The wind was very cold that night.
It was so cold that it reached the depths of my soul, as if countless ice picks were piercing my body, but I couldn't feel any pain, only the solidified blood and the endless cold.
The girl walked to the edge of the tall building with bare feet.
The snow-white dress flutters in the wind like a butterfly in the storm.
She smoothed her hair and looked at the thousands of lights in the city, her eyes filled with desolation.
The person you love the most is the person who hurts you the most.
She couldn't figure out why they hated her so much.
It was obvious that she had given everything she had, but she couldn't get a trace of tenderness and understanding.
Perhaps, it was because she was too insignificant, so insignificant that her life's efforts could not compare to the movement of a finger by others.
It was entirely her fault that she got to this day, but even at this moment, she still didn't understand what she had done wrong.
She was stupid, so stupid that she knew she was wrong, but she didn't know why.
She just tried her best to be an honest, obedient woman.
But she still couldn't do it well.
She would never forget the look in their eyes, the resentment that penetrated her bones and made her soul tremble.
She is just a mediocre woman. Compared with their brilliance, she doesn't even have the light of a firefly.
Her weak shoulders could not bear the hatred of the two adults, and she had no future.
Maybe she was too stupid and could never adapt to the rules of this world. In this sea of bright lights, not a single one is her shelter.
At this point, it seems that there is only one way she can go in order not to hurt other people.
"Mom, I'm sorry..."
The girl opened her arms like a flying bird and threw herself into the thousands of lights.
In the process of falling, fragments of life flashed by quickly, including encounters, partings, reunions, and brokenness, and the final scene was fixed on that sunny afternoon.
After a brief moment of silence, frightened screams rang out from below.
Three hours ago…
The Wrights Crown Hotel in Dragon City, officers’ exchange reception.
"Oh my god, did you see it? He drank the whole cocktail party by himself."
"Being so drunk and without any sense of self-consciousness as a soldier is simply an embarrassment to the military of our Red Dragon Principality."
"It turns out that he is the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force. It's really shocking to hear about it a hundred times."
"Hmph, what kind of level can a pretty boy get by climbing into women's beds?"
"Shh, keep your voice down, don't let him hear you."
In the hall where crystal chandeliers shone, a group of officers gathered together, whispering to each other. From the corner of their eyes, they glanced at the drunkard in the corner.
"Tch, so what if he hears it? He's just a loser. The spiritual energy fluctuations in his body are so weak that even I can't beat him."
"Yeah, I also find it strange. It's obviously just the psychic fluctuation of the great guard. How did he achieve those achievements? How did he bravely break through the Seven Layers Mountain and defeat Marquis Haitang?"
"Needless to say, it must be the credit of the adult behind him. It's just a chess piece on the surface, there's nothing to be proud of."
"Good evening, handsome fellows from the military department."
A handsome young man walked over, with a warm smile on his face, handsome and sunny.
"It's Mr. Li, General Staff Officer!" "Good evening, Mr. Li!" "I wish you a pleasant night."
The young officers greeted each other one after another.
Behind the young man was a girl in a white dress, but the officers seemed to ignore her presence and didn't even look at her, let alone say hello.
The girl was not unhappy because she was ignored. She stood there quietly with a smile on her face, unconcerned with the world.
"Master Li, we were discussing a person just now..." As he said that, the officer glanced pointedly at the drunkard who was drinking by himself not far away.
The Lord Li he was talking about was Ricardo, the Chief of Staff of the Dragon City Military Department.
"It is not polite to talk about colleagues behind their backs," Ricardo said with a smile.
"We are really curious as to why such a trash can appear here and even step on our heads," the officer said.
Ricardo turned to look at Chen Xing in the corner. He seemed to be in a bad mood. He had been drinking since he came in and didn't talk to anyone. It seemed that the other person only had wine in his eyes.
