Chapter 179: Chapter 179 A Sharp Stab of Pain

She didn’t want to anger Rong Shaoze. It was better to avoid trouble when possible, so she decided to explain herself as soon as she could.

"Okay, I’ll say it." When she suddenly spoke up, Tao Hua was somewhat surprised.

Similarly, Rong Shaoze, who was sitting in front of the computer in the upstairs study, was also a bit surprised, even expectant.

Through the monitor, he could see everything in the living room clearly and could hear their conversation.

It wasn’t that he didn’t trust the two of them, but he needed to hear from Lin Xinlan herself why she was so averse to him.

Last night, her rejection was different from before. Before, it was anger and sorrow.

Last night, she was very afraid of him, a reflexive fear, an uncontrollable fear that penetrated deep into her bones.

He needed to understand the reason, to completely cure her illness.

He refused to have his woman be afraid of him, or to be unable to touch her, to get close to her.

Lin Xinlan bit her lip and slowly said, "I’m afraid of him kissing me."

Rong Shaoze was dumbfounded. What kind of strange aversion was this?

They had kissed more than a few dozen times already, she should have been used to it by now. How could she be afraid?

"Whenever he kisses me... I just can’t breathe..." Lin Xinlan was once again feeling that suffocation, and her breathing began to hasten.

Rong Shaoze and Tao Hua frowned at the same time, watching her nervously.

Lin Xinlan tried to calm down her emotions and continued, "When he kisses me, I think of that day I was drowning in the sea... At that time, I couldn’t breathe, couldn’t move... I could only wait for my lungs to burst, my heart to explode, and then die slowly in agony... That despair, I can’t describe it..."

Her voice trembled slightly with fear, and her face grew a few shades paler.

Just thinking about that day scared her so much...

Rong Shaoze’s gaze darkened, and his crossed hands clenched tightly. Suddenly, a sharp pain flashed across his heart!

So his actions back then had hurt her so deeply...

Thinking about her struggling painfully in the sea, with no one to save her, only waiting to be drowned alive, his heart ached and was filled with discomfort.

At the time, he didn’t feel anything, but now, thinking back, Rong Shaoze couldn’t help but feel terrified.

If he hadn’t managed to save her in time, would she be dead by now...

Killing a Lin Xinlan was easy, but who could give him back an identical Lin Xinlan?

The more he thought, the greater the fear inside him grew.

Rong Shaoze suddenly stood up, and with a fierce punch, he hit the solid wood table.

The table immediately cracked open with a large fissure!

Flying wood chips embedded in his hand, and blood flowed freely, but he felt nothing.

Tao Hua already knew the root of the problem. He interrupted Lin Xinlan and said with a smile, "OK, I already know the reason. Let’s stop here for now, let’s not discuss this topic anymore. Let’s talk about your family, where are you from? Who do you have in your family?"

He just wanted to pull her thoughts out and change the subject.

When Lin Xinlan heard this, she instantly put up her guard, her expression turning cold as she said indifferently, "I’m tired, Dr. Tao. Please do as you wish, I’m going to rest."

She said she was leaving and did so with a very cold attitude.

Tao Hua shrugged in confusion, no wonder Rong Shaoze was captivated by her. This woman’s thoughts were unpredictable and elusive.

As soon as Lin Xinlan entered the bedroom, Rong Shaoze immediately came out of the study and went downstairs.
