Chapter 2: Morbidity
“Xiao Yu… Xiao Yu?”
The gentle call became Su Yu’s only guide as he struggled in the darkness. He listened to the familiar voice, attempting to break free from the darkness’s restraints.
Am I still not awake?
Su Yu wondered, he could even feel the dry thirst in his mouth. Every cell in his body seemed to be clamoring, craving, needing water…
“Water, I need water…”
Su Yu could actually hear his own dry, raspy voice. But before he could think further, a soft touch pressed against his lips. He was about to struggle when a trickle of water flowed through the cracks of his lips and into his throat, moistening his dry, cracked lips.
He stopped struggling and began to yield to the soft touch, even actively seeking it out. This was a primal instinct. He craved water and couldn’t care less about anything else. Otherwise… he would die.
After a while, the flow of water gradually stopped, and the soft touch on his lips disappeared.
“Hehe…”
A familiar yet strange laughter echoed in Su Yu’s ears. He recognized the timbre of the voice but was unfamiliar with the chilling madness within the laughter.
The class reunion… it was her. Su Yu suddenly remembered something, his mind throbbing with the sudden influx of memories.
“Figured it out?” Hot breath brushed against his earlobe, her breathing close at hand. “So smart, but being too smart isn’t always a good thing.”
Su Yu began to frantically move his limbs, trying to break free from the restraints, but it was useless. His body had already been immobilized, and his vision was blocked by something. He was like someone trapped in a hard, cold coffin, all struggles futile, death close at hand.
He struggled, and the water he had just ingested began to be rapidly consumed. Su Yu felt thirsty again. He subconsciously pursed his lips, trying to moisten them again.
“I’ll help you…”
The voice just sounded in his ear, and the next moment, the familiar, gentle touch returned. It was Xia Qian Ge… Are we kissing?
Su Yu awkwardly shook his head. He couldn’t… His reason told him he shouldn’t crave intimacy on the verge of death. This wasn’t Xia Qian Ge, not the Xia Qian Ge in his memory, absolutely not!
But soon, Su Yu’s jaw was firmly gripped by a powerful force. It was a pair of slender hands, yet they completely restrained him. Now he couldn’t even shake his head.
“Heh, that’s a good boy.”
The woman chuckled with satisfaction. She liked this feeling. What belonged to her, no one else could touch.
She kissed him fiercely, almost biting. During the time she waited for Su Yu to wake up, she had barely been able to restrain herself.
Su Yu’s painful groans were muffled. He only felt his body begin to lose control, a forceful softness invading his mouth as if his body no longer belonged to him. Vaguely, he could even hear the delicate sound of saliva being squeezed between their tongues.
After a long time, almost out of breath, Su Yu’s breathing became more rapid. The aggressive assault only subsided slightly after a pill hidden under the woman’s teeth was pushed into his throat.
Before Su Yu’s oxygen-deprived brain could react, he had already swallowed the pill. He coughed violently, but to no avail.
“What did you give me?” Su Yu asked coldly. “You’re not Xia Qian Ge. Who are you?”
“Not her? See for yourself.”
The shackles on his wrists suddenly opened. Su Yu twisted his arms, as if reborn. He immediately removed the blindfold, and what met his eyes were those bright, spring-water-like eyes, so familiar. The person in front of him… was indeed Xia Qian Ge.
“Am I beautiful?”
Xia Qian Ge’s lips curved into a fatal arc, like a rose blooming in the midnight, its fragrance captivating, incredibly alluring. She lowered her body, burying her head in the crook of Su Yu’s neck, breathing deeply, inhaling the scent that intoxicated her.
Su Yu lowered his head slightly and could even see the pale blue veins protruding from Xia Qian Ge’s snow-white neck due to excitement. They appeared terrifyingly on the fair jade, disrupting the harmonious beauty, adding a morbid and chilling touch.
“Qian Ge… no, Xia Qian Ge.” Even with the same face, Su Yu still refused to believe that the woman in front of him was the Xia Qian Ge he had pursued for years and lived with for so long. “Qian Ge wouldn’t be like this. You’re sick. Either turn yourself in to the police or go to the hospital!”
“Haha… I’m sick?”
The blunt, vicious curse made the woman laugh. Her normally pleasant voice now sounded like a demonic sound from hell to Su Yu. Reason had been devoured, leaving only insatiable desire.
“Yes, I’m sick, terminally ill, beyond cure. And all of this…” The woman’s pearly white teeth bit into Su Yu’s shoulder, sinking deep. Her muffled words squeezed out of her throat. “…is thanks to you!”
“You’re crazy! Get off…”
The pain in his shoulder made Su Yu’s nerves tremble. He gritted his teeth and endured, but he still couldn’t help but cry out.
“As punishment…” The woman released her bite, licking the fresh blood from her teeth as if savoring vintage wine, a drunken look appearing in the corners of her slightly reddened eyes. She looked at the deep bite mark on Su Yu’s shoulder and smiled with satisfaction. “I want to leave my mark on you.”
“Why…” Su Yu turned his gaze away, no longer looking at the woman. “Why are you doing this? You’ve changed. You weren’t like this before.”
“What… Don’t you like it? Didn’t you say you would love me forever, no matter how old… no matter how beautiful or ugly… you would always love me.”
The woman forcibly turned Su Yu’s head back. She wanted his eyes to see only her, wanted his beautiful eyes to reflect only her image forever!
“I loved the old Xia Qian Ge… the one who was pure like spring water, not you. You’re just a crazy woman who has lost her mind.”
Su Yu seemed to have resigned himself to his fate. He no longer avoided her gaze. His eyes were like a mirror, reflecting the woman’s current obsessive state. His tone was calm, but his eyes held deep disgust.
And this… seemed to work. The simple words truly hit the woman’s weak spot. She abruptly stopped smiling, her nails digging deep into her flesh, the skin turning white from blood loss.
Neither of them spoke. The sudden silence plunged the room into a terrifying stillness.
After an unknown amount of time, the woman seemed to recover. She smiled again, but this time, the smile was superficial, her tone so cold that it made Su Yu’s nerves tense.
“Maybe I was too good to you before… so good that you thought I really didn’t care about anything.” The woman lifted Su Yu’s chin, a sinister aura emanating from her delicate face. “I gave you freedom, dignity, everything you wanted… but you didn’t cherish it. Now I’ll take it all back. Even if you crawl at my feet like a dog, begging me for mercy, I won’t show any pity.”
The woman suddenly sat up and began to undress in front of Su Yu, one piece… two pieces… until she was as naked as him.
She lay on top of Su Yu, their skin touching extensively, their body temperatures rising as if reaching a flashpoint.
“Actually… I’ve wanted to do this for a long time, to play with you like a toy. You’re my thing. I gave you to you, you didn’t cherish it, so I’ll take it back. Now… you have no right to choose.”
The woman turned off the bedside lamp, plunging the room into a terrifying darkness.
Su Yu’s breathing became rapid in the unknown fear. He didn’t know what he would face next.
“Xiao Yu, it’s been a year… I really can’t hold back anymore, it’s so uncomfortable… Give it to me… I want it so badly…”
The sound of the woman grinding her teeth reached his ears. She caressed Su Yu’s body, from his chest and abdomen down to his thighs…
“Su Yu, I really love you. You are my cure.”
The woman’s body, lying on Su Yu’s stomach, began to writhe, her intimate whispers stirring the most primal desires within him.
“So, give it to me, please… Save me.”
