The sweet and gentle boy is actually crazy and bad.

The girl squatted in the corner with her knees drawn up to her chest, sobbing softly.

Wen Zhi was taken aback for a moment, then reached out and pulled her into his arms, gently patting her back: "What happened? Tell me, okay?"

Wen Yisheng's body stiffened, but she did not touch him or push him away.

His body temperature and breath enveloped her, as if possessing a reassuring magic.

Wen Yisheng recounted her experience of being kidnapped by a pervert while nestled in his arms, albeit haltingly.

With each word she uttered, she was forced to recall the panic she had experienced.

Unconsciously, she clutched Wen Zhi's clothes tightly at his chest, trembling as she leaned close to him, trying to absorb more of his body heat.

As Wen Zhi listened, his expression grew increasingly angry and embarrassed: "Ah Sheng, are you sure this person is the same one who forcibly kissed you at the training camp?"

"...It's him."

Wen Zhi hugged Wen Yisheng tightly, as if he was blaming himself and feeling lingering fear.

After a long pause, he lowered his eyes and let out a painful sigh: "Go call the police, your brother will go with you, okay?"

Wen Yisheng raised her red eyes, her wet eyelashes trembling.

Of course she knew to call the police, but she had a premonition...

The black screen of the community's surveillance cameras is definitely related to that pervert.

That person is simply a high-IQ monster who defies humanity, ignoring all rules and having no bottom line!

But Wen Zhi's determined gaze gave her confidence.

Wen Yisheng wiped away her tears and nodded: "Yes, I'm going to call the police."

~

It was already afternoon when I left the bureau.

Ultimately, Wen Yisheng's case was not successfully filed.

There wasn't a single clue; there wasn't even a trace on her body, let alone that person's DNA.

When the police officers who received the call inquired about the situation, Wen Yisheng was completely unaware of the abnormal circumstances.

Apart from……

The information is that he and she went to the same school.

Should we make a scene that the whole school knows about? And then face those strange looks from teachers and students again? And what if we can't catch the pervert in the end?

So, with the police officers questioning her mental state, Wen Yisheng fled.

It's no wonder the police officers who received the call were puzzled.

Wen Yisheng was like a frightened little bird, wary of everyone, and easily frightened by the slightest noise.

—Except for the handsome young man who accompanied her to the bureau.

Wen Zhi drove her back to her old neighborhood.

He was worried about Wen Yisheng's current situation, and gently but firmly suggested, "You can no longer live in this neighborhood. It's too remote, there are no security cameras in the alleys, and the security measures are practically nonexistent. Now you know how dangerous it is for a girl to walk alone at night."

Wen Yisheng was stunned, and tears fell silently down her cheeks.

Their pitiful state was so heartbreaking to see.

"I didn't mean anything by it..." Wen Zhi said regretfully, reaching out to pull the person into his arms. "I'm sorry, don't cry. It's not wrong to walk at night, the one who's wrong is that bastard who hurt you."

Wen Yisheng is actually quite strong and calm when she is out in public.

More than three years after her parents died in a car accident, it wasn't easy for her to live alone as a girl before coming to the Wen family. Many times, she was bullied because she was kind, so she couldn't show any weakness in front of outsiders.

But ever since she arrived in Beijing and entered the Wen family home, she has been unlucky enough to have more tears and more vulnerability than she has in all her years of life.

"Would Ah Sheng like to go back to Hetang Bay to live?" Wen Zhi asked softly, stroking her hair.

"I really can't let you stay here any longer. I know you're... getting a little annoyed with me. I'll go back to the Wen family home."

Wen Yisheng suddenly froze.

She slowly got up from his embrace, creating a normal distance between them, and wiped away her tears: "I'll pay you the rent."

When his arms suddenly felt empty, Wen Zhi paused for a moment, then smiled slightly: "Okay."

She must still have some resentment towards him.

Because of that little Qilin.

Without delay, Wen Zhi accompanied her back to her rented apartment that afternoon to pack her luggage.

The stairwells in the apartment building are narrow and cramped, dark and damp, and away from the sun.

Wen Zhi followed Wen Yisheng with a frown on his face almost the entire time.

Ugh.

—How could his precious child live in such a horrible place?

He wished he could build a palace, draped with gorgeous gowns, just to be worthy of her.

Wen Yisheng glanced back at him every few steps she went up, looking nervous and uneasy.

