Chapter 280: 280 Agreed (four updates)

Looking at the long water stain.

Shen Suhua’s pupils contracted sharply as she suddenly remembered the strange phenomena she had seen in the living room these past few days.

So, this was how the water stain had come to be.

So their family had been living with a ghost all this time.

Even though the surrounding air was chilly, Shen Suhua’s palms were still drenched with sweat.

Wen Ziyao looked at the ghostly shadow drifting toward her, and her eyes moistened. At this moment, she was no longer afraid.

It was more a feeling of guilt.

She recalled the scene when she first met Lin Xiaoman.

Back then, Lin Xiaoman was just as she was now, wearing a red dress. Her features were delicate, her eyes bright and teeth white, and the smile at the corner of her mouth was extremely charming.

"Hello, classmate, my name is Lin Xiaoman, ’Lin’ as in forest, ’Xiao’ as in small, ’Man’ as in Zhang Manyu. I come from Hangzhou, and I’m very glad to meet you. We’ll be roommates from now on, please take good care of me."

"Hello, my name is Wen Ziyao, I’m a local from the Capital City. Lin Xiaoman, your name sounds so nice. Can I call you Manman from now on?"

"Of course, then I’ll call you Yaoyao."

"Manman, you’re really pretty. Your child will definitely be just as beautiful as you."

"Yaoyao, when you get married, can I be your bridesmaid?"

"Of course, and when you get married, I want to be your bridesmaid too, and I’ll also be your son’s godmother!"

"That’s great, if you have a girl in the future and I have a boy, let’s become in-laws, shall we?"

When your wedding gown touches the ground, I shall match it with a short skirt.

When your black hair reaches your shoulders, I shall match it with delicate brows.

How beautiful the promises of the past were, echoing in my ears, as if they had happened only yesterday.

But looking back now, everything has changed.

My best friend from the past had turned into a handful of yellow soil because of my mistake.

I regret it.

Regret it to the extreme!

If it hadn’t been for me, Lin Xiaoman would surely be living a happy life.

Wen Ziyao’s tears almost burst forth, her voice becoming choked up, "Manman, I’m sorry..."

"You don’t deserve to call me by that name! Wen Ziyao! How could I have treated you as my best sister! This is how you repay me! You let someone ruin my innocence, ruin everything about me! Do you know how cold it is at the bottom of the water? Do you? All the fish and shrimp are gnawing at my body! Do you know how much it hurts? Didn’t we agree to die together? Have you forgotten our pact? Why are you still living well now? Why? From the very beginning, you were scheming against me! I will make you suffer the Eighteen Layers of Hell!"

Lin Xiaoman suddenly became enraged, her facial features twisted into a gruesome visage, and her black hair, which had been draped over her chest, now stood on end due to this overwhelming resentment.

She had completely gone mad!

"Ah!" With a shriek full of rage, all items placed in the room shook and collided with one another.

It was as if an earthquake had suddenly struck.

The ghost qi filled the sky.

"Wen Ziyao! I want you to pay with your life!" The blood-red sharp nails seemed to burst out from Lin Xiaoman’s fingertips instantly.

They brought with them a chilling coldness, like a clutch of swords lunging directly at Wen Ziyao.

And Wen Ziyao did not dodge or hide.

"Manman, if killing me can appease the hatred in your heart, then come," Wen Ziyao said as she slowly closed her eyes.

Li Mi and Shen Suhua both turned deathly pale with fear.

Was Yaoyao really going to die just like that? Shen Suhua knew she couldn’t shrink back at this time. She threw herself in front of Lin Xiaoman and knelt at her feet, "Xiaoman, Xiaoman, please let Yaoyao go. Auntie is willing to die in Yaoyao’s place, please spare her!"

"Spare her?" Lin Xiaoman laughed bitterly twice, her voice filled with misery, "Who spared me then? If it wasn’t for her, I would still be alive and well now! She tricked me into dying, yet she’s alive and well in this world! Why? Didn’t we agree to die together? Why didn’t she die! Why didn’t she jump into the lake? She broke her promise!"

Some pain, when shared by two people, Lin Xiaoman did not want to dwell on the past anymore.

In fact, Lin Xiaoman’s biggest regret was the promise they made before her death.

They had clearly agreed to die together, yet Wen Ziyao broke the pledge, clinging to life, and even ended up with Xu Tairan!

She died, and not even intact.

But Wen Ziyao was alive and well, why?

"This is all Auntie’s fault, it has nothing to do with Yaoyao," Shen Suhua recalled the incident from the past, "Back then, Yaoyao indeed jumped into Liuyang Lake with you, but afterward, she was swept to the shore by the lake waters, found by people, and taken to the hospital. When I arrived at the school and found the suicide note you left behind, knowing about the pact between you two, I was afraid Yaoyao, upon waking up, would become depressed and continue seeking death, so I hid the suicide note secretly and even arranged for Yaoyao to undergo hypnotherapy, causing her to forget the suicide altogether as well as the pact between you two. So, this has nothing to do with Yaoyao, it was all Auntie’s doing."

Listening to Shen Suhua’s words, Lin Xiaoman stopped her assault, blood-tears streaming ceaselessly from her eyes.

Shen Suhua lay prostrate at her feet, sobbing uncontrollably.

"Xiaoman, you can direct all your hatred at Auntie, it’s Auntie who failed to raise her daughter properly, I’m willing to die in Yaoyao’s place..."
