"Do you need to use this method to confirm who you truly love?" An Ning asked him.
Xiao Jinxing's lips kissed her fair neck.
There was no response from her.
Only numb acceptance.
He said, "It's just a way to remind myself that you're still by my side."
With those words.
Xiao Jinxing lifted An Ning from the soft couch.
An Ning powerlessly accepted Xiao Jinxing's every gesture.
Just watched as he placed her on her bed.
Then.
He forcefully pried open her right hand, full of vase shards, and carefully cleaned the blood-stained fragments from her palm, one by one.
Afterwards.
He interlocked his fingers tightly with hers.
An Ning coldly watched Xiao Jinxing's every move.
Watched as blood still visibly dripped from his head.
Dripping from his sharply defined jaw onto her body.
Yet he seemed oblivious to it!
"Can we calm down a bit?" An Ning compromised.
She decided to yield, for now.
"How do we calm down?" Xiao Jinxing asked her.
