Chapter 396: Chapter 396 Drag You to Hell with Me_1
At night, Xu Man exited the bar, driving her car home.
As she passed through a quiet, deserted road, she noticed all the lights along it were broken.
It was envelopingly dark, a foreboding eeriness hanging in the air.
While she drove listlessly, her mind kept dwelling on Jiang Yufei.
She hoped this matter would pass soon; otherwise, living in this constant state of fear was unbearable.
As these thoughts swirled in her head, she suddenly spotted a person clad in white clothes lying in the road ahead.
Despite Xu Man jolting the steering wheel, the car still drove over the person and even hit the roadside flowerbed, causing the front of the car to cave in.
Xu Man, frightened to the point of turning pale, her eyes wide open.
What should she do? She just killed someone!
She had caused yet another death!
Xu Man gripped the steering wheel tightly, her whole body trembling.
After a moment of hesitation, she decided to drive away immediately.
No pedestrians were around, and no CCTV cameras; no one would know about the person she killed.
Xu Man shakily tried to start the car, but it wouldn’t budge.
She reached for her phone to call for help when the sound of someone lightly tapping on her window echoed in her ears.
The sound was gentle but abrupt, causing her whole body to tense up, not daring to turn her head.
From the corner of her eye, Xu Man saw a person outside her window wearing white clothes. The person’s long hair was flapping around…it looked like a female ghost!
Could it be the person she killed earlier who had come to get revenge?
Xu Man screamed and then pleaded in a voice infused with fear, “I didn’t mean to kill you. You were lying in the middle of the road! It’s not my fault, I didn’t mean to do it! Please don’t take revenge on me, please don’t come after me!”
“Xu Man, look at me. It’s me,” the person outside said suddenly.
This voice sounded familiar…
Xu Man gingerly turned her head to find Jiang Yufei’s face. She was smiling at her, but her eyes were cold, full of resentment.
Xu Man’s pupils dilated in shock. This time, she was genuinely terrified!
“You… you… aren’t you…already…” She raised a shaking finger towards Jiang Yufei, stuttering in fear.
“You killed me, Xu Man. You killed me,” Jiang Yufei said, a cold laughter accompanying her chilling voice. “Your people pushed me off that building. I died so horribly.”
“No… no….” Xu Man was gasping for breath, her body drenched in sweat in just a short while.
Unable to muster any words, she shook her head incessantly.
For the first time, she experienced genuine terror.
Terror from deep within, her blood turning to ice, her muscles rigid with fear.
Jiang Yufei leaned against the window, her eyes intensely trained on Xu Man. “Why did you have me killed? You and I had no grudges, yet why did you treat me as such? Do you realize how horrible my death was?”
“I… I didn’t… I wasn’t…”
“Then who did it, if not you!”
“It was not me, it was not me!” Xu Man shook her head desperately, her eyes shut tight, hands pressed against her ears, sobbing as she yelled, “It truly wasn’t me. Leave me alone, it wasn’t me! They killed you, not me!”
“But they were following your orders. You were the one who got me killed!”
“No… It wasn’t me…” Xu Man was now sobbing uncontrollably, her body shaking violently.
Jiang Yufei outside responded with a derisive laugh. “If you do not confess, I’ll drag you with me to Hell!”
