C391 (1/2)

Wang Shilin's hands trembled in fright at the sudden voice. She took a deep breath and slowly turned around.

The man was aiming a gun at himself with one hand and covering his injured shoulder with the other. He really didn't understand what kind of bad luck he had gotten himself into. Curiosity really killed the cat. If he didn't see what had happened, this wouldn't have happened.

This was the first time that Wang Shilin had seen this man's face from the front. When she was wiping her wounds earlier, as he had her eyes closed, she didn't pay much attention to him.

The man was tall and slender, with firm muscles. His facial features were fine and distinct, and he had a straight nose. His sword-like eyebrows were hidden in his bangs, and beneath them was a pair of slender peach shaped eyes.

”Did you see it clearly?” the man asked, narrowing his dangerous eyes.

Wang Shilin nodded mechanically. At this moment, she didn't know how to answer this man's question other than nodding.

”If you see it clearly, I'll send you on your way!”

Hearing that, Wang Shilin looked like a frightened rabbit. Her eyes were wide open as she asked in a trembling voice, ”Why? I saved you, and you still want to kill me? ”

”Why do you need to kill me?!” The man smirked and said, ”Do you have any last words?”

”Yes!”

”Speak!”

”I died unjustly!”

The man used his forefinger to lightly twist the trigger, examining the petite woman in front of him with a smile that didn't seem like a smile. He didn't expect that this woman wasn't crying like the other women, and was instead kneeling down and begging for mercy.

God knows how scared Wang Shilin was. She dug her nails into the meat and felt an excruciating pain. Her palms were already covered in sweat, and her heart was beating at a rate that exceeded the limits of what she could bear. Even if she had the courage to conceal herself endlessly, in this moment of life and death, anyone would still be afraid.

At this moment, she regretted so much that she wanted to strangle herself to death. She secretly despised her overflowing sympathy.

He finally understood what it meant to be able to survive even if one had done something wrong in the heavens. It meant that one had to die if they had done something wrong.

If he had known earlier that saving this heartless and evil man would cause him to lose his life, he would have stood by and let him fend for himself!

Other than regret, there was only regret!

”Very well, I'll send you on your way now!” The man turned the trigger again, his lips curving into a smile. ”Bang …”

”Ah …” Wang Shilin closed her eyes and screamed, but she did not feel the expected pain. She hurriedly opened her eyes and saw the man revealing an evil smile as he looked with interest at this panicked woman.

The gunshot just now was an imitation of someone else. Who would have thought that this petite woman was trembling in fear? She was only pretending to be calm before.

Women are all hypocrites! ” The man said sarcastically as he used the muzzle of his gun to prop up Wang Shilin's chin. I thought you really weren't afraid of death, but it was all an act. Do you think I should smack you through the head or not? ” The man slowly lowered the gun from her head to her left chest.

”Dirty!” Wang Shilin cursed in a low voice as she glared at the man with extreme disgust.

The man smiled and said, ”But you did very well today, so I plan to let you go. I hope to meet you again next time!” With that, the man disappeared from the window like a ghost with a few leaps.

Looking at the man leaving, Wang Shilin took a few deep breaths. What she had encountered tonight was too dangerous. She regretted meddling in her business.

At night, Wang Shilin slept unstably, her nightmares pestering her.

In the dream, a man covered in blood chased after her with a gun, forcing her to a dead end like last night.

The man calmly approached her step by step. Her vision remained blurry in the dream. Wang Shilin subconsciously rubbed her eyes, and gradually, she could clearly see the man's face.

It was none other than the man in black who was shot in the middle last night!

With a ferocious expression, the man stretched out his bloodied hands to grab onto Wang Shilin's neck and pulled her feet off the ground along the wall. A pair of bottomless eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty coldness.

The air seemed to become thinner, and the consciousness in his brain began to blur...

”Cough, cough, cough …” The rapid breathing woke Wang Shilin from her nightmare. Her fingers tightly gripped the quilt as she panted heavily. The nightmare just now was both terrifying and real!

Wang Shilin subconsciously touched her neck and wiped the sweat from her forehead. She got down from the bed, poured herself a cup of water, and downed it in one gulp.

The resentful eyes in her dream echoed in her mind time and time again, causing her to feel inexplicably fearful and apprehensive.

Ye Zichen sat on the bed and opened his phone. It showed that it was 1: 30 in the morning.

When the first light of dawn shone through the windows, the quiet district welcomed a fresh summer morning.
