Chapter 18
“You said you saw it? How did you see it?” Yuan Zhong couldn’t hold back his curiosity, and he felt that these words were shocking and unbelievable.
Liang Jing squatted on the ground, his entire being seeming like it was about to collapse. He knew that he hadn’t dreamed at all, but had instead been reborn!
He had just recovered from the pain of death and returned to the time before he died.
How could he not break down?
He crazily shook his head, and his mind was a mess. “I don’t know, I don’t know, don’t ask anymore!”
Noticing that everyone appeared to be dissatisfied with this answer and was planning to bring up something else, Xiao Chen immediately came forward. He said, “Let’s call the police first so they can handle this matter. In regards to Liang Jing’s situation, don’t let it spread outside!”
Liang Jing heard him and glanced at him gratefully. Everything was so unreal to him, like the feeling of escaping after a robbery.
All the people exhaled deeply, looking at each other with some fear. The only two girls in the group had pale faces. But Xiao Chen frowned, pondering over something.
The sun hung high in the sky. It shone and directly bathed everyone in light.
When they weren’t paying attention, Xiao Chen gazed at the people around him with a mysterious look in his eyes.
No accidents, no coincidences, nowhere to run!
No one can deceive the god of death!
Xiao Chen observed the group. They were all in a daze, and a heavy atmosphere pervaded their surroundings. He closed his eyes.
The god of death will use his scythe to kill those that cheated death. Everyone has nowhere to escape!
Deaths will continue to happen.
Next, who will die? Heh.
“Now do you know that you were wrong?” The man stroked Xiao Chen’s head, pampering and cuddling the other in his arms.
Xiao Chen coldly huffed, repeatedly poking the man’s chest with his index finger. “Who made you not tell me! You didn’t clearly say it!”
The man laughed at this little ancestor and wrapped his hand around Xiao Chen’s index finger. Then, he moved downwards until his palm held and protected the other’s.
The temperature of his hand wasn’t normal. To be precise, there was no temperature. And this was the same for the rest of his body.
Xiao Chen leaned against the man’s chest, swinging his legs in a lovely way.
In front of the man, he was cute and playful. But for everyone else, he would show his mature side. This was his own protective shell, and he would use it whenever he interacted with others.
The man’s appearance in his life had made up for his lack of fatherly love. He had allowed Xiao Chen to experience feelings beyond all those in the world.
Xiao Chen depended on him, worshipped him, and deeply loved him.
“Will they all die?” He stared at the man with extremely innocent eyes.
The man ruffled his hair, praising his acting. “Yes.”
Xiao Chen nodded. “Oh.”
He didn’t really care about anyone other than the man. His personality was flawed. He had lost his parents when he was young, and was later tossed among his relatives. In the end, he was sent to the orphanage. Plus, he had faced the bizarre threat of death many times.
Xiao Chen was more mature than others at his age, so there wasn’t a single friend by his side. He even suffered from emotional detachment. It was only when the man was present that he would behave like a normal child his age.
“Are you not leaving today?” Xiao Chen seemed to think of something, and he raised his head excitedly. He pulled his arms out of the man’s embrace and turned around. When they were face to face, he moved his hands to grip the man’s shoulders. “You will sleep with me today, right?”
The man felt it was a bit funny.
This child was always too straightforward. When he said sleep, he literally meant just sleeping together. There wasn’t the slightest trace of another more alluring meaning.
“Yes.”
Xiao Chen was just like a child who had been rewarded with candy by an adult. He shook the man’s shoulders non-stop. “I’m so happy!”
Liang Jing exhaled as he sat alone on the doorsteps in front of his house.
He looked haggard, and even when he saw the breakup message sent by his girlfriend Wang Xing, he merely sighed. He seemed to have lost his soul as he gazed ahead at the crowd of people walking back and forth.
I’m still alive...
I can actually continue to live?
Liang Jing began to tremble, and he felt as though he was on the verge of crying. But he was unaware that changes were happening to the mechanical watch on his wrist. The minute hand, hour hand, and second hand were slowly pointing to the number four. Now, they almost overlapped.
