Chapter 89: Chapter 73: Jie Luo? Who? (Still three updates today)

Although Angelica’s first kiss had long been stolen by Qin Chu, this time it was evidently different.

Outside the window, the night breeze fluttered the hem of the dress, and beneath the constraint of the black pantyhose was an athletically tense curve.

Shaye, floating in mid-air, smiled slightly when she saw this scene, said nothing, and consciously left.

Before, when it had been Catherine, Shaye could stay in the room, but not this time, because she could tell that Angelica held a special place in Qin Chu’s heart, with a completely different significance.

...

Shaye arrived downstairs.

She saw Catherine, who had not yet rested.

Her complexion was very strange, full of painful struggle; the woman was nearly at her breaking point.

Catherine didn’t understand what was going on; at the very beginning, when she first knew of Qin Chu’s presence, all she felt was disgust, and upon meeting Qin Chu for the first time, she felt even more repulsed.

But in such a short amount of time, the image of Qin Chu had become clearer and clearer in her mind.

She longed to be close to Qin Chu, yearned for his embrace and kisses... She hoped Qin Chu would dote on her, be more affectionate with her, just like he was with Angelica.

She felt as if she had fallen in love with Qin Chu, for the brief periods she didn’t see him, she became anxious and irritable, but just seeing that man would bring her peace.

In Catherine’s palm was a small wooden tag inscribed with two characters:

Jie Luo!

Jie Luo... He was the man she loved most.

But now she could no longer recall what had transpired between her and Jie Luo, nor could she remember why she had fallen in love with him.

She just wanted to use this wooden tag to remind herself, to never forget this name, because if she did, she wouldn’t be herself anymore.

Even looking at the wooden tag, she couldn’t remember Jie Luo’s face; chanting Jie Luo’s name, her heart was filled with thoughts of Qin Chu, whether her eyes were open or closed, asleep or awake, all she saw was the figure of Qin Chu.

She saw Angelica enter Qin Chu’s room...

She envied Angelica, how wonderful it would be if she could be the woman entering Qin Chu’s room, even just a little bit of Qin Chu’s love would be so wonderful...

She heard Qin Chu praising Angelica, how she wished to be praised too, to be intimate with Qin Chu just like Angelica, to be cherished by Qin Chu just like her.

But Qin Chu was so indifferent towards her.

She wanted to close the distance with Qin Chu but didn’t know what to do, she could only repeatedly lower her dignity and use her body to seduce.

She felt less and less like herself, she needed to calm down.

In the palace’s ice room were bottles of frozen water, Catherine grabbed one and gulped down most of it, but the confusion in her eyes scarcely diminished.

Shaye saw all of Catherine’s actions and it seemed this woman was about to completely succumb.

Indeed, it was worthy of her creation, the "City Beauty Love," one bottle was as good as three...

But seeing her like this, it might be better to strengthen it a bit more.

One bottle of ice water couldn’t bring Catherine back to normal; the calmness lasted for only a brief moment, she felt as if her body was still being tormented by flames.

Shaking her head, Catherine re-entered the ice room and downed bottle after bottle of the icy water.

Suddenly, Catherine’s movements halted, her body became motionless, like a puppet.

Clatter!

The wooden tag in her hand fell to the ground.

...

Inside the master bedroom.

Angelica had already fallen asleep, her cheeks still flushed with a hint of crimson; she seemed to be dreaming sweetly, with a serene and gentle smile on her face, occasionally letting out silly giggles.

Looking at Angelica’s slender legs covered in torn black stockings, Qin Chu also felt some regret, had he been too rough just now?

There was nothing he could do, he hadn’t controlled himself.

Qin Chu wanted a cigarette, suddenly remembering that this world had none.

Looking at the sleeping Angelica, Qin Chu’s expression also grew somewhat complex.

It wasn’t that he had no feelings for Angelica. After all, he was a perfectly normal man. With Angelica, an adorable and sexy maid devoted solely to him, there were many times he could hardly resist taking her.

But he couldn’t do it, or rather, he was also afraid.

After all, Angelica wasn’t like Catherine and the others. Qin Chu didn’t even consider Catherine and Rose Vesper human, merely targets of revenge.

However, Angelica, even when she would rather die than betray him, had become someone Qin Chu wanted to cherish. Indeed, compared to those he had once saved and assisted, only for them to betray him behind his back, Angelica, willing to sacrifice her life for him, naturally seemed different.

It was precisely because he cherished her that he feared even more.

Qin Chu worried whether he would hurt Angelica, whether he would cause her pain, whether she might not truly want it inside...

What Qin Chu feared the most was whether Angelica would betray him in the end, just like Rose Vesper and the others...

It was because of such a variety of thoughts that Qin Chu hesitated to make a move on Angelica.

But when Angelica cast aside her girlish shyness, gathering all her courage to make that agreement with him, it was then that Qin Chu finally felt Angelica’s determination, and he, at last, responded to her feelings.

His fingers lightly brushed over Angelica’s tender cheeks, and a slight smile emerged on Qin Chu’s face.

What would become of the two of them? That was a matter for the future.

Shaye was nowhere to be seen in the room...

Pushing open the door, the night breeze blew.

His face, which held a hint of tenderness just a moment ago, instantly turned completely calm, his countenance habitually adorned with a faint smile.

Qin Chu sensed some activity downstairs, thinking it was Shaye. But when he got there, he found, to his surprise, that it was Catherine.

Catherine stood there, motionless.

What made Qin Chu suspicious was that she seemed to have returned to normal. Her fair cheeks no longer looked as haggard as before, radiating a spiritual aura under the moonlight.

Her hair, previously somewhat disheveled, was now neatly arranged into an athletic, refreshing ponytail that fell all the way down to her hips, the fiery red strands glistening as before.

Red seemed to be Catherine’s color, no other color suited her better.

She had changed into a different dress, which accentuated her figure even more. The curves of her bust, waist, hips, and legs served as synonymous with sexiness, and beneath the high slit of the gown, her athletic and slender legs were revealed.

She had even put on a pair of red crystal high heels that she wasn’t used to wearing.

Catherine seemed to be about to go upstairs when she suddenly saw Qin Chu. Catherine, startled, instinctively stepped back.

Only her crimson eyes, upon seeing Qin Chu, were still filled with burning desire.

That desire, nearly frantic, made Catherine’s breathing turn ragged just from catching sight of Qin Chu. A flush spread over her face, her chest rising and falling rapidly.

Her beautiful eyes were misty, looking as if they wanted nothing more than to leap forward and clasp Qin Chu in her arms, to fuse him into her body.

It was an almost pathological feeling.

Qin Chu felt his hair stand on end just looking at her.

"What are you doing?" he asked coldly.

"Looking for you..."

"Looking for me for what?"

Catherine’s breath became a pant, her eyes silkily seductive, "I want you to cherish me... just like you cherish Angelica."

Qin Chu leaned back slightly, his tone gentle and even:

"Do you not care about Jie Luo anymore?"

Catherine tilted her head slightly, a deranged smile breaking across her pretty face, "Jie Luo?"

"Who?"
