Zyair, a person who careless about everything and anything, and someone who have a great temper– was tricked by his lover into playing a certain game. 

Qantas, who only cares about one person– who escape without second thought– finally coaxed this person to play a certain game.

One day...

Qantas: "I can't play today, so play by yourself."

Zyair: "...fine!" 

Although relucant, Zyair still went to play by himself. 

Then, Zyair with wide eyes, looked at his avatar that was lying at the glass floor, bath with its own blood, while being gnawed by countless mice.Then looked at Cinderella laughing hysterically with her gorgeous gown and glass slipper. 

Zyair: "??!!" Bloody hell!! How did he die?!

Suddenly...

His screen went black.

And he felt a sudden hard thump from his chest and passed out.

When he opened his eyes again, Zyair almost erupted like a volcano. 

But Nix, a senior player came to him and reached out his hand. 

Grinning, Nix said: "You're interesting. From now on you're my new friend."

Zyair fuming red with anger: "F*ck off! Don't you dare touch me with that filthy hands of yours!! I don't need your help!! And erase that grin, it's annoying."

Still grinning, Nix decided with a nod: "that's fine too, I'll follow you instead."

After how many games they played.

Zyair who's hair was rising from intense anger: "Here you are! I finally found you, motherf*cker!!"

Qantas who finally appeared, smile brightly at Zyair: "How are you? Did you enjoy playing alone? It's fine now, it took a while but I'm not going anywhere anymore."

Zyair who was immediately coaxed: "Really?"

Qantas: "Yeah. So don't escape from me, ever again."

The neglected Nix: "hey! Are you finished? He didn't play alone, mind you. He played with me~ and I enjoyed it a lot~ and~ I don't mind playing with you too~ want to try threeso–"

Nix looked down and saw his torso being bind by many red strings. Then he look back and saw someone's expressionless face.

Yayoi: "Dare to say more?"

Nix erase his flirtatious grin, he became quiet. A soft smile appeared in his face: "Come here. I need a hug."

While hugging Yayoi, Nix suddenly reminded: "But the way, Zyair. If you still want to beat me up, I will welcome you anytime.

Confused, Zyair went to asked Qantas.

Qantas: "It's alright. You should forget it. You won't be able to beat him anyway."

Zyair: "oh." ಠ益ಠ

Love? 
What is love? You asked? 
Hm... It's, uh... What is love anyways... Well it's a basic human emotion, yet it is feels so complicated to explain. In my opinion, it's just a temporary feeling that humans harbour, an emotion that can be expressed towards another person as a sign of 'caring' and 'concern' towards them. Even if I said that it's a temporary feeling, it can last for a lifetime... 
Well that's just my opinion. Say, why don't we go for a stroll after I'm done making your body. No?

It's kind of sad that you can't talk yet, let alone, comprehending what I say.

Commencing [Emergency hibernation]

