Chapter 868 - Does It Look Like You? (1/2)
Xia Yixuan only recently recalled Xia Ruoxin’s existence. Of course, she was not worried if Xia Ruoxin would die in that apartment. That woman was very strong and would not die no matter what. Even if she went there, she would probably be half-alive. Forget it, she should still send her on her way. The previous time, she did not drown to her death. This time, she must kill her; when she entered the shark’s stomach, even the navy could not find a single bone of hers.
She did her makeup in front of the mirror and posed a few times. Since young, that woman was just a green leaf used to complement her. Now that the flower had bloomed, she did not need the green leaf anymore; and the green leaf was now blocking her way.
As for the green leaf blocking the way, she only had one plan for her—break it off.
When no one was around, she walked to her apartment door and took her keys to open it. In the end—once she put her hand on the doorknob, the door opened.
She could not help but be taken aback, and she had unspeakable anxiety.
Bang! She closed the door and shut herself inside. At this time, her heart was beating irregularly. She felt around and extended her hand to turn on the light.
However, there was no one inside.
There was no one on the couch, no one on the floor, no one in the washroom… no one in the kitchen. She had searched everywhere, but there was no one at all.
Weakly, she collapsed onto the couch and was wondering why the person just disappeared. Could a person without legs just disappear for no reason? Even if she wanted to go out, she could only crawl. Indeed, she had guessed it right—Xia Ruoxin crawled her way out.
No, she could not let that woman live. She must not let Xia Ruoxin stay alive. If she said anything, she would be finished. Also, she regretted it very much. Why did she not directly throw her into the sea and made this mess? Now, she had to live in fear, and she was scared for a few days and could not energize herself. She just kept staring at Chu Lui’s surroundings as she was petrified that that woman would suddenly appear.
Until one day—when the helper in the house was keeping the newspapers, she then saw an article from a few days ago. The article reported that a woman was run over by a car until her face was unrecognizable, legs fractured. Up till now, no one had claimed the corpse.
In the newspaper, there was a blurred picture. It looked like Xia Ruoxin; her hair and height really looked like her.
Suddenly, she threw the paper away. Now, it seemed like she could really live her life without a worry.
It was good that she died. Good that she died.
“Yixuan, what are you looking at?” When Xia Mingzheng came down from the stairs, he saw Xia Yixuan in a daze and having a weird expression so he asked curiously.
“Nothing, Daddy.” Xia Yixuan ran over and hugged Xia Mingzheng’s arm. She whined, “Daddy, I’m going to the hospital later to see Auntie Song. Are you going to come, too?”
She needed to gain brownie points in front of the Chu family.
Even though she did bad things in the past, people did say that one could turn over a new leaf.
“But…” Xia Mingzheng glanced upstairs. “Your mother is alone upstairs. I’ll be worried.”
Mother? What mother?
Xia Yixuan pouted. She had long said before that Shen Yijun was not her mother. Her mother had died long ago, but she still remembered her identity and the things she needed to do. At the very least, she had to control her temper.
“Daddy, don’t worry.” Xia Yixuan pulled Xia Mingzheng and walked outside.
“The nanny and the helpers are still home. She’s an adult already; she won’t get lost. Besides, we’ll come back in a while. Also, Daddy, you haven’t seen Uncle Chu in a long time. Such a big thing happened in the Chu family; you should go and comfort him no matter what.
