Chapter 67 Entanglement
Tao Jingya sat in front of the dresser, staring blankly at her reflection, recalling last night's nightmare. In fact, for her, that dream was a beautiful dream. In the dream, there was her white knight prince - Ying.
Is there really such a person in real life? Not being moved by one's own appearance, but instead being so indifferent to oneself. With looks that are so handsome, and skills that are so good, with bravery and strategy, it can be said to be perfect!
Tao Jing's hands supported her cheeks, a flush spreading across her face as she savored every detail of the dream, from their first meeting to waking up in the dream and returning to reality. Jing felt that it wasn't just a simple dream because everything was so real; when her legs went weak and Ying supported her, she could even feel Ying's body temperature and heartbeat.
If there really is a person like Shadow in real life, then the scene where they meet in reality must be especially beautiful... Jing Xuan's mind wandered to various scenarios of meeting Shadow, fantasizing about getting to know each other, falling in love, and spending their lives together... She couldn't help but laugh out loud.
In the nightmare, Jingya watched as Ying and Lianxiu rushed out of the exit gate together. Jingya quietly walked to the exit, pressed her face against the door, and listened to the movements inside. Time passed second by second, but Jingya didn't hear any screams or terrifying sounds...
Jingyao's hand trembled as she reached for the door, deciding to take a risk and follow Lianxi and Ying's footsteps inside. Although Jingyao didn't know what would happen if she went in, she knew that since Ying had gone ahead, at least there was Ying with her!
Jing slowly pushed open the big door, tightly closed her eyes, and moved forward, taking very small steps at a slow pace... She knew she heard the 'bang' of the closing door, then by her ear, she recalled a chilling voice "Congratulations on completing the task, you have obtained 10 survival points." Before she could think more, she woke up from her dream.
After waking up, Jingya rubbed her eyes and found herself in a familiar place. It was all just a dream...
"Lan Yu, Qiao Jia! Thank goodness you're both okay!" Lian Xi's eyes reddened again, this time with tears of joy. The recent events had caused Lian Xi, who originally didn't like to cry, to frequently shed tears.
Lan Yu and Qiao Jia didn't say anything extra, but tightly hugged each other. This scene made the heart of the shadow also slightly tremble, if not for holding back, it's likely to shed tears too.
Ying gently patted Lian Xi and made a gesture to her. Lian Xi understood what Ying meant, stood up, and walked out of Qiao Jia's room with Ying. Having just been pulled back from the brink of death, it was indeed time for them to have some alone time together. Besides, Lian Xi was already very exhausted...
"Lian Yu, don't you want to go back to your room and rest for a bit?" Ying no longer needed to pretend or hide her true feelings. Everything that should be said had been said in the nightmare game. "I'll worry about you if you're exhausted, go sleep for a while! I'll go prepare some food for you guys!"
Lian Yu looked at Ying with a haggard face. "I won't rest anymore." After saying that, he turned to look at Qiao Jia's door again.
"They're already safe, what are you still worried about?" Ying suddenly rushed up and put her hands on Lian Xi's shoulders. "Lian Xi, can't you live for yourself? Your heart is always thinking of others, everything is considered for others, have you ever thought of yourself?"
Ying was very excited, his voice loud, and scared Lian Xi so much that she jumped. Lian Xi opened her eyes wide to look at Ying, with red and swollen eye sockets, not knowing what to say, her brain seemed to have short-circuited, repeatedly thinking "Can't you live for yourself..."
"Sorry, Lianxi, I was too excited... sorry." Ying hurriedly let go of Lianxi. He indeed was too excited, but since the moment he fell in love with Lianxi, his world had been revolving around her. He didn't care about anyone else's life or death, as long as Lianxi wouldn't get hurt, either physically or mentally...
Ying turned around and walked downstairs, while Lian Xi stood still for a long time, numbly watching Ying's back disappear from her line of sight.
Lian Xi felt particularly tired, she walked to the railing on the second floor and looked down at the first floor. She thought about the game process, the shadow said "Lian Xi! I like you!" And the two of them rushed into the exit door together, then hugged each other in a scene, Lian Xi smiled with a moved heart.
Although this game brought her so many doubts and worries, it also fulfilled them. She and Ying were willing to face their own hearts openly. Yes, Lian Xi had also fallen in love with Ying...
Lian Yu looked at the busy figure downstairs and felt a strange sense of familiarity, as if they had met before. This was followed by another pang of heartache... This situation had occurred more than once since moving into Ying's home and having closer contact with him, this feeling had become more frequent...
Lian Xi always felt that she had experienced these things before, but no matter how hard she tried to recall them in her memory, she couldn't find anything. Maybe she had dreamed of the current scene and forgot about it after waking up... After all, this kind of thing happens often, Lian Xi didn't think about it anymore, she was too tired...
Ying Yu Guang saw Lian Xi on the balcony looking at him, subconsciously raised his head, and indeed Lian Xi was staring intently at his every move with a smile. Seeing this scene, Ying felt warm in his heart, thinking of the nightmare game, Ying secretly smiled to himself...
Actually, when Shadow just said those words, he even felt embarrassed himself, but later on, Shadow deeply felt that Lian Xi also had some feelings for him, at least some good feelings. So Shadow decided not to be shy anymore and not to bury this feeling in his heart...
At this point, a scene suddenly popped into Xing's mind where he had gone to the Death Tomb to exchange cold information at the beginning of the game. He almost forgot something so important...
As the saying goes, a friend's wife is not to be trifled with. Ling Xi might have been his cold girlfriend after all, even if she was already dead. The shadow in his heart still had a knot. Moreover, the profession of an assassin does not allow for family or companions...
Shadows began to entangle again. Although there had been no assassination tasks for a while, it didn't mean that would always be the case. If one day his identity were to implicate Lian Xi, he would definitely regret it bitterly, and by then it would already be too late... If he chose to leave the organization, they would definitely send someone to hunt him down like they did with Leng, and Lian Xi's life would also be in danger...
At this moment, the shadow can be said to be in a precarious situation... The nightmare game, the killer organization, the assassination mission, and also Ling Xi... One wrong step not only means death for oneself, but also Ling Xi will pay the price of life.