Li Mengxia drank the most among the group. She drank to the extent that her eyes were red and she could not even hold her glass properly. Meanwhile, Gu Xijiu's innate ability was relatively higher, so she was still very conscious.
Li Mengxia felt nauseas. Hence, Gu Xijiu quickly brought her to the washroom.
Long Siye's face was reddish as he sat there idly watching the glass in his hand.
After Li Mengxia had puked a few times, Gu Xijiu fed her a pill to ease her hangover. She shook her head and found herself feeling much better. She finally got a better vision of Gu Xijiu as she blinked her eyes. "Wow! I can't believe that you're better than me at drinking… I've never lost to anyone!"
Gu Xijiu tapped her shoulder as she replied, "Me too, it's just a coincidence."
Li Mengxia refused to surrender. "Let's compete again when we're free!"
"When we have the time."
Again, Li Mengxia shook her head. "You're right. There's chaos everywhere, and so we can't let drinking affect our mission. Strangely enough, I just wanted to have a sip. How did I drink that much?"
Gu Xijiu replied as she glimpsed at Li Mengxia, "Your ability to control yourself is deteriorating."
Li Mengxia was stunned for a short moment and regretfully shook her head. "Perhaps. After all, I've been trying to escape for so long and have not eaten a good meal in a long time. It's hard for me to control myself now that I have gotten the chance to drink. Sigh, I would have been lectured if The Lord knew."
Though the pill was very effective, it was only sufficient to keep her awake. The residues of the alcohol remained in her body. Hence, Li Mengxia swayed here and there when she walked.
It was not appropriate for them to rush back as Li Mengxia was unfit to travel. Hence, Gu Xijiu decided to stay in a hotel tonight and leave tomorrow. She told Li Mengxia about her decision, and it made Li Mengxia regret even more. "The Lord wanted you to return tonight. However, we were forced to delay our departure because of me..."
Gu Xijiu did not care much about it. She looked at the directed audio spell at her waist and thought Di Fuyi must be very busy as she had not heard from him the whole day.
"Xijiu, why don't you send The Lord a message and tell him about the situation here so that he wouldn't get worried?" Li Mengxia suggested.
Gu Xijiu nodded and switched on the directed audio spell. However, there was no response. Had he entered a forbidden area again?
Gu Xijiu had been married to him for eight years. Hence, she knew him quite well. The directed audio spell would not work whenever he entered a forbidden area. He needed to meet many people this time, and there were many things for him to do. Hence, it was possible that he had entered a forbidden area. Therefore, Gu Xijiu was not upset though she could not reach him at the moment.
She returned to the room with Li Mengxia and saw Long Siye unconscious and leaning against the table. Had he fallen asleep?
Li Mengxia's finger tapped on the table in front of him. "Hey, Overlord Long! Overlord Long, wake up!"
Long Siye moved a little and finally lifted his head. He looked slow-witted as his gaze was on both of the ladies. He then focused on Gu Xijiu, and he suddenly sat upright. He accidentally swept the glass that was in front of his arm onto the floor. "Xijiu!" He screamed in shock.
Li Mengxia burst into laughter. "What's so shocking? Are you a Narcolepsy patient? Have you forgotten the people who had drank with you?"
Long Siye slightly closed his eyes, and realized that everything was coming back to him when he opened his eyes again. He smiled awkwardly. "Indeed, I must have had one too many drinks..."
His eyes rapidly glanced around the room before he rubbed his brows. "I must have drunk too much and forgotten where we are now. Come on. We should drink more since we have just reunited!"
Li Mengxia shook her hand. "No, I've had enough. I just threw up. I don't think I can take it anymore."
