Proofread by He Li
Chen Ying pays the bill and runs out. She throws her arms around Yuexi's neck. "You see? I treat you pretty well." Yuexi restricts herself from giggling the whole time. When these two look at each other, she cannot hold back anymore and laughs out loud like a fool. It is till then that Chen Ying notices the wounds on Yuexi’s hands. She is surprised and asks her, "What's wrong with your hands? It looks like you’re badly injured."
"They were accidentally cut by the glass." Yuexi tells her the truth, but leaves out some details. When Chen Ying called her to watch the show, she thought of her hands heavily wrapped. They don’t look quite nice and a little bit too eye-catching. Therefore, she takes off the gauze. "You do everything so carelessly! I cannot even believe that you are actually hurt by glass!" Chen Ying expects better of her.
Chen Ying has always been a self-reliant person. Her parents got divorced when she was little. Her father had a drinking problem, while her mother was bedridden with sickness. When she was in junior high school, her mother died and her father disappeared. Therefore, she has always been more sensible than her peers. Yuexi used to have a happy family and a boyfriend who was perfect in her mind’s eye. But now she has nothing, so she can understand how Chen Ying feels. Even though she looks tough, Yuexi knows that she is vulnerable at heart.
Chen Ying takes Yuexi to the mall and picks several outfits. Every outfit costs thousands of RMB. But her economic condition is better than that of Yuexi. Carrying two bags of clothes, Chen Ying says, "You can take these as your wedding gifts!" Yuexi is shocked and asks, "You disapprove of my marriage, do you? Why should you give me gifts?"
“On second thoughts, Li Fengjue doesn’t behave as badly as I thought. He not only looks handsome but also has wealth. And seemingly, he is amazing in bed." When Chen Ying talks about men, she always speaks frankly. Though Yuexi has been used to it for a long time, she still couldn't help feeling embarrassed. Then Chen Ying laughs even more evilly, "Am I right? Even if you two are divorced in the future, it’s not your loss. You have already taken what you need.”

Chen Ying deliberately puts emphasis on the last sentence. Yuexi grabs the bag by one hand and is about to run away, "Don’t let your imagination run wild. Nothing happened between us two ..." "You must think stupid of me! You two must have done the thing that is supposed to be done." Chen Ying follows her. At this moment, Yuexi's mobile phone rings.
When she realizes that the call is from Li Fengjue, she subconsciously wants to hang up. However, Chen Ying takes a faster step and grabs the phone from Yuexi. "Hello?" Li Fengjue frowns, "Put Yuexi on the phone." Then Chen Ying passes the phone to Yuexi, "Your husband is asking for you."
Now Yuexi feels a cold sweat breaking out, as if the mobile phone were a bomb that she is afraid to take. “What’s the matter?” She asks nervously. “Get the hell back immediately!” Li Fengjue answers her bluntly. Yuexi wants to explain, “I’ll be back soon, I’m just hanging out with my friend.”
“You dare to sneak out!” Li Fengjue’s voice is cold and deep. Yuexi could imagine how scary he is right now. “No, I didn’t! I told Li Rui that I would be back soon.” “Liu Rui is being punished now. If you don't come back now, he may not be able to take it anymore.” It sounds obviously like a threat.
"You … " Li Fengjue hangs up the phone when Yuexi still has something to say. She immediately tells Chen Ying, "Hurry! Take me back to Li Fengjue." Then, Chen Ying drives furiously to drive her back to the villa. On the way, she tells Chen Ying what happened.
Chen Ying smiles evilly, and there is naughtiness in her eyes. "If you cannot think of a better way to apologize, then put on the clothes I gave you. Maybe Master Li will forgive you." Yuexi cannot fathom the logic behind Chen Ying’s words. How can Li Fengjue forgive her just because of some pieces of clothing? How could that be!

