"Okay, then speak slowly. If you're truly in pain, don't continue, I can't bear to see you suffer like this!" Luo Chao opened his eyes wide, controlling himself, so tears wouldn't fall.

"Mm, thank you, Luo Chao!" Yan Ruyu responded softly.

"That day, the sky was especially clear, the moon was full and bright, and moonlight poured down like flowing water, like wisps of gauzy fabric hanging down; many bright stars were blinking, with a festive look, but it was during that beautiful night that my lifelong nightmare began, waking me from countless nights in terror, making me feel the urge to tear myself apart every single day." Yan Ruyu's expression remained pained, with her slender hands gently clutching her chest.

"That year, I was sixteen, on that day, my father came home very early; he hadn't been drinking and even brought some food back. I remember it was the first time he came back early; the first time he brought something back; the only day he didn't give me money or hit me; the only time he spoke to me with a smile and made me food... That day, he told me a lot, saying he was wrong before for not taking good care of me, so he wanted to change and take good care of me? Do you know how moved I was listening to him back then? I was so moved that I cried, feeling like the happiest person in the world at that moment..." Yan Ruyu slowly reminisced, speaking as if savoring the moment endlessly.

"That evening, the meal my father cooked was delicious..." Yan Ruyu spoke dreamily, "But while eating, somehow I fell asleep?" At this point, self-mockery and disdain appeared on Yan Ruyu's face.

"What nonsense about changing, what nonsense about taking care of me? It's all bullshit, a beast, no, worse than a beast!" Suddenly Yan Ruyu broke free from Luo Chao's embrace, tore at her hair fiercely, shouted, and cursed. Previously, Yan Ruyu had always appeared charming and sweet in front of Luo Chao, but now her foul language was inconsistent with her image. However, at this moment, Luo Chao did not mind; his entire focus was on Yan Ruyu's emotions, with no energy left to consider anything else.

"Sister Ruyu, don't be like this, don't continue, don't continue, it pains me to hear you—" Luo Chao grasped Yan Ruyu's hands and hugged her tightly, speaking with concern.

"Luo Chao, just let me speak. This secret has been pressing on me for six years, suffocating me, and I don't know how much longer I can endure. Throughout these six years, you are the first to care about me, the first person willing to listen to me." Yan Ruyu buried her head in Luo Chao's embrace, crying bitterly.

"Alright, you can speak, but promise me you won't tug your hair or harm yourself anymore, okay?" Luo Chao felt conflicted; he didn't want Yan Ruyu to voice her secret and bring herself pain again, but he also wanted Yan Ruyu to speak it out, knowing the pain of holding a secret inside her heart.

"Mm, okay, I won't harm myself anymore!" Yan Ruyu looked up at Luo Chao and whispered.

"That night, in the unknowing, I fell asleep. The next morning, when I awoke, I found myself still lying in my bed, without a single piece of clothing on, feeling a painful soreness, and beside me lay a person. He had long hair, wasn't handsome, looked around twenty years old, just lying beside me. He also had no clothes, on his body, a strange-shaped item, with almost dried blood on it. I couldn't understand what had happened? Do you know how it feels when everything shatters, how the pain tears at your heart and lungs, as if something is constantly clawing at your body, a knife stabbing at your heart bit by bit? The urge to rip open your chest—" Yan Ruyu's body trembled, a faint trace of blood staining her eyelids.

"I know, I know, I know how that feels!" Tears finally rushed out like a river breaking its banks, uncontrollably pouring from Luo Chao's eyes, heart-wrenching pain. Luo Chao had felt this ripping pain, angry curses at the heavens when Liu Qianyu left him heartlessly, when Han Xinyu betrayed him. This agony, sorrow, sadness could no longer be described in words, not even desperation could fully portray it. Luo Chao knows that the pain which pierced his heart couldn't compare to Yan Ruyu's situation; her pain was a hundred thousand times more intense.

Even though today's society doesn't hold the same view regarding virginity, Luo Chao knows that giving one's first time to the person they love the most is an immense happiness, but for Yan Ruyu, to have her first time taken inexplicably, unknowingly, to call it pain, to call it hurt, doesn't suffice as a description.

Tightly wrapping Yan Ruyu in his embrace, Luo Chao didn't know how to comfort her at this moment, he could only hold her tightly, providing her a place to rely on.

"That person, his name is Li Bin, the son of Qingmu Society's president, Li Yang, the young master of Qingmu Society!" After a while, Yan Ruyu's voice came, and Luo Chao could sense the cold feeling when she mentioned Li Bin's name; even he felt chilled.

"Li Bin?" Luo Chao murmured, his eyes flashing with cold light, a murderous impulse rising intensely; for this moment, in Luo Chao's heart, even the eighteenth layer of hell was too light a punishment for Li Bin.

"Later, I found out that my father was a gambling addict, owing Qingmu Society a lot of money, money he couldn't repay. Hearing Qingmu Society's young master, Li Bin, was lustful, my father thought of a solution where he wouldn't have to repay the debt—offering me to Li Bin. So he found Li Bin and proposed this idea; Li Bin was thrilled and immediately promised that once he had me, my father's debt would be wiped clean. Overjoyed, my father then drugged the food, knocking me out, proceeding smoothly for Li Bin to possess me—"

"Such a father, worse than a beast, should go to hell, to be tortured eternally, never to be reborn!"

Luo Chao felt his chest was about to explode; he had never felt such hatred for anyone, not even for that vile, shameless Li Bin who possessed Yan Ruyu. At this moment, Luo Chao's eyes were blood-red, a faint stream of blood tears slowly flowing down, enraged. Luo Chao was truly enraged, never having imagined the world could have a father like that!