“Tick, tick! Tick, tick!” The sound was so faint that it couldn’t be heard.
“Hiss!” Liang Jing breathed in the cool air. He was too amazed by the fact that he was alive. As he poked the stones on the ground, he had no idea that his index finger had been pricked by a sharp edge. A drop of blood squeezed out.
At this time, Liang Jing seemed to have recovered. Without looking back, he stood up and opened the front door.
The moment the door closed, a small car abruptly lost control and crashed into the doorsteps. Its speed was so fast that it left the people on the streets dumbfounded.
But simply no one was injured.
As soon as Xiao Chen went inside, he sensed that the mood in the club was weird.
Their club was named the Extreme Challenge club. They enjoyed stimulating extreme sports, bungee jumping, ice skating, drop towers, skateboarding...
It was precisely because the members were too brave that even though the club had existed for a long time, they didn’t need to pay for operating costs. In addition, Li Haibo was a wronged big head, and he would always give money to the club. Despite this, few were willing to join. There were only six members, including Xiao Chen.
Once he saw that everyone had arrived, Li Haibo said to Wang Xing with a serious expression, “What’s the matter with you and Yang Meili? Why did you two call all of us here? Now, the atmosphere is so heavy, and you won’t say anything until all the people are here.”
Wang Xing was depressed and weak, and there were dark circles under her eyes. She appeared as if she hadn’t slept for days, and some pimples had emerged on her originally unblemished skin.
Yang Meili fared worse. She was shaking all over, and her hands tightly clutched Wang Xing’s arm. It was as if she was afraid that someone would separate them.
“Don’t you guys think that there have been abnormal occurrences ever since that day?” Ultimately, Wang Xing broke the awkward silence.
“What?” Liang Jing, who had been sitting quietly to the side, swiftly reacted.
“Isn’t it strange? Since that day, I have encountered all sorts of accidents, big and small. Initially, I accidentally cut my hand with a knife, but later, cars frequently almost crashed into me! Even when I got on the elevator, I was locked inside!”
Wang Xing’s eyes were wide, and she was a little scared. “At first, I believed it was only me. But yesterday, a flower pot almost smashed onto Yang Meili and I as we were walking. When I asked her, she said that she had also gone through all kinds of unusual events!”
Liang Jing’s lips were pale, and he thought of something. He said, “Recently, it’s been like this for me too.”
Yuan Zhong and Li Haibo refuted them. Li Haibo laughed with a bit of ridicule. “I assumed it was something important, but women actually have so many farts! If they are hit by flower pots, they must blame it on the supernatural!”
Wang Xing was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed. “How can it not be possible? Didn’t Liang Jing have a dream?”
All the people in the room suddenly froze.
This was a topic that they had agreed to never bring up. They chose not to talk about it, and tried to bypass it as much as possible. But they didn’t expect that Wang Xing would mention it so directly.
Liang Jing’s expression changed and he didn’t speak.
Wang Xing realized that this was not right, and her voice immediately softened. “I think that we need to be careful. Yang Meili and I just wanted to remind everyone so that you guys can consider this more.”
Yuan Zhong let out a “huh” sound, and didn’t give a response. Most likely, he didn’t believe it.
Li Haibo angrily said, “Okay, okay, whatever. Later, I’m going to go dive in the sea. Who wants to go?”
Wang Xing rolled her eyes, Yang Meili definitely wasn’t in the mood, and Liang Jing was still immersed in his own thoughts.
Li Haibo glanced at Yuan Zhong, who shrugged. “You know I have to work.”
Li Haibo raised his eyebrows and moved his sight to Xiao Chen. The other massaged the back of his shoulder with his left hand. “No time, I really want to sleep today.”
Li Haibo pouted. “Fine, I’ll go by myself!”
Xiao Chen stared back wordlessly. His hand stopped at his shoulder blade. There was a vague tattoo of a rose on his skin, and he gently pinched that area to ease his pain.
You may be able to evade the death penalty the first time.
But from the moment you luckily survived!
Death will always accompany you!
Because no one can escape death.
