263 Its Da Xia (2/2)

Before Liling could reply, her phone beeped. It was a new message; Her brows creased and she immediately clicked on it.

''Liling dear,

Hope you liked my gift to you? Just a few inches more and you would have been grounded under that heavy metal. This is just a warning to steer clear of Liu Wei; the next won't be so easy. ''

Liling stood frozen at a spot as she read the message over and over again. Xin Yong who had not heard a reply to all her rant, turned around to see someone staring mindlessly at her phone.

''Liling, what's that? ''

Liling blinked when she heard her, she quickly came to sit on the bed.

''It's Da Xia. ''

''Who's Da Xia? And what did she do? ''

Liling looked very scared, sweat beads forming on her forehead.

''Da Xia, the one Liu Wei was to marry, you remember her? The one I told you about.''

Xin Yong nodded after a moment.

''Yes, I remember now. What did she do? ''

''She was the one that caused the lights to fall! ''

''How? ''

Xin Yong asked looking perplexed.

''See…''

Liling gave her the phone, covering her mouth as fear washed through her body. She remembered how startled she was when the lights fell. How close each piece of glass was to her skin; it was a miracle that she escaped unhurt.

''Oh my goodness! ''

Xin Yong covered her mouth, her eyes opened in shock.

''You have to tell Liu Wei ASAP! This woman… this woman is evil! ''

Liling could not reply. She knew Da Xia detested her but to think she would go to the extent of trying to kill her. Liling was extremely scared.

''Have you met her before? ''

''Yes, she met me at the cafeteria, where she asked me to leave Liu Wei and offered me money. ''

''That woman is crazy! God, to threaten your life because of a man, that woman can do anything! ''

''Yes, I'll tell Liu Wei when he gets back. ''

Liling did not want to call Liu Wei to avoid him being worried or even rushing back home immediately. She would tell him when he got home.

They discussed other things before Xin Yong left. Liling wanted to accompany her home but with the paparazzi everywhere, she did not want to be trampled to death.

…

''I thought you said she would die? Why the change of plan? ''

Yan Ran cursed angrily. She was present at the theatre that night. Her main reason for going was to watch how Liling would be crushed under the heavy metal but to her disappointment, it fell meters away from her, thus she escaped unhurt.

She had anticipated her death, thinking that everything would end that night, who would have thought that not even a cut would happen to her.
