Soul Awakening
"Xiao Heng, you are too cowardly... Give me your body. I will take control of it."
Xiao Heng felt a voice that didn't belong to him coming into his mind. The voice was hoarse and deep, yet he could hear it so clearly.
"Who are you?"
"Don't you remember everything now? I am Ye Wanqing's number one beast husband—Ye Yan. I transmigrated from the apocalypse. Give me this body, and I can make you the richest man in the world, and even get everything."
Ye Yan began to seduce him.
Xiao Heng shook his head: "No, I don't want to. If I give you my body, you will definitely hurt Ye Wanqing. I won't allow anyone to hurt her."
"Hehe, I didn't realize you were such a romantic. Let me show you what Ye Wanqing is doing."
After speaking, Ye Yan used his spiritual power to display a scene in front of Xiao Heng.
Night Flame's true form is a snake, and it excels at creating illusions.
Xiao Heng saw Ye Wanqing embracing Gu Mohan, and then hugging Xue Mubai...
"So what? Ye Wanqing is just a promiscuous woman. She doesn't like you at all. She's a slut. It's not worth it for a woman like that."
Ye Yan continued to tempt him.
"What...this..." Xiao Heng suddenly felt a splitting headache, his whole body began to convulse, and he felt as if his brain was about to be torn apart. Finally, he fainted from the pain.
When Xiao Heng woke up again, his black eyes had turned dark red.
"Hehe, great, I've finally taken control of this body. This body is mine now. Ye Wanqing, I'll make you pay for your crimes in blood."
At this point, a glint flashed in Xiao Heng's eyes, and a snake-shaped mark appeared on his forehead, faintly visible.
...
After Xue Mubai escorted Ye Wanqing back to school, Ye Wanqing received a message from her pager.
It was sent by Xiao Heng.
Speaking of which, she hadn't seen Xiao Heng for a long time, and he hadn't contacted her either. Was something wrong this time?
After she returned to school, she found a phone booth and called him.
Xiao Heng's voice came from the other end, "Wanqing, I miss you. Can we have dinner together tonight?"
"Eat? Is there something you need?"
"Yes, I have something very important to do. You must come. Guohua International Hotel."
Ye Wanqing was about to refuse when the other end of the phone hung up.
Evening. The city lights are just coming on.
Ye Wanqing, dressed in a light blue dress, went to the banquet as agreed.
As it happened, Gu Mohan was also on a mission nearby. When he saw her enter a hotel, he couldn't help but frown.
What was Ye Wanqing doing? Curiosity drove him to follow her.
After arriving at the reserved private room.
Xiao Heng had been waiting here for quite some time. He was wearing a well-tailored black suit with a white shirt underneath and a neat blue tie at the collar. For some reason, when Ye Wanqing saw Xiao Heng, she felt that he seemed different from before.
Her overall demeanor has changed somewhat, but it's hard to pinpoint exactly what that change is.
When Xiao Heng saw Ye Wanqing push open the door and enter, a hint of amazement flashed in his eyes. He quickly stood up and gentlemanly pulled out a chair for her.
"Wanqing, you look beautiful today," Xiao Heng said with a smile, his voice deep and gentle.
Ye Wanqing's cheeks flushed slightly as she softly replied, "Thank you, you're handsome too."
The two sat facing each other in the soft, warm lighting of the private room. The table was laden with exquisite dishes.
"How have you been lately?" Ye Wanqing asked casually.
"I'm alright, a bit busy. How about you? I saw in the newspaper that your garment factory caught fire. Do you need any help?" Xiao Heng had a gentle smile on his face, looking very kind.
"Is this why you asked me to dinner?" Ye Wanqing was still somewhat touched.
"Yes, I care about you, I'm afraid you might do something rash."
"I'm fine. Don't worry."
Xiao Heng poured her a glass of red wine. "Try it. This is from a winery abroad. I saved it especially for you."
"Thanks."
Ye Wanqing picked up a glass of red wine, took a small sip, and Xiao Heng's eyes narrowed slightly when he saw her drink it.
"Wanqing, do you like me or not?"
"Hmm? Didn't I already tell you last time?" Ye Wanqing put down her wine glass.
She knew Xiao Heng would bring it up again.
"But I'm not reconciled. I still love you, and I want to be with you."
At this point, Xiao Heng reached out and placed her hand in his palm.
Just as Ye Wanqing was about to refuse, she suddenly felt dizzy. Her vision began to blur, and the wine glass in her hand slipped from her grasp and shattered on the ground with a "crash," scattering shards everywhere.
She felt dizzy and disoriented. In the last moment before losing consciousness, she saw the gentle smile on Xiao Heng's face disappear, replaced by a cold indifference that felt unfamiliar to her.
She completely fainted.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Wanqing slowly woke up. Her head felt as if it had been struck by a heavy hammer, throbbing with pain. She tried to open her eyes, but found everything in complete darkness.
As her vision gradually returned, she was horrified to find herself in an abandoned factory. The air was thick with the acrid smell of rust and decay, weeds grew all around, and the paint on the walls was peeling off in patches, revealing rusty steel bars underneath.
She tried to move, but found herself tightly bound to a thick pillar, her hands tied behind her back, the ropes tightening painfully around her wrists. She struggled desperately, trying to break free of the ropes, but all her efforts were in vain.
"Xiao Heng! Xiao Heng, where are you?" Ye Wanqing shouted hoarsely, her voice echoing in the empty factory, but there was no response. Her heart was filled with fear and confusion; she couldn't understand why her once beautiful dinner had turned into this. Had she been kidnapped? And who had kidnapped her?
Just as she was in despair, footsteps suddenly came from a corner of the factory. The footsteps grew louder and clearer as they approached, and her heart began to race as she stared intently in the direction the sound was coming from.
Finally, a figure slowly emerged from the darkness. Ye Wanqing looked closely and saw that it was Xiao Heng. His eyes were cold and cruel, and a mocking smile played on his lips.
"Xiao Heng, did you kidnap me? Why did you do this? What grudge do we have?" Ye Wanqing asked angrily.
Xiao Heng slowly walked up to her, squatted down, gently lifted her chin with his fingers, and said coldly, "Ye Wanqing, guess who I am?"
As he finished speaking, the snake-shaped mark on his forehead flashed, and his dark eyes turned into red vertical pupils.
At that moment, Ye Wanqing was stunned. "You are—Ye Yan?"
As she suspected, Xiao Heng was indeed Ye Yan who had transmigrated!
She was too careless...
"Not bad, you still remember me, Ye Wanqing. I hate you. In my previous life, you tormented me to the point of near death. Now, I will make you pay the price."
Xiao Heng sneered, stood up, pulled a dagger from his pocket, and brandished it under the light, the blade gleaming coldly. "Ye Wanqing. Today is your end."
As he spoke, he slowly raised the dagger and stabbed it towards Ye Wanqing's chest...
