"This pair of purple glass high heels is really beautiful and elegant, sigh! If it was for me, how good would it be?”
Liu Zijian stared at the pair of purple glass shoes in the shoe box that were specially made for her by Love Hotel. She could not move her eyes away for a long time. She was afraid that she would dirty it, so when she got the glass shoes, she didn't dare to try them on and hurriedly put them away.
Moreover, this pair of purple glass shoes was not something she could have.
In fact, with her financial resources, she could not stay in this five-star hotel located in a prime location. But fortunately, she had made friends with a daughter of a prestigious family with an outstanding family background and external conditions when she was in school. In order to celebrate her birthday, this friend had specially booked a suite for her at the Love Hotel so that she could enjoy the luxurious life of a rich family.
In the beginning, she refused desperately. However, her friend used the excuse that she had already paid up and pushed her into the fire bed. Uh, no, into this magnificent restaurant.
Therefore, not only did she enjoy the luxurious life of a five-star hotel, but she also happened to encounter a special event organized by the Love Hotel, which was to select twelve female guests from the guests who had stayed there and give them a pair of glass shoes. And she was one of them.
Not only that, but the Grand Hotel of Love had also specially invited a prophet to help them predict their future partners. According to the tall, handsome, and young Master Jin, her partner would be a man born at Si Shi, and they met through the pair of purple glass shoes in her hands.
Ha, if she believed in such a prophecy, then she would be an idiot!
Liu Zijian was not a child. She was immune to this kind of fairytale love that was similar to Cinderella.
Moreover, she had no intention of keeping the shoes for herself. After all, she had only encountered such a " good thing " by chance. Unless…! The friend who invited her here was willing to part with her, or else this pair of purple glass shoes must be returned to its original owner.
Liu Zijian's hands tightened around the shoe box. She sat in the courtyard and looked up at the Grand Love Hotel, which looked especially splendid at night, for a long time before she walked out of the hotel.
Just as Liu Zijian left, two men in black, wearing sunglasses and looking extremely nervous and terrified, rushed out of Love Hotel.
Vaguely, one could hear the two men in black mumbling,""Where is that woman? What about the woman with the purple glass shoes…"
"I don't need it."
Tang Qianqian gracefully sipped the flower tea that the butler had served, not even looking at the purple glass shoes in Liu Zijian's hands.
"But this pair of glass shoes is really beautiful.”
Liu Zijian did not mind Tang Qianqian's cold attitude because that was how they interacted.
"No matter how beautiful she is, I can't wear it. You can take it back.”
"You're right." This pair of purple glass shoes was completely custom-made according to her size. Even if Nancy took it, she would not be able to wear it. Moreover, if Nancy liked it, she would order a pair for herself. She would not ask for it at all.”
"You're welcome." Tang Qianqian finally smiled.
Liu Zijian smiled as well.
She had always known that Nancy did not really want to be friends with her. She would only smile faintly when she expressed her gratitude to Nancy. Perhaps Nancy liked the feeling of superiority that came from being flattered?
To her, saying the word " thank you " wouldn't make her lose a piece of flesh. Moreover, she had also obtained a pair of glass shoes that she loved very much.
Even though she no longer had any fantasies about love, it was still a good thing to imagine herself becoming Cinderella in a fairy tale world while she was working. At least, it could relieve her body and mind.
"Other than this pair of shoes, did you encounter anything interesting?”
"There is, but this isn't anything interesting.”Liu Zijian closed the box, a faint smile appearing on her lips.
"Can you tell me?"
When Liu Zijian's smiling face entered Tang Qianqian's eyes, her face twisted slightly. However, Tang Qianqian concealed it very well.
"Actually, it's nothing much. It's just that the restaurant invited a prophet to predict the future for each of us.”Liu Zijian joked.
"Oh, what did the prophet say about you?”
From Tang Qianqian's slightly raised tone, she seemed to be quite interested in this topic.