But he knew that this man was very keen. In order to avoid being noticed by the other party, he quickly withdrew his gaze and said to the officer, "Don't jump to conclusions about people you are not familiar with."
"But..." The officer wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Ricardo.
"I have been in contact with him. This person is not simple. If you cherish life, it is best to stay away from him." When he said this, Ricardo suppressed his smile and looked serious.
This is a stern warning but also a kind reminder.
"Thank you, General Staff, for the tip!" The officer broke into a cold sweat and quickly bowed to express his gratitude.
For a moment, the atmosphere became a little tense. In order to break the silence caused by him, Ricardo smiled again and suggested, "Who would like to play cards with me, a beginner?"
"Okay, okay!" "I, I'll do it!" "General Staff, please give me some advice!"
The officers immediately became excited and rushed to play cards with Ricardo. The entire military in Lizard City knew that the Eagle Owl on Dragon's Shoulder was extremely bad at playing cards and would lose every bet. He was like a walking cash machine.
Surrounded by the officers, Ricardo entered the side hall specially designed for the officers to play cards.
The girl who came with Ricardo did not follow him, but quietly fell a few steps behind and stayed in the hall.
On such occasions, she always had no sense of presence, and no one would notice her.
Passing through the chatting crowd, she came to the corner of the hall, next to the drunkard.
"Mr. Mercenary, you can't drink anymore." Su Xuefei advised, with concern in her eyes.
Chen Xing glanced at Su Xuefei, as if looking at a stranger, then lowered his head and continued to drink his wine.
He wouldn't want to know the other person if he could help it. This woman would only bring him trouble. She broke his heart when she left her in the last life, and in this life she caused him to betray her relatives. Being involved with her would only bring bad luck.
"Mr. Mercenary, you will get drunk if you drink any more." Su Xuefei did not give up.
"Go away!" Chen Xing shouted impatiently. His eyes were bloodshot, like a wounded wolf.
Su Xuefei didn't expect Chen Xing to react so violently, and was stunned for a moment. She didn't understand that he was so nice and gentle to her last time they met, but now he was suddenly so fierce.
After Chen Xing finished yelling, he ignored her and continued to drink.
But she did not give up because of this. Instead, she mustered up the courage to hold Chen Xing's wine bottle with both hands to prevent him from drinking.
"Let's go!" Chen Xing drove away again.
Although she was yelled at, Su Xuefei still did not give up. With tears in her beautiful big eyes, she stubbornly grabbed the bottle.
"I told you to get lost, do you hear me!" Chen Xing became more and more angry, and his voice attracted the attention of others.
"Sick brain!" Chen Xing cursed, threw away the bottle, stood up and walked away unsteadily.
Su Xuefei followed him, head lowered, like a headless
Home ready kitten.
Chen Xing walked to the dining table, but he had already drank all the wine on the table.
He rummaged around and finally found a whole box of unopened ones under the table. He tore it open roughly and took it out to drink.
Su Xuefei didn't say anything and stepped forward to grab it.
"What are you doing!"
Because Chen Xing was already very drunk, his hand slipped during the fight, and the bottle fell to the ground, leaving wine and glass shards all over the floor.
"How rude!" "Did he consider this place to be his own home?" "What a shame!"
The officers were filled with indignation at Chen Xing's behavior, but no one dared to step forward to stop him.
Although they cursed a lot, no one really opened their eyes and asked for trouble. That's the popular person next to the Northern Princess, maybe the pretty guy who stays with her in bed. If you dare to offend him, you are afraid that your life will be too long.
"Hey, isn't that Ricardo's woman? Why is she flirting with other men? This is so inappropriate!"
"Aren't all Liuying like this? You think she is a noble lady!"
The noble ladies pointed at Su Xuefei. They were extremely jealous of the woman who had won the title of "The Most Handsome Guy in Dragon City".