Long Siye looked at Gu Xijiu. He looked blur as he was probably a little tipsy. "Xijiu, shall we toast with a few more drinks? It has been many years since I last saw you. I have got a lot of things that I want to talk about."
Gu Xijiu answered, "It's very late. I'm tired..."
Long Siye got up from the chair. He must have had too many drinks as he almost tripped while getting up. He cursed himself underneath his breath. Gu Xijiu left a pill on his palm. "I think you've drunk too much. Here you go. Take one first."
Long Siye looked at the pill. It was round and shiny as it rolled in his palm. He narrowed his vision to focus on the pill. "This is a grade seven pill!" His eyes were filled with surprise as he glimpsed at Gu Xijiu.
Li Mengxia smiled. "Are you shocked? Xijiu can now make grade eight pills too. She is…"
However, she did not finish her sentence as Gu Xijiu suddenly sent her an audio message. "Hush, something is wrong with him."
Li Mengxia was slightly stunned, and she stopped talking. However, Long Siye was very keen to know what it was that Li Mengxia was about to tell him. "What's is it?"
Li Mengxia was quick-witted and quickly tried switching topics. She suddenly rubbed her brow. "Ouch! I seem to have gotten a headache! The hangover is horrible…"
She then leaned onto Gu Xijiu. "Xijiu, I feel dizzy…"
Gu Xijiu turned around and said to Long Siye as she supported Li Mengxia with her hands. "Instructor Long, it's late now. I think it's better for me to bring her to a hotel. Let's talk tomorrow, okay?" She then walked out of the room with Li Mengxia.
Long Siye, who was standing behind them, was suddenly enlightened and quickly walked beside them. "The hotel beside the restaurant is quite good. Let me bring you there. I think I need a room for myself as I feel a little dizzy too."
…
Although Long Siye looked a little tipsy, he was relatively conscious. He asked for three rooms as soon as they arrived at the hotel.
Gu Xijiu stopped him. "Three is too many. I can stay with Mengxia in the same room, and we can take care of each other."
Long Siye smiled gently. "Sure."
Their rooms were just next to each other. Long Siye went into his room while Gu Xijiu entered her room with Li Mengxia.
Li Mengxia immediately straightened her body right after they went into the room. She wanted to ask Gu Xijiu all sort of questions. "Xijiu…"
Gu Xijiu quickly placed a finger to her lips and sent her a message at the same time. "Hush, someone might be listening."
Li Mengxia blinked her eyes. As the chief master of Anying Association, she was a smart person. She immediately changed the subject. "Xijiu, I'm sleepy. I'm going to bed first."
She then slumped onto one of the beds and rolled around as though she was drunk. "I am feeling very sleepy."
Gu Xijiu went to wash herself up and then lied down on the other bed.
Li Mengxia could not wait and quickly sent an audio message to her. "What's going on?"
Gu Xijiu replied, "Something is wrong with him. He has turned into someone else."
Li Mengxia was shocked. "Why didn't I feel that something was wrong?"
Gu Xijiu remained silent. After all, she had known Long Siye far longer than Li Mengxia. Furthermore, they had worked together on several occasions before. She knew him very well, and she was also very familiar with all of his body languages. Although Long Siye currently looked the same as the old days, it was only enough to fool those people who did not know him well. However, he could not hide his flaws from Gu Xijiu who was an expert and also knew Long Siye in and out.
For example, Long Siye used to hold his glass with only four fingers, and his thumb would slightly curve backward. However, he held his glass with only three fingers earlier, and his finger was slightly curved forward.
Long Siye's gaze was always calm and sharp. However, his gaze was cold just now as though he wanted to kill someone.
"When did you realize that he had turned into someone else?"
