Once he loves someone, he will never change. He is sincere and honest towards Xia Han. Being betrayed is very painful, but he still cannot let go of his obsession with the young man.
Being stabbed in the heart of loyalty and cruelty, he gradually lost all feelings for others. However, the heart that has never been moved by anyone was once again moved by this cold and mysterious man.
He didn't understand why he was attracted to him.
Every time he came close or touched him, he felt anxious and short of breath. Did he like him or was he just afraid?
"Xie Cheng". Liu Yu pressed his chest against his back, through a layer of fabric, the friction created an itchy feeling.
He was startled, quickly and instinctively poked his index finger into his chest.
Liu Yu didn't resist, his strength was like a chicken's, not enough for his strong body.
His hand loosened, and he immediately struggled to get away. Standing up, his face red: "What are you doing?".
"I'm afraid you'll touch the centipede."
Look, his face has no emotion, it's like he's shy when he just hugged someone!
That captivating gaze is fixed on him.
His heart is beating non-stop, it's really uncomfortable.
He doesn't want to be near him, any more and his heart will burst out. He immediately turns his back and goes to the door where Xiao Xin helps her bandage her wound and wash her hands.
At this moment, under the red firelight that illuminates half of his face in the darkness, he slightly curls his lips and watches his back, whispering softly: "So cute."
Xie Cheng had just finished applying the tape for her when he felt a chill on his back, thinking that it must be because he was in a dark place with rain, that's why he shivered. He didn't think that someone was staring at him.
"You're so careful and skillful." Xiao Xin praised, raising her hand to examine it.
"Thank you."
Xiao Xin: "Your job in the real world must require meticulousness, right?".
"Haha, I'm just a hairstylist." Xie Cheng smiled.
"Wow, that's why you look like a hair artist. So when you get rid of the curse, can you do my hair?". She was interested.
"Okay."
This made Xie Cheng proud of his talent and skills again. He started to act like he was talking about his techniques and how to do his job. Xiao Xin was extremely interested and listened attentively.
"Is that so? Can you dye my hair when you get rid of it?". Liu Yu suddenly appeared behind the two of them.
The two of them were startled and turned their heads to look at him.
They walked silently, it really made people faint-hearted.
Looking down at him with the intention of listening to the story, but Xie Cheng ended it. Hesitating for a moment, he reluctantly agreed.
"Okay, okay, when I get rid of the curse, I'll do it for you." Xie Cheng nodded and smiled awkwardly.
The rain gradually stopped, the three of them prepared to go out to find the chest containing Qin Er's body.
"Oh, I forgot." He took the ring and gave it to Xiao Xin.
"When did you lose this ring?" He asked.
She took it and put it on her left ring finger because the one on her right hand was bandaged. Suddenly her face darkened, not wanting to remember the terrible things that had happened to her, so she changed the subject.
"Hehe, I don't know when it was lost either."
One look and you could tell she was lying, hiding something.
Liu Yu glared at her: "You should tell me, maybe your teammates can help you."
Feeling that this man had some invisible power, she instantly shivered and retreated, not daring to stand at the same distance as him. Avoiding his sharp amber eyes, Hieu Han didn't dare to open her mouth, let alone tell him.
Seeing her expression, Xie Cheng softly said: "It's okay if you don't say anything, let's go now".
Xiao Xin breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Yes".
Liu Yu coldly: ".....".
Outside the garden, the damp grass and the smell of rainwater mixed with the gloomy and dark scenery without a trace of moonlight, only flowers and bare land made people feel desolate and cold. On both sides were rows of green trees and flower bushes, in the middle was a straight path paved with stones. It was unknown where the path led.
The two people, Xie Cheng and Xiao Xin, lit their lighters and walked in front, talking very comfortably. Meanwhile, he used a flashlight to walk behind, shining around the area with the cold and serious appearance of an old man, making others not feel easy to approach at all.
He walked while slightly turning his head to secretly look at him, this person was quiet and did not do anything strange.
The angle of his face when he tilted his head to look around, was really manly. He blushed slightly, stopped looking and turned his face up to focus on walking and searching for clues.
Did he think he didn't know he was peeking? Liu Yu slightly raised the corner of his mouth.
After walking for a while, they saw that the front seemed to be the back door of the hotel, and the three of them went there. Xie Cheng opened the door but only heard a rattling sound, the door was locked.
"This door is locked, let's see if there's another way in here." Standing still, he looked around the door to see if there were any clues, and suddenly spoke.
"Oh, but Mr. Liu...". He turned his head and didn't see Liu Yu anywhere.
"Huh?!".
"Where's Mr. Liu, Xiao Xin?". He turned around and asked.
Xiao Xin shook her head in confusion: "He was just here!".
