Lu Jingci pushed open the cabinet door, entered the secret room, and looked at a camera hidden behind the wall full of photos.

He turned on his phone and adjusted the camera to record.

The video inside clearly reflects the figure in the long dress walking into the secret room.

She saw it, she saw it completely.

She found out too.

Therefore, everything she did just now was an act; she's too cunning.

She knew his true colors, which is why she wanted to return to the Xu family.

She didn't like the real him, so she abandoned him.

Lu Jingci's hands were clenched so tightly that the button almost dug into his flesh, and he could not suppress the heavy aura of violence emanating from him.

Outside the window, the cold wind howled, carrying large raindrops that pounded hard against the French windows. Amidst the rumbling thunder, it felt as if the sky itself was about to turn upside down.

In the flickering light, Lu Jingci sat on the chair, half of his profile in the shadows, his eyes so dark they sent chills down one's spine.

The smile on his lips had long since vanished, leaving only a chilling calm.

That kind of calm is more chilling than anger.

He dialed the number, his deep, gloomy voice filled with frost, "Li Chuan, check if Xu Wu Ning has come out again after returning to the Xu family's old house? Does she have any plans for tomorrow?"

Twenty minutes later.

On the other end of the phone came Li Chuan's trembling reply: "Mr. Lu, we found out. Miss Xu bought a plane ticket to the United States."

Beneath the shadows of Lu Jingci's eyelashes, his eyes were deep and dark, filled with an abyss-like gloom and morbidity.

Over the years, he has maintained a gentle and refined facade, but he has long been on the verge of collapse.

He originally thought that since he had been acting in front of her for more than ten years, he might as well act for a lifetime.

But then she discovered that everything had changed.

Why did she have to find out?

He had already told her.

"If one day you abandon me, I will definitely kill you."

But in the end, she still abandoned him.

How could she abandon him? How dare she abandon him?

Clearly, she was the one who provoked him first.

Having provoked him for two years, she shouldn't expect to get away unscathed.

His things must remain with him.

If they want to run away, then just tie them up and bring them back.

I'm not pretending anymore. The pretense has been exposed, so there's nothing left to pretend about.

If you can't have it, just steal it, lock it up tightly, tear its skirt and bully it mercilessly, then it will be his own.

Lu Jingci's eyes were now filled with only a morbid darkness and a possessive, obsessive desire, growing ever more mad, their depths unfathomable...

-

The next morning.

Xu Wuning walked out of the old house, humming a song as she was about to drive to the airport, in an exceptionally good mood.

Goodbye, Beijing. She's going to hide somewhere for a while.

She pulled her suitcase, her steps light and quick.

Once she arrived at the airport, she blacklisted Lu Jingci's sickly-looking phone number, and then she was free to roam the world.

Suddenly, a figure appeared from behind.

While she was looking down at her phone to check flight information, a handkerchief was suddenly placed over her mouth and nose from behind.

"Ugh—"

The drug instantly flooded her nasal cavity. Xu Wuning instinctively struggled, her fingernails scratching the other person's arm, and the suitcase slipped from her grasp and fell next to the car.

Her vision blurred rapidly, her limbs felt as if all the strength had been drained from them, and her consciousness gradually faded away.

She didn't even have time to see the face of the person behind her before she completely fainted.

……

When she woke up again, she was in complete darkness.

The air was damp and cold, with a faint woody scent mixed in with a hint of a familiar aroma.

This is where?

Xu Wuning felt discomfort in the back of her head. She subconsciously tried to raise her hand to rub it, but found that her wrist was firmly held by something. The cold metal was pressed against her skin, making a soft crackling sound with every movement.

Her heart suddenly started racing.

wrong.

This wasn't a hotel, nor was it her home, nor did it resemble any normal place she knew.

Xu Wuning struggled, but her left wrist was locked, her right wrist was locked, and her ankles were also secured with cold buckles, her body restricted to a bed covered with soft sheets.

