On the bustling streets, there were all kinds of people with hurried expressions and carefree expressions. However, Nan Pingxuan was not in the mood to admire them because her eldest miss was waiting for someone, and that person actually made her late by nearly half an hour.
Suddenly, the impatience on her face disappeared and was replaced by excitement.
"Crimson Moon! Here." Nanping Xuanren waved his hand.
A slender woman with waist-length hair also waved at her and rushed toward her.
"I'm sorry! Dazzle, I'm really sorry for being so late, it's really…"
Before she could finish, Nanping Xuanren waved at her." It's Xiaoxing, isn't it?”
Yin Feiyue took a breath, patted her cheeks that were pink from running, and nodded apologetically.
Nanping was famous for her fiery temper, but she was helpless when she met Yin Feiyue.
"Fei, your burden is too heavy! I have to work during the day and help your sister take care of Xiaoxing at night. Now, she won't even let you go on a holiday. She's really too much.”Nanping Xuanren pulled her and complained.
Yin Feiyue smiled and didn't answer.
Everyone who knew them, from their primary school classmates to the newcomers in society, always had the same question. How could the passionate Nanping Xuanren become good friends with the weak Yin Feiyue?
When they walked into the teahouse they frequented most, the waiter quickly recognized them and kindly led them to their most frequent seats.
From the outside, the Pavilion of Pleasure could only be regarded as an old courtyard, not even a historical site. However, what attracted people was its mysteriousness.
The courtyard was divided into four gardens: plum, orchid, bamboo, and chrysanthemum. Each had its own characteristics, and the one they sat most often was the orchid garden.
It was said that the flowers and plants in the garden were personally planted by the owner of the Pavilion of Pleasure, and the elegant ink paintings on the walls were also done by the owner. Why was it just hearsay? This was because the owner of the Loft of Pleasure had never shown up, not even the person in charge of the teahouse.
As soon as they sat down, the waiter quickly served drinks. Yin Feiyue couldn't stand the thirst. She took a sip of the cold orange tea to relieve the heat.
"Actually, my sister also has her own difficulties. Besides, Xiaoxing is so cute.”
"Yeah, it's pitiful that no one loves you!" Nanping Xuanren said sarcastically. Then, she realized that she was being too honest. She stuck out her tongue and said apologetically,"I'm sorry. You know me. You also know that Xiaoxing's disability is the main reason for your sister's divorce, and it's also the reason why your sister doesn't like to see her.”
Yin Feiyue sighed and looked helpless. "Don't talk about me. Tell me about you. I saw the newspaper. Are you really going to marry into a rich family? Why didn't I hear you mention it?"
"Humph! Wasn't it just an old-fashioned excuse? Something about relying on business marriage to successfully expand the company's territory.”Nanping Dazzler replied angrily.
"My mother even brought out some lousy lines like she was thinking about my lifelong happiness. To be honest, with my looks, do you think I won't be able to get married? With my ability, why would I be afraid of not being able to expand the company's business?”She stuck out her voluptuous breasts.
Yin Feiyue looked at Nanping Xuanren carefully and had to admit that she was qualified to say such proud words.
Her graceful appearance had always been the target of men's pursuit.
In fact, Yin Feiyue herself didn't know that she herself had great charm. Compared to Nanping, she was even more charming.
If Nanping's dazzling people were said to be seductive, then Yin Feiyue was pure and fresh; If Nanping Xuanren represented fiery red, then Yin Feiyue represented elegant white.
Her long, straight and shiny hair, snow-white skin, bright and spirited eyes, and her slender figure already met the standards of most men. Not to mention her quiet and delicate temperament, which would stimulate the desire to protect the opposite sex. If she hadn't always been hiding behind Nan Ping's dazzling people, it wouldn't have been difficult for her to discover that many eyes were actually chasing after her.
"I've read about him in Business Weekly. Without the help of financial groups and political forces, he was able to make a name for himself in the business world in just five years. There was even a photo attached to it. It was quite good-looking. No wonder Auntie chose him as her son-in-law.”Yin Feiyue voiced her opinion.
The Nanping family was a prominent family in Taiwan. Although they no longer advocated the concept of matching families, it was undeniable that women were still weak in this era. Nanping Xuanren was an only child. Although she was capable enough, her father Nanping Hong and mother Zhou Mingyue still hoped to use a stronger force to consolidate Nanping Group.