"When we returned from the washroom after your puked."
Li Mengxia frowned. "Do you think he was replaced by someone else while we were away? Did someone disguise themselves as him?" She then shook her head. "How is it possible? He still looked the same."
Li Mengxia was an observant person, and she had a good memory for recognizing people. She would have noticed if someone else had replaced that person, even if that person was a twin. After all, even twins had minor differences between them, let alone someone in disguise.
Gu Xijiu was a somewhat observant person as well. When she began suspecting him, she secretly checked Long Siye's facial features. His eyebrows, his nose, and his lips.
There was a tiny scar the size of a pimple at the end of Long Siye's eyebrow. He also had a light mole on his nose, and a very small line on the helix of his ear. The little finger on his left hand was also slightly longer than his right one. These were some of the few characteristics that others might not have noticed. If someone was disguised as him, they would not be able to follow to the extent of such details. In other words, his body was still the same. However, his soul seemed to have been replaced.
Before this, Long Siye's aura was still the same, but the air was filled with little evil energy. The evil energy felt somewhat familiar. However, she was certain that it was Long Siye who had a drink with them. How was it possible that his soul was replaced? Were there two souls present inside his body?
It did not sound right as Di Fuyi had mentioned before that it was not easy for a soul to reluctantly take over a living body. He also mentioned that two souls could never live together in the same body with the exception that the individual was possessed ever since he was born. Furthermore, it required the owner of the body to agree before the foreign soul could live together with the owner, just like Rong Che.
Mo Zhao had already possessed Rong Che's body ever since he was born. Therefore, Mo Zhao was slowly able to adapt to Rong Che's body and eventually take control of it. It was so tricky for Mo Zhao to take over a kid's body even though he was so powerful. Hence, it was almost impossible for him to take over Long Siye's!
Therefore, what was wrong with him? Was she overreacting? Gu Xijiu could not figure iit out. Hence, she took out her directed audio spell. The night was quiet. It was not only Di Fuyi who had not contacted her back, but the rest had not gotten back to her as well.
She paused for a short moment and tried contacting Di Fuyi. Unfortunately, there was still no response from him. She pondered and tried contacting her brother. However, she was unable to get through to him as well. She tightly clenched her fist that was still holding the spell. Something was wrong!
She tried contacting several other people. However, she could not reach any of them as well. Was her directed audio spell faulty? She pondered for a while before deciding to wake Li Mengxia up. She asked her to try connecting hers.
A moment later, both of them looked at each other as they sat on the bed. Both Li Mengxia and Gu Xijiu's directed audio spells were not reaching anyone!
"Mengxia, could you try connecting to someone else?"
"Alright."
Li Mengxia immediately tried contacting someone else. However, it was the same case as Gu Xijiu. She failed to reach anyone regardless of who she tried to contact.
Gu Xijiu made the directed audio spells. Hence, she took both of them and thoroughly checked the spell. Nothing seemed to be wrong with it. Was there something installed in the hotel that was blocking the signal of the directed audio spells?
After Gu Xijiu exhorted Li Mengxia, she immediately teleported out from the hotel. She found an open space and tried connecting the directed audio spell. A moment later, the directed audio spell was blinking. Right after it was connected, Di Fuyi's magnetic and clear voice was heard. "Where did you go? Why were you not reachable earlier?"
