Serena let go and walked into the bathroom.

"I promise I won't keep you waiting too long."

In the bathroom, she stood naked in front of the mirror, looking at the bruises on her face and body. Her already ugly face looked even uglier with the bruises.

But Jacques made such a request at this time, and Selena knew what he was thinking without having to think about it.

"So what? It's not like I'm heartless towards him."

Selina squeezed out two drops of perfume, rubbed them behind her ears, and laughed softly.

Jacques was sitting on the sofa, listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom. His head, which had just been hit by anger, finally calmed down. In an instant, he regretted why he sacrificed his body to seduce Selena because he was angry with Emma.

Jacques felt that this was not in line with his aesthetic behavior, so he stood up and wanted to retreat when Selena came out of the bathroom. Unexpectedly, Selena opened the bathroom door wearing a thin bathrobe.

She walked out and saw Jacques standing there. She held the door handle tightly and said as if nothing had happened,

"What? You just said I was going to retreat, but now it's your turn to retreat?"

Jacques, who was very proud, naturally would not admit that he wanted to escape. He cursed in his heart, "Damn it!" and then turned around and said.

"How could this happen? I've been waiting for you for too long, and I'm getting a little impatient, so I stood up and walked around."

Selena didn't care whether what he said was true or not. Since Jacques didn't escape in time and was still here, she would not give him another chance.

Escape.

She walked over and pushed him onto the sofa.

Jacques only felt a push, and then he fell on the sofa. Although the sofa was soft and would not crush him, the feeling of being pushed down was not pleasant.

Compared to the sultry atmosphere in Selina's room, the atmosphere in Lewan's room was not so good.

After sending the police away, Le Wan did not have any abnormal reaction and was still happy to watch the movie with everyone. However, after the movie ended, she suddenly stopped Zhai Jingkai and did not let him go back to the room.

"Come to my room for a minute."

These words, which originally sounded full of wild imagination, made Zhai Jingkai shiver. He had a premonition that Le Wan must have guessed something.

Brother Le looked at him with amusement, patted his shoulder as he passed by, gave him a look that said "you're alone", then patted his butt and walked away. He had completely forgotten what happened during the day, and he had also intervened and was one of the accomplices.

Zhai Jingkai didn't have the courage to stop Brother Le from blocking the bullet for him, so he had to bite the bullet and enter Le Wan's room.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Le Wan sitting on the sofa at the end of the bed with a puzzled expression on her face, which confirmed his hunch.

Seeing Zhai Jingkai close the door, Le Wan raised her chin, asked him to stand in the middle of the room, and looked him over before saying:

"Tell me, what did you do?"

Zhai Jingkai was silent for a few seconds. Under Le Wan's increasingly stern gaze, he finally couldn't help but tell her about the deal between him and Selena and how he had deceived Selena. However, he hid some details, such as Emma being bullied in the cabin.

As a girl, Le Wan obviously doesn't like such things.

However, Le Wan was obviously not the kind of person who could be easily fooled. After listening to Zhai Jingkai's words and combining them with what the police said at the door tonight, she quickly came to a conclusion.

Zhai Jingkai sighed.

"I know I can't hide this from you."

He could only tell her everything about the criminals hiding in the cabin.

Le Wan frowned, "How can it be such a coincidence?"

Zhai Jingkai didn't think much about it.

"It is said that if you walk too much at night, you will encounter ghosts. Emma and the other two have done too many bad things, and they will get retribution."

Le Wan glanced at him.

"If you think you did nothing wrong, why do you look so guilty?"

Zhai Jingkai scratched his nose in embarrassment.

"I was worried that you would be scared if you found out."

He was afraid that she would see him being so shameless and run away from him.

Ever since the last competition when he pulled out the screws on the railing and almost caused Fu Sui to fall from the building, and this time when he chose to stand by and watch Emma being bullied, Zhai Jingkai has discovered that when he is angry, he will act more radically and unscrupulously.

Zhai Jingkai never considered himself a good person. Ever since his mother fell ill, the family's financial situation had deteriorated drastically. In order to support the family expenses, he grew up quickly when he was ten years old.

Over the years, in order to make money, Zhai Jingkai has come into contact with many people and things. Some people took advantage of his youth and tried every means to cheat him. There were even some despicable villains who, seeing that he was good-looking, wanted to harm him.

Although Zhai Jingkai is smart, he is still a child after all, so he suffered a lot in the beginning and grew up slowly. During this process, he also used some despicable means of counterattack.

However, it is true that this was the first time that Fu Sui's case was so serious that it threatened to kill someone. This was the second time, and Emma was involved.

Zhai Jingkai does not shy away from admitting the dark side of his character, but he feels fear when facing Le Wan.

Zhai Jingkai smiled bitterly.

"I'm afraid you'll think I did something wrong, that you'll be afraid of me, that you'll feel like you've fallen in love with the wrong person."

