Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

One month later...

Ming Shu suddenly received a call from Lu Ning saying that she had made some new discoveries and wanted to see her.

But Ming Shu waited at the place they agreed for two hours, and Lu Ning didn’t show up.

She called her yet it seemed the phone had been turned off.

Ming Shu called the Ye family, and learned the Ye family left three hours ago.

As Ming Shu was so confused, Lu Ning called back.

Ming Shu answered the phone.

It was quiet on the other end of the phone. About thirty seconds later, a voice came over. “Jiang Xue.”

It was Yi Xi.

Ming Shu asked calmly, “Do you have Lu Ning?”

“It’s good you know.” Yi Xi paused. “Aren’t you her friend? If you want her alive, come see me alone.”

“Oh, no, I’m good. Just enjoy yourself.” Ming Shu hung up the phone quickly.

Yi Xi kidnapped my female cook, terrible!

But...

Was there anything wrong with Yi Xi?

She only planned on a kidnapping after so long?

Yi Xi kept calling, Ming Shu hung it up several times, then finally picked up.

“Little cutie, didn’t I tell you to play by yourself?”

“Jiang Xue!” Unlike the calm tone from before, Yi Xi was now very pissed off. ” Don’t play around with me. Lu Ning’s life depends on you.”

“Okay, all right.”

Ming Shu hung up the phone again.

“...”

Yi Xi was probably angered to madness and sent several pictures to Ming Shu.

Lu Ning was tied up in a water tank and water was pouring in, already up to her calves.

Ming Shu: “...”

Doesn’t this kind of storyline exclusively belong to the male protagonist?

So I am surely the male protagonist?

...

Ming Shu found the place that Yi Xi told her. It was a basement in East District.

Lu Ning was hung in the water tank, in a confused state of mind.

The light was dim, Ming Shu didn’t see Yi Xi.

Ming Shu walked toward the water tank.

Boom!

A bullet shot right in front of her. Ming Shu stopped and looked in the direction where the bullet came from.

Yi Xi walked out from the darkness slowly. “Jiang Xue, you came anyway.”

“Little cutie invited me, so I must come.”

Yi Xi frowned slightly. This woman always talked nonsense.

But soon she returned to normal. “Since you’re here, I’m sorry, you and Lu Ning won’t get out of here today.”

She should have removed them the first time she was reborn here.

Ming Shu gasped in admiration. “Wow, you’re so powerful! Why don’t you go save the world?”

Yi Xi: “...” Psycho!

Ming Shu pinched her wrist and glanced around. Yi Xi was about to speak when she saw the girl who had been standing properly just now suddenly move.

Boom boom!

Yi Xi fired two shots but missed the target.

Ming Shu was getting closer and closer to her.

Boom!

Ming Shu jumped over the obstacle and reached Yi Xi, who pointed the gun at her and pulled the trigger.

Kacha—

Yi Xi’s wrist was clamped in Ming Shu’s hand, and she couldn’t even hold the gun still. Then the gun slipped down and was caught by another hand, and the muzzle was turned against her own chest.

Yi Xi’s body stiffened. The pain in her wrists made her sweat.

The pain...

Ming Shu raised her hand and hit Yi Xi on the shoulder. She bent her leg and struck toward Yi Xi’s abdomen, then the latter was completely beaten down and fell.

“Little cutie, if you want to attack me, you should shoot me in the first place, instead of talking nonsense.”

Yi Xi crouched on the ground. It was so soon...

She didn’t even react.

“Jiang Xue...” Yi Xi suddenly laughed, eyes filled with craziness. “You think that’s all I’ve prepared?”

Ming Shu looked down at her.

Yi Xi scraped the ground with her fingers, leaving clear palm prints in the dust. She looked up at Ming Shu, eyes glittering with the joy of success.

“What a pity, when you go back, you won’t even see him for a last chance.”

It was also a good idea to kill someone she cared about.

Yi Xi looked away and rested her eyes somewhere behind Ming Shu, and her fingers slowly clenched.

“That’s really a pity. I’m afraid you might be disappointed.” Ming Shu put the gun against Yi Xi’s head.

Yi Xi’s nerves tensed and she screamed, “If you dare hurt me, he’ll be killed immediately!”

Boom!

The gunshot rang out from the side. Ming Shu missed her target and shot Yi Xi in the shoulder.

The scene suddenly became chaotic. Yi Xi was picked up and taken away by some people who were obviously arranged by Yi Xi ahead of time so as to protect her at a critical moment.

Perhaps because they were afraid that Ming Shu would find them, these people hid themselves somewhere when Ming Shu came in.

Yi Xi’s voice pierced through the gunshots and sounded evil and scary. “Blow it up!”

Beep—

...

Rumble!

The whole building was blown up and began to collapse from below. The dumbfounded onlookers all around stood stunned for a second before they began to flee.

Yi Xi mixed herself among these people and was led away a long way before she looked back.

The building had completely collapsed.

She didn’t believe they could survive this!

“Young Miss, are you okay?”

The dull pain in Yi Xi’s shoulder attacked her. She gave an order with a pale face. “Blow up the other side, now.”

“Yes.”

A main house in East District exploded without warning.

Ye Ji stood on another street, looking at the site of the explosion, his dark eyes filled with coldness.

He held Little Beastie in his arms and stopped a car, heading to the West District.

...

Ming Shu sat in the ruins and was nibbling fruits. She was covered in dust, but not hurt.

Lu Ning lay beside her and woke up quietly after quite a while.

“Miss Jiang Xue...” Lu Ning looked at her. “I... Did you save me?”

Ming Shu threw away the fruit core. “Yes, I did.”

Lu Ning propped herself up to see ruins. This...

Where were they now?

Ming Shu took out another fruit from one side and continued nibbling. “How did Yi Xi kidnap you?”

Lu Ning covered her head. “Ye Tong... It was Ye Tong. I came across her when I went out. She ran into me for no reason and put a tracker on me.”

She was conscious when she was caught, Yi Xi told her all about it.

Lu Ning breathed. “Yi Xi took my lifespan card.”

Ming Shu’s movement paused. “Lifespan cards can only be personally used. What does she want with it?”

“It’s not...” Lu Ning said. “I found that lifespan cards can be changed by names. The Ye family seemed to have some people who are doing this. There seemed to be something wrong when Yi Xi reset. She doesn’t have much lifespan left now.”

Ming Shu blinked. “Ye Wenji?”

Lu Ning denied it. “No, Mr. Ye didn’t know about it. I found that by accident.”

Ming Shu nodded thoughtfully. “Is this what you wanted to tell me?”

“No, I wanted to tell you that I’ve found a rule.”

“What rule?”

Lu Ning was a little excited. “The reset of the world always happens after the war between two districts. No matter which district is left, it will be reset anyway in the end. So, what if two districts live together peacefully?”

Ming Shu looked at her and smiled. “The most important thing now is to get your card back.”

Lu Ning revealed a miserable expression. Right. Her life was now in the hands of others, how could she have the mood to consider this stuff.