"I live on the sixth floor, are you tired?"

"How could that be? My stamina is probably better than you think," he replied with a laugh.

Wen Zhi knew that her cautiousness stemmed from fear; that incident had left an indelible mark on her.

And Wen Zhi, the vicious perpetrator who caused her trauma.

He was certainly heartbroken, but he didn't regret it.

In fact, he didn't want to do that either.

But why did she keep distancing herself from him? How could she treat him like that?

She doesn't answer the phone, doesn't reply to text messages, ignores being called, and completely ignores being blocked in the classroom.

As if they were complete strangers?

God knows how loving and intimate they used to be. Wen Zhi's initial calm and patience gradually turned into irritability.

Does Wen Yisheng really think he won't get angry?

He must have said that betrayal is not allowed.

Heartless girls need to be punished to learn their lesson.

That's why laboratory confinement came about.

Afterwards, he voluntarily accompanied her to the police station; who would have thought that?

—He is that perpetrator.

~

And so, Wen Yisheng moved back to Hetang Bay once again.

The stark contrast between this top-tier luxury residence and the decades-old community is striking; the sheer number of supercars and luxury vehicles in the underground garage is astonishing.

Wen Yisheng put down her luggage and went to take a shower. When she came out, Wen Zhi had already prepared dinner.

After the meal, Wen Zhi really didn't intend to stay any longer.

He tidied up the kitchen, untied his apron, and reached down the black coat hanging on the entryway rack: "I'll be going now. You can stay here and make sure you have a safe place to stay. Call me if you need anything."

Wen Yisheng's eyes flickered, but in the end she didn't say anything to stop him.

"Take care on the road."

Wen Zhi nodded, a smile playing on his lips, and bent down to change his shoes.

The door closed completely, and his figure disappeared. Wen Yisheng's heart skipped a beat, and she hurried to the door but stopped abruptly.

Anxiety and fear crept over her, and she looked around the spacious, silent house, unable to suppress her fear.

The abnormal, hoarse, and rough voice still seemed to echo in my ears.

—I will always be watching you from the shadows.

"Impossible." Wen Yisheng reassured herself and closed her eyes.

My phone suddenly beeped with a notification sound.

She felt better and walked towards the bedroom, turning on her phone as she went.

She received two text messages from unknown numbers on her phone. When she opened them, she felt a chill run down her spine.

"Ah..." she screamed, her legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground, trembling all over, her phone lying face down on the floor.

8:35 PM; [Baby, why are you living with Wen Zhi again? That's naughty.]

[You were so much better behaved when I tied you up. Look how beautiful you are. I kind of regret not finishing it off.]

Attached diagram.

Wen Yisheng almost collapsed and went crazy after only glancing at the picture.

She covered her face in anguish, picked up her phone, and dialed Wen Zhi's number, "Please come back..."

In the underground parking garage, Wen Zhi sat quietly in the car that hadn't started, his eyes hidden in the shadows. He closed his laptop as soon as he received the call: "Okay, I'll be right back."

Wen Zhi had the key, and when he opened the door, he saw the girl sitting on the floor.

He quickly went over, reached out, picked her up and carried her to the sofa, wiping away her tears: "Why are you crying again? It's okay, your brother is here."

Wen Yisheng is very cold.

Wen Zhi's embrace was clean and gentle, just like him. She clung to him, drawing warmth from his body.

"He...sent me a text message, he's been secretly watching me, he knows everything, I can't escape..."

"A text message?" Wen Zhi asked calmly. "May I take a look?"

Wen Yisheng reacted violently, shaking her head repeatedly, "No, no!"

"Then I won't watch it..." Wen Zhi patted her back reassuringly.

Finally, Wen Yisheng leaned against him and slowly fell asleep.

Wen Zhi carried her back to the bedroom, gently placed her on the bed, covered her with the blanket, bent down and kissed her between the eyebrows, "Baby, I'm sorry."

After that, the two returned to their previous state.

They went to and from school together, ate meals at home, and the library on the third floor seemed to become their exclusive base.

night.

The first thing Wen Yisheng did when she got home was to do her homework, while Wen Zhi went to the kitchen to make a late-night snack.

As I opened my Chinese textbook, a neatly folded strip of paper suddenly fell out of the pages.

Wen Yisheng actually didn't dare to look at this kind of thing, but she had a strange feeling, so she unfolded the note.

The note had two lines of neat handwriting—
