After entering the bathroom, Xi Ran first turned down the volume.
Then answer the microphone, speaking softly and quietly:
"Hello?"
"It's me, Wind Chime."
A familiar voice came from the phone, and Xi Ran's hand trembled slightly.
"Wind Chime, you..."
Currently, almost all signals in the tomb ruins are cut off; the only usable frequency band is that of the Special Operations Unit.
Fengling also called her using the number from the Bai family's special operations unit.
This means that...
"Thanks to your talisman, I was captured by the Bai family."
The wind chimes emitted a cold, indifferent sound.
His purpose in calling Xi Ran was simply to convince the Bai family that he carried a protective talisman.
This was to lay the groundwork for his later escape.
Xi Ran felt a lump in her throat, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"I'm sorry... Wind Chime, yes, I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have lied to you..."
As soon as she finished speaking, she burst into tears, squatted down on the ground, and tremblingly pressed the phone to her ear.
The wind chime heard her crying and sneered:
"I've already done what I should apologize for, so there's no need to say sorry."
"As for the tears of repentance, save them for when you die."
Those two sentences pierced her heart like knives.
My hand, which was clutching my heart, was trembling.
Those two sentences were like two hands of a wind chime, gripping her neck.
She could only open her mouth, tears streaming down her face, unable to utter a single word.
Feeling nauseous...
I feel nauseous for no reason!
How disgusting...
I find his two sentences disgusting.
I find it disgusting how despicable I am, spewing lies all the time.
I find this disgusting.
This world is disgusting...
The feeling of suffocation made her forget how to breathe.
"Cough cough..."
Suddenly, he started coughing violently.
A moment later, still sobbing, she said in a trembling voice:
"Wind chime... if you can run, then run... that talisman..."
He seemed to run out of breath halfway through his sentence, took a deep breath, and sobbed twice:
"That talisman is a safety charm that my mother left me. It's a bomb, but I didn't give it to you."
Feng Ling was taken aback by what she heard and narrowed her eyes.
I glanced around at the people around me, feeling a little worried that they might hear me too.
But it seems that's not the case.
Because Xi Ran's phone was designed to prevent eavesdropping before she entered the Ruo family's home, it was kept secret.
Even if the Bai family wanted to obtain the voice recordings, it would take them some time.
However, they were not in a hurry.
Because in their eyes, the wind chimes are doomed today.
He was handcuffed with special handcuffs for spirit masters, and outside, the Spirit Pivot Pavilion and Bai Qiling were watching him.
How do we escape?
The wind chime was silent for a moment, then said softly:
"What about the original one?"
"That... I threw it away... Don't worry, trust me... please..."
She said, crying.
"Okay, I understand. That's settled then."
"Wait a minute, the wind chimes..."
She called out to him, her voice choked with emotion.
There was one more thing she wanted to say, otherwise, she was afraid she would never have the chance again.
"I like you... wind chimes."
After saying this, she briefly stopped crying, tears still streaming down her face, took a deep breath, and said with a smile:
"I've always liked you, from the first moment I saw you."
After saying that, she cried again:
"I know I'm not worthy, and I can't, but I... I can't help it. I'm sorry... I'm so sorry, really, I'm sorry."
Then, without waiting for Fengling's reply, he hung up the phone.
No answer is needed anymore...
If Fengling escapes now, the Bai family, unaware of the situation, will press the detonation button.
Then it will all end.
As if all strength had been lost, the phone in his hand slammed to the ground with a loud thud.
Ahhhhhh—
Painful cries echoed through the deserted building.
Thump—
He suddenly slammed his head against the wall.
I hope to alleviate my pain in this way.
But it was no use; physical and mental pain were completely separate.
So she curled up on the ground in anguish, sobbing as she closed her eyes.
She wanted to take a nap; she felt so tired.
Deceiving is exhausting.
Loving someone can be exhausting.
Being an obedient daughter is exhausting.
I'm sorry, Chu Sheng, I deceived you.
I'm sorry, Wind Chime, for taking the liberty of liking you.
I'm sorry, Dad, I didn't listen to you. I hope you... are safe and sound.
This was her choice.
The only way she could think of to at least stop Fengling from hating her was...
The only way to stop Fengling from seeking revenge on her father.
Yes, that's the only way to free myself.
She'd had enough of living a life filled with lies.
In my next life, I wish to be a sincere person.
Love the most sincere people with the most sincere heart.
Then, she slowly closed her eyes; she wanted to sleep.
When you're asleep, you don't know anything.
I hope to have dreams.
A beautiful dream that can come true...
Even dreams are nothing more than dazzling fireworks overhead.
It's impossible to catch.
It will only linger for a moment in the endless night, fleeting and ephemeral.
But that fleeting moment of blossoming, that brief moment of fantasy, is also true happiness...
......
First floor:
When Lei Yan was urinating, she heard a series of wailing cries coming down from above through the pipe.
