Chapter 571: Never Leaving Him

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

That night, Xiao Yi went crazy for four hours.

He lost all control of his emotions as his rationality seeped away from him like a dwindling flame in the cold winter.

The drug addiction acting up made his self-control very weak.

Every time he hurt himself, Xia Yanran would hug him tightly.

Both of them were covered in scars and injuries.

However, she did not give up on him.

She knew that the process would be very challenging and painful.

However, she was not afraid.

After exhausting all of his energy, the man collapsed on the floor.

His chest injury had split open again, as blood oozed out. His shirt was completely drenched by his sweat, while his forehead was also covered in blood.

Xia Yanran helped him back into the cave with difficulty, and although she was completely exhausted from what had happened, she did not feel sleepy at all.

Her eyes were filled with tears as she cleaned up his wounds for him.

When Xiao Yi woke up, Xia Yanran was sleeping against the bed.

He stared at her for a few seconds, his expression slightly dazed.

When he recalled himself hurting her last night, his eyes darkened.

He lifted the strand of hair by Xia Yanran’s cheeks. There were several red scars on her face, scratched by him. Just looking at them was alarming.

Why hadn’t she left? He did what he could to force her to leave because he did not want to let himself hurt her.

He did all he could to stay alone, because he would lose control of his rationality when the drug addiction acted up and injure others easily. He had almost strangled the young girl that saved him the last time because of this.

However, this foolish woman in front of him actually stayed with him for several hours.

She was covered in injuries made by him!

Xiao Yi’s expression darkened as he leaned against the wall, taking out a cigarette from his pocket.

He placed it between his lips. He wanted to light it up several times, but after a while, he gave up.

The moment he moved to place Xia Yanran on the bed, she woke up.

She opened her sleepy eyes, rubbing them like a child as she stared at the man in front of her. She smiled brightly at Xiao Yi, “Didn’t you used to say that I looked really ugly when I slept? How long have you stared at me? Why didn’t you wake me up?”

Seeing that Xia Yanran did not throw a temper at him after she woke up and instead, continued to smile so brightly at him, Xiao Yi’s heart constricted terribly.

His expression tensed as he scolded, “Stupid pig!”

Xia Yanran cupped her face, her long eyelashes fluttering. “If I’m a stupid pig, then you’re a chauvinist pig.”

Xiao Yi lifted his long hands and patted Xia Yanran’s forehead once without holding back. “Does it hurt?”

“I’m not made of steel, of course it hurts!” Xia Yanran wrapped her arms around the man’s neck, as her pretty face leaned towards his. “It’ll stop hurting if you kiss me.”

Xiao Yi pushed Xia Yanran’s face away with his palm, his expression complicated. “You should see how ugly you are first.”

“Weren’t they caused by you?”

The moment she said that, a dead silence took over.

Xia Yanran poked her tongue out, acting apologetic for saying the wrong thing. “It’s not like I’m disfigured, it’ll heal naturally after a few days.”

Xiao Yi pushed Xia Yanran away as he sat up from the bed and face his back towards her. “Stay away from me in the future.”

Xia Yanran did not even hesitate in her reply, “Don’t even think about it. I’ve already decided to help you quit your drug addiction.”

Xiao Yi furrowed his straight eyebrows, “If I hurt you a few more times, you can forget about living.”

Xia Yanran had already thought of a plan, as she huffed, “You can just wait and see.”

Xia Yanran went out for a while, headed to the shop to borrow a chair and two thick ropes from the lady boss.

Xiao Yi furrowed his eyebrows again when he saw what she had brought back. “You want to tie me up?”

Xia Yanran nodded, “It’s to stop you from hurting me and to stop you from hurting yourself!”

Xiao Yi merely replied, “Scram!”

Xia Yanran did not say anything. She then took off her clothes in front of him, standing in front of him only in her underwear.

Several bruises had appeared on her jade-like fair and smooth skin, as well as countless big and small wounds.

Just one glance was extremely alarming.

Xiao Yi furrowed his eyebrows once more, wanting to scold her. However, at the sight of her smile as she acted like nothing had happened, he swallowed all of the ugly words he wanted to say.

Xia Yanran stared at his dark expression, as she posed like a victor. “If you want to injure me even more, then I won’t tie you up!”

Xiao Yi was speechless. This woman had been a little arrogant recently!

“Xia Yanran, aren’t you afraid?”

To be honest, Xia Yanran was afraid. But, compared to that fear, she had a stronger hope that he could regain the life of a normal person.

Xiao Yi leaned against the bed, lighting up a cigarette. “When Second Master Qin asked for me to meet him, apart from wanting to take away 70% of all my earnings, he also wanted me to traffic drugs for him. I didn’t agree in the end, and Second Master Qin’s men shot at me. I was in the warehouse where they kept the drugs then, and one of them shot the boxes that contained the spray drug. I didn’t manage to hold my breath in time and got contaminated…”

“Second Master Qin should had known that I wouldn’t agree to him trafficking drugs for him in Ning City, so he planned to get me addicted first. If I don’t manage to quit the addiction and go back now, I would only be arrested by the police if I don’t agree to his conditions!”

Xia Yanran moved forward to hug his head. Her eyes were slightly red. “You will beat it.”

…

The arrogant and stubborn man probably did not want to hurt her again, as he ultimately agreed to get tied up.

When the evening rolled around to midnight, his addiction acted up again.

His temper was bad and arrogant and when he lost his rationality, he cursed to no end like a drunken sailor, yelling out all kinds of unsavory words. He even wanted to stand up from the chair to punch her.

Xia Yanran had tied all of his hands and legs up. She acted like she did not see or hear anything as he rolled on the floor in pain, his expression distraught as he scolded and shouted until he was hoarse.

It would continue for several hours every night.

It was a good thing that his addiction was not deep since he had only inhaled the drug once. Finally, after an entire week, his situation improved.

Today, it was bright and sunny.

Xia Yanran bought a scissors and a razor from the shop, and even brought over a set of clean male clothing.

She helped the man cut his scraggly hair, then helped him to shave the stubble on his face clean.

Although he had lost quite a bit of weight, his handsome face was still as charismatic as ever.

His facial features were like a masterpiece by god, as he looked extremely perfect.

Xiao Yi stared at Xia Yanran, who had helped to pull him out from the puts of his despair and pain. His large hand caressed her pretty and well-defined face, as if he had a million words to say, but did not know how to tell her.

He had lived a violent life since young, and there had been so few that he was truly able to place in his heart. He was loyal and held his emotions very close to his heart.

He remembered everything deeply about what Xia Yanran had done. The only repayment he could give her was to not pull her into the darkness of the mafia world.

Xia Yanran put down the razor. She caressed his clean and handsome chin when she noticed him staring straight at her. “I’ll take you around the village later. We’ll see who else dares to say that you’re a man-eating devil.”

Xiao Yi pulled Xia Yanran, who was squatting, up to make her stand between his long legs. Xia Yanran hugged his neck, looking down at him. “I didn’t think you were very handsome last time, I only thought that you were a hooligan. Why did you suddenly become handsome now?”

Xiao Yi did not say anything, merely pulling Xia Yanran’s head down to kiss her.