"Anyway, I won't agree to this marriage.”Nanping Xuanren said firmly. What a joke! She was a woman of the new era. If she listened to her parents 'orders and got married, it would be strange if she didn't become a laughing stock.
Yin Feiyue shrugged. She knew she would answer like this.
After chatting with Nanping Xuanren for an afternoon, Yin Feiyue returned to the rented apartment with satisfaction.
As soon as she entered, she found Xiaoxing curled up on the sofa, sleeping.
Sighing, she patted Xiaoxing and said softly,""Xiaoxing, Xiaoxing! Get up, you'll catch a cold if you sleep like this.”
The little one on the sofa moved her body and reached out to touch her.
"Auntie, is that you?"
Yin Feiyue frowned and grabbed her shaking hand." It's Auntie. Why are you sleeping on the sofa? Have you eaten? Where's mommy?"
Although she didn't think she would get a satisfactory answer, she still asked out of habit.
As expected, Gong Xiaoxing, who was still sleepy, shook her head. " Mommy isn't back yet. I'm scared to be alone at home, and I don't know what time it is, so…" Her voice gradually became softer.
Yin Feiyue scolded herself secretly. She should have expected this.
"I'm sorry! I forgot that your mommy is working overtime today. Bear with it for a while. I'll give you some food.”
After a while, the steaming hot and fragrant noodles were served on the table and entered Gong Xiaoxing's stomach.
"Auntie, it's delicious!" Gong Xiaoxing burped and smiled sweetly in satisfaction.
After washing Xiaoxing up and coaxing her to go to bed, Yin Feiyue realized that it was already past ten o'clock, but her sister was still not back.
Unconsciously, she sighed again.
Xiaoxing was afraid that she would not be able to see this colorful world. How cruel was the heavens to make this little girl suffer a pain that even adults could not accept!
Suddenly, a loud clang woke Yin Feiyue up from her nap on the sofa.
It turned out to be Moongazer Serpent who had just entered the door. Yin Feiyue looked at the watch on her wrist. It was already past twelve o'clock.
As soon as Yin Wangyue came in and saw Crimson Moon sitting on the sofa, he knew that she was waiting for her.
"Why aren't you asleep yet? Did you forget that I have the key?" She shook the key in her hand.
Yin Feiyue suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness." Sister, don't you think it's very late?”
A trace of guilt flashed in Yin Wangyue's eyes, but he immediately replied. "Aiyo, you know how busy the company is. I have to work overtime. Anyway, you're at home.”she said.
Yin Feiyue suddenly realized that perhaps Xuan Ren was right. Moongazer Serpent was no longer her understanding elder sister.
"Sister, Xiaoxing is already seven years old. Aren't you going to find a good school for her? She had already lost half of the race at the starting point. Do you want her to lose forever?”
No matter how good-tempered a person was, there would be times when they could not help but get angry.
"Aiya, don't make it sound so serious. It's just finding a school! Alright, alright, I'll definitely do it in two days, definitely!”Yawning, Yin Wangyue looked at the clock on the wall." It's already past one o'clock. I'm tired. I'm going to sleep first. Let's talk another day!"”
Watching the Moongazer Serpent escape into her room, Yin Feiyue could only hang her shoulders helplessly. It seemed that she was destined to lose sleep again tonight.
The rustling wind was mixed with a drizzle, and there were even a few muffled thunders in the distance. The sound of it on the Phantom Lake was really strange.
Through the bottom of the lake that was invisible to the naked eye, through the rainbow, what entered his eyes was actually a vast land!! This was the Demon Territory.
Here, two-thirds of the land was desert, and the remaining one-third was divided into five cities ruled by the Demon King.
The former Demon King was called Ge Lie. Due to his gentle personality, he had also caused the ghost territories adjacent to the Demon City to plunder without any restraint.
800 years later, the Old Demon King passed the throne to his only son!! Ge Yan.
Ge Yan's style was completely opposite to his father's. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was Satan.
He had long, dark and unruly hair, eyes that were often provocative but deep and spirited, a tall body, and lips that often revealed a sly smile.
His appearance was already very similar to Satan, but the most convincing thing was his ability to control.
As soon as Ge Yan took office, he used a strict method to kill all the intruders mercilessly, causing the Ghost Realm to not dare to cross the border and disappear from the Demon Territory.