"It's nothing! Men like him were everywhere on the streets.”For some reason, she suddenly didn't want to reveal too much.
Tang Qianqian obviously didn't believe it.
However, since Liu Zijian had no intention of revealing more of her attitude, she did not press further.
"It's very late." Since she couldn't get anything out of him, Tang Qianqian's expression turned cold.
"Goodbye then." Liu Zijian, who had wanted to leave for a long time, immediately held the shoe box tightly and stood up to leave.
When she returned to the rented apartment, which was an old apartment that was at least twenty years old, Liu Zijian could not wait to look around for a place to place the pair of purple glass shoes.
Just put it under the bed?
No, it was better to put it in the shoe cabinet.
No, no, he might as well put it in the most eye-catching place so that he could see it at any time.
However, Liu Zijian hesitated when she saw the open wardrobe.
This seemed too dangerous. After all, she lived in an old apartment. She did not want to lose her beloved glass shoes when she was out working. Eh, that's right! Why didn't she hide in…
She didn't know why she was so excited. It was just a pair of glass shoes, not a million dollars in cash. Why did she have to hide it so hard? But for some reason, she was so excited.
Phew! After busying herself for a long time, she finally hid it well.
Liu Zijian lay on the bed, hugging the quilt as she stared at the mottled wall with a silly smile.
Ha! Master of Prophecy, a man born at Si Shi, purple glass shoes…
Liu Zijian went to sleep with excitement, mixed emotions, and a dreamy feeling.
After an unknown amount of time!
Liu Zijian was sure that she had fallen asleep, but the strange thing was, why did she suddenly wake up?
In the pitch-black room, only a small lamp on the left side of the bed kept her from falling into complete darkness. When she opened her slightly misty eyes, she naturally looked to the left, but strangely, her neck stiffened before she could turn it halfway.
Someone was there!
This powerful shock and fear immediately awakened her chaotic consciousness.
Although she tried her best to deny this possibility, she could not help but feel a chill run down her spine when she saw a pair of sharp eyes staring at her.
The " person " was indeed on the other side of her bed.
Liu Zijian swallowed a mouthful of saliva with difficulty and her face turned to the right. At the same time, a cold palm was placed on her slender neck without any warning, and it was so tight that it was enough to control her life.
Liu Zijian's eyes widened in horror as she stared at the menacing male face that she could not recognize.
Panic and fear churned in her stomach at the same time. However, Liu Zijian did not lose her mind and shout or struggle. In order to hold her breath, she forced herself to calm down. However, the violent rise and fall of her chest and the rapid pulse at the side of her neck had long revealed her most primitive fear.
Life was really unpredictable.
She remembered that not long ago, she was still smiling when she fell asleep. How could she be strangled to death by this mysterious man who appeared out of nowhere in just a few hours? Yes, she really shouldn't be thinking about how she would die at this critical moment of life and death, but other than thinking like this, what else could she do?
Hmph, what prophecy master!
If he could predict that she would be in trouble tonight, she might die more willingly.
However, before she died, she had a small regret because she had not worn the purple glass shoes. Sigh, what a pity!
"Where are those shoes?"
Liu Zijian could not help but shiver when she felt a sudden warmth in her ears, accompanied by an emotionless voice.
However, the next second, she was confused.
He actually asked where the shoes were?
"Where are the shoes?"
The same cold voice entered her ears again.
Other than fear, there was also a hint of surprise in her eyes.
The shoes that this man was talking about, could it be that he was referring to her purple glass shoes?
No! It was absolutely impossible.
She had just gotten her hands on those glass shoes, and they were shoes that only she could wear. What did he want them for?
She suddenly found it difficult to breathe.
She closed her eyes tightly and cried out in sadness. At the same time, she finally regained her self-protection consciousness. She tried hard to pull away the hand that was tightly wrapped around her neck, but no matter how hard she tried, his cold and ruthless five fingers were still firmly wrapped around her slender neck.
