Chapter 180 - Song Sisi "Disappeared"

Chapter 180 Song Sisi “Disappeared”

They set out cleaning up their own rooms after this discussion. Ye Yifan and Tang Xia looked at each other, feeling that this day wouldn’t be smooth.

As they looked at the various looks on each other’s faces, Tang Xia sighed. It seemed that everyone had been on the edge of a mental breakdown after being isolated from the outside world in the villa, where someone had died. In fact, if Ye Yifan had not appeared unexpectedly, she also would have broken down.

Ye Yifan frowned as he saw Tang Xia’s sober expression. He lifted his hand and fondled her hair, which felt soft and fluffy and smelled like flowers. Ye Yifan was almost lost in a trance for a moment. Tang Xia flushed again at once and looked up at Ye Yifan coyly.

Ye Yifan comforted her softly.

“Everything will be alright. You will survive until the end.”

Tang Xia went blank. Actually, she would easily sink in the swirl of his tenderness. Even the simple words that he said to her subconsciously stirred her blood for a long time.

She seemed about to drown in his tenderness. Then, she suddenly smiled and joked, “Don’t forget that we are rivals.”

Unexpectedly, Ye Yifan bent down and looked directly into her eyes, which looked really fervent. “And don’t you forget either that, in this game, I’ll be your knight.”

Pit-pat… Pit-pat…

Tang Xia was out of breath all of a sudden…

“Tang Xia! Pack up your belongings!”

Song Sisi’s shout startled the two of them. Tang Xia shivered at once and looked back, only to find Song Sisi glaring at her. She clutched her waist with her hands as if she were about to swallow her.

“Set out.”

Ye Yifan spoke gently. Tang Xia had to say goodbye to him bashfully.

“I’ll go now. Go to bed earlier.”

She turned around and walked towards Song Sisi, who looked as if she was about to snap her neck. Tang Xia moved over to her slowly and cast her eyes over Song Sisi.

She knew very well that Song Sisi had been burning with jealousy and that she must have gone as crazy as a rabid dog that would bite anything. She didn’t want to say a word to her, let alone have a conversation with her, for fear that she might get annoyed.

Tang Xia cast her eyes over her indifferently and passed by her as if she were nothing. When she was ignored by her, Song Sisi felt infuriated and bared her teeth, clutching at Tang Xia.

“You’d better stay away from Ye Yifan.”

Tang Xia ached as she was pulled unexpectedly. Song Sisi was pinching her with force. “This woman must have been spellbound by men!”

Although she pretended to be carefree, Song Sisi was pinching Tang Xia hard. At the moment, it felt as if she were fighting for the favor of His Majesty in a harem.

It was such a pity that she hadn’t been born in ancient times. Judging from her coquetry, scheming, and tricks, she would absolutely have been the most favored concubine of the harem. She seemed to have been born in the wrong era.

Tang Xia ripped off Song Sisi’s hands, which took her some strength. She seemed to hate Tang Xia so much.

“It’s none of your business. Fang Yan’s waiting for you there.”

Upon hearing this, Song Sisi’s face darkened at once. She had so many rich expressions. Tang Xia walked away without even looking back. She just rolled up her sleeves and looked down at her arms. As expected, they had turned purple where Son Sisi had pinched her. That woman was so horrible…

When everyone had tidied up their belongings, they went to bed in the same room. While she thought about what had happened in the daytime, including Ye Yifan’s attitude and his misleading behavior, Tang Xia couldn’t sleep. It was tranquil in the room. All she could hear was the sound of the wind blowing against the window.

Frankly speaking, this place was indeed scary. After all, the task given to her was “To Survive”, which indicated that something was bound to take place in this isolated house. Once again, someone would get injured or… die.

Even so, she was unstoppable. She would do anything to discover that guy when the next incident took place! She didn’t have a clue about Zhang Yaoyao’s death. After all, there seemed to be no evidence to be found…

While thinking about this, Tang Xia started feeling hazy and became sleepier. As she was about to fell asleep, she seemed to hear someone pull back their quilt in a trance. Tang Xia was a little puzzled. “Is someone going out?”

She forced herself to get up subconsciously and rubbed her sleepy eyes. However, she could only see her blurry clothing… “That seems to be Song Sisi!”

Tang Xia became sober immediately. She followed her stealthily, watching Song Sisi wander in the corridor in silence as if she had lost her soul.

“Why is she getting up at midnight? The toilet isn’t in that direction if she wants to answer the call of nature.” After thinking for a while, she realized it would be bad if something happened to Song Sisi. Plus, what if she schemed to serve the devil…

“Is she Zhang Yaoyao’s murderer?”

That seemed impossible. In novels, such a brainless woman was generally bullet bait. However, just in case, she had to follow her on her tiptoes.

When she saw Song Sisi reach the end of the corridor and then turn, Tang Xia followed her hurriedly. For fear that Song Sisi might discover her, she had to pop an eye out to spy on her.