Chen Ying drops her at the gate, and then drives away. She has that worried look on her face, as if she were asking Yuexi to look for blessing. Yuexi walks into the villa, trembling with fear. The minute she steps into it, she sees Liu Rui is commanding a group of servants who are doing push-ups. The scene is really something. Li Fengjue stands at the gate, and stares at Yuexi coldly.
Yuexi hurries forward, trying to pull up those who are doing push-ups. But they are not moved, and even the voices of rejection sound low and trembling. "If you want to punish someone, you can just punish me alone. Why vent your anger on these innocent people?" Since Li Fengjue is their master, they naturally dare not behave against his will.
“Look who comes back eventually!” Li Fengjue’s narrow eyes look sharp. "I just went to see a friend." Yuexi feels that she has done nothing wrong, therefore, she raises her delicate little face, and looks directly into his eyes. "Judging from your attitude, it seems that the punishment of Li Rui and others will not stop today."
Upon hearing this, Yuexi frowns. With a slightly painful expression on her face, she sets out to do the push-up herself. The wounds on her hand make her painful fingers tremble, but she clenches her teeth and persists. "It all happened because of me. If you don't let them stop, then I will do it with them." Liu Rui replies quickly, "Ma'am, you still have injuries on your hands, you must stop."
"Injuries? Your master thinks it would be better if I’m dead." Li Fengjue looks at Yuexi coldly, from head to toe, and says, "Get up!" Seeing Yuexi doesn't move, he hurries forward and lifts her from the ground. His brows curl up, and anger surges up in his eyes.
"You let me go! Why should you punish them? It is none of their business!" Yuexi always dares to take responsibilities. Even if she is Mrs. Li now, it doesn’t mean she is sold to Li Fengjue. She is still entitled to some basic human rights. "You can't run outside without my permission."
"Why? I'm not your toy. Is it wrong for me to see my friends? You have no right to interfere with my personal freedom!" The coldness remains in Li Fengjue's sharp eyes. "Fine. I won’t care if you get caught by Xu Linchen again.” Yuexi freezes and asks weakly," Did you just fear that I would be caught by him again? "
"You stupid woman, don't make something out of nothing." His words are followed by his turning around, and walking directly into the villa. "You all get up, there would be no exception next time." Yuexi quickly chases after Li Fengjue, muttering quietly behind him. "You’re acting too awkwardly. Will it kill you if you just say that you are worried about me?" The voice is soft, and she doesn’t know if Li Fengjue hears it. He goes into the bedroom while Yuexi comes to the bathroom, carrying the clothes sent by Chen Ying.
After taking a bath, she remembers what Chen Ying has said, "Put on the clothes I gave you. Maybe Master Li will forgive you." She puts the underwear in the bag on her body, only to find that it is a suit of black sexy lace lingerie! Looking at herself in the mirror, Yuexi sees her private part is partly hidden and partly visible. She thinks about Chen Ying’s words. Just when she is about to take off the underwear, the bathroom door opens with a bang, and Li Fengjue appears at the door.

Terminal
My heart was shattered that day. It was on that day that I realized that life had an end, and that mine was coming. It was on that day that I realized that I was going to die. Leukemia, they told me. It's almost over. I didn't know what to do after that. I thought that maybe it would be best to die right then, get it over with. I thought that I could push myself away from all my friends, all my family, stop them from missing me after I was gone. I thought that I could handle it on my own, that perhaps the world was better off without me. I was wrong. So please help me, I'm dying. Save me, I'm falling. They tell me I won't survive.

My name is Alyssa Gray, and by the time you finish reading this, I'll be dead. ________________________________ A few warnings and things to note: -I've put up the tramatising content tag due to a lot of mentions on death, dying, illness, and a mother who tends to be rather cruel. I know that I take a perspective that many will strongly disagree with, and I'm okay with that. Just be warned that this isn't lighthearted stuff. This is real, and death is real, and this part streaches beyond the fiction into reality. -I'm going to say a minor spoiler, but I don't want it to take you unaware because it is something to be aware of. At one point, my MC attempts suicide and fails. It's a very violent scene and I will put up the gore tag after writing this, and it's also just really depressing. If this will be triggering, you need to be aware of this before you read it. -This is a christian book. It may go against some of your beliefs. I hope that you can read and comment anyway even if some of it does not sit well with you. Credits for the cover go to the user 'Media in Sanity'. Your help and assitance has meant so much to me, God bless you in your writing and your endevours. A proud member of WriTE. I've promised to finish this fiction and update it at least once a month.

Mr Reigns
I was going to die on the stairs. Before I could actually feel the other steps of the stairs, I felt hands wrapped themselves around my waist. My eyes were closed. Why do we close our eyes when there were some dangers? That was stupid. As if with closed eyes, we weren't going to feel any pain. "Fuck. Are you okay?" I opened my eyes quickly when I heard this deep sexy voice. My eyes widened at the sexy piece of human standing in front of me. No human had the right to be that sexy. "God?" I asked. When he rose one of his perfect eyebrows in confusion, I realized how stupid I sounded. His perfect face was everything. His well trimmed beard made him look so handsome. His green eyes was hypnotizing. As his body was pressed against mine, I could feel how muscular he was. He helped up stand up and roughly let go of me. His eyes trailed to the floor. I followed his eyes to see a cigarette on the floor. "I'm sorry?" I more like questioned. Was I supposed to apologize for the wasted cigarette which was going to ruin his health? "Thank you" I said when I decided to look at him again. He was already staring at me. He was wearing a black suit. His hair was perfectly fixed. I wonder how would he look if his hair was messy and he was wearing a Jean. Noticing that he was not going to say anything else, I stared at the stairs. "I'm going to go" I simply said and walked down the stairs carefully. When I was on the grass, I gently lifted my dress so that it wouldn't be ruined and walked bare feet on the grass. I turned my head slightly to look at the man, who seemed to be observing me. He was still on the stairs, his eyes on me. He was model worthy. He did seem to the snobby type of man. I quickly turned around to face the woods. That man could take the breath away just by his looks.