Liu Zijian felt like she was about to die.
The moment before death was about to arrive, she felt that she could breathe again.
" Cough..." While desperately sucking in fresh air, she coughed violently.
Just as she felt that she was alive again, she realized that the crisis had not been resolved because that cold hand was still firmly placed on her neck.
"I'll ask you one last time. Where are your shoes?”The man's eyes, which were shining with a strange light, suddenly approached her and looked straight at her.
She knew that if she didn't answer him now, she might never have the chance to speak again in this life.
"W-what shoes?" Perhaps, he was not asking about the pair of glass shoes that she was thinking about.
"Bo! Li! Shoes." The mysterious man spoke in a very gentle tone.
Liu Zijian's face turned even paler than before.
Did she hear wrongly? A grown man actually wanted to snatch the glass shoes from her?
"I, I didn't…didn't…"
Even she couldn't believe what she had just said. Heavens, could a pair of glass shoes be more important than his life?
Quickly change your words and say yes! But she just couldn't say it. She just couldn't say it!
An overly intimate yet extremely threatening warm breath suddenly blew on her face. Liu Zijian gasped, thinking that her life was coming to an end.
However, he did not. The five fingers did not tighten again.
The moment Liu Zijian's fear subsided, she was stunned by his next move.
The hand that was originally on her neck pinched her small round body without warning, making her feel like crying.
She had never been violated before, and now, she was being held tightly by a mysterious man. This made her even more frightened than when she was strangled just now.
For no reason, a terrifying thought of rape and murder filled her head.
"Are you afraid?" The man's cold and deep voice clearly contained a hint of a strange smile.
" Afraid…" She did not want to play the hero.
"Is that so?"
Although there was a layer of pajamas between them, she was still trapped between his fingers. Suddenly, he pinched her with his long fingers. Liu Zijian's body trembled and a painful moan escaped from her mouth.
"Let, let go."
Liu Zijian's forehead was covered in sweat. Her fair cheeks had turned slightly red from his affectionate kneading.
If this continued, she would really scream without caring about the consequences.
"Tell me and I'll let go."
"Really?" She was very impressed that she could still ask such an idiotic question at a time like this.
Because no matter if it was true or false, she could not resist at all.
"Of course it's true."
In order to win her trust, the man reduced his strength to the minimum. However, to Liu Zijian, it was still a threat.
"That, that pair of shoes is in…in the bottom drawer of the dressing table.”After taking a few deep breaths, she finally spoke through her trembling lips.
"You better not lie."
The man's soft and slightly emotional voice reverberated into the depths of Liu Zijian's soul. She could not help but tense up and tremble.
Liu Zijian knew very well that his warning was not a bluff. In other words, if she failed, she might…So, she had to go all out.
Why was she so obsessed with a pair of lifeless glass shoes? Perhaps it was because from the moment Qianqian was willing to give up the glass shoes to her, the purple glass shoes belonged to Liu Zijian. No one, including this man who could take her life at any time, had the right to take it away.
If she was lucky enough to live until dawn, perhaps she would think about it again.
The man's hand slowly moved away from Liu Zijian's chest. However, before he moved away, he did not forget to pinch her round body as a warning.
Liu Zijian could not care less about the sensory stimulation coming from her chest. As he walked towards the dressing table, she quietly sat up and slowly reached her hand under the bed.
Of course, the glass shoes were not in the drawer.
Therefore, when Liu Zijian sensed the man's anger heading toward her, she swung the baseball bat in her hand at the man.
The room fell into a suffocating silence.
The only thing that could prove that there was still a breath in this frozen space was Liu Zijian's rapid panting after she had suppressed her breath.
Would he kill her?
Because she was currently half-kneeling on the bed, her hands were raised high with the bat that was already halfway through the swing. She had no choice but to think so.
