Revenge Sevenfold

Chapter 148 I’m Not Afraid To Die

Jiang Xu looked at Hui Yin who seemed to be struggling with herself and gently removed the hand covering his mouth.

"Wifey?"

Hui Yin looked at him. In a serious tone, she asked, "Jiang Xu, are you afraid to die?"

He was bewildered at the question. Why was his Wifey behaving so strangely?

She didn't wait for him to answer.

"I'm not afraid to die either. Come on, let's go."

She grabbed his hand pulled them out from behind the tarpaulin sheet.

Hui Yin didn't know where her nervousness had came from. Even if they saw her, Nian Zhen would probably gloat and Lu Shen wouldn't care. Why did she have to be mindful of them? Is the carnival theirs? Are they the only ones allowed to be here?

Hmph, we're paying visitors too!

Just as she was thinking that, Lu Shen shifted his head slightly and Hui Yin raised the huge panda in the air to hide both her and Jiang Xu. But no, Lu Shen had just glanced at the flamboyant-looking unicorn in the carousel with a peculiar expression.

Hui Yin nearly slapped herself in self-reproach. He wasn't even looking at you, and your knees are shaking in fright! Where is your dignity as a woman, using a cute panda as your shield?

Hui Yin lifted her chin. Alright, she could admit it, she was scared that Lu Shen might hack her into mincemeat when he sees her together with Jiang Xu. She knew that he didn't love her, but he was still possessive of his 'toys'. In comparison to him, even those dedicated toy collectors would probably be so ashamed that they could not face their fathers and forefathers.

Jiang Xu looked down at their intertwined hands and was so happy that he felt he like he was floating. Swinging their hands lightly, he dragged Hui Yin to the direction of the ferris wheel.

There was a myth that says the height of the ferris wheel was equal to a person's happiness, so if a pair of lovers ride it and they kiss each other when the ferris wheel rises to its highest point, they will be together for the rest of their lives.

Jiang Xu wanted to be together forever with his Wifey.

Naturally, Hui Yin was not thinking of these things. Her own thoughts were simple as she followed Jiang Xu to the queue of people lining up at the entrance. Lu Shen and Nian Zhen were going the opposite way, so if they could hide inside the ferris wheel until the two of them left, wouldn't it be a happy ending for all of them?

They got into one of the passenger cars and Hui Yin finally breathed a sigh of relief. They were the last people on the line, so she thought they would have to wait a while for their turn.

The ferris wheel moved, and Jiang Xu opened his mouth to tell the myth to his Wifey. If she was embarrassed, then he would propose to kiss her forehead only. That should be okay, right?

But their passenger car only shifted once before the ferris wheel stopped again. Hui Yin looked down.

The students from the car next to them got off, and Jiang Xu said, "Wifey..."

Hui Yin never got to hear what he wanted to say. With a high-pitched squeak, she pressed her face against the glass, her hands leaving palm-sized imprints. She stared at the couple stepping into the passenger car the students had just vacated, the same passenger car that was only next to theirs.

Jiang Xu saw that Hui Yin's face was drained of color, so he asked in concern, "Wifey?"

But Hui Yin was raising her panda stuffed toy again, using it as a cardboard box to hide them. If anyone looks into their passenger car, they would only see a huge panda staring back at them.

Hui Yin's tears overflowed.

Fuck their ancestors to the eighteenth generation!

Why are these two following them like cursed ghosts that she could not shake off?

She just wanted to spend a peaceful day at the park, ah!

Hui Yin stared at Jiang Xu looking puzzled beside her and assumed the relaxed expression of Buddha. No matter what, she could not tell him of their imminent death.

My child, you are about to get your wish of being able to sleep forever, don't you know?
