Things that haven't happened yet

"So your name is Chen Mengzhou..."

"Tell me, should I hate you or should I love you?"

"You killed my mother, you saved me, you sent me into the wolves' den, you are using me."

"I'm here to see you."

"Why, are you happy to be someone's mother?"

The girl laughed sarcastically and lit the paper money in her hand.

"My name is not Niuniu, my name is Chu Li."

This was a very strange scene, because Chu Li was talking to himself the whole time, and there was no one else around.

She looked into the distance and gave a strange smile.

Of course, Chen Mengzhou knew nothing about all this. How careless you were... I have been tracking you in secret, but you knew nothing.

Actually, I should be thanking you for killing those things. They deserved it.

But, obviously, you're not a good person either.

Chu Li loosened his hand, and the paper money fluttered down, and the flames spread.

The debris in the warehouse was ignited, and Chu Li casually stroked the space mark left by Shen Mengzhou.

Chen Mengzhou felt the spatial mark she had left behind being touched, and it happened in an instant. She didn't move, for fear of death. Even as powerful as she was, she wasn't invulnerable to fire and water, but Chu Li had. She watched as the warehouse crumbled, bit by bit, into ruins... As the last inch of flames turned to scorched earth, Chen Mengzhou activated the spatial mark.

"Chu Li, I heard what you said to me."

"Long time no see, did you miss me?"

Chen Mengzhou smiled. She was very relaxed, not seeming to worry at all that Chu Li would hurt her.

"Sorry to burn your house down, but you haven't been home in ages."

Chu Li sat in the ruins, gazing into the distance in a trance. She faced Chen Mengzhou, but he didn't look back at her. A long silence followed. The two of them sat quietly, wasting time.

Chu Li suddenly raised his head, met Chen Mengzhou's gaze, and smiled.

"I have a gift for you."

"It's something that once belonged to you, but was taken away. But that was a long time ago."
