Chapter 65: Sunshine
A stack of banknotes, mixed with a few scattered coins, was shaken out with a clatter. His gaze followed a coin that was rolling on the floor, and his eyes moved forward. The coin rolled for a long time, and just as it was about to escape the bedroom door, it suddenly lost its momentum. It struggled for a few seconds and finally fell weakly into the corner of the wall.
Su Yu took out the change he had gotten from his shopping yesterday from the shirt that was folded by the window and threw it in. This stack of loose change was like a child’s usual savings, and it was inexplicably a little comical to have it in front of him.
He didn’t know why he was still making such a meaningless struggle. He couldn’t speak the language… he had once been treated as a hysterical madman. He didn’t know where to go after he escaped. He didn’t even know how much a ticket to get away from this remote northern town would cost.
The room, at least on the surface, had no surveillance. The woman probably already knew that he was doing these shady things in private. She was watching him make these futile struggles like a hunter playing with its prey, and she was secretly laughing at the pleasure of the hunt.
But this meaningless and ridiculous action was like a thin thread, pulling him up, and it was slowly filling his gray and desperate heart.
There was probably no hope in these endless days. When his reason was dominated by anger, he had thought of simply committing suicide, or of disappearing from this unfamiliar place and becoming a homeless person without an identity.
But his life was not just his. The woman in front of him was a complete madwoman. It was as if as long as it was related to him… the gentle and intellectual woman in front of others could become so bottomless, and she was completely unpredictable. He could imagine the sensory pain that death would bring, but he didn’t dare to easily test the consequences he would have to face after he had found a way out.
The struggle to live on had pushed his spirit to the brink of despair. All that was left was this relatively healthy body, like a bright red and sweet apple, but the flesh under the rosy skin had long since rotted and spoiled.
The woman’s possessiveness, which was so strong that it was almost suffocating, made him almost unable to tell what the other party was really humbly asking for, whether it was this body or his unique soul.
How much longer could he hold on? His thoughts were running wild, and he didn’t know where he was going. He couldn’t find a single bit of room for maneuver in the countless possibilities.
The sound of the tires rolling over the ground in front of the door clearly reached his ear. The hand that was packing the banknotes suddenly stopped. It was as if because of an instinctive fear, his fingertips were trembling slightly.
The speed of his hands had increased a lot. He knew very well the woman’s almost-morbid sensitivity. He hurriedly packed up his things and tried his best to erase all traces.
…
The car stopped in the courtyard of the apartment building. The leather boots that were wrapped around her slender and exquisite calves came out of the car door and gently stepped on the small path between the green plants. Gu Zhi got out of the car with some impatience and closed the car door with a casual gesture. She walked along the small path towards the main entrance of the apartment.
After a whole half-day of rushing, she had returned two days earlier than expected. Gu Zhi had rushed back, covered in dust. Her seaweed-like, dark and curled hair was tied in a high bun, and it was a little loose. She stood in the howling cold wind and stopped, enduring the hot and scorching throbbing in her chest. She brushed away the white snow that was dotted in her hair and slightly tidied up the exquisite and three-dimensional makeup on her face before she knocked on the door with the extreme craving of a drug addict to be satisfied.
She knocked three times in a row, but she didn’t get any response. The hysterical madwoman was barely holding on to the secular etiquette and shame. The bright smile on her face was like a consumable, and it was fading bit by bit. The gentle and soft skin was so fragile in front of the monster that was stirring restlessly in her heart.
The sudden change in her emotions was often in that instant. She had rushed back with a full of joy, but all she got in return was this cold and heartless neglect. It was as if her painstaking efforts to please him were just a joke.
Was it really so hard to just look at her?
In this extremely northern land, where she had no relatives, who else could the boy rely on but her? It would have been better if she had held a whip in her hand. The obedient appearance of him, who was curled up in a corner in fear of pain, could at least give her a moment of peace for the desire that had not been vented for a long time.
Gu Zhi took out the key and opened the door. The flowing air in the house was warm. Her clenched and stiff hand mechanically and slowly relaxed. Her dark brown eyes were dyed black in the shadow of her drooping eyelashes. She bent down with a blank expression and was about to change her shoes, but she just happened to hear a slightly rushed sound of footsteps. The next moment, she saw the boy appear at the top of the stairs.
Their gazes met in the shadow of the entryway and melted in the warm air. Gu Zhi lowered her head and kicked off her shoes. Her rose-red mink coat was taken off and hung on the coat rack. When she raised her head again, her slender and snow-white neck was exposed. In an instant, she had changed into an expression of being overjoyed with happiness. She eagerly took a few steps forward and hugged Su Yu.
Language could not bear the separation of just a few days. She was completely unable to suppress her day and night thoughts. It was almost all the time, as if she had contracted an incurable addiction. She could not save herself. Only by increasing the strength in her arms at this moment could she get a moment of respite.
She was almost frantically whispering in Su Yu’s ear, her words full of a deep and inseparable love.
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have been away for so long. I’ll never do it again. Xiao Yu… Xiao Yu…”
Gu Zhi buried her head in the deep hollow of the boy’s neck and wantonly plundered the other party’s fresh and dry scent. The days in this northern country were always gloomy and without sunlight. But she could still find the unique dazzling warmth of the sun here. But her sky had no sun. Besides the other party, she had nothing to lose.
“I…”
Su Yu opened his thin, red lips, and his words suddenly stopped. He was blocked at the edge of his lips and only let out a blurry and unclear sound.
The other party’s kiss was no longer as clumsy and stiff as before. She skillfully bit his thin lips and pried open his teeth. Her soft little tongue was as if it were conquering a city and was rushing in. They were exchanging each other’s saliva, and they were holding each other tightly, feeling each other’s body temperature. This deep kiss lasted for a long time.
The biting lips slowly parted, and a reluctant silver thread was pulled out. Gu Zhi couldn’t help but curl the long corners of her eyes. Her eyes were hazy and dilated, and she was in a daze for a long time. Instead, it aroused a wave of unbearable sourness under her, and a naked and dim yellow desire was exposed.
Gu Zhi curled her bright red lips, and a moment of alluring charm was revealed. Her body temperature gradually rose, and her hot fingertips gently caressed the ambiguous and watery light at the corners of her lips. She bit the boy’s equally soft and hot earlobe and whispered seductively, “Xiao Yu, I’m a little horny…”