"Paper is paper, it's watery and a born bitch." A woman like her would never turn into a phoenix even if she flew up a branch. "
Ricardo, who was born into a wealthy family, had both talent and learning, and was of unparalleled good looks. He had been the secret crush of aristocratic ladies since his school days.
Unexpectedly, Ricardo didn't like anyone, but he was fascinated by this lowly wandering warbler. He took her everywhere with her all day long. No matter where she went, she was in pairs, which made their eyes hurt and their chests felt tight.
Good thing now, not only has Ricardo been fascinated by it, but he has also become involved with this rising star, Chen Xing.
Although Chen Xing has a bad reputation, it is in the eyes of powerful men and women. In the eyes of women, a man's reputation comes after his strength and status.
Chen Xing is young, only about 25 or 26 years old. Although his appearance is not as good as that of a super handsome guy like Ricardo, he is still good-looking, and as a general, he has the heroic spirit of a soldier.
The most important thing is that this man has a high position and an amazing record. He is only higher than Ricardo, and he is deeply respected by that gentleman. His future is limitless. He has become the target of the new generation of noble ladies, and he has vaguely surpassed Ricardo. sign.
Su Xuefei was involved with two of the best men in Lizard City at the same time, which made them jealous.
"Don't follow me!"
On the other side, Chen Xing was so annoyed by Su Xuefei that he turned around and entered the side room to avoid her.
Su Xuefei took a cup of hot tea from the waiter and chased after him.
"Look, they're entering the room!"
"Oh my God, that's a rest room. They're alone, what are they doing in there?"
"Why is she so shameless? She wants to find another man when she has Jiatu!"
"This is too blatant. Ricardo is still here."
"Poor owl, someone go talk to him."
"Go ahead, I don't dare." "It's better to treat this kind of thing as if you don't know about it..." "Don't get involved with this matter."
"Haha, you are so cowardly." "Then go over and take a peek~" "I don't want it, it's so dirty~"
The aristocratic ladies covered their mouths with fans and laughed softly, all gloating about the misfortune, as if they were waiting for a good show.
In fact, Su Xuefei, who followed the room, simply wanted to take care of Chen Xing, and was not as dirty as the noble ladies imagined.
In her mind, Chen Xing was the benefactor who helped their mother and daughter.
Although he was the first man to tug at her heartstrings, she was already with another man, so she chose to bury this love deep in her heart and make it a secret that only she knew.
Perhaps because of the disparity in status, she and Ricardo would not have any outcome in the end, but she had no regrets because this was Liu Ying's fate.
In the room, Chen Xing collapsed on the sofa, like a puddle of mud.
Seeing the man she once admired ruining her, Su Xuefei felt unspeakably distressed. She knelt in front of the sofa and handed the tea that had been tested to the temperature in front of Chen Xing, "Drink some hot tea. Tea can sober up..."
"roll!"
Chen Xing pushed hard and Su Xuefei fell to the ground. The glass fell out of her hand and smashed to pieces on the ground.
Seeing Su Xuefei's panicked look, a trace of unbearability flashed in Chen Xing's eyes, but this bit of pity was quickly overwhelmed by the darkness in his heart.
"Don't be hypocritical with me. I have lived for three lifetimes and I have seen through you all!"
"None of you women are good!"
"You are nice to men, but you just want to take advantage of them!"
"You want their money, and you want them to fight for you!"
"If it's no longer of use value, just kick it away. It's easier than throwing garbage!"
As he spoke, Chen Xing laughed, his smile extremely bitter, "I'm such a fool, so stupid that I can't be saved..."
He is a time traveler, a lonely time and space traveler. He comes to this unaccompanied world, like a rootless duckweed, drifting with the current wherever he goes.
If one day he falls down during his journey, no one will remember him as if he never existed.
Here, he has no relatives and all relationships are based on interests.
No matter where he goes, there is an uneasy feeling of drifting, and his heart is always hanging in the air, unable to get true peace.
He once naively thought that after his rebirth, he gained real emotions, and the world finally gave him a sense of belonging.
