Chapter 8 He had long been fed up with such days

  Memories:

  Two years ago, Western Jin. Rain City Town.

  The sky was dark and the heavy rain continued to fall, accompanied by strong winds. The trees outside were blown about wildly, while on the wall a yellowed calendar automatically flipped page after page.

  Liang Chen sat at the desk doing his homework, perhaps it was too windy, and the rain blew into the house. He gradually felt his arm getting wet, and involuntarily put down his pen, wanting to close the door.

  "Whoosh—bang." The fierce wind swept over, and the eaves above suddenly came crashing down, splashing mud and water everywhere. Rain mixed with wind slapped against his body and face, and Liang Chen narrowed his eyes.

  "What's going on now!" A loud, indistinct roar suddenly came from inside the house, as if awakened by the outside noise. Liang Chen furrowed his brow and didn't make a sound, struggling to close the door, and the room fell silent again. But soon, the man's angry roars started again.

  "You bastard! You actually tied me up in bed, don't think I won't be able to hit you just because of this!"

  Can totally imagine a man struggling in bed, panting and out of breath.

  Li Chen seemed to not hear, walked into the kitchen with a cold face, turned on the faucet and washed his muddy arms, the cool water flowed down his arm, the sound of the water was loud, and the man's shouting also stopped unknowingly.

  Li Chen didn't notice, his eyes were unfocused as he stared outside, the whole world was filled with rainwater, overflowing on the ground, even foaming up white bubbles.

  "You scoundrel!" Just because of this momentary lapse in attention, the man rushed into the kitchen, grabbed a cleaver and chopped over.

  Liang Chen heard the sound and dodged to the side, a cold sensation swept across her shoulder, the sound of skin tearing echoed in her ears, and then red blood began to seep out, soon, her entire shoulder was stained red.

  The man's eyes were bloodshot, and his body still had the remnants of a broken rope: "Do you think this can tie me up? You damned rabbit, I'm going to beat you to death today!"

  The man raised his cleaver and chopped down with force, like a mad dog that had lost its will.

  Li Chen didn't dodge again, staring coldly at the man in front of him. He was tired of this life anyway, so he might as well die. But fate played a trick on him - the man's knife missed him and instead slipped under his feet, grazing his ear before landing with a thud on the chopping board.

  Liang Chen gazed at the kitchen knife with a mocking smile, "Even if I stand still and let you chop me, can't you even hit me?"

  The man was about to pull out the knife, when Liang Chen suddenly grabbed the rope around the man's neck and pulled it tight. The man let out a loud roar, and the vegetable knife in his hand fell to the ground. He lunged at Liang Chen several times, but Liang Chen dodged behind him, wrapped his arm around the man's neck, and pulled him backward.

  He didn't want to strangle him, he just wanted to tie him up again. However, the man did not compromise and instead reached out to grab Liang Chen's throat. In an instant, both of them glared at each other fiercely, with a terrifying atmosphere filling the air.

  It was like a tug-of-war, the man was gradually being strangled to the point of suffocation, and Liang Chen's face also began to turn blue. The man's hands were wildly grasping, and one of them broke something off, which was the pendant around Liang Chen's neck.

  Liang Chen's attention was suddenly drawn, and as soon as he let go, he wanted to pick it up. The man who had just regained his breath stepped on Liang Chen's hand with one foot, trampling the pendant together fiercely. The pendant shattered, and the fragments pierced deep into the skin, causing blood to flow profusely. Liang Chen's face turned pale in an instant, completely forgetting the pain, only feeling hatred! Hatred for the man who killed his mother and even wanted to erase his last thoughts!

  He let out a loud shout, picked up the vegetable knife from the ground and hacked it towards the man with great force. At the same time, he was also flung to one side by the man, his head heavily hitting the wall, and he fainted.

  On the white wall, a shocking bloodstain was left behind.