Gu Xijiu immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Perhaps, there was something wrong with the layout or construction of the hotel that had blocked the signal of her directed audio spell. Suddenly, she thought of a scary possibility just as she was about to speak to him about her day! It may not have been a coincidence that the signal of her directed audio spell was blocked. If that was the case, the line of her directed audio spell could have also been transferred to someone else! What if someone was listening to their conversation?
Instantly, she smiled and replied. "I just visited an old friend. We had a drink since we were happy to be reunited again. Mengxia drank a little too much, so I think we won't be able to head back tonight. You should have a good rest."
There was a pause on the other side. "Where are you now?"
"We're at the Fengyi Hotel in Weilai Town."
"Wait there." Di Fuyi replied with two words and immediately disconnected the call.
Gu Xijiu stared at the directed audio spell for a short while before rubbing her brow. Was Di Fuyi heading over here now?! It was such a long journey.
Li Mengxia was still waiting for her in the room when she returned to the hotel. She heaved a sigh of relief as she saw Gu Xijiu come in. "How was it?"
Gu Xijiu answered, "Something is wrong with the hotel. The directed audio worked fine when I left the area."
Li Mengxia was still wondering. "The hotel can block the signal from your directed audio spell? What a mystery."
Gu Xijiu pulled the blanket over and covered herself. "Well, some places aren't able to receive any communication signal due to its construction layout."
She was shocked when she said it! The directed audio spells that she invented were slightly similar to the characteristics of a mobile phone. However, the signal that was sent and received were powered by spiritual power wavelengths. She had also done some research on Di Fuyi's jade tablet. In essence, the directed audio spells were simplified version of the jade tablet, and its signal was powerful. The only time when someone could not be contacted with the jade tablet was if they had entered a forbidden land. It was due to the sound insulating wizardry barrier that was set around the forbidden lands. However, the barrier was very hard to set-up and required a person to have a spiritual power of level nine before they were able to cast it.
Gu Xijiu would have felt it if there was a wizardry barrier surrounding the hotel. Therefore, it was not possible. Hence, if it was not because of a wizardry barrier, it was probably a particular type of modern strategy. However, there were only two people other than Gu Xijiu living in that era who knew the strategy. They were Long Siye and Long Fan. Did it mean that Long Siye had done something to the hotel? What was his intention?
Long Siye did not seem to have any reason to do it. Was Long Fan the culprit behind this problem?! She pressed her ear towards the wall to listen if there was any sound next door. It was extremely quiet next door to the extent that she could hear the sound of Long Siye's breathing.
The hotel was strange, and Long Siye was acting oddly as well. Originally, Gu Xijiu planned to depart tomorrow. However, she would be leaving with a burden in her heart if she was unable to solve all the mysteries about today's events. Therefore, she had a secret conversation with Li Mengxia again and then teleported to Long Siye's room.
She made herself invisible once she entered the room. She first glanced at the bed and noticed that Long Siye was quietly lying on the bed. His eyes were closed, and his eyelashes were dilating. He was asleep as his breathing rhythm was long and steady. There was nothing unusual.
Gu Xijiu heaved a sigh of relief and glimpsed at his face again. Suddenly, her heart skipped a beat!


