All of this happened too quickly. Having no time to dodge, and before Fan Meinan could react, the sharp pain in her chest transmitted from her nerves to her brain. Her eyes bulged wide, and her pupils filled with shock and confusion. Her lips moved, seeming as though trying to spew something out.
In the next moment, however, her vision turned black, and her body fell backward. First, she hit the table, knocking over the kettle and cup. Then, leaning against the table, she slid down bit by bit. Finally, her head tilted to one side, and she became motionless.
Blood gradually dyed her pullovers red, and her eyes completely lost their luster.
Cheng Sihan stood in front of her sister as she looked down at the lifeless body on the ground with a complex expression. Wang Lirong, who was lying on the other bed, was finally awakened by the sound of the kettle falling to the ground.