He didn't move and just disappeared.
"Here." Where was Liu Yu? said again.
Based on the dim light of the lighter, he couldn't see much of the surroundings, and didn't know where his voice was coming from.
"Where are you?". Xie Cheng waved the lighter.
"Here.".
He kept saying here, here, while he couldn't see anyone. He was both scared and a little annoyed: "Where?!".
"Here". He crawled through the hole in the wall next to the biggest tree in the yard, shining the flashlight on him.
Unexpectedly, he crawled through there without saying a word, making people think he had disappeared!
"Come in, there seems to be a lot of things we can collect in here".
He walked over, lit the lighter and saw that this hole was just enough for a person to crawl through. The stone wall was covered in blood, not knowing if it was from a human or a demon, but it had several horizontal and vertical lines. Looking up at the large dead tree next to it, only this tree had lost its life, withered compared to the small green trees around it. The drooping branches and leaves looked gloomy, making the tree look like a demon standing still, watching its prey below.
Xie Cheng couldn't help but shiver, just wanting to quickly crawl through the hole to be with that man. Although he was scary, at least he could protect his teammates.
"Xiao Xin, you go in first, then I'll go." He gave in to Xiao Xin.
Suddenly, he saw her lower her head and her face pale, as if she had seen something terrible. She stood still, as if her feet were nailed to the spot. Xie Cheng, who was beside her, patted her shoulder, and she suddenly regained her composure and raised her head to look at him. Cold sweat was dripping from her forehead, and she smiled, trying to hide something. Pretending that nothing happened: "Yes, yes, let me go in."
Looking at Xiao Xin crawling through the hole, he frowned and began to think.
There was something very suspicious about this Xiao Xin.
After a moment, his eyebrows relaxed, and his state returned to normal. He also went in.
Inside, there was a small path leading to the forest in front of him. In the darkness, he suddenly saw something sparkling on the ground, shining all over the path.
"Gold!" Xiao Xin picked up the sparkling gold piece under her feet.
It was all gold, could this place be where treasure was buried?
Xiao Xin's eyes lit up and she began to bend down to pick up all the glittering things on the ground. Xie Cheng on this side suddenly noticed something on the wooden box in the corner of the wall. He went over and lit a lighter and saw two pieces of paper.
The content inside the paper did not clearly state the date like the previous times, but only a short paragraph:
"Fei Hui, quickly beat your crazy brother to death! Yesterday he dared to barge into the bathroom... Touch my thigh! I can see that he is really horny and wants to fuck me! I'm so scared! I've seen that disgusting gaze peeping at me every day many times, I can't stand that crazy, crazy, crazy bastard! Fei Hui! Quickly find a way to kill him so I can be at peace. We'll get married in six months, if you don't kill him then we'll break up, I don't want to be the daughter-in-law of this family!".
After reading this paper, Xie Cheng didn't want to read the second paper, it was full of curses and vulgarities that he hated. The person who wrote this note felt indecent.
"It seems that the wife of the owner of Qing Fei Hotel was no less impudent when she was young." Liu Yu commented from behind.
He continued: "Now we should connect the previous clues together."
He nodded, took the notebook, and compared the previous contents with the current one: "The clue is still not very clear, we don't know who Qing Fei Hui's wife is, we only know that this paper was written by her. And who is this Qing Fei Hui's brother that she scolded?".
He continued: "Then Qin Er is just a manager, so we don't know who Xing Xing is, we only know that he is a person who has a close relationship with Manager Qin".
Liu Yu pondered: "Perhaps there are many things we missed on the way, if we find objects or something related to those people, the clue will be clearer".
Xie Cheng said: "So let's go back to the place where the chest containing Manager Qin's body is, I haven't searched the rooms next door yet because...".
His face darkened: "There is a disgusting demon there, I was afraid that I couldn't do anything to it so I ran away, and ended up jumping into a deep hole".
He clipped the two newly found papers together with the other two in the notebook, rolled them up, and stuffed them into his pocket, saying, "Well, I guess if we want to go back there, we have to go through that back door, which is locked. This place and that place are in the same garden."
"Okay, but let's go through this forest first, I feel something in this forest sending a signal that wants us to go in." He picked up the gold pieces and put them in his pocket.
He agreed.
He hadn't heard any noise from Xiao Xin, he turned around to pull her away, but only the cold wind blew past.
Xiao Xin didn't make a sound and just like that, she disappeared.
He was covered in cold sweat because right at the entrance, a jet-black arm was sticking out.
SWISH!
"GRAAAA!!!".
A golden ray of light flashed before his eyes, like a thunderbolt striking the jet-black arm, instantly breaking it into four pieces of flesh. Black blood gushed out, the demon on the other side roared, tearing the sky and clouds apart.
