Chapter 5

Xu Yi went back to her own room. She could still hear Xu Changrong’s screams of anger and Zhao Yamei’s sarcastic voice from downstairs.

Those cheap and bitter words were like thorns piercing Xu Yi’s heart.

The clean and fresh smell of Xu Yi’s shower cream lingered in the air. The soft smell of jasmine was just like her gentle and calm temperament.

An Xin was feisty and petty. Those personalities had no relations with her name.

Xu Yi was gentle and docile. She was generous with everyone, that was why she was always bullied.

Now, Xu Yi was dead. The Xu Yi that was alive was not the real Xu Yi. An Xin was living in Xu Yi’s body now, she would help her live her life to the fullest.

From the moment she woke up in the hospital, she decided that she would not allow anyone to bully her anymore.

Those people who had bullied her, shamed her, betrayed her, and hurt her, she would seek revenge from them one by one in the future. She would take back what belonged to her, be it money or justice.

Her head laid on the fluffy pillows. She looked at the ceiling with a smile as her eyes filled with tears. Her hands gripped the blanket underneath her. It was wrinkled beneath her grip.

An Xin, Xu Yi, no matter who she was, she would live life to the fullest for them.

Blood!

There was blood on the road and also blood on the clothes. It was as if the whole world was stained with this woman’s blood.

“I want her to live.” Ye Shaotang grabbed the doctor that was about to go into the operating room. There was a hint of anxiousness on his cold face. “No matter what, she has to live.”

After three hours of salvage, the door of the operating room finally opened. The doctor’s clothes were all stained in blood as well.

“I’m sorry, President Ye. We did our best.”

Buzz buzz buzz.

The vibration of his phone woke Ye Shaotang from his nightmare. He frowned and grabbed his phone to switch off the alarm before throwing it to one side.

His body leaned against the leather seat. There were beads of sweat on his forehead, and his fingers were trembling slightly.

Perhaps it was because he saw the dead An Xin with Xu Yi in the morning, he had felt restless after that. He was taking an afternoon nap and dreamt about the day he had sent An Xin to the hospital.

His hidden emotions were all exposed. It was like they were mocking him for being cold and heartless.

The accident happened so suddenly. An Xin had died from the accident. He was very reluctant to accept this fact because she was the woman he truly loved.

He loved her arrogance because a woman like her would not get bullied.

He loved her pettiness. It was just like his personality.

But his love toward her was mixed with hatred.

Initially, he could go against his grandfather’s wish and not marry Xu Yi, but An Xin was the one who sent Xu Yi to his bed, that was why he had married her in the end.

She sent Xu Yi to his bed to anger him, so now, he would torture An Xin’s best friend to anger her.

He was also as petty as her.

But because of that scheming woman, Xu Yi, An Xin was dead. She had played dead to get him to the hospital, which then resulted in An Xin’s death.

Xu Yi!

Ye Shaotang was overcome with rage when he thought about this woman.

His hands clenched into fists and his eyes darkened into a chilling shade. He would not be a man if he did not seek revenge for An Xin.

That night, Xu Yi did not sleep well at all. Perhaps it was because she slept on a different bed. She woke up as soon as she fell asleep. It could be she was not in her own body, she kept on dreaming of Xu Yi.

She looked at the familiar yet obscure face in the mirror. Her face was pale, there were dark circles under her eyes. She looked wan and sallow. Her tightly pursed lips made her looked like she was extremely nervous.