He even trained a Black Flame Army to protect the safety of Shanghai without fear of death.
At this moment, two groups of people were quarreling in the main hall of Blackhot Palace. The black man sitting on the dragon throne had a mocking expression on his face, watching everything with a smile.
"Black General, your duty is to protect the king. How can you bring up such a dangerous thing as attacking Ghost City! King! Please listen to this old minister and don't cause any more trouble.”Elder Lu Da said worriedly.
"Moreover, you have already exhausted a lot of your vitality in order to recover the lost territory. If anything happens again, how can I face High King Ge Lie?”
In the Otherworld, the stronger one's magic power was, the higher one's status would be. There was no so-called identity card. People were born with the same hair color and eyes as their parents.
In this place, color was the standard to determine one's identity.
The slaves were white, the civilians were red, the officials were blue, and the highest was of course the Demon King's Black Luo.
At this moment, the one who was arguing with the elder was the general who was guarding Blackhot Palace!! Black Crimson Flame was just like his name. His appearance and temper were just like his name. He was burly, powerful, and fiery. Unfortunately, he did not have a brain.
At this moment, they were arguing over whether or not they should go on an expedition to Ghost City.
"Elder, you're too old, you don't have the guts anymore. You're afraid of those brats, but I'm not! As long as I make a move, I'll definitely be able to kill that rotten ghost.”Black Crimson Flame patted his chest hard, as if he wanted to use his own strength to emphasize his promise. The halberd in his hand waved hard in the air.
These words made Lu Da so angry that he was blowing his beard and glaring. "The King's safety is not something that you, the Black General, can guarantee with a pat on the chest. If something really happens, can you take responsibility? Can you take responsibility?"
After all, Black Crimson Flame was a boor. He didn't know how to respond to him.
Lu Da took advantage of the moment when he was rendered speechless and quickly chased after him, saying,
"Last time, in order to take back the lost land, the King led the Black Flame Army to take the lead. Although it was a complete victory, it also consumed a lot of magic power. If they attacked rashly and something unexpected happened, what would they do?”
It seemed that the victor had been decided.
The man on the dragon throne suddenly shifted his body. This action attracted everyone's attention, including the two people who were quarreling.
"Lu Da, you seem to doubt this king's ability and are certain that I will lose.”His voice was devoid of warmth, and it came from his thin lips that carried a faint smile. It was strange, and it was impossible to guess his heart.
The elders hurriedly knelt down, and they were so scared that they broke out in cold sweat.
"This old minister does not dare! It's just that…it's just that the Ghost King has already surrendered and your magic power has been sealed. There's really no need to mobilize so many people to go on an expedition! This…"
His eyes that were filled with interest suddenly turned cold, and the smile on his face disappeared.
"Lu Da, do you think I would be stupid enough to let my opponent make a comeback? Besides, the Ghost King has hurt many of our people.”
Without waiting for the elder to reply, Ge Yan immediately concluded,""Crimson Flame!"
"Yes!" Black Crimson Flame was already on standby.
"Prepare the army and set off in three days. There's no need to discuss further!”With a wave of his hand, Ge Yan disappeared from the hall.
Humans were often foolish enough to think that they could defeat nature!
Yin Feiyue really wanted to send this sentence to the weather announcer of the TV station. He clearly said that today was a good day, and he even said that it would be the highest temperature of the year.
And the result? Not only was it raining heavily, but the temperature had also dropped.
Achoo! She could not help but curse again.
It was bad enough that he was drenched. Now, he must have caught a cold.
He was going to give a meeting report tomorrow. Was he going to use this hoarse voice to explain to the executives?
I really hope that the cold will disappear on its own!
Suddenly, Yin Feiyue had a thought. A warm current flowed through her body, and all the discomfort she felt just now disappeared.
It was like this again! Ever since she was young, she had discovered that she had a special ability. As long as she felt uncomfortable, she would recover her health with a little meditation. It was a pity that this magical power was only directed at her body. Otherwise, Xiaoxing's eyes would have had hope, and she would not have suffered so much.
magical realm
Ge Yan officially launched a series of intense revenge operations.
As soon as he left the Blackhot Palace, he immediately approached the Ghost Domain at an unexpected speed.
Along the way, he killed all ghosts he met. Just as he said, he would not give the ghost clan a chance to counterattack.
