CHAPTER 222
At this point, Liu Xueyi knew it was going to be a miracle for him to escape answering that question.
At first, it was no big deal and just knowing may change a lot of things between them but he loved the mystery, especially knowing he alone had the memory of that night.
But at this time, he could tell it bothered her and not having an idea of what transpired may cause more worries and that was one thing he wished to avoid.
"If that is what you truly want, I do not see why I should hide that from you any longer."
Instantly a slow smile worked its way across her face and into her eyes. "Thanks."
"No worries. You have every right to know as much as I do. Now, brace yourself."
He had barely gotten those words out of his mouth when Andromeda turned full on the chair, bringing both of her feet up on the sofa.
The look of pure interest in those beautiful eyes of hers radiated her innocence, adding a certain charm to her already enchanting figure.
"Stop being this way," Liu Xueyi commented calmly while swallowing hard.
Unknown to her, he was trying to prevent anything that could trigger his hormones at this point.
Unfortunately for Liu Xueyi, with the way she sat down, having her shoulders slouched and hunched, he had a clear view of her soft cleavage.
"Xueyi?" Andromeda called out, hoping to snap him from whatever thoughts had captured his mind.
"Huh…"
'Xueyi!" She half yelled, breaking him from his trance as he blinked severally in response.
She watched his eyes seem to scatter about while trying his best to focus on something else.
"Hey, bring your mind back here," she puffed her cheeks at him and folded her arms underneath her bosom.
What she had no idea she did, was to push her breast up, bringing her cleavage further up into his ever-ready eyes.
"Umm, don't do that either."
Before she got to ask what, he meant by that, Liu Xueyi reached for her hand and used it to pull her body over to him, forcing her to turn around, so her back rested on his chest.
"Rest your lovely head while I tell my tale."
Slowly, he reached for her hair and circled some strands around his fingers as his mind took him down memory lane.
"That night when I came into your room began with bliss. I honestly did not know what to do or say when you wrapped yourself around me and kissed me. However, although my desires were highly fueled by the drugs and wine, it was blissful."
"Okay, before you tell me how you felt, skip those details to when you…" Andromeda took in a deep breath, before saying the exact same words. "Before you took my virginity."
'Well, taking your virginity was one part and you know for one that it is hard to skip the foreplay aspect."
"Skip it. I recall all of those."
"Fine. Here I go."
**Flashback**
Liu Xueyi's eyes widened a fraction with his eyes entirely fixed on her face.
He felt she just had her orgasm but when his gaze trailed back to her face, he noticed more and more warm liquid rolling down her eyes and falling on his hand close to her face.
It was at this point that the realization dawned on him.
Without saying a word, he immediately whipped his head back down while his hips stopped their movement as he reached down between them and gently touched his shaft.
By the time he brought his hands back up, he peered deep at the liquid staining his fingers.
He needed to be certain it wasn't what he thought it was.
Sadly, it was… Blood!
Instantly Liu Xueyi felt a pang of pain in his head as he became sober to some extent.
Slowly he shifted his gaze back to her teary eyes. Just the sight of her in pain from what he had done left him guilt-filled.
His chest tightened and his heart clenched. Every emotion he felt was masked with guilt and hate.
Guilt at what he had done, while his blood boiled in complete hatred for taking advantage of another.
"I'm sorry," he muttered softly to her and immediately moved away from her.
Rolling to his side, Liu Xueyi let his eyes drop close for some time as he fought with the pain, desire and hate whirling inside of him.
No matter what the drugs were making him feel, the image of the blood he saw staining his fingers from the faint light in the room, kept on replaying in his mind.
Several feelings were mixed up in his head at that point and he felt like running away but with each passing second, he felt his headache build up some more.
Suddenly he heard a faint whimper at his side. Not wasting another second, he snapped his head in her direction, to see if she was still in pain.
To his surprise, her eyes remained shut while her face contorted a bit in pain.
"Hot… burning…" He heard Andromeda whimper.
He hated himself but he knew he needed to do something to calm her down, considering he could not bring himself to treat her in the one way his body requested for.
He had taken advantage of her once, doing it for a second time was not part of it.
Without a second thought, Liu Xueyi propped himself up as he picked Andromeda up from the bed, carrying her bridal style with her head resting on his chest and her hair covering her face.
Quickly, he trailed his gaze to the bathroom door, as his eyes held a strong firm. Taking the first step, he brought her there and quickly placed her in the bathtub.
The second he stood back on his feet, his head spun with the headache hitting hard in his head.
"This is bad," he whispered to himself as she held his head with his left hand, while his right hand turned on the water and waited for the bath to fill up.
"I may not be able to relieve you that way, but I pray and hope the burning would stop and this can help."