However, all this fell apart in just a few days, like a dream in vain.
It turns out that he is still alone.
"No, it's not..." Su Xuefei grabbed Chen Xing's hand and shook her head vigorously, "Mr. Mercenary is a kind and gentle person..."
"Do you want to give me a good guy card?" Chen Xing said sarcastically.
Su Xuefei didn't understand the Internet terminology on Earth, and her eyes filled with tears, "Xuefei believes that Mr. Mr. Mercenary, a kind and gentle man, will definitely find happiness."
"Who can't tell lies and empty words?" Chen Xing sneered.
"No, what I told is the truth." Su Xuefei said firmly.
"Hahaha..." Chen Xing smiled desolately, "I am a cursed person and do not deserve happiness."
Although Su Xuefei reacted slowly, she could still see that Chen Xing was hurt by love. In order to encourage the love in her heart, she mustered up the courage and said, "Maybe, maybe in this world..."
"There are still people who love you silently."
"So please, you must take care of yourself!"
"You are so eloquent, why don't you become a speaker?" Chen Xing mocked. This woman betrayed him twice. If you still believe her lies, you would be really stupid.
"I, I can't be a speaker. Jia Tu always said that I am stupid and often say the wrong things, but, but..." Su Xuefei's eyes glowed, "Everything I say is the truth. In this world, there is no truth." Someone is loving you silently."
"Believe in yourself, you are a man worthy of love."
"A man worthy of a good girl's love."
"It's just that the person who is suitable for you may be hiding somewhere, waiting to meet you...
…”
"How can you be so sure?" Chen Xing showed a cruel smile, "Are you the one who loves me silently?"
Su Xuefei's face suddenly turned red when she was exposed, and she quickly denied, "No, it's not..."
"If not, then why are you blushing?"
"No, I'm not blushing."
Chen Xing showed a playful expression, like a wild wolf seeing its prey.
Dark and cruel, he takes advantage of weak prey. He said in a magnetic voice, "Su Xuefei, why don't you come with me and let's start over..."
"I have everything Ricardo has, and I have everything Ricardo doesn't have."
He has the confidence to say this. He had a heavy army and controlled most of the medium-sized principality. Ricardo was just the chief of staff of the military department, with no soldiers and a pitiful base.
Chen Xing's face slowly approached, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes. Su Xuefei stepped back involuntarily.
She is already someone else's woman.
That person was very kind to her. Although he could not be called considerate and often called her stupid, she knew that he was sincere to her.
Even if the man in front of her is the true love of her heart, there is a bottom line that she cannot cross. She cannot let down the sincerity of others.
She can give everything, even her life, for her true love, but she cannot hurt another man who loves her. This is her final bottom line as a woman with an independent personality.
Seeing that she was afraid of him, Chen Xing further confirmed her lie. Talking about loving him silently are all coaxing words. To put it bluntly, it's not just to hang him up so that he can pay.
The more he thought like this, the more he hated it. What was originally meant to be a joke has now ignited a fire of resentment.
He wanted to tear apart her disguise and expose her vanity and hypocrisy to the air.
"come over!"
Chen Xing grabbed Su Xuefei and dragged her to the sofa. Su Xuefei was just an ordinary woman who had never used evolution potions. She was as weak as a lamb in front of the great guard's physical strength.
"Mr. Mercenary, no, Commander-in-Chief, please, please let me go..."
Su Xuefei struggled desperately, but the arms around her waist were like steel bars, and she couldn't even open a finger.
"Sir, please respect yourself..."
With a joking smile on Chen Xing's face, he reached in with his other hand and played with it.
"Stop, stop!"
Su Xuefei shed tears and struggled desperately, but Chen Xing showed no mercy, as if he wanted to crush her into pieces.
During the struggle, Su Xuefei shook her arms subconsciously.
"Snapped!"
