The Devil who devoured Snow White

Chapter 195 - Not The Man She Knew

The man in front of her was wearing a v shape sweater exposing part of his well-muscled chest. His short brown hair fell into waves. He always had a fierce look on his handsome face. The man standing by the door was none other than her childhood friend, Wrath.

Lu Mengjie wanted to ask why he was there but she couldn't. She was warned by others but she never listened. She gave Wrath her full trust. She protected him when others bad-mouthed him… so why? How could he betray her? Si Guanlin was one of the people she trusted the most ever since she was introduced to him by Si Hongqi. She had always sent letters to him even though she didn't get a reply back. When they met again, she was in college while he was in the country for business, just like his brother. Si Guanlin was like an older brother to her. He had been treating her so kindly so she decided to recruit him when she started building her organization. He was one of the first members.

"Oh sweetheart, don't look at me like that." He began approaching her with a smirk on his lips. 

Why was he doing this? Was it because of his brotherly rivalry with Si Hongqi? Or was it deeper than that? Did the elders in his family finally poison his mind against his own brother? If so… she was not going to allow the Si brothers to kill each other.

The man sat at the side of the mattress. He reached out to stroke her cheek. "I have always found you annoying. Such fake kindness you've been showing."

Si Guanlin… please… She begged but only a muffled whimper came out. She shut her eyes, hoping that it was just a nightmare. A nightmare that she wanted to forget the moment she woke up.

The moment he lowered the cloth from her mouth, she breathed in sharply but at the same time, it was covered by a pair of lips. She turned her head away, rejecting him. She was trying her best to resist him.

"GET OFF ME!!!" She shouted as she glared angrily at him.

Si Guanlin didn't listen. Instead, he moved his kisses on her neck. She tried to struggle again under his touch but failed to do so. "P-Please don't do this… Si Guanlin…" she begged. Her tears rolled down her cheeks. She didn't want to hate him. He was like a family to her so doing something like this was unimaginable. Not once did she have a dirty thought on him. Right at that moment, she knew that if she allowed him to her further, she would be defiled and her image of him would totally be destroyed. 

"HELP!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. Her heart was wretched when she felt his hand on her body. She couldn't fight him. She was so helpless at that moment. "Please…" She lost her will to fight. She was at a disadvantage. The man broke her to pieces by his betrayal. The sadistic look in his eyes was so different from the eyes of the man she once remembered. The man before her was not the Si Guanlin she knew. He was not the gentle and caring man she recognized but even if she refused to believe it, the truth was in front of her. 

"W-Why are you doing this?" she whispered weakly. Praying for someone to help her. To hear her. Anyone.

"Why you ask?" He chuckled. "Because it's fun," he replied with a wicked smile. He held her chin to make her look at him. "You can cry all you want. No one will help you. Come on, sweetheart, I want to hear you scream louder."

She shut her eyes, her tears never stopped flowing. She wanted to forget everything. Forget the cruelness that was about to happen. 

"Someone… please…" Yong Liwei's face flashed in her mind. If she called him, would he come?

"Liwei…"

Si Guanlin was about to tear off her only piece of clothing when suddenly, he was shoved away from her. He was punched on his face which caused him to fall to the ground with a loud thud.

"SI GUANLIN!"

Lu Mengjie slowly opened her eyes to see her savior. His back was facing her but even if she didn't see his face, she knew who it was. Yong Liwei. He appeared. He really came to save her. Relief filled her body as she saw his arrival. 

The atmosphere in the room became so thick as Yong Liwei glared at the man who was now sitting on the floor. "The next time you try to touch her, you'll be receiving more than that."

Huh? She looked at them in confusion.

Si Guanlin wiped the blood that trickled on the side of his lips. Instead of getting mad at the man who punched him, he let out a chuckle. "Oh come on now. I was just having some fun." He stood up and dusted off his back. "I just wondered what kind of taste she had that made you warn me on not to—"

Thud!

The man ended up falling on the floor after receiving another punch from the terrifying-looking man. This time, a kick was added, making Si Guanlin cough out blood.

"THE HELL?!! YONG LIWEI ARE YOU PLANNING TO KILL ME?!!" The other man cried out.

"I don't need a disobedient dog," Yong Liwei said, icily.

"W-What do you mean?" Lu Mengjie finally asked as she looked at them with wide eyes. "You… you know each other?"

"Of course. He is my boss." Si Guanlin staggered as he stood up again. He spat out the blood from his mouth before he began wobbling towards the door.

"B… boss?" She turned her gaze to Yong Liwei.

The man who was facing his back at her finally turned his body to look at her with dagger-like eyes at her. "Move her to my room." After giving the order, he began walking out of the place.

"W-Wait! Yong Liwei!" She called but he never stopped and looked back.
