“Mmph, Heng Yu… Don’t–Don’t kiss anymore. I came up to see you secretly when I heard you are up here. I didn’t come to look for Qin Chu.”
The voice that sounded from behind the door was soft.
Her kitten-like voice was slightly nasally, soft, and sweet. It was a dainty soft voice that Qin Chu had never heard before.
It was clearly familiar, yet it felt unfamiliar.
Was the little girl behind the door really the little girl running after him, saying she would always like him and pester him?
If so, why does it sound like she is acting coquettishly to another man? If so…
Why would she accept a kiss from another man?
Qin Chu couldn’t understand. His heart throbbed for a moment, and the deeper he thought about it, the worse the pain became.
The owner of the other voice seemed to be pleased.
He snorted softly in amusement. It sounded very attractive.
“Mo Mo, even if you lied to me, I’ll take it seriously. Remember what you promised me in bed last night? Have you resigned?”
In bed? What bed?
Qin Chu’s mind buzzed, subconsciously avoiding this. His already frozen brain couldn’t handle this information.
Another thought came to mind about the man behind the door talking about resigning. No, there is no way Mo Mo will quiet. No way she will leave Shangcheng and leave him.
Yet, the young girl, who was breathing slightly heavily from the kiss, said, “I had already submitted my resignation to the Human Resource department before I came up here. I’m leaving today after handing over my job… Mmph.”
“Haah. Don’t go too far. Mm… Don’t fool around here. What if someone comes and we get caught later?! Let’s do it at night, ugh… Don’t do it anymore.”
He said, “Send a message when you’re ready. I’ll pick you up.”
The little girl responded in agreement. The sound of water sloshing between their lips and tongue and the rustling of their clothes sounded from behind the door.
After hearing those sounds, Qin Chu’s pupils shook fiercely.
He was practically dumbfounded, even more so than the day Lu Wang Chen had picked up Xiang Yi Mo.
His lips pursed even tighter, and his gaze was fixed on the door that was blocking him, almost as if he could stare two holes in it.
Hearing the movement inside that sounded like the intimacy was about to end, Qin Chu hastily suppressed the chaotic thoughts clumped up in his head and unconsciously hid in the nearest storeroom.
Outside the storeroom, there were two different kinds of footsteps.
In the storeroom, the man hiding saw the two persons he knew so well coming out of the stairway behind the door through the unclosed doorway of the storeroom.
Ji Heng Yu lowered his head and thoughtfully pressed his lips against the other person’s red lips. Then, he grabbed the young girl’s thin waist and walked away.
Before walking away, his phoenix eyes imperceptibly glanced at the doorway of the storeroom, as well as the cigarette ash that had fallen on the windowsill.
Those are traces that… hadn’t been there before he was here.
Someone has come to eavesdrop.
Heh, maybe this person is still peeping now.
It wasn’t until the two were far away that Qin Chu exited the storeroom. His entire heart shook as the words he had just overheard echoed in his head continuously.
He stared in a certain direction for an instant.
He felt as if their intimate backs were still in front of him, even though they had gone far away.
It made the ends of his eyes glow red.
He felt like several knives had been plunged into his heart, and his heart felt like it had been cut open and was dripping with blood.
Qin Chu struggled to digest the words he had heard. He didn’t expect his other best friend, Ji Heng Yu, was also in a relationship with Xiang Yi Mo. Is Lu Wang Chen aware of this?
What is going on between the three of them?
He contemplated the two incidents from the beginning to end and the intricate relationship between the three of them now. His eyes darkened and grew cold.
Qin Chu clenched his teeth, feeling like he was about to go crazy.
He can’t believe it!
Mo Mo has undoubtedly liked him for so many years. How could she fall into the arms of another man and leave after saying she is going to leave?
Translator’s Note: The title (虐狗- Torturing the Dog) has several meanings. Firstly, it could mean “torturing the single dog” where single dog refers to singles or people who are not in a relationship/does not have a significant other. Secondly, the word “dog” could refer to describing someone who has done something small and unethical with little malice (such as telling a small lie to make the other person look bad), i.e. the despicable thing that was commonly mentioned in previous chapters.
It usually means the former plus Qin Chu was swarmed with PDA. But I feel like the author is referring to the latter in this case since, technically, Qin Chu is attached, right? Anyway, it is up to you, the readers, to decide. Just know that no real dogs were harmed in this chapter.