She looked as if she were lying on an operating table, her long, black hair spread out on the couch, and a thin dress covering her body.

She immediately opened her eyes wide. The darkness was so intense, it was as if she were covered by a black cloth, and she couldn't see anything.

"Is anyone there?" Her voice was strained, with the hoarseness characteristic of someone just waking up. "Is anyone there?! Help—"

Sudden.

The door opened, and the light from outside shone in.

Xu Wuning's pupils contracted, and her gaze fell on the person who walked in.

It's Lu Jingci!

He was wearing a black loungewear set, and the feigned kindness in his eyes had vanished, replaced by undisguised aggression.

Xu Wuning's voice trembled, whether from anger or fear, it was hard to tell. "Lu Jingci, are you crazy? What right do you have to kidnap me?"

She forced herself to remain calm and said, "I'm still angry with you about yesterday. What are you doing now? Don't think that just because you have a good temper, I'll forgive you easily."

"Let me go, but you have to apologize to me."

Lu Jingci walked to the bedside, reached out, and slowly brushed away the stray hairs on her forehead with his well-defined fingers, then gently touched her lips.

The voice was unrestrained and seductive, "Stop pretending, you saw it, didn't you?"

"Do you think there's any need for us to keep putting on an act, given our current situation?"

Xu Wuning turned her head to dodge, and the chains rattled, but her head only turned slightly before he grabbed her chin with his other hand and gently turned it back.

Lu Jingci stroked her face, his tone gentle yet inexplicably chilling, "Why are you hiding?"

"Ningning, have you missed me? It's been a day."

"Let me go!" Xu Wuning realized he already knew, so she stopped pretending. "Lu Jingci, do you know what you're doing? Illegal detention, that's a crime!"

Lu Jingci chuckled softly, but the laughter didn't reach his eyes. "Do you think I care?"

Xu Wuning took a deep breath, forced a smile, and tried to communicate with him amicably, "Lu Jingci, let's pretend none of this happened and be friends, like we were in middle school, okay?"

"If you let me go back, I'll come visit you again tomorrow, okay?"

"friend?"

Lu Jingci repeated the two words, and then suddenly laughed.

That obsessive, manic laughter echoed in my ears, "Aren't we lovers? Why be friends?"

"You love me, and I love you too. We're going to get married, and we'll even die together, understand?"

Xu Wuning couldn't communicate normally with the yandere, and she was about to continue speaking.

But Lu Jingci's cold fingers had already slowly slid down to her waist, inch by inch. "Don't tremble."

"You're shaking so badly, are you feeling guilty?"

His lips drew near her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe, his voice low and husky: "You want to go abroad, you want to leave me, Xu Wuning, what kind of pipe dream are you having? Did I give you permission to leave?"

"Didn't I tell you before? If you abandon me, I will definitely kill you."

"Why don't you guess what you think will happen to you now that you're in my hands?"

Xu Wuning's breath hitched as she met his eyes.

The dim light from outside fell on his face, and his gloomy eyes were filled with a chilling and sinister aura as he stared intently at her.

He was completely different from the humble and modest man he had been in recent years.

This time, he completely dropped all pretense in front of her, revealing himself to her in all his true form.

Xu Wuning has always been domineering and arrogant, but at this moment, in front of this purely yandere "outlaw", she couldn't help but shudder.

Yandere is the most difficult thing to deal with. Once you get involved with her, she's cunning and twisted, and it's very hard to get rid of her.

What should I do?

Damn system, get out here already!

in situ.

Lu Jingci slowly curved her crimson lips into a smile and let out a soft laugh.

Then, he slowly began to unbutton his shirt, his dark eyes smiling as he looked at her.

Xu Wuning tried to back away, but couldn't move. "What do you want to do?"

"You..."

She had said those words to him when they were at the hotel, but now, the situation was completely reversed.

Her fingers trembled, and her heart skipped a beat. "Get off me..."
