Chapter 640 I Want Revenge

Huo Baiwei looked at the hand that Cen Xiu stretched out and suddenly smiled.

She actually has nothing now, and hatred is probably the driving force for her to live.

What else could she do?

Is she going to continue to live in this hopeless state until she is finally killed by the fierce ghost?

"But I know my own limitations, and there is no way for me to take revenge now."

Cen Xiu still didn't take his hand back and just kept looking at her.

He also kept reaching out his hand to her, waiting for her to grab his wrist and stand up.

"if--"

Cen Xiu moved his lips, "What if I say I am willing to help you?"

Huo Baiwei was stunned.

She narrowed her eyes. "What did you say? You want to help me?"

"Cen Xiu, do you know what you are talking about?"

Cen Xiu smiled. He did not answer Huo Baiwei's question, but just raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Why, you don't even dare to avenge yourself now? You are so cowardly that you refuse even the opportunity that comes to you?"

Huo Baiwei frowned.

"Don't try to provoke me. It's no longer effective against me."

She is neither timid nor cowardly.

In fact, there is no need to prove it to Cen Xiu.

When you are alive, you always have to fight for yourself.

But if even staying alive is a luxury, what's the point of talking about striving for honor and revenge?

Cen Xiu looked at her and spoke every word slowly, and each word fell into Huo Baiwei's ears along with the sound of the night wind.

"I just feel like you don't seem like yourself."

"The Huo Baiwei I know is quite ambitious."

"Why are you so timid now, like a mouse in a dark ditch, afraid to see the light of day?"

This sounded really harsh.

Huo Baiwei turned her eyes away calmly.

Cen Xiu's gaze made her subconsciously want to avoid it.

She herself is not a strong person.

After experiencing great ups and downs, experiencing the separation of life and death in one night, and after the people who loved her the most left her, she just wanted to shrink into her own shell and hide herself.

And her personality also makes her always want to escape when encountering problems.

Although she herself knew that escape was useless.

But even though she knew it, there was nothing she could do to change the status quo.

"Cen Xiu, you are actually wrong. I am not a rat in the gutter. Maybe the rat in the gutter will dare to crawl out one day, but now I am just like you said, timid and cowardly. I just want to shrink in my own turtle shell."

After all, what can I do if I am not timid or cowardly?

Does she have the ability to avenge herself?

Since you have nothing, the most important thing is to live well.

Cen Xiu shook his head slowly, with a hint of sarcasm in his voice, "Huo Baiwei, you are not even afraid of death, but you are afraid of facing the hatred in your heart? You are afraid of taking revenge?"

"It's a pity that I don't have a mirror, otherwise I would like to show you what you look like now."

How do you look now?

Huo Baiwei raised her head.

"You don't need to tell me what I look like now. I'm so ugly."

Cen Xiu did not refute and said that she was not a coward.

No one refuted and said she was not ugly.

He just looked at Huo Baiwei and nodded slightly.

"Well, it's pretty ugly."

"It's ridiculous for someone to not even dare to avenge himself."

"Huo Baiwei, if you leave by yourself, you will die sooner or later."

"You know what you did in the past, and you know there are many evil spirits who want to take your life."

"You know what consequences you will face if you refuse what I say. But you still have to be a turtle, Huo Baiwei. Revenge is actually not as difficult as you think."

"The worst possible outcome is death, but you've already prepared to die at any time, haven't you?"

Huo Baiwei lowered her head.

This time she said nothing else.

Just fell into endless silence.

Cen Xiu is actually quite right.

The worst possible outcome is death.

As for what happens after death, that is something she will worry about after she dies.

It's really unnecessary to worry about this now.

"Huo Baiwei, I said I would help you and I will definitely help you, but if you don't want to help yourself, just pretend I never said that."

"Have you thought it through?"

Huo Baiwei's fingers subconsciously clenched tightly into her palms.

Cen Xiu was looking at her while he was talking, and at the same time he was looking at the hand he had stretched out.

