That night
Bai Qianmo did not sleep well in the hospital.
That familiar feeling returned; she felt her body traveling through a dark tunnel, and after a long time, a white light appeared before her eyes.
Then she found herself in a small villa.
The furniture and decorations are still in the style of the Republic of China era, simple and elegant, and vaguely familiar.
Her body...
Using "a wisp of a ghost" seems more fitting.
She was still floating in mid-air. The furnishings in the house were very clean, and it was clear that the owner of the house was a person who paid great attention to life.
As she looked around curiously, a voice came from the study.
"How did you find this place?" a clear, cold female voice asked.
The voice was flat, conveying a sense of detachment.
However, she was startled when she heard the voice.
Why does this voice sound so much like hers?
Immediately afterwards, a deep male voice came from the study.
"If I want to, I can find you even if you go to the ends of the earth. Now it seems you are quite good."
Bai Qianmo wanted to go to the study to take a look, but before the thought even crossed her mind, she was pulled into the study by a powerful suction force.
The study is not large, about 20 square meters. On the east side, there is a row of bookshelves and a mahogany desk, on which is a landscape painting with ink still wet.
It seems to be snowing outside; all I can see is a vast expanse of white, somewhat resembling the scene depicted in the painting.
Her gaze inadvertently swept over a table, and her eyes were drawn to a few small flowers on the corner of the table.
This is not...
It was Xu Jin'en's small villa in the capital, but now it was fully furnished, clean and tidy, making it hard to associate with the dilapidated old building.
But she remembered that table; it was engraved with Buddhist sacred flowers.
Bai Qianmo's heart skipped a beat, and she looked away from the table at the man and woman standing by the window.
Yes, they were standing by the window with their backs to her, so she couldn't see their faces clearly.
The woman wore a white short-sleeved shirt and a light purple long skirt. Her long hair was casually draped over her back. She was tall and slender.
Just by looking at her back, Bai Qianmo knew who she was.
The man standing beside her wore a dark green military overcoat and a red-brimmed military cap. He looked as upright as a pine tree, exuding an imposing and dignified aura.
The woman replied coldly, "You didn't come here just to catch up with old friends, did you?"
“Xu Changchong is not coming back. He went to Kunlun to find Qi Ding. Some time ago, news came from there that a group of soldiers he led was caught in an avalanche, and the entire company was killed. I’m afraid he is also in grave danger.”
The woman remained silent for a long time before replying calmly, "He will come back. No matter how long it takes, I will wait for him to return."
“Xu Jin’en, don’t be foolish. So much time has passed and he hasn’t sent a single message back. It’s basically confirmed that he and his men have perished together. The entire capital is about to change drastically. There’s war raging everywhere outside. You’re a woman, and no matter how capable you are, you still need someone to protect you. So come with me. I promise I will be devoted to you and never let you down.”
The woman slowly turned around and looked up at the man in front of her.
"Whether he lives or dies, I will not marry you, so give up on that idea."
The man clenched his fists, his face filled with indignation and resentment.
"Don't forget, you are my fiancée, Yin Heng. I have the right to make you fulfill the obligations of a fiancée."
Xu Jin'en scoffed lightly, her expression completely indifferent.
"I have severed all ties with the Xu family. From now on, the fourth young lady of the Xu family is dead. If you want to find your fiancée, go to the Xu family cemetery in Shanghai."
The man slowly turned around, a cold glint shooting from his sinister eyes.
At this moment, Bai Qianmo finally saw the man's face clearly.
This was an extremely handsome face with deep-set eyes and strong features. His dark gaze was coldly fixed on Xu Jin'en.
"Although I dote on you, it doesn't mean I can't get you through other means, Jin'en. If you insist on being so aggressive, I will do anything to get you."
Upon hearing these words, Bai Qianmo glanced at the man with some disdain.
Although he's good-looking, the moment he opens his mouth, you feel like punching him.
No wonder Xu Jin'en looks down on him. Xu Jin'en isn't stupid. Why would she put up with a pretentious person?
Xu Jin'en chuckled twice, but a sharp glint appeared in her clear eyes.
"Yin Heng, you are destined to live in Xu Changchong's shadow for the rest of your life. You are no match for him when it comes to fighting for territory, and you are even less of a match for her when it comes to women."
Upon hearing Xu Jin'en's nonchalant sarcasm, Bai Qianmo couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
To slay a snake, cut its vital point; to strike directly at its heart.
Seeing Yin Heng's face, which was both angry and unpredictable, Bai Qianmo chuckled coldly.
This is the price of being pretentious, bro. Do you really think being a domineering CEO is so easy? Do you really think all the female leads are naive and innocent?
Seeing that the man in front of her was almost choked by her words, Xu Jin'en smiled faintly on her beautiful face.
"Even if Xu Changchong's fate is now unknown, his woman will never look at you. So, Commander Yin, please go back to where you came from. Don't bother seeing me out!"
After saying that, Xu Jin'en turned around and prepared to leave the study.
A hint of resentment flashed in Yin Heng's eyes as he stared intently at Xu Jin'en's departing figure.
"If I, Yin Heng, cannot have it, I would rather destroy it than let someone else have it."
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Heng took a stone out of the pocket of his military overcoat.
Under the sunlight, the stone shone like a black mirror, emitting a dazzling light.
Upon seeing the stone, Bai Qianmo felt a lump in her throat.
Black Mirror Stone?
Xu Jin'en seemed to sense something was wrong and suddenly turned around, a blinding silver light shooting straight into her eyes.
*
Bai Qianmo suddenly opened her eyes and gasped for breath.
Looking around, An An breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was still in the hospital room.
It was just a dream.
But why does she keep dreaming about Xu Jin'en's past?
Could she have some connection with Xu Jin'en?
And that black mirror stone, why would Yin Heng use it against Xu Jin'en? Could it be...?
Is Xu Jin'en also a person with superpowers?
How could there be such a coincidence in the world?
She is a superhuman, as is Xu Jin'en, and she keeps dreaming about Xu Jin'en.
Based on the conversation between Xu Jin'en and Yin Heng in the dream, it can be confirmed that Xu Jin'en and Xu Changchong are lovers.
Yin Heng said that Xu Changchong went to Kunlun to look for Qi Ding. Qi Ding?
She seemed to have heard that name somewhere before.
And then there's Yin Heng; she needs to investigate his identity as soon as possible.
