Chapter 53: Went Mad (1)

As the time passed, Shen Yu’s body grew heavier and heavier. It was as if his body was filled with lead. Yet, his mind was sober, he could clearly sense the way the woman’s hands wandered on him. His throat felt like it was on fire. “Go away...”

It took him a while but he squeezed these words full of difficulty. His loathing tone was condensed due to the essence making his voice hoarse which sounded quite contradictory.

The woman’s playful laugh rang in his ear. She pretended to feel regretful and spoke with impunity, “C’mon now Mr. Shen, don’t be shy. I’ll do my best, Brother Rong told me to serve you well. ”

Shen Rong impatiently urged her, “Why are you spouting so much nonsense? Hurry up and do it!”

The woman paused, she suddenly became nervous, “Oh... Okay.”

Although the woman deliberately made her appearance look like she’s experienced, Shen Yu could feel that she was lacking. She was anxious and desperate, her hand shakily stretched out to his nightgown belt, it took her a full minute to untie it.

From this moment, Shen Yu was no longer struggling to speak. He stared dazedly at the ceiling, his cold eyes were mixed with both anger and despair. He slightly gasped. There was already a thin layer of cold sweat on his face. Still, he forced himself to calm down and tried to persuade the woman who was pulling is robe off his body. “If you... want money... I’ll give you ...” Shen Yu said, “I can give you as much as I can...” It felt like he had used all of his strength saying this.

Unfortunately, the woman didn’t take his words to seriously at all. Instead she casually retorted, “Mr. Shen, I don’t want your money. I only want a child.”

“...” Shen Yu was speechless, his anger reached to the point his chest was hurting.

When the woman spoke again, she coquettishly uttered, “Would I still need to worry about having no money after I bear a child coming from the Shen family?” Having said that, she became determined to change from her dilly-dallying a moment ago. She gritted her teeth and turned over as she sat onto Shen Yu’s waist.

“Mr. Shen, I’m sorry.” The woman apologized solemnly.

Shen Yu closed his eyes.

He was like a man climbing on the edge of a cliff. It felt like there was someone who’s pulling him down as well as someone pushing him from above. His every movement were not in his control, both hands of his were pried open, then he rapidly fell.

The darkness in the abyss was like a vigorous vine, wrapping him tightly and slowly devouring him... Just as Shen Yu was about to give up from his struggle, he suddenly felt a strong burst of light. Opening his eyes, he saw Tang Li’s face. Tang Li wore a Western-style suit at the banquet. His body was shining brightly as it was almost blinding him. Tang Li stood there motionless and stared expressionlessly at Shen. His delicate facial features were filled with indifference. His eyes were cold as if they were strangers.

“Chestnut,” Shen Yu shouted anxiously. Tang Li obviously heard his (SY) call, but he didn’t move, not even a step forward.

“Chestnut!” Shen Yu felt flustered for no reason. He couldn’t wait to go to Tang Li’s side. However, he sensed that his body became significantly heavy, it felt very burdensome to move. He was so nervous, he swallowed his saliva then called out to him again, “Chestnut, can you come here? My body can’t move. Come and help me. “

Tang Li was still motionless. He was staring at Shen Yu, his eyes reflecting a somewhat peculiar tinted color in them. After a while, Tang Li responded with a complex expression: “Shen Yu, I already have a boy I like. Can’t you let me go now?” Shen Yu froze. For a moment, he was somewhat tense, anxious to what Tang Li would say next.

As expected, Tang Li said, “I don’t know if you have had any thoughts about me but I’ll tell you clearly that I am a living person, not one of your personal belongings. Just because you raised me doesn’t mean that you can put a claim on me.”

Shen Yu hurriedly explained, “I’m not. I didn’t...”

“Really?” Tang Li asked softly, “Are you really telling the truth?”

Shen Yu was silent. He didn’t dare look into Tang Li’s eyes.

Despite the fact that he didn’t want to admit it so badly, he had to acknowledge that he did regard Tang Li as his own multiple times——so much that when he knew that Tang Li would possibly have someone he liked, he would go mad with jealousy. Nevertheless, Shen Yu was well aware that his jealousy is extremely ugly... Tang Li was no longer uttering any word, so he turned and walked away. Shen Yu watched as Tang Li’s figure disappeared into the light, warm liquid rushed out of his eyes like broken beads.

The woman who was stuffing medicine into Shen Yu’s mouth felt tear drops on her hand. She froze and looked at Shen Yu’s moist peach blossom eyes and the tears overlapping from them. The movement of her hand stopped and she felt her heart soften at once.

Shen Rong, who was holding the camera, rose from the sofa and walked towards the woman gloomily. He saw the woman’s pity and hesitation. After all, the woman was timid, also it was impossible for her to escape now. Hence, he half coaxed and half threatened her “Once you’ve shot an arrow, there’s no getting it back [1]. Even if you let him go now, he won’t remember your kindness. Instead, he will turn around and send you to the police station.”

“But I...” the woman started.

“No buts!” Shen Rong looked at Shen Yu, whose eyes were shut in pain. He then recalled all of his experiences that he has encountered in the past five years, leaving only wild hatred in his heart. He eagerly wanted to see Shen Yu fall from the high clouds down to the mud. He had been looking forward to this day for far too long and tonight was his only chance!

“Now, we are like grasshoppers on a ship. If something happens to the other side, no one would be able to flee.” Shen Rong stared at the woman’s eyes. He gnashed his teeth [2] and squeezed out some words, “Therefore, don’t give me any setbacks. Otherwise, we’ll die together.”

(TN [2]: 咬牙切齿/yǎoyáqièchǐ an idiom means displaying extreme anger / fuming with rage between gritted teeth)

The woman’s scalp became numb from Shen Rong’s sharp eyes. She fervently nodded her head. “I got it.” she responded.

Shen Rong nodded in satisfaction. He raised the camera and was about to take a seat back on the sofa. Just then, there was a knock on the door. Both Shen Rong and the woman’s expression changed. The two of them quickly glanced at each other and saw fear present in each other’s eyes. “Brother Rong.” The woman panicked with a low trembling voice. “What are we going to do? someone’s here!”
