Bi Xie had never been in a proper relationship in her entire life before dying while climbing a mountain with her best friend.
She then made a contract with a gorgeous man who crawled out of ...
Bi Xie: "It has nothing to do with your brother..."
Jiang Han: "Don't explain. Any woman would have designs on my brother. His looks are like a poppy when he smiles, but..." Jiang Han clicked his tongue twice, "when he gets angry, he's like a demon possessed."
“We’re good friends, so I’m just reminding you not to get too close to my brother, or you won’t even know how you died. Do you know my brother donated money to build a mental hospital? The people in there were all driven insane by my brother. Some of them were the old butlers of the Wei family. I don’t know how they offended my brother, but they suddenly went crazy…”
"And the third floor of the Wei family's main residence, I heard that it contains all sorts of torture instruments. Anyone who offends my brother will not have a good end."
"Didn't I tell you last time that I found my brother to be acting strange?" Jiang Han lowered his voice, "I found out that my brother turned off the heating in my room. Once, when I got up to go to the bathroom, I saw him standing ominously at my door. My heart almost jumped out of my chest!"
Jiang Han spoke for a long time, but when she noticed that Bi Xie didn't answer, she couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything? Were you scared by my cousin?"
Bi Xie remained silent for a long time before cautiously asking, "What do you think would happen if someone discovered your cousin's secret?"
"Is that even a question? Of course they'll die a horrible death!"
Bi Xie swallowed hard and suddenly fell silent.
Jiang Han continued, "The Wei family's ancestors were involved in the underworld, but they cleaned up the act by my uncle's generation. However, the Wei family's business has grown to its current scale entirely thanks to my cousin's shrewdness and competence. No one in the business world dares to go against my cousin; the few who did are all in mental hospitals..."
"Oh, by the way, I have some good news for you: my mom is treating you to dinner tomorrow, and my cousin isn't coming! Haha, I'm so happy! Just thinking about how I'll be free after tomorrow makes me even more excited than after the college entrance exam!"
As the game ended, Bi Xie stared at the flashing "VICTORY" on the screen, feeling that his future was bleak.
She lost all interest in playing the game and was extremely depressed.
Wei Zhaoye tried to kill her several times, but she fooled him each time. Maybe he just wanted to throw her into a mental hospital.
Feeling very down, Bi Xie asked Jiang Han for Wei Zhaoye's phone number and then logged off the game.
The call went unanswered.
Bi Xie tried dialing several times, and finally, on the last attempt, the call went through.
The man on the other end of the phone remained silent. Unable to fathom Wei Zhaoye's thoughts, Bi Xie chuckled and said, "Mr. Wei, did I disturb your sleep?"
After a long time, the reply came with two cold words: "No."
Bi Xie blinked, lowered his head, and drew circles on the bed sheet with his finger.
"Mr. Wei, was the secret you were referring to that day the pills that were spilled on the ground? I really haven't told anyone about this, and I promise I'll keep it to myself, so... so Mr. Wei, can you please let me go?"
Wei Zhaoye replied quickly this time, letting out a cold laugh: "No."
Bi Xie's scalp tingled: "Then what will it take for Mr. Wei to let me go?"
"Mr. Wei, are you still listening?"
"Mr. Wei, you are handsome and kind-hearted. Please be lenient and let me go this time, considering that I am just a minor. I promise to keep your secret."
"Only the dead can keep secrets." Wei Zhaoye's voice was as cold as the night.
Bi Xie shuddered. She felt that Wei Zhaoye seemed to be in a bad mood today, and his words were sarcastic and pointed.
After moving his lips for a long time, Bi Xie finally spoke in a soft, sweet voice, "Mr. Wei, Jiang and I are classmates, so could you please make an exception for Jiang's sake?"
