It's 11:50.
"You, I'm hungry." I tugged at You's sleeve.
"Should I order room service?"
I snuggled closer to You and said, "I'll go buy it. I can't always let you serve me. I'll do my part today."
You chuckled, "Why is this little lazybones so conscientious today?"
I scoffed, "When have I ever been unenlightened? And how am I a lazybones!"
"Isn't that right?" You teased with a smile, then planted another kiss on my forehead.
"Go if you want, but be careful."
"Okay." I nodded. "Don't worry, I'm fine."
I jumped out of bed nimbly and put on my coat.
11:53.
I walked all the way to the elevator before taking out the mirror that Wu had given me. After turning into a blind spot of the surveillance cameras, I entered the mirror.
When I came in, I was startled. What appeared in front of me was the room that You and I shared.
I stood right in front of You, but You couldn't see me.
I deliberately checked the time.
11:55.
Five minutes felt incredibly long as I watched You lying alone on the bed watching TV.
Minute by minute, the time finally reached twelve o'clock.
You's relaxed expression suddenly turned serious, as if she had sensed something.
The next second, Wu's figure appeared out of thin air in the room.
With a dark expression, he headed towards Wu Gong.
Wu Dodges, "You Yuan, we are on the same path."
You Buli's attack became even faster.
"Are you going to betray Nvxin? Don't you want the real Nvxin to come back?" You's attack speed suddenly slowed down.
Wu sneered, "It seems you have truly betrayed Nu Xin. I have no choice but to use my own methods to bring the real Nu Xin back."
You completely stopped attacking Wu and slowly said, "So you're allies."
Wu Qing nodded. "You Yuan, have you forgotten Nü Xin's target? Why haven't you made a move against Liu Lieyu? Have you forgotten?"
You had a deep, unfathomable gaze, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.
When You said, "So it was an alliance," I completely lost my strength. It turned out that all of this was real, and that You really was someone arranged by Nv Xin.
Did he already know I wasn't the real woman, and that it was all an act?
You glanced at Wu with a leisurely air, "Isn't the only way to bring Nv Xin back the one who kills Liu Lieyu? What other method could there be?"
Wu did not answer You's question, but instead asked, "Why not kill Liu Lieyu?"
You sneered, and the words she uttered were more cruel than I had ever seen before: "Does Liu Lieyu even need to be killed?"
"What do you mean?"
You slowly explained, "Just look at Liu Lieyu's mental state now, it's getting worse every day, and who knows when he might take his own life." A wicked light flashed in You's eyes.
"You're waiting for him to commit suicide?" Wu frowned. "How could Liu Lieyu take his own life? How could he bear to?"
You snorted softly, "Even if I'm reluctant, I'll kill Liu Lieyu when I'm done playing with him. What's the rush?"
"Really?" He had no doubt whatsoever.
"Yes." You nodded. "Liu Lieyu killed me and seized the throne that day. I finally managed to reincarnate, but Liu Lieyu has been humiliating me ever since. How can I accept this?!"
"I wish he were dead day and night!" You said, his eyes overflowing with hatred.
"Then why didn't you take the opportunity to kill Liu Lieyu that day?"
“I told you, I’ll make my move when I’m done playing.” You glanced at Wu. “Wouldn’t it be too easy for Liu Lieyu to die so easily? Hasn’t Liu Lieyu always been deeply in love with Nv Xin? I want him to see how Nv Xin loves me. I want him to suffer unbearable heartache and wish he were dead.”
I couldn't bear to listen to what they said after that.
I frantically searched for an exit in this mirror world, but when I finally came out, I was still in front of the elevator.
At this moment, I am completely exhausted, both physically and mentally.
My tears kept falling.
No, I can't stay here any longer.
My mind is filled with You's cruel words. It turns out that everything was just an act. You Yuan treated me like this just to make Liu Lieyu sad.
Am I just a rag doll that Yuugen uses to show off?
After leaving the hotel, I randomly chose a direction and flew away.
The flight speed was absolutely the fastest I've ever experienced, and I deliberately concealed my body odor.
To prevent You from finding me, the mortal realm is not an abyss; even if You wanted to find me, you wouldn't know where I am.
I wiped away the tears from my eyes.
The world is so vast, I didn't even know where to go for a moment.
There is no place for me here. I am nothing more than a trap meticulously set by Nv Xin.
My existence is solely for the purpose of causing Liu Lieyu's death.
I flew aimlessly through the air, and I don't know how long it lasted. I got a little tired and landed on the ground.
It just so happens to be a grove of trees. I wandered around aimlessly, wondering what to do next.
I really don't want to stay here anymore. Suddenly, I thought of a way to go back.
If Liu Lieyu dies, can I go back?
My head was spinning, and a bold idea came to me.
I'll go find Liu Lieyu. A smile tugged at the corner of my mouth.
I told him everything, either Liu Lieyu would kill himself to bring Nvxin back, or Liu Lieyu would kill me.
Either one is excellent.
I'm completely bored here; it's all fake!
With that in mind, I prepared to head to Guixu.
Suddenly, the forest became incredibly dark, with thick fog enveloping the entire area.
Had I encountered a spirit or monster? I was amazed.
Perfect timing, I'm in a bad mood right now, encountering this spirit will allow me to vent.
I stood still, waiting for the spirit to appear.
I waited for a while, and the temperature in the woods suddenly dropped even lower; even I felt cold.
It seems this spirit is quite powerful.
I silently encouraged myself and remained vigilant about the changes around me.
In the thick fog, a figure appeared, and the first thing I saw was a head of long, slightly wavy, sea-blue hair.
Blue hair? A person suddenly came to mind.
"Nu Xin, why are you here all alone?" A clear, cold voice came from the thick fog.
That sound...?
The Great Emperor of Fengdu?
The figure was fully revealed in front of me.
"The Emperor of Fengdu?!" I looked at the fair-skinned man in front of me who exuded a chilling aura.
The Emperor of Fengdu nodded slightly, his phoenix eyes scrutinizing me.
"Fengdu Emperor, what are you doing here?" I exclaimed in amazement. To run into the Emperor just by taking a stroll, my luck is off the charts!
"Just taking a stroll." The Emperor of Fengdu smiled slightly, yet his presence still sent a chill through people.
"Haha, me too." I laughed out loud. It's always nice to run into a handsome man. "What a coincidence. I thought he was a forest spirit."
"What a coincidence." The Emperor of Fengdu's voice was extremely cold and aloof.
"I'm leaving now. See you at Fengdu Emperor's place." I smiled and said goodbye to Fengdu Emperor, preparing to go to Guixu to either commit suicide with Liu Lieyu or go home.