Her wrists were easily restrained by his large palms. She had already lost her only chance to beat this man away. Liu Zijian felt as if she had fallen from a high-temperature furnace into an icehouse that was thirty degrees below zero. Her entire body was freezing.
"Ah!" The sharp pain from her wrist made her cry out in pain, and the baseball bat that she could no longer hold fell into the man's hand.
That bat was very likely to be his murder weapon.
"Because of your courage, I can give you another chance.”
The man's low and hoarse voice that carried a smile deepened Liu Zijian's fear.
Suddenly, the man's hand loosened and Liu Zijian, who had lost her support, immediately lay limply on the bed. Unable to exert any strength, she could only calmly face the tragedy that was about to happen.
Forget it, forget it…She had nothing to worry about anyway.
"Where are the shoes?"
As the man approached, the side of the bed suddenly caved in, causing Liu Zijian, who was buried in the quilt, to close her eyes helplessly. She no longer made any final struggles.
However, his next move made her struggle.
His five fingers were slowly stroking her long hair. Occasionally, his cold fingertips would touch the sensitive back of her neck. His fingertips slid down her back along her hair. His hand was even resting on the back of her head, gently massaging it.
" I…I threw it away…" Liu Zijian replied as she closed her eyes even tighter.
"Ha!"
The man's laughter was so similar to that of a demon trying to seduce someone's soul that she could not help but feel dizzy.
"Not only do you have courage, but you are also not afraid of death.”The man's slightly languid tone had somehow been gradually added with some emotion, and it actually became exceptionally pleasant to the ear.
At this moment, even if his voice was like a pillow to Liu Zijian, it would turn into thousands of fine thorns the moment he said it, leaving her nowhere to hide.
"However, I hate people who are not afraid of death.”After the man felt her trembling, he continued to say ambiguously," But you're an exception. Because you're beautiful and quiet, I plan to…" The unfinished words carried a hint of evil intent that seeped into her ears.
Liu Zijian immediately understood what he meant.
Therefore, she decided to tell him the location of the glass shoes. She tried her best to squeeze the words into her throat.
Just as she was forced to lie on her back instead of lying down, the sound of a violent knock on the iron door rang out.
" Miss, Miss Liu…you haven't paid your rent yet…" Outside the house, the drunk voice of the middle-aged Ojisan could be heard.
Liu Zijian had always hated this landlord who was often drunk and came to demand rent from time to time. However, at this moment, she really had the urge to hug Ojisan tightly. However, before that, she wanted to see if this man who intended to harm her would let her off.
Obviously, the man decided to stop.
"Cherish your good luck this time. I'll come looking for you again.”Before he left, the stranger coldly said something harsh the moment Liu Zijian was about to send out a distress message.
Liu Zijian broke out in a cold sweat because of his warning.
" Hey, this month's rent is 6,000 yuan. Hurry up and give it to me…"
What should he do? He actually said that he was going to look for her again!
Liu Zijian fell into a state of extreme panic. If not for the landlord's constant clamoring, she would not have woken up immediately.
Liu Zijian stumbled out of the room and turned on all the lights in the room. When she pushed open the iron door, she suddenly realized where the man had come from in the dark.
"Where's the money?" When Ojisan reached out to ask for rent, he even burped.
"O-Ojisan, did you see someone leave from here?”
"Uh…there's no one. Oh right, next month's rent is going to increase by 1000 yuan.”
When Liu Zijian heard that the man did not leave through the door, she fell into a trance again. She closed the iron door in a daze and did not notice that the landlord was going to raise the rent.
Suddenly, Liu Zijian felt a chill. She turned her body abruptly and stared at the open window.
Heavens! This was the fourth floor!
She mustered up her remaining courage and slowly walked to the window. When she looked out of the window, there was no one on the dark street. Shua! She quickly closed the window and sat on the old sofa in the living room, staring at the window for the whole night.# Review: 1314mx Time:1025201810:12AM#
