A Star Reborn: The Queen's Return Chapter 752 Her Sunligh

At a secret base.

Located deep in the mountains. There were endless deciduous forests nearby where cold and bleak winds blew.

Xia Ling walked in alone, and the heavy automatic door slid quietly behind her. Bam— The soft sound seemed to announce her arrival as the white lights in the corridor gradually lit up and extended all the way into the depths of the mountain. As she followed the lights and turned around, her eyes suddenly widened.

It was huge.

The silvery-white metal floor, the four walls and ceiling gave off a cold and oppressive feeling. All kinds of props were on the floor and hanging on the walls: collars, whips, handcuffs…

They came in all shapes and sizes.

A man standing in front of the props looking at the bone whip in his hand seemed to be waiting for her. He was wearing a casual shirt, the thin cotton fabric faintly outlining his muscles. He looked like an oppressive and dangerous beast.

Her footsteps stopped suddenly and she shivered.

“Li Lei…”

She had never seen him like this. Holding a whip in his well-defined hands, slightly lowering his head with a contemplative look in the soft silver-white light. He looked much colder.

Like… Pei Ziheng in that year.

Gentle and cruel.

Her body shook even more and she could barely stand still.

Over there, the man noticed her and turned around. “Xiao Ling.” His low magnetic voice echoed in the silent metallic room, forming a strange lingering charm.

She subconsciously took two steps back.

Li Lei put down the whip and walked towards her. “Did everything go well on the way here? I’ve told them to seal this place. There will be only the two of us in this space, so it’s very safe. Don’t worry.”

However, she could not calm down at all and retreated like a frightened bird.

Only then did he realize that she was afraid and stopped in his tracks. “Xiao Ling.” His voice was gentler. “Don’t be afraid. I won’t hurt you.” He knew better than anyone else about how horrible it was for her to return to her nightmare. However, they had no choice. This was the only way to save Shaohui.

He made the least hostile stance and looked at her tenderly.

After a long time, she used all of her strength to take a deep breath and suppressed the fear in her heart as she walked towards him step by step. “I’m fine…” She said with difficulty. “Shaohui is still waiting for us. Let’s get started.”

As they got closer, they could hear each other’s breathing.

Xia Ling still looked pale as she looked at his handsome face without hesitation, forcing herself to cast aside the horrible thoughts in her mind. Her breath was short, her heartbeat was in disarray, and she broke out in cold sweat.

Li Lei warmly said, “Relax, Xiao Ling. Before we start, can you tell me what is our safe word?”

“Safe word?” She was too nervous and did not react immediately.

Li Lei was slightly startled. “I did some research become I came. I heard that this sort of arrangement has a safety word to ensure the safety of the… masochist.” In the process, the crying and begging of the slave was a form of delight for the sadist. Thus, even if the slave pleaded for mercy, the sadist would not stop.

Unless the slave said the safety word. It was the only word that would make the master stop.

This was the agreement between the slave and master to ensure the safety of the slaves.

Xia Ling finally understood what he was talking about and looked a little absent-minded. No wonder she did not respond. In her past life with Pei Ziheng, that sort of word… did not exist. In the year of purgatory, even when her endurance reached its limit, the man would never be soft-hearted or pity her.

All of her screams, struggles, and cries could not be exchanged for the slightest glimmer of light.

Now, looking at Li Lei, her eyes turned red and she almost cried.

Li Lei felt that something was wrong. “Xiao Ling, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing.” She frantically shook her head. After thinking about it, she said, “Let’s use ‘sunlight.'”

The man in front of her was her only sunlight in her darkness. In the beginning, he led her out of her horrible nightmare and past life, so he could definitely do it again. This word made her feel alive.

Li Lei nodded. “Ok. Let’s change our clothes first.”

He casually took out a set of leather outfits that he had prepared and took off his thin cotton shirt and trousers. He was only wearing his low-waist black boxers and was about to wear the leather outfit.

“That… you also have to take that off.” Xia Ling whispered.

Startled, Li Lei realized that she was referring to his boxers. He did not know why, but his handsome face was slightly heated. He looked at the leather outfit in his hands. To be specific, it was just a few leather straps connected to a few pieces of leather. It looked very strange. If he removed his boxers, what… could this cover?

Looking at his dumbfounded expression, Xia Ling couldn’t help but laugh, and her originally depressed mood faded a little. She said, “Let me help you. Take that… off first.” The man in front of her had perfect proportions and was comparable to the world’s top male model. When he stood in front of her like that, she couldn’t help but blush.

Li Lei really took them off. He had such a perfect body that she didn’t dare to look at him.

She took the item from his hands and tried to focus on the thin leather straps, not daring to look at even an inch of his body.

Even so, her ears had already turned red.

“We’re already an old couple.” He said softly as he mocked her. “Why are you so shy?”

“Since when are we an old couple?” She rebuked. The last time she saw him naked was a long time ago, such that their son was so old now. However…

She was still embarrassed!

Li Lei laughed softly. “You’re really cute.”

“You’re the cute one!” She got angry and forced the leather strap around his waist. She really wished she could strangle this man. Seriously, why did he have to work out till his body was like that? Was it to seduce others?!

In annoyance, she didn’t realize that the tension between them eased a lot. She was no longer pale, and her forehead was no longer covered in cold sweat.

Li Lei looked at her with a gentle expression.

After a long time, she finally put the leather suit on him. Technically speaking, it was leather, but more accurately, the outfit was made of a post-modern abstract style as the scraps of leather barely covered him. Large parts of his chest and legs were exposed, revealing his compact muscles.

She only felt the blood rush to her head and was blushing very hard. She tried her best to avoid looking at him.

“You can be like this.” He chuckled. “Look at me more and get used to it, or else, we won’t pass the membership interview at the club.”
