Chapter 86: 086 What does someone else’s life have to do with me?
“Think you can escape? Don’t even dream about it! Even at the ends of the earth, you won’t slip away from the palm of my hand.”
The man was gnashing his teeth, the hatred and venom on his face impossible to conceal.
Nighttime, outside the rental house.
A black Audi slowly came to a stop on the opposite side of the road, its dark lines blending into the night.
Inside the car, Su Ran was dressed casually, with sneakers on her feet. Her long hair was completely hidden under a hat, her figure tall and slender. Even in this desolate place, her lazy yet glamorous aura was inescapable.
She looked up at the starless, moonless sky. The evening’s crescent moon had already hidden behind the clouds, leaving nothing but desolation, aside from an abandoned factory and a few dilapidated houses.
The surroundings were quiet and eerie, the lights flickering. A breeze swept through, causing a ‘rustle’ that was inexplicably creepy.
A dark and stormy night, an ideal time for murder and arson.
Indeed, it was the perfect place.
Su Ran let out a light chuckle, pulled her hat down a bit more, opened the car door, and got out, dragging a golf club along.
“Coward, ran so fast, and still thinks he can catch me? Doesn’t even look at what he is.”
The tone was sharp and mean, nasty and arrogant.
The door was kicked open with force.
A slow, amused chuckle sounded.
The man was startled and suddenly stood up.
In the dim light, a tall, slender figure stood silhouetted against the doorway. The woman wore a baseball cap, her facial expression unseen. Holding a golf club in her right hand, her voice was distant and cold, giving one an involuntary shiver.
The man looked at Su Ran somberly, his voice trembling slightly.
“You forgot me so soon?”
Su Ran slowly raised her head, and her exquisite, cool face caught his eye. Her brows and eyes were radiant and reckless, her gaze bold and teasing.
Su Ran slightly curled her lips, a chill flashing in her eyes.
The man glared at her with a vicious expression, wishing he could tear her apart with his gaze.
“Su Ran, what do you want to do?”
Su Ran looked at him and chuckled light-heartedly, her tone pregnant with meaning.
“What do I want to do? I said we would meet again soon. Isn’t this me coming especially to find you?”
At her words, the man’s pupils constricted, staring at her in disbelief.
“You… You knew all along?”
Ignoring him, she dragged the club slowly toward the man. The sharp, grating sound of the club scraping the ground seemed to send chills down his spine.
“Wu He, I’ve been looking for you for quite some time.”
Having his name called out, the man quieted down, fixing Su Ran with a sinister look. His pale, sickly face twisted instantly.
“Su Ran, I really underestimated you. How does it feel to be attacked online?”
Wu He’s face was gleeful, and he looked triumphantly at Su Ran, fearless.
“So, you were behind those cyberbullying incidents as well?”
Su Ran looked at him indifferently, her tone cold.
“Don’t you know that because of your inflammatory and baseless talk, several people have already lost their lives?”
“Hahaha… Su Ran, you’re still so overly sympathetic. What do the lives of others have to do with me?”
Su Ran’s eyes turned cold, her gaze sharp as a knife.
“It seems I can’t expect to reason with you.”
Wu He sneered contemptuously.
“Talk about morality? You’re not worthy.”
