To Love You Again

Chapter 487 - Xiong Wuyue's Life

Warning: Very slight gore.

*****

The four corners of the room were devoid of windows.

There was only one heavy metal door, and a locked dump chute. The lights were off, except for the faint dot of light on the pinhole camera in one corner.

There was a repugnant smell of rust reeking in the air.

It was very silent, except for the occasional sounds of droplets.

The woman on top of the metallic bed twitched.

Her previously unmoving eyelids flickered. Her limbs were freezing cold, as if her hands and feet would have frostbites soon, but there seemed to be thousands of ants inside her body, constantly biting her internal organs and bones, lighting up a fire in her. Her body was screaming for something.

The intense craving drowned her, familiar but way more powerful than she ever felt.

For a long time, she curled up shivering, while unintelligible groans grumbled from her throat. This intense craving was too powerful that she did not feel the pain from the wounds of her body for a while.

It was growing more intense.

Give me…

I need it... give it to me…!

I need it now…!

However, when Xiong Wuyue opened her swollen eyes laboriously, she could not see anything.

It was totally dark.

Her mind muddled by the biting pain of her insides failed to remember her current situation.

Where was she…?

After her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she finally saw the silhouette of the room.

There was no other furniture in the room, except for the luxuriously soft couch where the man had sat down once he was tired.

Her eyes dilated.

…!!!

Remembering the inhumane torture that she had just experienced, Xiong Wuyue felt the hair on every inch of her body rise.

Terror enveloped her again. Along with this, her mind finally recognized the pain of the wounds on her body.

"Mnngrrhh…!"

Her eyes unfocused as she was once again attacked by waves of pain.

She had received countless wounds on her entire body, from small scratches of knives, stabs, slices, to many parts of her skin scr.a.p.ed off.

She felt immense pain in her bones due to the small needles he inserted onto her legs and arms.

Images of how the tall, shadowy figure had kicked and slammed her on the walls resurfaced in her mind.

Xiong Wuyue had never suffered like this in her entire life. For a moment, she was confused by nightmare and reality. However, the pain that continuously racked her body reminded her that she had just suffered cruelty and inhumane beating under his hands.

Xiong Wuyue's trembling increased violently.

That demon…!

That inhuman and perverted demon had a problem in his mind!

He was a murderer! A killer!

A hideous, insane man who wore human clothing!

Xiong Wuyue had now the courage to curse at that beast now that he was gone. No matter how much she had pleaded earlier, he did not stop and continue torturing her with a smile, saying that under his hands, she would not die easily.

It was true. She did not die. However, she was slowly nearing towards death.

Xiong Wuyue wanted to move, but she had no strength left.

Along with the muddied blood that had spread on the bed and down on the floor, she could feel her life fading.

She even wondered how she was alive until now, after being tortured like that.

Tears streamed down the sides of her face.

"Uuwuuu…"

How could the majestic Xiong Wuyue fall to this extent?

The glorious woman on a stunning dress, walking on red carpets with flashing cameras… that should have been her…!

Xiong Wuyue struggled.

With a dull thud, she fell of the bed.

The drop had immobilized her for a long time and took the wind from her lungs. She laid down on the murky pool of blood curled up in pain.

Then, with the last remaining energy she could muster, she slowly crawled towards the gorgeous couch.

She did not want to die on the cold, hard ground like an animal.

She was Xiong Wuyue, she only… only deserved the best…

Behind her was a bloody trail.

She felt that her whole body was in unprecedented pain, but with single-minded obsession, she still crawled.

"Dad..." A sob broke out.

Besides her unfulfilled dream, there was only one person who filled her mind. Images of the doting smile of her father as he gently patted her head. How he had supported her all throughout her career. How proud he had looked as he praised her in front of everyone.

Would she die here without her dear father knowing?

Sob.

She could not believe that her ending would be in this dark and cold room.

"Dad..." She crawled slowly, her bloodied hands reaching forward.

There was a saying, that one's life would flash in their eyes when they were about to die.

Right now, Xiong Wuyue could see her life flashing past her eyes.

She was a princess.

A beautiful princess who was everybody's favorite.

She was her daddy's beloved and her mommy's treasure.

Whenever she reached out her hands, she would be able to get anything she wanted.

The little Xiong Wuyue even believed that if she asked for the stars and the moon from her daddy, her daddy would give it to her.

Like what everyone always said, she was the best princess in the world, everyone's favorite!

She lived happily in the world that revolved around her only.

Until one day, there came a wish of hers which could not be granted.

Her mother was about to attend a banquet overseas, when her plane crashed.

For the first time, little Xiong Wuyue first encountered loneliness and having unable to get something she wished for.

Little Xiong Wuyue stood in front of her mother's coffin with wide eyes.

Today was her mother's last day of glory.

Yet...

Why...

Why were there only a few people who came to bid goodbye to her mommy?

"Daddy, I thought mom was famous."

Xiong De, still a handsome young father, picked up the little girl and hugged her with a depressed voice.

"…Someone more famous than your mother died. They went there first. They'll come later."

Little Xiong Wuyue instantly understood.

There was someone greater than her mother.

There was actually someone more beautiful, more charming, and more prestigious than her mommy?

Little Xiong Wuyue was unsatisfied. She was the best child in the world, so her mother was the best mom as well.

"Who is it?"

Xiong De gave a bitter smile, then walked through a long hallway, towards the other larger hall where many powerful people in black clothes gathered.

Everyone was crowded in this more regal place. The funeral hall where little Xiong Wuyue's mother was currently at paled in comparison to this place. The place here was more solemn and had more people saying their goodbyes.

And in this place, the little Xiong Wuyue who was always everyone's favorite, did not enter everyone's eyes today. They did not greet her like they used to. She was like another 'someone' in the entrance.

"Daddy, are these people blind?" Xiong Wuyue asked, stunned and aggrieved.

How could these people not greet the world's favorite?

"Wuyu'er, this is the main Xiong family's funeral. They will always be the first in everyone's eyes, and we are always the second. I'm sorry, I couldn't give a glamorous funeral for your mother," Xiong De said sorrowfully with gloomy eyes.

He was not happy that his wife was neglected in the other hall, while this place was crowded with people's condolences.

"…Even in death, we will always be the main family's shadow…"

It was unfair.

Little Xiong Wuyue then understood that this was the place where the person who was more amazing than her mother was in.

She walked and looked around.

What did this person look like? How could that person trample on her mother like this? It's not allowed! Hmph!

She then saw a little girl sitting on the first row, surrounded by a.d.u.l.ts.

"Daddy, who is she?"Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #'s-life_51789017745773498 for visiting.

"She is the Young Miss of our family."

Little Xiong Wuyue was stunned.

There was another young miss other than her?

"But aren't I the young miss?" Tears acc.u.mulated in her large eyes.

Xiong De kissed her daughter's head distressedly.

He whispered, "Right now, you aren't the young miss of the main Xiong family yet. But once daddy is seated on the highest positon, you will be the only young miss of the family."

Little Xiong Wuyue who was educated by Xiong De understood.

She was not the only favorite of the world.

There was actually someone more loved by the world than her.