In a modern world, a professional assassin was murdered by her beloved and found herself revived in an ancient world as a general's daughter with a weak physique. She was engaged to a prince, but because she did not have a nice appearance, her fiancé and sister attempted to kill her. Although she had to struggle to survive, there were also those who unconditionally loves her that supported her in her time of need. 

How does she intend to adapt and survive in such a foreign and hostile world? Follow Gu Xijiu on her journey to discover her one true love!

They reached the place, and the man jiggled the keys as if it was a habit. The lock clicked, and Liu Xiaodan pushed open the door, feeling a weird draft coming from inside. He walked in with the trolley and moved to where the lights should be. As soon as the lights opened, he was forced to take in the eerie feel of the place.
Tang Mingming reached to close the door and looked around as much as Liu Xiaodan did. None of them had entered this place before. 
The audio-visual room was not in use anymore, but it wasn't demolished. The rows of chairs were still there as well as the yellowed white screen in front. However, as it was discolored, creased, and uneven; Liu Xiaodan stepped forward to remove the white screen.
"Oh, he's fixing it...?"
He almost stopped when he heard a sliver of a voice from behind. His eyes were very sharp, and he could see anything that was with them in the room. He swore that the audio-visual room was empty; to hear a voice all of a sudden...?
He looked back and saw no one but Tang Mingming sitting down in the last row. The other wasn't planning to help out, which was fine since he was just tagging along. 
Liu Xiaodan had set up private screening before so he was efficient. He replaced the white screen with what was given to him by the librarian. Moreover, he fixed the alignment of the chairs that seemed to be messed after a few had last used it.
The only vexing part was that the machine was the old model, and Liu Xiaodan prayed while setting up the machine gently. If he was Ruan Jin, he would have set it up in a jiffy—no matter the model. 
Then, he asked Tang Mingming which he wanted to see, but a few more voices voted. In the end, Liu Xiaodan played the old adventure movie.
After everything was in place, he sat on the last row next to Tang Mingming while waiting for the reel to start. Guangru climbed to his lap and sat there, not even caring about the extra person. He wanted to see what Liu Xiaodan was happy to see.
Ten... nine... eight...
"Shhh... it's starting..."
Seven... six... five...
"You're on my seat. Move it."
Liu Xiaodan began hearing louder voices even if it was just him and Tang Mingming inside. 
The audio-visual room was wide enough to house almost a hundred inmates with decent spaces as they watched. There were rows of seats up front, but they were all empty. However, Liu Xiaodan felt like all of those seats were occupied for the screening.
There were even voices talking to each other.
The room was now dark, and the only light was coming from the screen and the machine. The movie was like those old movies with no sound, only a very poor display. However, that was the only kind of visual entertainment they had in this place.
Liu Xiaodan then began looking around in the dark. To his surprise, the supposed empty seats seemed to have silhouettes of people on them. There was even a notable figure at the seat farthest from the door. The person had long hair and seemed to be a woman.
"So cute...�� He caught Tang Mingming whisper. Liu Xiaodan didn't want to take a look at him, really. However, his next words shocked the other. "Heh, the child in the movie is so cute, isn't he, Jun?"
"Your friend snuck in?" Liu Xiaodan didn't look at him. He only had a sigh that was heaved deep from inside him. The father then held onto the child on his lap, who was rather absorbed in what they were watching.
"Y-Yeah..."
"Mn."
Looking back to what the librarian tried to tell him, Liu Xiaodan remembered that this place seemed to be haunted. There were a lot of ghosts waiting to watch a movie, and they would all patiently wait for a movie to be played. It'd been years since they last saw one so they were particularly calm and excited while watching.
The father and son were also enjoying the low-quality movie. It was only low quality because of its display and the kind of reel it had. As for the story, shots, and actors; it was indeed a masterpiece.
Four hours had quickly passed while Liu Xiaodan was in the audio-visual room. The second movie just ended, and he was about to get up again to switch for the last movie. 
However, he noticed a sliver of light coming from the door. He walked to it and opened it, using a hand to shield his eyes from the lights coming from the hallway outside.
"Oh, is it over?" The voice of the librarian traveled to his ears, and Liu Xiaodan turned to see the librarian standing at the side. The librarian then hurried over and laughed out. "You rascal. Did you forget not to watch consecutively? It's past one; the guards thought you were missing and had already escaped."
"Aiya..." Liu Xiaodan only chuckled. He then looked back in the dark room before smiling at the librarian again. "Please give me a second."
