Chapter 1078 - 1086: Su Jiuyi Wakes Up
Chapter 1078: Chapter 1086: Su Jiuyi Wakes Up In her stupor, Su Jiuyi felt as if she was in an icy sea. Her body suddenly turned cold, yet for some unknown reason, a scorching heat burned her skin, leaving her uncomfortable with the alternating sensations.
She wanted to move, to escape this terrifying place, but her body felt as heavy as lead. Unable to move or withdraw, she could only let herself be surrounded and swallowed by this environment.
Shi Aoju’s phone started vibrating. Worried the call would wake Su Jiuyi, he gently placed her hand back on the bed, pulled the blanket up, and then stood up, taking the phone with him as he walked out of the room.
"Hello." After a sleepless night, his voice was rather hoarse due to fatigue.
"Young Master Jue, Xiao Chen confessed," said the other person.
Shi Aoju walked to the window, raising his hand to rub his aching forehead, and asked, "What did he say?"
"He admitted to intercepting the previous shipment and setting off boner pills in your room secretly. The shot in the surveillance room and Zhao Ren’s death were also his doing," the person replied.
After listening to the complete report, Shi Aoju’s expression remained unchanged, as indifferent as before. He responded with a simple "Mm," and instructed, "Keep an eye on him, don’t let him escape."
"Yes, Young Master Jue."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Aoju leaned against the wall and lit a cigarette. Before this, he had analyzed the reason for the other party setting off boner pills in his room, and the purpose was clear—to make him have relations with a stranger.
Su Jiuyi was just a victim. The morning after the incident, he reviewed all the surveillance records and found that Su Jiuyi had been forced to drink alcohol by a difficult customer before being notified to deliver alcohol to his room.
Later, she stumbled into his room initially intending to drop off the alcohol and leave. But after smelling the fragrance, she lost her judgment and ended up losing herself to him.
Actually, this setup could be considered perfect. Every method used by the other party was well-thought-out, but they had never anticipated the outcome would be beyond their control.
Shi Aoju took a deep drag on his cigarette, then threw the mostly burned cigarette to the ground, extinguishing it with the sole of his shoe. He then turned back into the room. As he approached the bed, he unexpectedly noticed Su Jiuyi’s fingers moving.
"Su Jiuyi."
He leaned down carefully, cradling her face, and softly called out, "Su Jiuyi."
"Su Jiuyi."
"Su Jiuyi..."
"Su Jiuyi."
"Su Jiuyi."
He continued repeating her name, one call after another, gazing at the person on the bed with deep affection in his eyes. His rough fingertips gently stroked her face, wanting to awaken her yet fearing to disturb her.
His voice grew softer, nearly inaudible, but at that moment, Su Jiuyi’s fingers suddenly twitched, and her long eyelashes began to flutter.
Su Jiuyi felt her eyelids were extremely heavy, but she could hear someone anxiously calling her name by her ear. Determined to wake up, she wanted to see who was calling her.
She finally opened her eyes, but her vision was blurry, with the near face seeming shrouded in mist, not clearly visible. She wanted to touch the face, but her hand, just lifted, weakened and fell again.
And at that moment, a pair of warm large hands suddenly grasped her wrist, lifting it up. Thus, her hand touched a face devoid of warmth, a chilling, penetrating face.
