Chapter 72 Hell on Earth
"Siheng...Siheng...Let's go..."
Lu Zhaoxue's dream was filled with blood-soaked scenes.
Chu Siheng lay on the cold ground, blood gushing from his chest, staining his plain white clothes crimson.
His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes, which were usually full of smiles, were now unfocused.
Chu Huaiyu gripped her longsword and approached him step by step.
The cold glint of the sword in his hand reflected on his indifferent profile.
In an instant, the longsword pierced Chu Siheng's heart.
Lu Zhaoxue trembled violently, her heart-wrenching scream shattering the silence of the room: "Siheng...no!"
She suddenly opened her eyes, her gaze empty, and tears streamed down her face like broken beads.
Siheng... has something really happened to him?
Chu Huaiyu leaned against the bed railing, having fallen asleep there at some point, only to be awakened by Lu Zhaoxue's sleep-talking.
Seeing that she had her eyes open, joy instantly ignited in his eyes.
He reached out and grasped her cold palm: "Zhaoxue, how are you feeling? Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
Lu Zhaoxue's gaze fell blankly on his face, her voice hoarse: "What exactly did you do to Siheng?"
Chu Huaiyu's fingers tightened suddenly, and a hint of hurt flashed in his eyes.
The bitterness and anger surging in his heart rose and fell like a tide, but he forced himself to suppress it.
His Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice was low and strained.
"He's fine. He was just traumatized that day, which caused the poison to take effect. Although he took the antidote in time, he... has lost his sight."
"Can't see it?"
Lu Zhaoxue opened her lips, her voice unusually hoarse.
Was the reason he didn't reply to her letter, which she wrote and revised repeatedly, because he couldn't see it?
Was it because he refused to see her one last time that he was blind and didn't want her to know?
"Yes, although he can't see, his life is not in danger."
Chu Huaiyu grasped her hand in return, emphasizing each word clearly:
"I promised you I wouldn't harm him!"
"But he's blind!"
Lu Zhaoxue suddenly sat up and grabbed his collar tightly.
Sadness clung to her heart like vines, and her arms trembled uncontrollably.
"Why won't you let him go? You've already caused him so much suffering..."
"Zhaoxue, Chu Siheng going blind might not be a bad thing for him."
Chu Huaiyu's voice carried a hint of barely perceptible fatigue.
“If he weren’t blind, he would always be a threat to me.”
Even if I let him go, the people behind me will take his life sooner or later! Only now that he's no longer a threat can I truly be safe.
Lu Zhaoxue couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, her laughter filled with sorrow and mockery.
It turns out that going blind was actually a "good thing" for Siheng.
How ridiculous... utterly ridiculous...
He forced him to the brink of death, and then kicked him hard again.
She abruptly released her grip, looking at him indifferently.
The eagerness and sincerity in Chu Huaiyu's eyes only made her feel extremely disgusted at this moment.
Why did I fall in love with such a beast in the past?
This was the thing she regretted most in her life.
Lu Zhaoxue closed her eyes and lay back down on the bed.
She felt an overwhelming bitterness in her heart, and she barely had the strength to shed a tear.
"Zhaoxue, you should rest well first. I will come to see you later."
Chu Huaiyu got up, gazed at her by the bedside for a long time, and then slowly walked away.
The moment the door closed, Lu Zhaoxue suddenly opened her eyes.
His scarlet eyes surged with overwhelming hatred!
Chu Huaiyu! She's become numb to all the hurt he's caused her.
But why would he want to hurt Chu Siheng again?
Are they just supposed to accept their fate passively, without even a chance to resist?
No!
One day, they will show him what hell on earth is like!