Le Wan saw his stiff back.

"Do you regret it now? If you were given another chance, what would you do?"

When Zhai Jingkai heard her question, the bitter smile on his face froze. He clenched his fists and admitted:

“If I had to do it again, I think I would still do the same thing.”

But after expressing his feelings, Zhai Jingkai stared at Le Wan's expression nervously. He was very nervous, worried that Le Wan would show fear or contempt on her face in the next second.

But after hearing what he said, Le Wan just went forward and hugged him, thinking of the story about Zhai Jing in the book.

Le Wan couldn't tell whether it was his experiences that shaped his current character or his past setbacks that led him down the dark path, but what was certain was that deep down in his heart, his moral standards were indeed different from those of ordinary people.

Le Wan understood this, but she was not afraid. Instead, she felt even more pity for him. She believed that Zhai Jingkai was a smart man, and if he had more choices, he would not choose such an extreme way to achieve his goal.

"Promise me that you won't take risks again, okay?" Le Wan softened her voice, "I don't care about others, I only care about you." Le Wan let go of her hand and looked up at him.

"I just hope you can stay by my side and not put yourself in danger for other people. That's what you told me last night. I promised you, so you have to promise me that you won't let me worry.

Le Wan didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhai Jingkai's "tit-for-tat" approach, but she still tried her best to keep Zhai Jingkai by her side. She didn't want to see him follow the old path in the book and end up with a bad ending.

A person's bottom line is broken step by step, so she hopes that she can put a rope on Zhai Jingkai as soon as possible to let him stop on the edge of the cliff instead of walking towards the abyss step by step.

When Zhai Jingkai heard Le Wan's soft plea, his inner defenses collapsed at once.

Le Wan did not despise him, on the contrary, she accepted his dark and imperfect side.

How could he not love Le Wan like this? He hugged the person in front of him tightly, not knowing how to express his love, so he could only lower his head and kiss her lips fiercely, wishing he could rub her into his bones and blood so that the two of them would never be separated.

Half an hour later, Zhai Jingkai came out of Le Wan's room in high spirits, and happened to run into Le's mother carrying two or three bags of clothes, probably for Le Wan.

When she saw Zhai Jingkai coming out of Le Wan's room, she pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth.

"It seems that I came at the right time. I didn't disturb you, did I?"

Zhai Jingkai looked calm, but his ears were slightly red.

"You're not bothering me. Do you need help?"

Mother Le waved the bag in her hand.

"Oh, it's okay. I saw some nice skirts while shopping today, so I bought them for my baby to try on. I forgot about them when you came back just now, so

I brought them to her..."

Zhai Jingkai nodded.

"I'm going back to my room first."

Mother Le saw him walk to the room across the street, open the door, and suddenly said:

"Actually, there's no need for you two to sleep in separate rooms. After all, our family is open-minded and the baby is an adult now. You can make your own decision on such a small matter."

Mother Le paused and said jokingly, "Anyway, the house is much cleaner than the hotel. Also, the soundproofing of our room is pretty good."

Zhai Jingkai didn't expect Le's mother to suddenly say such a thing. He stood there in a daze, and the blush on the tips of his ears could not be concealed, spreading to the back of his neck.

Zhai Jingkai's brain was like a boiled-over kettle. He couldn't figure out how to face the fact that he had taken his daughter to the hotel and was exposed by the girl's parents. He could only resort to the universal showdown tactic, which was to apologize first if he couldn't make up his mind.

"I'm sorry, Auntie." He stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do next, so he had to bow and apologize.

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Le's mother smiled and said, "Actually, I'm telling the truth."

They were young once, too. How could they not understand the desire of young people to stick together every day? It was normal for men and women to have sex. Le Wan was an adult now, and anyone could see how far their relationship had developed.

Seeing how they were hiding from each other, it would be better for them to live together openly. But seeing how shy the child was, she looked scared after hearing what she said. Mother Le shook her head and stopped teasing her.

"Well, it's getting late. You don't have to stand here and be punished. I was just speaking casually."

Mother Le knocked on Le Wan's door. Seeing this, Zhai Jingkai hurried into the room.

"Sure enough, we young people still show cowardice in certain things when facing experienced adults." Zhai Jingkai sighed helplessly. He looked at the empty room and touched his hand. The warm and soft jade seemed to still be in his palm.

He suddenly felt a little regretful. He should have been more generous. If he could climb up the electric pole and agree to what Le's mother said, could he live with Le Wan?

But Zhai Jingkai immediately dismissed the idea. He knew that even if Le's mother agreed, Le Wan would not agree. In her heart, the boundary between her family and her boyfriend was very clear.

"Forget it, don't think too much." Zhai Jingkai rubbed his face and thought that when they go to college, they will have a lot more freedom.

That night, some people couldn't sleep alone, some people felt warm and soft in others' arms, and some people were venting their anger.
