It was late at night and the weather was chilly.

From time to time, the sounds of a clock ticking on the wall could be heard. They were stifling and depressing.

It was not known how much time had passed. Someone on the bed crooned and gradually opened her eyes.

A luxurious and unfamiliar room came into her view.

… Where was she?

Gu Shinian surveyed the surroundings in a daze.

She paused her eyes at something just after a few seconds.

In the dark room, on the sofa, in front of the floor-to-ceiling curtains, a man with a slim and slender figure was sitting there gracefully.

When their eyes met, Gu Shinian’s dazed expression gradually turned into shock and trepidation.

“It’s… It’s you!”

She screamed and sat up frantically.

Qin Muchen!

It was actually Qin Muchen!

The thin lips of the man on the sofa curled upwards. Like a shattered crystal, his smile was stunning but cruel. “Gu Shinian, it’s been a long time since we met.”

Yes.

It had been a long time!

They had not seen each other for three years!

Since that incident, they had not seen each other!

Suddenly, Gu Shinian felt a chill down her spine. Bit by bit, the colors on her face drained and her forehead broke out in delicate beads of cold sweat.

She could hear heavy footsteps approaching her.

A dark shadow shrouded her. Qin Muchen had walked to the side of the bed, bent down and leaned over her.

His pair of deep and profound eyes faintly exuded a sinister and chilling aura. When his lips moved, his voice was even colder than moonlight.

“Where is my child?”

Three years ago, she had suddenly disappeared when she was pregnant.