As she looked over, she didn’t see anybody in that long corridor!

Tang Xia felt her back shiver suddenly. “How? How could a living person disappear into the air? Is there really a ghost?”

“What happened?” Tang Xia rushed over immediately but did not even find a door in the corridor. She began shivering slightly. “How could she disappear into thin air within a few seconds, when there wasn’t even a door?” Tang Xia’s heart was beating wildly.

She had to go back! She had to go back! Otherwise, she would be killed next!

As she thought of this, she turned toward the bedroom at once. Bang! The sound of bodies bumping into each other was heard.

“Ah—”

Tang Xia had turned back without taking any precautions and rushed into something. She was scared out of her mind. She screamed and closed her eyes, too afraid to see what it was. After the weird death she had just witnessed, she could not believe that anything good could possibly be behind her at midnight!

The thing behind her had been silent for a long time. She didn’t really have the courage to open her eyes.

“No!” She had promised Ye Yifan to survive until the end. Upon thinking of this, she covered her aching forehead with her hand and got ready to look up.

“Why did you go out at such a late time?”

Tang Xia opened her eyes instantly and looked at the person in front of her, only to find Fang Yan staring at her in bewilderment.

“Why was there no sound as you walked? Why didn’t you say anything when you were behind me for such a long time?”

Tang Xia was somewhat annoyed because she had really been scared to death!

“That was you! You’ve been wandering in the corridor stealthily for a long time. Tell me, what are you doing?”

After getting herself together, Tang Xia looked into Fang Yan’s face and spoke up.

“I followed Song Sisi out because I saw her suddenly walk out alone. She didn’t go to the bathroom. I was afraid that something bad might happen to her, so I followed her out.”

Fang Yan snorted. “You’re talking nonsense. I just saw Song Sisi sleeping in the room.”

Tang Xia was stunned. How could this happen? Song Sisi had gotten up and she had followed her here!

“You are talking nonsense! What are you doing here in the corridor at midnight?”

Fang Yan laughed abruptly. “I was going to the bathroom but saw you here acting all stealthy, so I followed you. I never thought that you would put the blame on me instead!”

Had she put the blame on him? Tang Xia became angrier. Anyway, she was his ex-girlfriend, whom he had just broken up with. How could he argue with her as sharply as if she had abandoned him?

“Then let’s go back and have a look! Let’s see if Song Sisi is in the room!”

Tang Xia snorted angrily and started walking back by herself. Fang Yan looked at Tang Xia’s back with a sullen face. They went back to the room successively, with different thoughts on their minds.

Tang Xia insisted that what she had seen just now had been Song Sisi. Otherwise, how could she have heard that sound and woken up? How could she have gone there?

Unfortunately, the instant Tang Xia pushed the door open, she was startled. Song Sisi was sleeping soundly on her bed.

How could this happen? Had she just had an illusion? But who had made the sound she had heard? She never sleepwalked. Had it been a ghost? No, no. This was the real world. How could there be ghosts?

As Tang Xia felt bewildered, Fang Yan pulled her over. Tang Xia frowned at once. “These two are really members of the same family. They both pull me instead of talking to me directly. They even pulled me by the same part of my arm!”

Upon recalling how her arm had turned purple after being pinched by Song Sisi, she instantly felt infuriated. She threw his hand away, stunning Fang Yan suddenly.

“Just speak!”

Fang Yan bridled up at once. “She’s so irrational!”

“Why did you hang out alone at midnight? Do you have any secrets?”

Secrets? What kind of secrets could she have? As she looked at Fang Yan, who seemed to firmly believe that she had done something evil, Tang Xia suddenly wanted to throw him down the cliff and let him experience a landslide. Wasn’t it illegal to kill someone here?

“What kind of secret could I have?”

Fang Yan, who seemed to have expected her to deny this, sneered at her.

“You killed Zhang Yaoyao, didn’t you?”

Tang Xia raised her head at once and shouted.

“How could I do this? Why would I kill her?”

How could this man connect Zhang Yaoyao’s death to her? How evil was she in his eyes?

Although she had always considered Fang Ya a scumbag, she now wanted to update this image to one of a mindless man. After all, most men would not treat their girlfriends so heartlessly right after breaking up with them. Now, he even wondered whether she was a murderer.

Fang Yan snorted. “Who knows why you killed her?”

At this point, Song Sisi was woken up by Tang Xia’s shout. She frowned and got up as she shouted, “What are you shouting about at such a late hour instead of being in bed?”

Tang Xia was at a loss for words as she was blamed. Fang Yan glared at Tang Xia and then turned back to coax Song Sisi.

Unsatisfied as Song Sisi was, she didn’t say anything else out of sleepiness. She liked to have her beauty sleep.

The three of them went to bed with different thoughts in their minds.

Tang Xia pulled back her quilt and went back to her bed. She found it more and more strange after arranging her thoughts and she doubted if Fang Yan and Song Sisi had played a trick on her together!
