80 1.3.2: Not Him

When she returned to the room, she noticed that Qiang Yue was still slumped down in desolation.

He would occasionally stare at his father, but otherwise, keep his head bowed.

"Yunhua...?" His hoarse voice broke her heart to pieces.

She swallowed down her pity and lied, "Sorry, it seems like I have to go home because there's been a mishap. Before anything, do you want for me to stay with you?"

Of course he did, but Qiang Yue didn't want to be selfish and hold her back because of his dilemmas.

So instead, he shook his head. "I'll survive. Text me when you get home safely okay?"

"What are you going to do?" She saw his eyes clouded with sadness, so she had to know what he was going to do.

He only smiled tight-lipped and shook his head.

"I'll be heading home for a shower and to arrange the funeral arrangements. Don't worry."

Of course she worried!

This man looked like he was on the verge of collapse from all the weight on his shoulders.

In the end, she sympathetically nodded and left, leaving him alone to ponder on what he should do next.

When Xiao Yunhua arrived at Wang Yaowan's mansion, she was shocked to see Ni Ming smiling happily, almost like she was going to burst from the joy.

"Ni Ming?"

"Yunhua, you're back!" Ni Ming stood up to run and hug her, but she slowed down her movement and walked fast instead.

Xiao Yunhua stared at her in confusion, and Ni Ming chuckled. "Don't mind my mood, I just found something out that is making my heart beat wildly in glee!"

"Huh?"

"Sorry, I won't tell you yet!" Ni Ming winked teasingly, asking if Xiao Yunhua had eaten yet.

Xiao Yunhua tsked, "You got me curious, only to decline saying anything..."

Ni Ming playfully shook her head. "Don't worry, you'll find out soon! I just want to keep it so that Yaowan knows about it first."

Xiao Yunhua rolled her eyes, but suddenly, she had a very bad premonition.

What if the Special Target was Wang Yaowan?

How could she live with herself knowing that she destroyed the happiness of the woman in front of her.

She quickly ended the conversation with Ni Ming.

Inside of her room, she summoned herself to see Xiao Taotao again.

The little fairy was clearly startled when she saw Xiao Yunhua appear in the dimensional space again.

She cleared her throat and politely asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"I want to know who my Special Target is."

"Sorry," the little fairy shook her head, "Can't tell you."

"Then fine... Tell me whether or not it's Wang Yaowan."

The little fairy bit her bottom lip, clearly hesitant.

Before she could ask for points in compensation, Xiao Yunhua demanded, "For free! You took an extra one hundred points because you don't like calculating numbers."

Being exposed, Xiao Taotao blushed and finally took a deep breath, agreeing to admit the truth. "It's not."

"It's not what?"

"It's not Wang Yaowan."

Hearing the confirmation, Xiao Yunhua heaved a sigh of relief.

To think that she would take someone very dear from Ni Ming, just the idea was horrendous. The reality would be even worse.

"Thank you."

The little fairy was clearly startled to hear her Host thanking her, but before she could reply, Xiao Yunhua had already left.