Chen Xing received a slap on the face, stopped what he was doing, and stared into the other person's eyes.
Su Xuefei covered her mouth and apologized repeatedly, "Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it!"
"Bitch!" Chen Xing was furious, his expression becoming more and more distorted.
"Please let me go, okay, please, please let me go!" Su Xuefei begged. But the more she begged, the angrier Chen Xing became.
His woman was guarding her virginity for other men. He was jealous and resentful. He could no longer control his emotions and fell into madness.
"Tear!"
The skirt was torn open and thrown aside.
Su Xuefei struggled desperately, and her nails scratched Chen Xing's neck and shoulders, which were covered in blood.
Under the control of alcohol and anger, Chen Xing has completely lost his mind, like an evil ghost crawling out of hell, just wanting to vent his resentment and dissatisfaction.
"How can you pretend to be arrogant in front of me, like a poster with thousands of people riding on top of you?"
"You are just a lowly wandering warbler, and you still think you are some kind of pure goddess!"
Su Xuefei was stunned. She never imagined that such vicious words would come out of this man's mouth.
She seemed to have lost all her strength in an instant, like a walking corpse, at the mercy of Chen Xing.
She knew that she was just a humble woman who relied on selling her body to survive. The whole world could scold her and look down on her, but one person could not.
He was so gentle and beautiful, like a flame in the cold darkness, warming her heart. Every time she wanted to give up, she would be supported to keep going.
But it was this person who insulted her with the most vicious language in the world.
It would be great if I died now...
However, this cruel world did not let her go, but pushed her into a darker abyss.
"Clang!"
Suddenly there was a loud noise and the door to the room was violently pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, the woman screamed, as if she saw something dirty.
Hearing the noise, Chen Xing straightened up slowly and looked at the door of the room.
The first thing that caught his eye was an angry lion, and then there were a group of companions around the lion who he considered to be dispensable.
"What are you doing!"
Ricardo, standing in the middle of the crowd, shouted sternly, his fists clenched, his joints turning white, and his eyes about to burst out with fire.
Chen Xing spread his hands and looked like he had no comment.
Although Ricardo was extremely angry, he still remained rational and did not attack Chen Xing directly.
Seeing the disheveled Su Xuefei, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes. He took off his coat and threw it over to cover her body.
"It's so shameless. She still messes around with others when she has a man." "I feel so worthless for her man." "It's so disgusting, I almost vomited." "If I were her, I would want to die right away! "
Su Xuefei looked at the ground with empty eyes, like a broken toy doll.
"It's already this time, why are you still pretending to be innocent? Everyone saw it with their own eyes. She took the initiative to follow the man into the room." "I made some paper and wanted to erect a memorial arch. Do you think everyone is an idiot?" "I've never seen this before. Such a shameless person."
Su Xuefei raised her head and looked at Ricardo. She opened her mouth to explain something, but was stabbed by the other person's cold gaze and swallowed the rest of her words.
When something like this happens, explanation is meaningless.
"Old K, this way, the boss is over here!"
At this moment, two people squeezed into the crowd. One is Lao K and the other is Xiao Yang. The two of them searched all the way here and looked for people everywhere at the reception, but they never found Chen Xing in the room. Hearing the noise, he hurried over.
When the two saw this, they knew that Chen Xing had caused trouble again, so they rushed forward, holding Chen Xing one on the left and one on the right, and dragged him away.
After Chen Xing left, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
Only Ricardo and Su Xuefei were left in the room.
"You really let me down..."
"From now on, we have nothing to do with each other."
"For matters related to White Tower Academy, you should find someone else."
After saying the last few words, Ricardo turned and left with a decisive look from behind, never looking back again.
The footsteps gradually faded away, and the room fell into dead silence, leaving only the girl sitting alone.
After an unknown amount of time, she put on the torn white skirt, placed her coat flatly on the sofa, carefully smoothed the wrinkles on it, then stood up and went out...