Huo Baiwei knew that Cen Xiu said this to signal her to put her hand on it.

It was telling her not to reject his unsolicited kindness and help.

In the end, Huo Baiwei reached out and grabbed Cen Xiu's wrist.

With his strength he stood up.

"Okay, thank you very much."

In the moonlight, she stood next to Cen Xiu.

The back figure was stretched extremely long in an instant.

A faint smile appeared on Cen Xiu's lips, and Huo Baiwei's face was reflected in his pupils.

She had a long scar on her face, and her hair was messy and sticky to her face.

There was still some blood on his face that had not yet dried.

But this was the Huo Baiwei he knew.

Huo Baiwei looked at Cen Xiu's face.

He never shows his true face.

Like her, he likes to wear a mask.

Until this moment, she still didn't know what the real Cen Xiu looked like.

"You said, if I want revenge, you can help me, Cen Xiu, how can you help me?"

Without any hesitation, Huo Baiwei got straight to the point the moment she grabbed his hand and stood up.

Cen Xiu looked at her. The person with ruthlessness in her eyes was the Huo Baiwei he knew.

The coward before is not like that.

He looked at her with a smile, "Since I said I would help you, I will not break my promise, and I will not use you to make fun of you when I am bored."

He spoke every word clearly, and the sound of his words echoed loudly in the silent night.

When the breeze blew over, Cen Xiu looked into Huo Baiwei's eyes and asked the question even though he knew the answer.

"So who do you want revenge on?"

Huo Baiwei's ten fingers were tightly trapped in her palm.

She spoke each word slowly, almost gritting her teeth.

"Of course it's Huo Zhenting!"

When she pronounced this name, it was filled with deep hatred, as if she wanted to tear the other person into pieces.

Cen Xiu was stunned for a long moment, as if he had not expected the other party's answer to be this.

He looked at Huo Baiwei for a long while, and suddenly laughed.

"I thought you wanted to seek revenge on Huo Ning."

"After all, it was she who made you lose everything. It was she who made you what you are now. It was she who destroyed your career. All your misfortunes seem to be caused by her."

"Now that you say the person you want to take revenge on is Huo Zhenting, I am really surprised."

Huo Ning?

Is it because of Huo Ning that she became like this?

After hearing this name, Huo Baiwei suddenly laughed.

But there was a hint of sadness and desolation in her smile.

"In fact, I used to be just like you. I hated Huo Ning immensely. I also always thought that my misfortune was caused by her. But without a cause, how can there be an effect?"

When she first faced Huo Ning, she took advantage of him countless times, allowing Huo Ning to protect her from many disasters that Huo Ning should not have to bear.

It was also she who lured Huo Ning towards the abyss step by step.

If it wasn't for some coincidence, the other party would have turned misfortune into fortune and learned some mysterious skill.

I'm afraid Huo Ning has already turned into a pile of bones by now.

No, I'm afraid her ashes have been wasted.

She had shown no mercy when she attacked Huo Ning before, and now that the other party was fighting back, naturally, she would not leave any room for her.

In this world, cause and effect are cyclical, and retribution is inevitable. It is just like this.

"Huo Ning doesn't owe me anything. I really hated her in the past. I wanted to tear her into pieces, skin her, pull out her tendons, and feed her flesh and blood to dogs."

"I naively thought that my life would get better as long as Huo Ning disappeared."

She had always believed that all her misfortunes were caused by Huo Ning.

But is her misfortune really because of Huo Ning?

Tears flowed from Huo Baiwei's eyes.

She felt pitiful.

It was not until now that she realized who her enemy was, but she had known it in her previous life!

"I have become what I am today because of my own fault, but it is also all thanks to Huo Zhenting!"

In her previous life, she was clearly about to get the trophy that belonged to her.

Even if she didn't return to the Huo family, even if she didn't have the status of a rich lady, she had carved out a path for herself through her own efforts and her own halo.

But she died on the way to welcome flowers and applause.
