1387: Dead People

Dead People

After a moment of silence, Bai Liyue finally spoke in spite of herself, "Sometimes, you shouldn't be too confident with your words. You might be able to plan ahead, but you could never predict what would happen exactly in the future. The reason lies in the human heart. In this world, the only thing that always surprises you is the human heart. And I don't think that you can be absolutely sure of what that woman is thinking."0

"What if I say I can?"

"Then, I hope you'll never regret making that choice."

Bai Liyue closed her eyes in anger.

She had given up on him anyway, so Feng Shengxuan deserved it if he suffered from this decision.

"There's no way I'd regret it because dead people tell no tales."

Shocked, Bai Liyue's eyes snapped open to look at Feng Shengxuan. At this moment, Feng Shengxuan held out his phone to Bai Liyue. On the screen, a woman's attractively curved eyes were wide open. Even though she was already dead, the terror and disbelief on her face were unmistakable.

There was a patch of bright red where her heart was supposed to be, and Bai Liyue did not need any explanation to know that she died from a single gunshot.

"She…"

"She's Viper, and she is my uncle's adopted daughter."

"Does she have anything to do with the test subjects?"

Feng Shengxuan was silent for half a minute before he finally answered Bai Liyue.

"She was the one who first created the test subjects.."

Bai Liyue, "…!!!"

"You said that you had something to do in the past two days because you were ending her?"

"Yes."

"She's an important right-hand woman to you. Are you fine with killing her off just like that?"

Feng Shengxuan smiled. His charming eyes were now tinged with a seductive smirk.

"To me, dogs should be obedient. When it comes to a disobedient dog, no matter how good it is at guarding the house, I won't let it stay."

Bai Liyue glared at Feng Shengxuan. "So to you, I'm just a another dog too."

Bai Liyue's words caused Feng Shengxuan's sleazy and devilish expression to suddenly turn serious; his eyebrows furrowing tightly against each other.

Bai Liyue was his subordinate, so what she said was not completely wrong. Even so, no matter how often he scolded her, he had never treated her like a dog.

"You're the daughter of the Bai family. The Bai family and KE are partners."

Bai Liyue smiled. "It's not like you don't know that I'm just an imposter. I'm here to be your subordinate on behalf of the Bai Liyue's real lady of the Bai family."

"Enough, Bai Liyue! Don't push your luck! I already said no, so what else do you want? You'll only be satisfied if I confess, right?"

The room lapsed into another wave of silence.

At that moment, Lil Ling'er's screams were audible from the outside, along with the laughter of many people. Feng Shengxuan walked to the window and looked outside.

A group of people was standing on a flat and wide area outside the Chi residence, building an entire house's worth of twenty to thirty snowmen. Right now, there should be around twenty or thirty snowmen.

These snowmen were tall, short, fat, and thin. There were adults and children, as well as dogs and lions. There were houses and cars among them.

Someone brought strings of small light bulbs. Lights of various colors intersected the pile of white objects, and the place instantly transformed into a dreamy winter wonderland.

The laughter outside alerted the seniors inside, so the family retrieved more scarves, hats, gloves, and even clothes for the snowmen.

Chi Yang lit up close to ten boxes of fireworks outside.

Dazzling fireworks bloomed in the sky, turning into specks of gold that sprinkled downward like a golden galaxy, illuminating the entire world.

Even Bai Liyue could not help but get off the bed and walk to the window. Looking at the lively scene below, she felt a surge of envy.