He switched on the lights and was about to kill off the machine, but voices traveled to his ears. Encore, encore. These ghosts were so demanding. They just finished that movie. 
However, Liu Xiaodan only switched the reels to replay the last movie. He then left it on before leaving the audio-visual room.
The librarian had long heard that the audio-visual room was still crowded by a number of souls. Riot after riot happened in that place before, and souls were bound to it and the machine itself. He didn't really believe things like those until he saw Guangru. Right now, he even heard faint voices asking for an encore.
He could only close his eyes as he regulated his breathing and his heart rate. That was also a reason why he didn't bother asking why Liu Xiaodan left the machine rolling even if he wasn't around.
...
After showing his face to the guards and explaining that he was in the audio-visual room, Liu Xiaodan was pretty much let off by the guards. The librarian came with him, and their cameras did show him going to the audio-visual room. When he was released, he went back to the audio-visual room with two more films. This time, he was careful not to miss dinner.
In the middle of the fifth film for the day, loud bangs echoed from the door of the audio-visual room. The room's temperature dipped so badly like all the ghosts were unhappy that they were being disturbed. This was also the reason why the librarian didn't barge in earlier; he heard rumors about the bad ends of disturbing a screening.
Liu Xiaodan was also annoyed by it. He got up from his seat to answer the door. However, before he could open it, a strong kick burst the door open. The light from outside showed a tall silhouette, and a bulky figure entered the room along with his minions. One even slapped the switch to hopefully blind Liu Xiaodan after being here for so long.
A low-pitched hiss came from the collection of souls inside, but Liu Xiaodan only backed off and reached behind him to turn off the machine. Using his body as a cover, he pushed the machine's wheeled table and the trolley away to the side slowly.
"What do you want?" Liu Xiaodan was not in a good mood. He was having his peace when these people kept on finding trouble with him.
"Hehe, did I not warn you about causing trouble in my turf?" Cheng Hei and his gang invaded the deserted audio-visual room under the premise of watching with Liu Xiaodan. "You shouldn't have killed another."
Dong Qiu laughed out as he kicked at the chairs, messing their order. In a bright room with all his bros, what could go wrong even if the place had a bad reputation? 
He continued to mess the room while the other spread out as if checking out the place. Another man whistled as he took out his knife and stabbed at the white screen. Someone subsequently found the machine and tried to kick it, but a small hand grabbed his leg. He didn't let out a shriek, but he backed off.
Liu Xiaodan only stood in the middle of the loose encirclement. He glared at the man before him. "Cheng Hei... Cheng pig, you're really asking to be sent off..."
Cheng pig?! That was the second time he was called Cheng pig that day! 
He gritted his teeth and went to dash towards the man. If this Liu Xiaodan really wanted to die, then he didn't even need to wait for his trial to come. He could vanish for lunch so he could also vanish for dinner, right? 
If he just left the corpse in the audio-visual room, would someone be courageous enough to pick it up?
Right, everyone knew the stories about the audio-visual room, and to have this man hang out in the place for so long? He was insane—surely, he was terrifyingly insane!
"You're the one being sent off!" Cheng Hei grabbed Liu Xiaodan by the neck and pulled his other fist to deliver a deathly blow. He wanted to cave in this bastard's face once and for all. However...
Catch! Liu Xiaodan used a hand and effortlessly caught the deathly punch. If anything, Liu Xiaodan should be injured at least because of the punching power of Cheng Hei. What made everyone freeze was that he just lazily put out his hand and caught the punch.
"Cheng Hei, you're awfully hated by hundreds of people right now." Liu Xiaodan felt his blood boil and his heart shake in anger; however, none of these emotions surfaced his face. 
His dark eyes were cold and dead as if he was not even alive. "I have a child, and he could take you anywhere he wanted. If he throws you to the incinerator of the prison, no one will even know."
"Child...?" Cheng Hei's eyes quivered a little. He remembered that beautiful child whose hair was damp with blood. He then gritted his teeth as he tried to force his fist past Liu Xiaodan's hold. 
"You don't scare me! Incinerate?! I will incinerate you and make sure that your mother would never find you again!
"Right... your mother... she's a beauty, isn't she?" Cheng Hei then made a slow sinister grin. "Liu Xiaodan, are you aware that I can walk in and out of this prison as I please? What say you...? 
"I will just knock you out for now... and then I will take your mother and enjoy her before killing you both? Pleasing, isn't it?"
Upon hearing his words, Liu Xiaodan froze. After so, his eyes widened before he smiled widely like a malevolent, vengeful entity.
"Plea... sing?" He dropped his head to the side like his neck was broken. "Isn't it?"

