Chapter 620 - This Night (1/2)

Bai Luoyin's motive… was that she wanted her dead.

The light suddenly went out, and the entire house darkened. What this darkness meant to others, she did not know; but for her now, it meant safety… the safety of hiding in the dark.

She did not know how long she was sitting there for and how long she maintained that posture for, but it was long enough until she was going to break down. She did not dare to move at all and did not dare to breathe loudly. She could only squeeze herself in this corner which was the size of a palm.

The woman outside bathed for a while and did facial at other moments. Her entire table was filled with different kinds of skincare products, and there was also a faint smell of roses. She thought to herself: Bai Luoyin must have taken a petal bath. Bai Luoyin had always loved doing that, and she loved to enjoy. Whatever she ate—whatever she wore, they must be the best.

As for Xia Ruoxin herself, she did not want to bathe in any petal bath or some sort. All she wanted was to have a hot shower, a bowl of hot soup, and another bowl of noodles to eat. Also, a cup of water to drink.

”You're back,” exclaimed Bai Luoyin in surprise. She went forward to welcome the person.

Xia Ruoxin forced open her tired eyes and peeped through the gap. She could only see a pair of white woman legs, and in front of those was a man's.

There was a hint of lovey-dovey feeling in the air as though it was the sickening scent of sweetness. She vaguely heard the noise of two people kissing, and she was right. The man carried the woman, and while her voice could be heard, she was not standing on the floor. Then, the image of a man and woman hugging each other could be seen in the mirror at the cupboard.

Xia Ruoxin turned away, and her nose twitched while tears welled up in her eyes.

She knew that they were married. She also knew that it was impossible for a couple to just sleep in the same bed and talk throughout the night. Just that, when this raw image was presented to her—right in front of her face, all her perseverance before turned into a joke instantly.

Not long after, the whole house was filled with the sounds of a man and woman making love.

The man's panting and the girl's m.o.a.ns became a song that would make one's cheeks burn in embarrassment and one's heart beat furiously. Along with the creaking of the bed from time to time, one could guess how intense it was outside.

Until a very long while later, the sound finally died down and was replaced by the sound of water in the bathroom.

”Yi…” yelled Bai Luoyin, but the man was too tired to even open his eyes.

”Yi…” She called again, but there was still no response from the man. He had fallen asleep—deep sleep.

'Ka!' The drawer seemed to be open. Xia Ruoxin carefully stuck her face to the side of the fireplace and watched through the gap. This time, she could see everything that was going on outside. Even though the light was dim, but the woman's every move was noted by Xia Ruoxin.

The drawer was opened, and Bai Luoyin took out a box of something from the inside.

There was another sound like something had just rung.

Bai Luoyin stopped in her motion, and her gaze landed on the fireplace.

Xia Ruoxin was frightened, and she hurriedly covered her mouth in shock. She did not even dare to breathe.

After looking on for quite some time, she took back her gaze. Perhaps she was thinking too much, or there must be a rat. She would call someone to buy rat poison to kill the rats the next day; they were all disgusting, and they deserved to die.
