It was obviously not cold yet, but Wen Ning felt chilly all over her body. In the dimness, her eyes were as cold as ice, and her fists were clenched and unclenched, and then clenched again.
I don’t know how long it took, but the crying outside stopped.
She didn't know how long it had passed before the door of the glass room opened, and a familiar scent slowly approached her.
Then a hand touched her forehead.
Wen Ning tilted his head and avoided Lu Yanci's touch.
Lu Yanci frowned, with a sharp look in his eyes, he pinched her waist hard and led her closer to him.
Unexpectedly, Wen Ning took his hand and shook him hard, then shrank back.
The light in the room was extremely dark and the bed was not big. Wen Ning stepped back twice and suddenly fell under the bed.
Before Lu Yanci could pick him up, he fell to the ground.
There was a low muffled sound, but there was no pain or cry, as if even breathing was controlled.
Lu Yanci looked at the small ball on the ground and went around the bed to pick someone up. Unexpectedly, Wen Ning suddenly stood up and wanted to run out.
However, her movements were not as fast as Lu Yanci's. The next second, her body was held by a hand and pulled back directly.
The light was dim and he could not see the other person's face clearly. He could only hear Wen Ning's breathing that was extremely rapid, as if he was crying.
Lu Yanci frowned tightly and wanted to touch her face, but she directly avoided it.
Lu Yanci's eyes turned cold, "Wen Ning?"
Wen Ning didn't answer and took a step back, as if he wanted to run away again. Lu Yanci narrowed his eyes and raised his hand to open the curtain.
As the light shone in, Wen Ning suddenly grabbed his wrist and bit it hard.
The strength was so strong that his whole body was shaking.
Soon, blood flowed out from his wrist.
Lu Yanci didn't move and let her bite him. It wasn't until her breathing calmed down that he said coldly: "Is that enough?"
Wen Ning slowly raised his head.
The light was half-lit, and Lu Yanci saw a pair of extremely clear eyes. There was not a single tear in them, only boundless coldness and hatred.
An uncontrollable emotion suddenly grew in his heart. Lu Yanci felt as if someone was pulling her heart out hard, and suddenly she felt a dull pain, "Ning Ning?"
Wen Ning seemed to suddenly come to his senses, the coldness in his eyes instantly disappeared, he pushed Lu Yanci away and took a step back.
Then, he turned around and ran.
Lu Yanci was still stuck in the look in Wen Ning's eyes just now. He thought for a moment that he had seen it wrong and reached out to grab it, but he missed it.
In less than two seconds, Wen Ning had already rushed out of the glass room and ran towards the courtyard door.
But the door had been closed long ago, and the housekeeper had left long ago. In the whole yard, only Lu Yanci could open the door.
Wen Ning banged the door hard several times, but the thick black steel door made only a few muffled sounds, causing no ripples in the long, cold night.
Wen Ning patted the door a few times and saw that there was no response from the door, so he went to pick at the door lock again, but this was the most advanced fingerprint lock and her fingerprints were not recorded in it at all. Even if she scratched off her fingernails, it was of no avail.
The footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and Wen Ning couldn't help but start to tremble.
He is not a good person, he is also a member of the Lu family, and he is the devil who bullies her to death!
No, he was more hateful than them. Not only did he force him to do the most shameful things, he also wanted to lock her up and make her his pet!
Soon, Lu Yanci walked up behind her, his voice as cold as water, "Wen Ning, it's so late, where do you want to go?"
Wen Ning felt the chills on his back. He turned around and leaned on his back. He looked at Lu Yanci, and his chest rose and fell rapidly.
Lu Yanci frowned and reached out to touch her face, but she avoided it. She was covered in thorns like a little beast that wanted to hurt others, and her voice was hoarse, "Don't touch me!"
Lu Yanci's eyes became colder, his thin lips stretched into a straight line, and the air around him seemed to be filled with a dangerous atmosphere.
The light shone from a distance, completely pulling his shadow on the door, seeming to cover Wen Ning's entire body in shadow.
He was already very imposing, but now that he was cold-faced and silent, the pressure became even greater.
In his powerful shadow, Wen Ning was frightened, scared, angry, and felt suffocated and unable to escape.
Everything was pressing against her at this moment, and she could hardly breathe, and slowly slid along the door and sat on the ground.
The ground was very cold and full of pebbles, which hurt her, but it was as if she couldn't feel it. She sat on the ground with her head hanging down, like a little cub that had lost its vitality.
Lu Yanci bent down to pick her up and quickly walked into the living room.
He put her on the sofa and turned on the TV.
Just when Wen Ning didn't know what he wanted to do, he opened the financial channel again.
"Restart Technology's stock market collapsed again, and President Qiao Chen failed to rescue the market again."
"Restart Technology was originally a well-known AI company in China, but it was unexpected that it would go bankrupt in just two months. It is really regrettable."
"It is reported that other capital will intervene in Restart Technology and want to acquire the group. The Qiao family is making a final counterattack to save the market."
…
The news anchor's voice came out, attracting all the attention of Wen Ning. She stared at the screen for a while, and gradually calmed down.
Lu Yanci found a small medicine box, picked her up, put her on his knees, and looked at her feet that were pricked by stones.
This time, she didn't struggle.
She didn't wear shoes just now. The foundation stones of the yard were all made of fine pebbles. The soles of her white and tender feet were now full of tiny cuts, some of which were oozing with red blood, which hurt just to look at them.
However, she didn't seem to react. She put her head on his shoulder and watched him take a wet tissue and wipe his feet clean, then apply some alcohol on them.
The wound was very painful when exposed to alcohol, and Wen Ning's feet kept shrinking in pain, but he didn't make a sound.
The whole person shrank in his arms, like a little cub that had been wronged but did not dare to complain to its parents. His eyes were a little worried and more confused.
Lu Yanci gave her the medicine and whispered, "Does it hurt?"
Wen Ning didn't say anything, just pulled his clothes and lowered his head with a confused expression.
Lu Yanci's eyes flashed slightly, "Just say it if it hurts. It's okay to cry if you want."
Wen Ning raised his head and glanced at him, his eyes evasive.
After a while, he whispered: "Can you cry?"
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she had cried. Even though she was bullied severely by Lu Yanci a few days ago and wanted to cry violently, she still managed not to shed a single tear.
After so many years, I seem to have forgotten how to cry.
Don't dare to cry either.
When he was beaten by his father when he was a child, the more he cried, the harder the beating would be. Later, when he came to the Lu family and was bullied by Lu Xue and others, if he dared to cry, the punishment would be even harsher.
Therefore, in her subconscious mind, tears are the most useless thing. They have no use at all except making herself hurt more painfully.
Lu Yan resigned, and the gloom in his eyes became darker, "Okay, did you see how Lu Xue cried just now? You can cry like that when you want to cry."