Just when Liu Xiaodan thought that his strange, mundane life was at its peak after meeting the ghost child he named Guangru, the child ended up being a gateway to the past that he had never wished to unlock... and a future he could only brace for.

Through his blood came a mystery that had soon given birth to an existence that everyone wanted to subdue yet no one would like to meet. Liu Xiaodan was destined to stand at the top of the food chain, but would he use his powers for good? Or would he rather lock himself away from the light forever? After all, his kind... was the strongest in the dark.

This is the monster that he chose to become.

[COMPLETED BY JUNE 30, 2021]

This story is a work of fiction. Similarities to people, living or dead, are coincidental. No, the child is NOT the object of affection.

Tang Xi and Qiao Liang's plan was to make Qin Xinying lose everything she had. If they just let her come back to China, as time went by, people would forget about what she had done, and then she could show up again with the identity of the heiress to the Qin's Group. She wouldn't be truly punished unless they made her utterly discredited. And if she was found to have assault Tang Xi in public, she would lose all of her reputation. 
She stole Tang Xi's design drawings, forced Tang Xi to admit the design drawings were hers, assaulted Tang Xi when she refused her and even plotted with Xu Fang to murder Tang Xi… 
Tang Xi clenched the recording pen in her hand and a cold gleam flickered across her eyes. It had been quite a while before she looked up at Qiao Liang and asked, "How did you get this recording pen?"
There was the audio of Xu Fang and Qin Xinying's conversations in the recording pen. She didn't expect the two of them actually plotted against her. She had thought only Xu Fang wanted to set her up, but it turned out that she plotted with Qin Xinying! Should she thank them for taking her so seriously? 
Tang Xi was so angry that her hands trembled. Seeing this, Qiao Liang reached out to hold Tang Xi's hands and said in a low voice, "I had found out that Qin Xinying tried to set you up, but I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to be sad and there was plenty of time for us to sort her out, but I didn't expect that she just didn't give up with setting you up. We must not let her off easily."
Tang Xi pursed her lips and said, "Send the audio to the police. With this evidence, Qin Xinying will be convicted of intentional assault at least! I must teach her a lesson! By the way, release the audio on the Internet. I want everyone to know what kind of person Qin Xinying is!"
"In this case, we should go to the hospital now." Qiao Liang frowned. "Then you won't be able to attend Lawrence's dinner party."
Tang Xi's eyes had a sly gleam when she heard his words. She smiled at Qiao Liang as she said, "Tell Lawrence I'm hospitalized and Lawrence will come to visit me. Then the French media will report this news."
She didn't want to attend the dinner party that much anyways. She agreed to attend it just because it was held by Lawrence. She wanted to take the chance to advertise The Queen. But now she had something more meaningful to do. 
Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi and shook his head with a smile. He touched the tip of her nose and said, "Long Xiao has a hospital in Paris. Let's go there." To treat its injured agents, Long Xiao Group established hospitals of their own all over the world.
The two of them immediately headed for the hospital. The chief of the hospital was already waiting for her and soon arranged a ward for Tang Xi when they arrived. They had even prepared the inspection report for Tang Xi. Surprised at the hospital's speed, Tang Xi took a look at Qiao Liang and said in admiration, "This hospital is so efficient!"
Qin Xinying smiled and rubbed at Tang Xi's hair. "I'll send this audio to the police station, and I've made the arrangements in the embassy. Qin Xinying won't be able to get out of the embassy so easily this time. She will have to pay a heavy price even if she can be released."
His eyes had a cold gleam as he said this. "We should let them know don't mess up with the wrong people!"
Tang Xi smiled, took his hand and gazed at him, nodding. "Okay, I can take care of myself. Go about your business. Don't forget to call Lawrence and Carl with my cell phone."
Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows, grunted in response and turned to leave.
…
In the police station, Qin Xinying kept explaining in English, "I didn't touch her! She fell over by herself. I swear I didn't touch her! I had no reason to assault her! If you don't believe me, you can make her confront me! I can prove I'm innocent!"
She didn't know why these policemen suddenly arrested her, but she knew she had to do something. If she didn't, she wouldn't be able to get out of here!
"Did you hear me? I didn't touch her! Make her confront me!"
"Confront you? She is in the hospital now. How can she confront you?! The hospital will send us her injury assessment report soon, and then you will know whether you assaulted her or not!" A black police officer glanced at her with a straight face and said coldly. 
Qin Xinying frowned and yelled, "Hospitals can fabricate reports. They are setting me up! You must find out the truth!" 
"Do you have a problem with our country's hospitals?!" A white policeman couldn't bear it any longer. He stood up and walked up to Qin Xinying who was locked behind bars as he stated coldly, "Our country's hospitals are better than any other country's! They won't fabricate the report! Stop slandering others!"
Qin Xinying paused and stared hatefully at that policeman, shouting, "I said I had no reason to hurt her! We are good friends! Why should I hurt her?!"
She changed her strategy. She squatted down and looked pitifully at that policeman, saying imploringly, "You have to trust me. No one else cares about her more than me. I will never ever hurt her. Please trust me!"
The white man frowned and was about to speak when another policeman sitting in front of a computer suddenly said, "The Chinese embassy sent us an audio after we informed them of this matter. Come here. Let's listen to the audio."
The policeman spoke in French, so Qin Xinying had no idea what he was talking about. She frowned and was about to speak, when the two policemen came over and the audio was played. Hearing the audio, Qin Xinying widened her eyes in shock. She had deleted the audio! Why did it appear here?! 
She swallowed and comforted herself. Don't be afraid. They don't understand Chinese, so they won't do anything to her!
The policemen didn't understand Chinese but they could tell one of the speakers was Qin Xinying…
One of the policemen turned on the translating machine and inputted the audio into it. Soon their conversation was translated into French…
