Chapter 641 - 193: He’s The One
Jiang Li exerted all her strength, yet she was unable to move. Her body felt as though it was no longer her own, and she couldn’t make any movement. At this moment, a tremendous despair suddenly burst forth in Jiang Li’s heart. She couldn’t save herself and there was no one to come to her rescue. It had been the same in her previous life, although she hadn’t had an affair with that man, the desperation she felt then was still vivid in her memory. Why, now that she had been given a chance to live again, must this nightmare recur?
It was even more despairing than last time.
The man laughed gleefully as he pulled away Jiang Li’s veil, but seemingly finding her current face too horrifying, he spat in disdain, "It’s a pity I can’t apply medicine to you first." He then replaced the veil on Jiang Li, covering much of her reddened skin, leaving only her lovely eyes exposed.
"Little beauty, your eyes are truly gorgeous," the man said as he eagerly began to unbuckle his belt. After shedding his outer robe, he hurriedly helped Jiang Li out of her clothes. His actions were far from gentle, more akin to those of a wild beast. The fabric ripped loudly as it slid off Jiang Li’s shoulders.
Her fair skin almost dazzled the man’s eyes, and with a grotesque laugh, he was about to pounce on her.
Tears began to stream uncontrollably down Jiang Li’s face, as if in a trance, she seemed to return to the moment of her death in her past life, with Princess Yongning’s maid strangling her neck, powerless to resist.
Just as she closed her eyes, suddenly, there was a loud noise from outside, nearly ringing in her ear. Jiang Li was startled, and the man on top of her also seemed taken aback. He stood up from beside Jiang Li—the commotion likely having alerted the people in the neighboring room. Jiang Li could only hear the sound of a door in the adjoining room being opened, presumably by the woman rushing over.
The candlelight in the room stretched and wavered the shadows of people. Jiang Li lay on the bed, unable to move. She was incapable of turning her head to see who had come, listening only to the voices of the man and woman, puzzled and on guard.
