Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 1440: Chapter 1440: You Have a Lot of Spirit

Jian Yufei watched his retreating figure, always feeling he was hiding some secret.

But everyone has their own secrets, and she wasn’t in the habit of prying.

...

After being tormented all night, Mo Lan fell into a long unconsciousness before waking.

In fact, it was thirst that awoke her.

She lay weakly on the bed, her face pale, her lips dry and peeling.

Groggily opening her eyes, through blurred vision, she saw Qi Ruigang busy with his computer, sitting at a tea table not far away.

Seeing him, she immediately remembered the humiliation of last night, and her heart seemed ready to explode with pain.

This beast, she really wished he would just drop dead!

Sensing her gaze, Qi Ruigang lifted his eyes, his deep and fierce gaze meeting hers.

”Awake?”

Mo Lan opened her mouth slightly: ”Water...”

Qi Ruigang brought a cup of water over to her. Mo Lan pursed her dry lips, feeling like her throat was about to crack from dryness.

She tried to prop herself up, but her body was so weak, it felt like it was falling to pieces.

Staring at the cup of water, her eyes shone with a desperate longing.

Qi Ruigang’s lips curled into a cold, evil smile: ”Want a drink?”

Mo Lan nodded.

”Will you obey me from now on?”

”...”

”As long as you swear, from this day forward, to submit to me, never to resist or betray me, I’ll let you drink.”

Just for a cup of water, he actually wanted her to swear.

Mo Lan wanted to scoff.

”I will not submit to you.” She looked at him and stated flatly.

Qi Ruigang’s cold eyes flickered: ”Lanlan, some words should be considered carefully before spoken.”

”I’ve thought it through very clearly. Qi Ruigang, I’ve had enough of your torment; I don’t want to live without dignity anymore.”

Once a person learns to resist, they can never fully submit.

Because sometimes, dignity is indeed more important than life itself.

Qi Ruigang scoffed coldly, ”Don’t want to drink water anymore?”

”I won’t!”

”Good, you have backbone.” As he said that, Qi Ruigang moved the water cup above her chest.

The cup tilted, and water drops immediately fell onto her body, making a pattering sound—

A drop splashed on her dry lips, and Mo Lan couldn’t help but lick up that droplet.

Seeing her reaction, Qi Ruigang’s face revealed a mocking sneer.

Mo Lan’s cheeks flushed slightly; she pursed her lips tightly, defiantly meeting his gaze.

Her clear eyes were sharply defined in black and white, but too defiant.

And what he hated most was people resisting him!

Qi Ruigang’s smile faded from his lips, his expression turning icy.

He let go of the water cup and began undoing the buttons on his shirt—

Mo Lan saw his movement and the dark emotions in his eyes, and her heart suddenly panicked.

”What... what are you going to do?”

”Of course, continue what we started last night.” Qi Ruigang threw his shirt onto the carpet...

Mo Lan’s face turned white; she had only just woken up, and he was going to torment her again!

Being with him in that way, she was truly terrified and scared...

And her body was in so much pain, all her bones ached as if they were falling apart.

If he were to torment her again, she was sure she would die!

”Hit me!” Mo Lan moved her weak body to the side, her scream filled with terror.

Qi Ruigang was very pleased with her fear, and he smiled darkly: ”Hit you? I’ve been hitting you for seven years, and you’ve never submitted to me. It seems I still have to use this method to make you completely submit!”

”I won’t submit! Even if you torment me every day, I won’t!” Mo Lan hurriedly retorted.

”Is that so? Then let’s try it.”

As he spoke, the dark and heavy mountain crashed down upon her—
