Destined with You

“It’s nothing.”

Gu Qingxin shook her head, crossing her arms over her chest. She didn’t like exposing herself this unguardedly in front of him.

“Did I hurt you?”

Beiming Han’s face darkened. Had he not treated her well enough? Yet she kept giving him the cold shoulder!

“I’ve gotten used to it.”

Gu Qingxin pressed her pale lips tightly. Moisture gathered at her long lashes. She did feel accustomed to it. Every time she was with him always involved pain, didn’t it?

“Used to it…ha…perfect! Then continue getting used to it!” Beiming Han lifted her up abruptly and carried her back to the bedroom, where he positioned her with her back turned towards him on the bed.

In the moment Beiming Han possessed her, the pain was unbearable for the young girl. She had gritted her hands into tight fists, her nails digging deeply into her flesh.

This time, Beiming Han didn’t stay with her to sleep as he had before. Instead, he turned and walked out of the bedroom without any hesitation.

The sound of the door he slammed echoed deafeningly.

Blinking, Gu Qingxin tried to adjust her body, finding it hard to move. All she could do was laying in the bed awkwardly, her entire body trembling.

After Beiming Han didn’t return the entire night, Gu Qingxin realized that she hadn’t changed positions and had slept through the night as such.

Aunt Zhou knocked on her door. Gu Qingxin quickly pulled the quilt over herself. When Aunt Zhou asked if she needed to get up for breakfast, Gu Qingxin told her she was still tired and wanted to sleep a little longer.

“Do you want me to call Doctor Bai over to take a look?” Aunt Zhou noted her weak spirit and grew worried for her.

“I’m fine, just tired. I want to sleep a little more.” Gu Qingxin absolutely didn’t want Bai Jingqing to see her, not in her current state. She didn’t want anyone to see her like this.

Aunt Zhou didn’t push any further upon seeing her refusal and left the room.

Aunt Zhou felt puzzled. Had her lady and the young master had another quarrel?

After laying in bed for a while, Gu Qingxin realized that she couldn’t fall asleep. She got up and took a shower herself and went to the wardrobe to change clothes.

As she was taking off her top, she saw the wounds on her back through the mirror. The scabs were forming, and the wounds would heal once those fell off.

She was just about to put on her bra, but the mere attempt almost broke the newly formed scabs. The sharp pain left her breaking out in a cold sweat.

The door to the wardrobe was knocked on. Gu Qingxin hurriedly pulled on a white pullover.

“Miss, your phone is ringing.” Aunt Zhou came in with her phone.

“Oh, thank you.” Gu Qingxin took the phone and saw Bai Qianqian’s number on the screen.

All Bai Qianqian asked about was her college registration situation. After chatting for a while, they hung up.

“Miss, Doctor Bai mentioned that your wound can heal quicker if it is aired.” Seeing that she put her clothes on, Aunt Zhou couldn’t help but add.

“What…” Gu Qingxin froze in her spot.

“Is there something wrong, Miss?”

“Oh, it’s nothing.”

Gu Qingxin turned to get a pair of nipple covers, but a strange feeling struck her. So, it was Doctor Bai’s instructions not to wear a top.

So, she had misunderstood Beiming Han…

But, his seizing of any opportunity to bully her was a fact too…

Even though this crossed her mind, Gu Qingxin’s delicate brows still furrowed unconsciously.

“Aunt Zhou, is the young master at home?” Gu Qingxin turned around to ask.

“No, the young master hasn’t returned since he left yesterday.” Aunt Zhou responded.

“So, can 1 go out for a bit today?”

Gu Qingxin planned to visit her mother at the hospital. The university registration was the next day, so she had to go home and get her books.

“The young master didn’t say you can’t leave the house….”
