Chapter 455: Being Deceived

The ones locked up here were Fang Yaoyao and Shengxia.

In the morning, Shengxia had just left Annan and returned to her room when she was startled by her good sister Fang Yaoyao.

I saw her stretching her waist, sitting up from the bed with a sleepy look on her face and a head full of white hair.

Shengxia was so scared that she couldn't help but take a step back.

Why did Yaoyao's hair suddenly turn white?

When she got up to look for Annan, Fang Yaoyao was still sleeping. Because of the cold weather, she was completely covered in the quilt, so Shengxia didn't notice her abnormality.

When she returned to the room, Fang Yaoyao sat up on the bed with her white hair loose. Only then did she realize something was wrong.

A closer look revealed that Fang Yaoyao's face had many wrinkles and her skin had become much looser.

Fang Yaoyao was also frightened when she saw Sheng Xia coming into the room: "Xia Xia! What's wrong with you?!"

Then she cried with some heartache: "Because of Shen Ao, you were so sad that your hair turned white overnight!"

Shengxia didn't care about her hair. Instead, she opened her mouth, pointed at Fang Yaoyao with her hand trembling:

"Yaoyao! You..."

Fang Yaoyao looked in the direction she pointed, and only then did she notice the white hair hanging on her shoulders.

What's happening?!

She turned her head left and right, looking in disbelief at her long, originally black hair, which had turned completely white.

"How is that possible?!"

Fang Yaoyao thought she was still dreaming. She immediately grabbed her hair and pulled it hard, and soon she was grimacing in pain.

She looked at the few strands of white hair she had pulled out in shock, and turned to ask Shengxia: "Xia Xia, my hair...?"

Shengxia nodded with rapid breathing: "It's white."

"How is it possible? How is it possible?!"

Fang Yaoyao couldn't accept the reality: "I don't like Shen Ao, so how could I be like you and turn gray overnight for him?"

As he spoke, he was pulling his hair frantically, as if he wanted to pull all the gray hair out.

Shengxia rushed over to stop them: "Yaoyao, Yaoyao, calm down! You will get hurt!"

Fang Yaoyao hugged Shengxia in despair: "How could this happen? How could this happen?!"

Shengxia frowned and stroked her back to comfort her again and again, while her mind was working rapidly:

"Someone must have set up a conspiracy against us."

If one person's hair turns gray, it may be because of excessive grief, but it is impossible that both of them have gray hair!

Yaoyao and Shen Ao are just friends. No matter how good their relationship is, how could they grow old together overnight because of him?

And not only their hair is graying, their skin is also aging. How can a girl in her twenties have so many wrinkles?

After hearing her words, Fang Yaoyao was a little scared: "What kind of conspiracy could make us become like this?"

Shengxia couldn't think of anything either: "Poison? Drug? Or..."

Her eyes lit up: "Hypnosis?"

It is impossible for people to age like this overnight. They may have been deceived by their own eyes!

Fang Yaoyao nodded excitedly: "Yes, yes! We must have been hypnotized. Let's not believe what we see. I can't become an old lady!"

Shengxia nodded. Then she suddenly thought of something: "That's not right! The couple upstairs just now also noticed the change in my hair..."

Fang Yaoyao simply couldn't accept her sudden aging. She gritted her teeth and said:

"They must have deceived you. Maybe they are the ones who harmed us!"

Fang Yaoyao has always had a bad impression of Annan, thinking that she is strong and mysterious. Now that something strange has happened to her, it is hard not to think of her as the cause.

Shengxia didn't think so: "I think there is a high possibility that there is something wrong with this store. Maybe they were also affected..."

Before he could finish his words, the door to their room was suddenly pushed open.

The two girls were startled and turned around at the same time, only to see a familiar figure.

"Shen Ao?!"

Shengxia and Fang Yaoyao were both shocked.

Especially Shengxia, who ran over in disbelief and grabbed his arm, looking him up and down while excitedly saying, "Shen Ao! You are still alive?!"

Shen Ao, with his head covered in snow, nodded and said, "Of course!"

Shengxia cried with joy. She thought her lover was dead, but she never expected that he was still alive.

What followed was an indescribable tension.

She didn't want Shen Ao to see her now with gray hair and wrinkled face.

Fang Yaoyao, however, didn't care so much. She put her face in front of Shen Ao and asked:

"Shen Ao, take a quick look, have we changed anything?"

Shen Ao stated truthfully: "Everything has turned white. You have aged a lot..."

Shen Ao has not been here for the past two days, so it is impossible that he has been hypnotized.

Fang Yaoyao suddenly collapsed to the ground and murmured in a panic, "It's over! It's not hypnosis, it's real... I've really grown old!"

Sheng Xia didn't bother to comfort Fang Yaoyao, but asked Shen Ao with full of doubts:

"Where have you been these past two days? How did you suddenly disappear from the inn? Also, your ring was found in the meat we ate yesterday. What's going on?"

Shen Ao did not intend to explain it to her in detail, and only said vaguely:

"I discovered some strange things and hid myself. During this time, I killed someone and my ring... accidentally fell off."

After listening to his explanation, Shengxia felt even more confused: "What's so strange? Where did you hide? Who did you kill? Why did you kill him?"

Shen Ao did not answer her question, but urged:

"Don't ask me now. Pack your things and follow me! We'll talk on the way."

Now even Fang Yaoyao, who had been crying, was confused: "Where are we going? There's a blizzard outside!"

Shen Ao looked anxious: "We have to leave quickly, it's very dangerous here! I have found a safe place to stay in the city, it's not far from here, let's leave as soon as possible."

Fang Yaoyao and Shengxia looked at each other. As friends who had been together for many years and had experienced life and death countless times, they naturally trusted Shen Ao.

Without saying a word, the two women immediately packed up their things and prepared to leave.

Especially in the middle of summer, she had originally suspected that there was something wrong with this store, but now she just thought that Shen Ao had discovered something. She hurriedly followed his instructions, packed her luggage first, and prepared specific questions to ask on the way.

Shen Ao helped them pack their things while constantly urging them, making the atmosphere extremely tense.

The two girls were already immersed in the panic of getting old and being victimized. After being frightened by Shen Ao, they quickly packed their luggage and rushed downstairs.

The first floor was quiet, and no one knew where the boss and his wife had gone. Shengxia and Fang Yaoyao looked around, followed Shen Ao's steps closely, and walked towards the door nervously.
