Chapter 26 (1/2)

Xiao Tangqiu lay inside the coffin; before him was the pitch-black coffin lid and under him was the cold, red wedding dress. Hearing the faint sound of footsteps outside the door, he was so nervous that he almost couldn’t breathe. His pounding heart felt as if it would jump out of his chest.

Even though he knew that someone had died in this coffin previously, that the red wedding dress had been worn by a dead person not too long ago, compared to the threat outside the door, this was nothing.

Would the person outside the door discover them? Would that person find him?

He had no doubt and even understood clearly, that his current actions were akin to burying his head in the sand, but at this life or death juncture, he could only take a risk.

Creak

The door was pushed open.

Xiao Tangqiu’s heart suddenly sank, but he still tried to hold his breath. He covered his mouth with his hand and didn’t dare to make a sound.

Because he was so afraid, he could even feel that his five senses were much more acute. He could hear Tang Mianmian’s chaotic breathing from the wardrobe not too far away. Although Tang Mianmian tried his best to restrain his breathing, he was still breathing rather heavily because of intense fear. It sounded especially loud in the empty and silent room.

…… They were finished!

Xiao Tangqiu’s mind blanked out; he could feel the footsteps walking towards the wardrobe. Those footsteps were neither fast nor slow, but each step was like a blade of death. There was no doubt that those footsteps were the footsteps of death.

Tang Mianmian, who was in the wardrobe, had obviously heard the footsteps as well. His breathing grew heavier and heavier, and there seemed to be the sound of rustling and trembling.

This idiot! Why the hell was he shaking at a time like this? Xiao Tangqiu was extremely anxious and found that he was trembling all over as well. His hands were cold and bloodless because of his nervousness. He instinctively groped around the coffin, looking for something to make use of.

However, there was nothing in this coffin except for the red wedding dress beneath him. He felt around the slightly stiff red wedding dress for a long time. Gradually, his hands seemed to be stained with some sort of warm liquid that smelled of rust.

It was the smell of fresh blood.

Xiao Tangqiu was frightened out of his wits, and quickly removed his hands. But he soon discovered that there was blood flowing out from the red wedding dress beneath him That warm viscous liquid gradually spread, filling up every inch of the coffin bit by bit, slowly submerging his calf, knee, half of the body……

Xiao Tangqiu was terrified; sooner or later, the blood would fill that entire coffin and drown him!

When the blood started to soak his face, he finally raised his hand to push the coffin lid, but something even more frightening occurred – the coffin lid wouldn’t budge move. He was trapped inside the coffin!

He felt deep despair as he imagined the scene of him being drowned alive in a bloody coffin. However, at that moment, something strange happened!

His eyes suddenly lit up. Someone had opened the coffin lid!

Before Xiao Tangqiu could even breathe a sigh of relief, he was immediately overwhelmed by pure terror. The person outside the coffin was Lu Dadong.

Yun Jizhou stood beside the coffin, looking down at Xiao Tangqiu who laid inside the coffin. His eyes were pitch-black and deep, as heartless and cold as the abyss.

Xiao Tangqiu opened his mouth to say something but in the next second, he felt a stabbing pain in his chest!

He lowered his head slowly, only to find that Yun Jizhou had stabbed his hand into his chest and grasped that wildly-beating heart of his. With Yun Jizhou’s strength, all he had to do was use a little force to effortlessly crush his fragile heart.

It wasn’t until then that he discovered that he had somehow inexplicably put on the red wedding dress. The fresh blood sputtering out from his chest stained the wedding dress even more red, redder than the one worn by Fang Lan in her memory.

Was he going to die…….

Just like that?

Xiao Tangqiu raised his eyelids with difficulty and looked at Yun Jizhou who stood outside the coffin. It seemed that the BOSS didn’t want to let him die easily. He lowered his gaze, long eyelashes half falling as he stared deeply at Xiao Tangqiu, as though he intended to watch the life slowly fade out of him.

Due to excessive blood loss, the scene before Xiao Tangqiu started to turn fuzzy. He vaguely saw another person’s face through Yun Jizhou.

His lips moved faintly, and subconsciously he called out that person’s name, “……..Xinghe.”

“Meng Xinghe……”

This was probably the light that one sees before death……..

He actually saw Meng Xinghe…… his closest friend that had died seven years ago.
