The Abyss

“Secret?” She glanced at the gun designs scattered across the floor. “This isn’t much of a secret. Isn’t it normal for boys to like weapons?” Lu Tuo shook his head, “You clearly don’t understand men. At my age, men usually fill their rooms with pictures of nude beauties. Adolescence is quite a torment!” Dong Qin looked into his somewhat mocking eyes and suddenly felt a bit irritated. “So, what are you trying to say? Are you a gun designer?” she asked coldly, “Do you think I would believe that?” Lu Tuo widened his eyes in surprise, “You really don’t get romance, do you? Don’t girls like you fantasize about handsome guys being merciless killers or world-shaking geniuses with just a flick of their finger?” Dong Qin shook her head, “I don’t know, I’ve never imagined that… and I’m not interested in fantasizing about you.” Lu Tuo laughed, “You’re so heartless, only hot when you’re in bed?” Dong Qin narrowed her eyes and suddenly wrapped her arms around his neck, “Want to give it a try?” she asked softly. Unexpectedly, Lu Tuo picked her up. “Sure, let’s try.” He carried her towards the bed, threw her down, and leaned over her. Dong Qin grabbed his hand in surprise, “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t touch me?” Lu Tuo grunted, lifting her skirt and caressing her smooth skin with experienced and seductive movements. “I won’t touch you, I’ll just cherish you.” His kisses landed on her neck, unbuttoning her one by one. When she felt the coolness on her chest, he had already started sucking on her breast. Dong Qin shuddered as if electrified, gripping his hair tightly. “Are you crazy? Your parents will be back soon!” His tongue seemed to be coated with some kind of sedative, numbing everywhere it touched. “They’re your parents too, and you can’t escape the trouble.” He murmured, adoring her full, round breasts, fondling and sucking, while praising her. “Your skin is so nice… What perfume are you wearing? It smells so good.” Dong Qin felt weak all over, “I… I don’t want to be thrown out, so stop right now!” Lu Tuo chuckled, “It’s not me who would be thrown out, so why should I worry?” Her blood seemed to freeze as she stared at him in disbelief. Was he a demon, using the sweetest words to deceive and the coldest to hurt? Dong Qin used all her strength to lift his head by his hair. “But I would be the one thrown out! So, I won’t let you continue!” she said fiercely. This feeling wasn’t betrayal, wasn’t heartbreak, it was just endless emptiness. She thought she’d feel hurt or sad by his cruelty, like that night three years ago when everything was destroyed. But she only felt emptiness. Betrayal, betrayal again, forever betrayal, a familiar scene replaying endlessly, even the most patient audience would start to feel empty. Her life, perhaps, could only watch this one play. Dong Qin pushed him away forcefully, laughing coldly, “Don’t get the wrong idea, I’m not desperate for you. I don’t need to risk getting thrown out for a fleeting pleasure.” Lu Tuo laughed softly, “Do you not like me? Sneaking into my room, always teasing me. Isn’t this just playing hard to get?” Dong Qin looked at his handsome face coldly, “I don’t know what it feels like to like someone, I just know when I want it, having a man nearby is enough.” Lu Tuo’s expression changed slightly, “Bitch!” He pushed her off the bed. Dong Qin didn’t move, maintaining her posture, looking up at him with a smile, “Lu Tuo, no one in this world can hurt me anymore.” She pointed to her chest, “Here, it’s already dead.” Although she was smiling, and her whole demeanor was seductive, Lu Tuo felt as if he was looking at a withered rose, her eyes devoid of any ripples, just a pool of dead silence. He remained silent.
