Chapter 216

Chapter 92.4 Ill-Fated Love (4)

Ye Sui was thinking when suddenly, a rumbling thunder came from the distance. The sound only rang for a moment and then stopped.

In a short time, it began to rain rapidly. The clear night sky was now gray, as if it had been covered with a dull curtain.

The rain was so heavy that it was difficult to see ahead. The pedestrians hurried through the streets with umbrellas in hand. No one wanted to stay outside in this rain.

At this time, the rain turned into a downpour. Water drops dripped down her nose, which seemed to be a dangerous omen.

Ye Sui looked at this gloomy day, and suddenly her heart welled up with inexplicable panic, her heartbeat increasing. It was as if something was pounding her heart, and it made her feel terrible.

Ye Sui bowed her head and took out the note given to her by the fortune-teller. As she opened it carefully, her hands trembled. The paper spread out, revealing the handwriting on it.

Ye Sui looked at it carefully, for fear of misreading. There were only a few words written on the note.

A life for a life.

Ye Sui’s thoughts churned. Maybe if Chen Shu wanted to get through this disaster, he must fight with his life. She had never imagined that the impending crisis would involve death!

She continued to think. ‘A life for life, that is, one life person lives and the other dies. Whose death would it take to exchange for Chen Shu’s life?’

‘What if… that person is me?’

Ye Sui bit her lips. If Chen Shu was in danger, what would she do at that moment? At once, she had a definite answer in her heart: She didn’t want Chen Shu to suffer any harm.

No matter how many times she pondered, she would always choose to do so and protect the person she loved.

At this moment, a sudden gust of wind swept past Ye Sui’s fingertips. She lost her grip, and the note slipped from her hand.

Ye Sui bent down and tried to catch the note, but she failed. Eventually, it hit the floor and became soaked, the words gradually blurring.

Ye Sui looked at it blankly. The panic in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

She suddenly recalled Old Master Chen’s words. He had told her that a fortune-teller once said that Chen Shu was ill-fated, and it was hard for him to survive past thirty.

But Chen Shu had been in good health since she got married. So she more and more felt that this was impossible.

But now, this thing was clearly revealed in front of Ye Sui. The old woman told her that Chen Shu would have an accident, while the fortune teller said that Chen Shu could not live more than thirty …

The pieces of dominoes collided with each other in a seemingly coincidental manner, but it was more like pre-ordained.

Ye Sui vividly remembered that tomorrow was Chen Shu’s 30th birthday. In other words, Chen Shu was likely to die tomorrow.

Her heart jerked. No, she must not put Chen Shu in danger.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through Ye Sui’s mind. If Chen Shu would encounter death, it was unsafe for him to walk outside.

He better stay in the hotel now, while she would stay by his side and keep staring at him. Also, the two would not go out tomorrow. Instead, they would spend the whole day together.

As Ye Sui thought about it, she was about to cry. The idea of Chen Shu in danger made it difficult for her to control her emotions.

But she knew that at this moment, she must be calm; otherwise, she would only be in a state of confusion and mess up everything.

With trembling hands, Ye Sui picked up the phone. She wanted to call Chen Shu, but her hand was shaking. Her mobile phone almost fell to the ground.

Ye Sui’s hand crossed the screen, but she was so nervous that she almost dialed the wrong number.

Ye Sui murmured to herself, “Don’t panic. Be calm…” She couldn’t let Chen Shu find anything strange.

Ye Sui took a deep breath and found the correct number. This time, the number was dialed, and after only a few seconds, the call connected.

In the silence, Ye Sui seemed to hear Chen Shu’s gentle breathing. She tried her best to control her emotions as she called his name, “Chen Shu.”

In the pouring rain, Chen Shu’s clear voice sounded and gently reached Ye Sui’s ear. “Hmm.”

Not knowing Ye Sui’s current thoughts, he asked with concern, “It’s raining now. Have you brought an umbrella?”

Ye Sui looked at the rain falling like a waterfall, and her anxiety became more intense. She called his name again, “Chen Shu.”

“What’s wrong?”

Chen Shu’s voice was gentle, like the quietest wind, which seemed to dispel all her uneasiness.

Ye Sui could even imagine Chen Shu’s expression when he said this sentence. When he saw that it was raining, his first reaction was whether she would get wet.

But being so good, why must he face tomorrow’s disaster?

Ye Sui sniffed, eyes full of tears. She adjusted her mood, her voice still trembling a bit, “Chen Shu, let’s go back to the hotel now.”
