Chapter 356 - Soon (2/2)
It was merely the results of the meddling of a demon who had inflicted her with constant misfortunes. No one knew hell like her, especially when she had been born in it, raised in it, fought in it, and would someday rule in it. Nobody knew hell as she did but if Yan Mei was lucky before she died, she would get a taste.
”I know you're still shaken by what happened. I'm sure returning to the hospital so soon after your recent pain experience in it is enough ground to be shaky.” Lei Zhao sympathized unknowingly raiding her hackles with his good intentions.
”Yes, that” her voice had barely a trace of sarcasm, easily missed, ”I think that's just it.”
”I just want you to know you're strong yourself. You're capable of pulling through, give yourself time to adjust, and maybe take the day off?” He prompted his eyes shadowed with concern.
Yue Yan gritted her teeth, it was all she could do to stop herself from reacting irrationally ”I'll think about it”
”Give Yan Mei a chance, please” he added as an afterthought, his eyes riveted in hers
”You're right, I'm just shaken” she replied gently.
”See? The wasn't so hard,” Lei Zhao smiled triumphantly at her from across the table, her cheeks ached with the blinding smile she directed back at him.
In her mind, rage and anticipation warred but she quelled her mounting hunger with a curt promise. 'Soon'
Lei Zhao looked at his wristwatch again and smiled, ”I think it's time we went home.”
Yue Yan nodded and walked to her own desk to the side of the office and began tidying up. The mindlessness of the task gave her a chance to master her expression.
Her plans were unraveling but only because she couldn't hold back on the rage pounding in her. They cl.u.s.tered like sheep and offered friendly smiles hoping that would change anything, what they didn't know was that she was a being made entirely of hatred, anger, pain, and an unquenchable hunger.
The only thing that would satisfy her was fulfilling her plans, the only thing that could date her now was blood. This game was quickly losing its allure, there was no p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e to be found in manipulating fools. It was time to strike, to completely show her hand and revel in the destruction she was about to bring.
