Chapter 607: Chapter 587: Then, let me be your woman!_8
"Mm!" A nervous flush spread across Jiang Yinuo’s face as she stood still and responded.
It seemed she had already forgotten her terror in the old cinema. But Qin Fan knew this wasn’t forgetfulness. Jiang Yinuo was deliberately suppressing it deep in her heart.
If she couldn’t overcome this hurdle and dispel the shadow over her heart, she could be plagued by nightmares for the rest of her life!
"Qin Fan, you should take a shower, too."
Seeing Qin Fan gradually approach, Jiang Yinuo panicked for no apparent reason. She quickly avoided his gaze and spoke with a quavering voice.
"Alright!"
Qin Fan made no other moves toward her. He knew what she needed most right now was some emotional space, so he didn’t stop. With a reassuring smile, he brushed past Jiang Yinuo and walked straight into the bathroom.
As the soft rustle of undressing came from the poorly soundproofed bathroom, Jiang Yinuo shivered violently. The blush on her cheeks spread all the way to her ears.
She murmured softly to herself, What’s wrong with me? What is wrong with me! What is wrong with me!
The next moment, her face burning, she ran to the luxurious king-sized bed. Lying down sideways, she pulled the soft velvet quilt completely over her head.
In the darkness under the covers, with her eyes wide open, her breathing grew increasingly rapid.
Although she tried to stop herself from thinking about the old cinema, the images swept through her mind uncontrollably.
The blush faded from her face, replaced by a deathly pallor. Her body, hidden beneath the bathrobe, began to tremble uncontrollably as tears of fear streamed from her eyes.
"Qin Fan... Qin Fan... Qin Fan..."
As if her personality were fracturing, Jiang Yinuo could no longer withstand her psychological defenses being breached by the horrifying memories.
Suddenly, she ripped the quilt away and screamed in terror.
Her body arched as she shot upright in bed. She hugged her curled legs tightly, her trembling form an unmistakable display of her deep-seated trauma.
In the bathroom, Qin Fan flinched at the sound of Jiang Yinuo’s terrified scream. With a single motion, he swept on his bathrobe. A panicked expression on his face, he bolted out the door. Less than two seconds passed between her scream and him reaching her bedside.
Without asking why, Qin Fan immediately pulled Jiang Yinuo into a tight embrace.
"Don’t be afraid! Don’t be afraid! I’m here, I’m here!"
Beneath his voice of immense pity and love lay an overwhelming, murderous fury.
He didn’t need to ask. He knew Jiang Yinuo’s trauma had finally erupted uncontrollably.
"WAAAAH!"
"WAAAAH!"
"WAAAAH!"
The moment Qin Fan held her, it was as if she had found her safe harbor, and she burst into loud sobs.
Yet the body he held couldn’t stop trembling. "Qin Fan, I’m scared, I’m so scared!"
As she spoke, her trembling grew more frequent and violent.
"It’s all over! It’s all in the past! With me here, no one can hurt you! No one! Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid!"
Gently patting Jiang Yinuo’s back, his eyes misted over.
"Why? Why? I never offended anyone! Why would they do this to me!" Curled up in his embrace, Jiang Yinuo cried miserably like a helpless child.
"Yinuo, I’m sorry! I’m sorry!"
Tears finally escaped his misty eyes and streamed down his face as he gritted his teeth.
If it weren’t for him, Jiang Yinuo would still be happily enjoying the innocence of her ivory tower. If it weren’t for him, she would never have been kidnapped. If it weren’t for him, she wouldn’t be suffering from this trauma.
In the end, his presence had brought Jiang Yinuo not happiness, but disaster. A disaster she should never have had to endure at her age.
"What am I going to do? What am I going to do?"
As if she hadn’t heard him, Jiang Yinuo kept trembling and speaking through her sobs.
Before Qin Fan could respond, her small frame suddenly struggled. She opened her mouth and once again bit down hard on his shoulder.
Clenching his fists and furrowing his brow, Qin Fan remained silent, letting her vent all her fear and pain into the bite.
From that moment on, the entire suite fell into a dead silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
The seconds ticked by, turning into minutes.
Jiang Yinuo did not loosen her bite. She seemed completely unaware, even as blood began to seep from the wound on his shoulder.
Only through this desperate, biting release did her body gradually begin to calm.
After what felt like an eternity, once her emotions had finally stabilized, she released her bite.
By then, the sight of Qin Fan’s shoulder was horrifying.
The spot she had bitten was starkly white, and blood oozed from the deep teeth marks.
Without special treatment, that mark would last a lifetime.
"Yinuo, are you feeling better?" Ignoring the state of his shoulder, Qin Fan asked softly, his voice full of guilt.
Sniffling, she looked at the wound she had left on Qin Fan’s shoulder. "Qin Fan, I’m sorry! I... I couldn’t control myself just now!"
"It’s my fault," Qin Fan said, his voice laced with pain. "My selfishness has made you endure far too much—things you never should have had to. Yinuo, this is what I owe you."
He had anticipated this day might come, which was why he had arranged for Amber to secretly protect Jiang Yinuo.
But he hadn’t expected it to come so soon, or for the attackers to be so powerful.
