Chapter 98: Cliff (6)

The people who were in Luo Nuanfeng’s group had also gotten out of the car. They all stood in a row while looking at the sky.

Even though Ye Xi was mesmerized by this scenery, she still didn’t leave her seat.

Nan Gonghai, who was sitting at the back, sat beside her and leaned on the back of the driver’s seat. With one hand supporting his face, he looked at Ye Xi and asked her, “Aren’t you going out to see the meteor shower?”

Ye Xi looked at him and responded, “What about you?”

Nan Gonghai didn’t answer her. Instead, he looked at the sky outside and opened his mouth, “Did you know about this? Xiao Lan was abducted once when he was young.”

Ye Xi kept a straight face on. However, her gaze had moved towards the window and landed on Wei Shenglan’s figure.

Kidnapping and extortion… what kind of male lead hadn’t experienced such things in the past?

They simply didn’t exist.

If such things didn’t happen, then how could the male lead’s personality turn so lonely?

Nan Gonghai added on, “He was only ten years old when it happened. By the time the police found him, he… tsk, tsk, tsk. No part of him looked human at all.”

If he didn’t look human then what? Did he look like a ghost?

Ye Xi shot him a silent glare.

Nan Gonghai stared at her expressionless face for a moment before continuing, “Do you know why he didn’t look human back then? At that time, those traffickers sliced off his thigh, they fried and ate it.”

Ye Xi remained silent, her face remained expressionless as it had been during the start of the conversation.

Nan Gonghai suddenly stopped talking before he got off the car.

To be honest, Ye Xi had always been very confused. Why do the male leads in novels always have such tragic childhood experiences? Even though this was a reasonable explanation for their terrible personalities in the present time, it still wasn’t a good enough reason to have such trauma forced on to them. Many people can have a bad temperament from the start, it would still be perfectly reasonable even if they didn’t have a tragic past!

What’s more, Wei Shenglan’s character wasn’t even that bad. He was practically just kidnapped for nothing then, right?!

No matter how you looked at it, it was just the authors being scumbags.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she felt. Finally, she couldn’t hold it any longer and left the car.

As soon as she got off, she heard a conflict happening between Wei Shenglan and the others at the front.

Suddenly, Bing Yiyi pushed Wei Shenglan. The latter’s footing slipped and he grabbed onto the person beside him. The person beside them who was trying to break the fight up had also slipped, in turn, he too dragged the person beside him…

And so, with everyone pulling each other down, they ended up forming a line as they all rolled down the cliff together.

Various screams and yells were mixed together before it finally disappeared into the endless night sky.

The only ones left on the cliff was a dumbfounded Bing Yiyi and a stunned Ye Xi.

After a moment of silence, Ye Xi finally came back to her senses. Anger surged into her heart, it burned out all semblance of reason she had left. She couldn’t think calmly anymore.

With almost no ability for rational thought, Ye Xi rushed in front of Bing Yiyi and threw her a heavy slap.

With this slap, she brought the dazed Bing Yiyi back to reality.

She looked at Ye Xi with disbelief and exclaimed, “How dare you hit me?! Not even my mother has hit me before!”

In response to her yell, Ye Xi quickly reached out her hand and gave the woman in front of her another slap. It was too light. Just these slaps alone were too light.

It wasn’t enough for Ye Xi.

She felt so angry that she couldn’t wait to tear the person in front of her to shreds, this feeling only grew increasingly stronger as she fiercely stared at Bing Yiyi.

Bing Yiyi was also enraged at what just happened. She couldn’t believe that someone would actually hit her. She reached her hand out towards Ye Xi and tried returning a slap, but Ye Xi grabbed her hand and reached her foot out to kick back.

The two fell into a scuffle, they both ignored the fact that they were on a cliff, ignored the gorgeous meteors falling from the sky, and ignored the people who had fallen down the cliff.

The both of them were just too angry.

The person Bing Yiyi thought she could obtain turned around and fell in love with someone else instead. Moreover, she indirectly had accidentally caused the deaths of so many people. Nobody could know of this!

She almost had what she wanted, and she still has a bright future ahead of her. She definitely can’t be ruined in this place!

Bing Yiyi’s maliciousness gathered. With harmful thoughts in mind, she brought Ye Xi to the edge of the cliff.

Ye Xi grabbed on tightly to Bing Yiyi’s arm. If she was going to die, then she was going to bring this b*tch with her!

However, in reality, Ye Xi didn’t want to die.

This crisis suddenly brought Ye Xi back to her senses. She tried her best to move away from the cliff’s edge. However, the other woman, Bing Yiyi, could only think about pushing Ye Xi down the cliff right now, all so that the secrets of tonight would be completely buried.

At this moment, a crack resounded.

A crack began to form right where they stood, and it quickly spread around them.

Bing Yiyi was startled. She too didn’t want to die. Without caring about Ye Xi anymore, she tried her best to move away from the edge.

But Ye Xi was one step too late. She wasn’t able to escape, however, she managed to hold on to Bing Yiyi. And so, Bing Yiyi, who had just gotten back to safety, was also dragged down with her.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!”

As both of them fell, Bing Yiyi’s shrill screams overshadowed Ye Xi’s.

While tumbling down, Ye Xi had only one thought.

She managed to escape from the lake and the collision, but she never expected that she wouldn’t be able to escape the hillside at the last moment.

Being the female protagonist sure was tiring.