"King, all the ghost clansmen who have crossed the border have been mostly eliminated. Should we set off to return to the Demon Palace?”
Although they had fought several battles, Black Crimson Flame still looked energetic. He was indeed worthy of being the general beside the Demon King.
"Order everyone to pack up. I'm going to Phantom Lake to take a look!”
Although he had won the battle, Ge Yan still had a cold expression on his face, as if this victory was not a big deal to him.
"King is going to the Phantom Lake? Then let this subordinate follow you!"
"No need." He waved his hand and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Black Crimson Flame could only rub his nose and go to explain the military matters.
No one could guess the heart of a king!
To him, the King's words were orders and imperial edicts. As long as they obstructed the King, he would do his best to get rid of them.
Day after day, as soon as Yin Feiyue got off work, she had to rush back to the apartment to cook and wash up for Xiaoxing. Finally, she dragged her tired body and stayed up late to finish the unfinished project during the day.
Whoosh! Yin Feiyue heaved a sigh of relief when she finally finished the last page.
For some reason, the new business manager was always dissatisfied with her and often found fault with her. Fortunately, she was not afraid of fire. After a few times, nothing happened.
He looked at the clock on the wall. It was already three o'clock, but the Moongazer Serpent had not returned!
She was getting more and more overboard. Sometimes, she would even stay out all night and party. Could it be that…she really did not want Xiaoxing anymore?
The soft sound of the door opening pulled Yin Feiyue's thoughts back to reality.
He saw Yin Wangyue tiptoeing slowly to his room, holding a pair of three-inch high heels in his hand.
Bang! Yin Feiyue turned on the light and the small living room lit up.
The sudden light was a little dazzling. Yin Wangyue narrowed his eyes and was a little surprised when he saw Yin Feiyue.
"Crimson Moon, why aren't you asleep yet? Yo, it's already three o'clock. Didn't I tell you not to wait for the door? Why didn't he listen? Really."
"Moongazer Serpent! You disappoint me! Are you still worthy of being Xiaoxing's mother?”Yin Feiyue raised her voice and questioned.
Yin Wangyue knew that his good-tempered sister would call her name whenever she was angry.
In fact, she knew that she was wrong, but it was not easy for someone to admit their mistakes.
Yin Wangyue was so angry that he started to blabber.
"Yes, I'm not worthy. Only you are worthy!”She started to shout.
"Sis, don't be like this. You'll wake Xiaoxing up.”If Xiaoxing heard this, she would be very sad.
"I must wake her up and let her know that all the misfortune I have encountered is caused by her. And Gong Huaiyuan, you're a big bastard! She actually blamed me for her daughter's blind mistake.”
Yin Feiyue walked closer to stop her sister, only to find that she reeked of alcohol. "You're drunk. Stop talking." She reached out to help her sister, but she was knocked off.
Yin Wangyue leaned on the sofa unsteadily." Why can't I say it? I'll just say that she's the one who caused my divorce. She was the one who caused me to become an abandoned wife and lose everything!”His originally noble face instantly turned ferocious.
"Sis!" Yin Feiyue grabbed her arm angrily. " How can you push all the blame onto Xiaoxing…" She quickly shut her mouth because Xiaoxing was standing at the door in her pajamas, her eyes full of tears.
It seemed that she had heard everything.
"Xiaoxing, listen to me!"
Yin Feiyue wanted to comfort her, but Gong Xiaoxing covered her ears, turned around, and rushed out of the door.
"Xiaoxing!" Yin Feiyue hurriedly chased after him.
Yin Wangyue was stunned for a moment. He woke up from his hangover and realized that what he said was wrong. He followed after her.
The invisible Gong Xiaoxing was running wildly without any goal. She only knew that if she didn't vent her anger, she would go crazy!
Originally, she wanted to get up to drink water because she was thirsty, but she unexpectedly knew that she had made her mother hate her.
In an instant, her world collapsed, and her heart shattered.
Yin Feiyue chased after Xiaoxing. When she saw her rushing to the middle of the road, she quickened her pace.
"No!" A fast red sports car was speeding toward Gong Xiaoxing.
Yin Feiyue pushed Xiaoxing away subconsciously. All she could think of was not to let Xiaoxing get hurt.
In the next second, she felt herself fly out. Strangely, she did not feel any pain.
In a trance, she was still worried about what would happen to Xiaoxing without her.
Darkness had officially claimed her.#
