"Ouch! Release me! Ah!"

Shen Qingkong was pushed into the bathroom by her husband . Cold water sprayed on her head, making her scream loudly . She tried her best to curl up to avoid, but the coldness entered her bone marrow .

A moment later, Mu Linxuan threw away the sprinkler head in his hand, "Is that enough?"

"I"m serious! I have to leave you! I do not want to be a poor subst.i.tute of your love, and I will not waste my youth on you! I"ll find any man I want as long as I leave you!"

With rage in his eyes, Mu grasped the shoulders of Shen Qingkong, and lifted her with force . He then pushed her to the washbasin in front of the mirror .

"Ah--"

Her spine hit the cold and hard edge, and sharp pains spread . She pushed her husband, trying to escape from the horrible place, but it was in vain . The man pressed her with more strength .

It was more painful, and she felt as if her caudal vertebra broke . With numb legs, she felt she was losing her sense, "Leave me alone… It hurts… so painful…"

Mu Linxuan showed no mercy at all . He pinched her jaw, and stared at her in a commanding way, "Shen Qingkong, I have treated you so well that you have forgotten who you are . It"s my fault…"

he said with certain softness at the final sound . But he acted more rudely, and he opened her legs with his hands, and inserted into her body before she had any preparation .

Shen Qingkong cried, screamed and struggled . But she could not escape from the man .

The s.e.x between a man and a woman, which should be pleasant, became a punishment .

Finally, when he released her, her skin was covered with traces of that crazy moment .

Mu Linxuan pushed her away with no mercy, and saw that she fell on the ground as her body went limp, with no emotion in his eyes . He wore an indifferent look like a king, "Remember this . I"m the one who can determine the start and the end of the marriage . You have got no right of making decisions since you were sold to me . This is only a warning, and you will not want the next one!"

Mu Linxuan washed himself, put on his clothes, and then left, leaving her alone at home .

Shen Qingkong lay on the ground and shed tears . Then she burst into loud sobs .

…

Mu Linxuan did not come home again since that day .

But Shen Qingkong could see him every day .

She could see the figures of Mu Linxuan and Yu Youyou in pairs when she watched television or checked the mobile phone or read newspapers .

It seemed that even the air was full of sweet smell when they smiled into each other"s eyes .

They showed their sweetness and happiness to everyone unscrupulously . But the real Mrs . Mu was like a mouse in the drain, spying on everything at a dark corner .

Mu Linxuan…

Mu Linxuan…

Shen Qingkong wanted to pull his collar and asked him, "Have you ever loved me?"

If he loved her, why did he stay with another woman?

If he did not love her, why didn"t he let her go?

Shen Qingkong poured wine into her throat desperately . The liquid was so pungent and bitter that she could not help shedding tears . She opened her blurred and tearful eyes, staring at the wedding dress on the wall .

That handsome man was even much blurrier and she could only see that she stood there alone in the wedding dress, smiling like an idiot .
