Shi i took off her coat and sweater, went to take a hot bath, and finally felt comfortable all over.
But as soon as she opened the bathroom door, Ye Tiao heard a low, suppressed voice coming from the room.
The voice sounded muffled, clearly emanating from beneath a pillow and quilt.
Startled, Ye Tiao walked over to her side.
Shi i seed completely unaware of anyone approaching, her sobs were wretched and frail.
Ye Tiao pursed her lips and walked forward to sit by her bed.
Shi i’s crying abruptly stopped and she turned her head. Before she could see anything, Ye Tiao had embraced her.
The warm, fragrant hug made Shi i’s heavy head pause, and her tears suddenly ’swooshed’ down even more.
Ye Tiao clicked her tongue in disdain, "Get a grip, where is the pain?"
"My head hurts."
"You were told to drink!" Ye Tiao’s voice was fierce, but her hands were gentle as they massaged Shi i’s temples. "What’s the point of pretending you can hold liquor when you can’t, Xu Cuo that jerk, you know him well, all bark and no bite, making you drink and you really did? Are you out of your mind?"
Ye Tiao automatically ignored the fact that it was Shi i who had invited Xu Cuo to drink and imdiately started cursing Xu Cuo.
A slight chuckle escaped Shi i’s lips. She tilted her head slightly and held Ye Tiao’s hand against her face.
Ye Tiao stopped moving, letting her sar her hands with tears, which were wet and sloppy, yet she said nothing, just watched her damp hair tenderly.
After what seed like ages, Shi i suddenly said, "We really seem like a couple."
Ye Tiao: "...I don’t want to be with you, thanks."
Shi i laughed lightly, "Go to sleep."
"Hmm," Ye Tiao looked at her, "You actually still can’t bear to divorce Shi Lingyan, can you?"
Shi i’s smile faded slightly, her drunkenness seeming to increase at that mont. She looked at the ceiling and whispered faintly, "No."
"You can fool others, but not ," Ye Tiao handed her two tissues to wipe away her tears, "saying you wish Shi Lingyan would just die, but when sothing happens to him, you are the most anxious. When you ca to, the first thing you did was ask about his condition, who are you deceiving?"
Shi i stared blankly at the ceiling, unresponsive for a long while.
Seeing her unresponsive deanor, Ye Tiao tucked her in, "Sleep."
Just as Ye Tiao had gotten into her own bed and covered herself with a blanket, she heard her drunken, vague voice, "I’m just a bit lost."
"Hmm?" Ye Tiao looked over.
Even though she could only see darkness.
"Right now, I just don’t know what to do," Shi i’s voice grew fainter, her words tinged with self-mockery, "Before, I always thought I was supposed to beco a world-renowned superstar. I worked day and night, wanting to beco more famous, more impressive."
"But ever since I died once, I suddenly realized, actually, all of these things are unimportant. Dreams, ambitions, in the face of life, are not worth ntioning."
"Including coming back to this world with a purpose, I lived to kill Shi Lingyan for revenge."
"Yet, I find that I simply can’t bring myself to harm Shi Lingyan," Shi i’s voice trembled slightly, "I thought it was because I had never killed anyone."
"But you know, I killed that foreigner who tried to rape with one slash. When I ran over another under the car wheels, I even felt a bit relieved. If I were really foolish, I’d be done for." Shi i suddenly chuckled, "Till now, I don’t feel a bit guilty about killing soone, isn’t that terrifying?"
