Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Happy Birthday to You (1)_1

"Whoever competes with me will face a gruesome end!"

With that said, Chi Mu’s gaze fell onto Xia Wan’an’s flat stomach, "Worse yet... you’re carrying his child..."

Child... this word managed to instantly dim the light in Xia Wan’an’s eyes.

Unaware of her changing expression, Chi Mu seemed to be unleashing all the hatred she had kept in her heart, spitting out her words with evident resentment, "He even took you to try on wedding dresses... As I went through the hardest times, you two were enjoying carefree days... Why?!"

As this sharp question ended, Chi Mu’s phone suddenly rang.

She took out her phone and glanced at it, then showed the screen to Xia Wan’an, "It’s midnight now... Today is your birthday, right? I’ve meticulously prepared a birthday gift for you..."

As she spoke, Chi Mu raises a lighter.

The yacht is sealed, with spilled gasoline all over the floor, its thick scent floating in the air. As soon as she presses the lighter, any small spark would set the entire yacht ablaze...

All along, she was wondering what kind of gambit Chi Mu was playing. Now she realized, Chi Mu was intending to trade her life for hers... to perish together!

Without even thinking, Xia Wan’an darted forward to stop Chi Mu. Chi Mu made no move to dodge, letting her snatch the lighter from her hand.

Xia Wan’an breathed a silent sigh of relief. Just as she was about to fully exhale, a click sounded. Xia Wan’an looked up to see another lighter in Chi Mu’s hand, already switched on.

A small flame danced upon Chi Mu’s fingertips, then like a spell, met the gasoline in the air and detonated.

Through the flames, Xia Wan’an clearly saw Chi Mu smiling at her, her grin twisted yet brilliant, "Xia Wan’an, Happy Birthday."

As her words drew to a close, flames quickly engulfed her, but she seemed to feel no pain, still laughing, even making laugh sounds.

While laughing, she started to sing softly, "Happy Birthday to you, Happy birthday to you... wishing you happiness and health, a bright future... Happy Birthday..."

The song rang like a call from Hell, making Xia Wan’an’s heart race.

The fire spread via Chi Mu to the floor, then along the floor, quickly surrounding her.

The temperature in the yacht increased rapidly, turning Xia Wan’an’s skin hot and sore.

The wind on the sea grew stronger, the noise of the waves more fierce.

Xia Wan’an started to cough, and amidst the coughs, visions of Han Jingnian’s face flashed before her eyes. His image morphed from his current self to his younger self, finally ending in the courtyard of the Han family’s old house. Young Xia Wan’an lifted her hand and knocked on the window of the black car. The window slowly fell, revealing a face that would keep her smitten for life...

That was their first meeting. He occupied her heart, but she never entered his sight.

They were never meant to be together after all. They neither had a good meet, nor a proper goodbye...

...

At this moment, a couple of speedboats were racing towards the open sea.

"There’s a fire over there..."

Someone uttered these words, and the speedboats simultaneously dashed towards the fire. However, before they could reach it, the blaze suddenly exploded. With a loud "bang", thick smoke billowed above the sea.
