ago, Qiao Junnan had completely changed, becoming extremely radical. Not only did he frequent these darkest haunts, but he also always dragged her along to witness these sordid scenes with her own eyes.
Su Yueze was his partner in crime during his wild escapades; they always played, went crazy, and behaved shamelessly together.
Fortunately, Qiao Junnan never laid a hand on her and didn't let others do so either. Should she be grateful to him for preserving her chastity?
"You two..." Su Yueze started to speak but then stopped, shaking his head helplessly.
"..." Shen Hanqian took another sip of her cocktail. She wondered if there would ever be a resolution in her lifetime with Qiao Junnan.
"He does love you, this is all just a show!" Su Yueze said again!
"Don't say that under these circumstances, don't insult love. I'm going to the restroom!" Shen Hanqian stood up to leave.
If he truly loved her, why would he choose a way that left everyone in such agonizing pain?
Just as Shen Hanqian passed by, Qiao Junnan, who was wrapped around a model, suddenly seized her wrist and stared at her mockingly. "Do you know why, all these years, I'd rather touch these women than touch you?"
Shen Hanqian looked down at the man kneeling on the ground, her eyes as calm as still water. "I don't want to know!"
"Because at least they are forthright, while you do shameless things yet pretend to be virtuous!"
"Let go of me!"
Qiao Junnan refused to loosen his grip, continuing his taunts. "What's the matter, can't you stand the provocation?"
Shen Hanqian felt her heart ache as if it had been hollowed out, a tearing, bleeding pain.
She didn't understand why, even though it wasn't the first time he had hurt her, it still pained her, why there was still an urge to cry.
