A Star Reborn: The Queen’s Return

She simply said, “Hurry up and burn me if that’s what you want, don’t dilly-dally.” She had made up her mind. Once the cigarette butt burned her, she would fight with one eye and end his life!

“Why aren’t you begging me?” The cigarette butt seemed closer, and so was his voice.

Xia Yingluo was tense all over, but her voice was cold. “I never begged anyone.” She was the daughter of the Phoenix, and would rather die than beg someone. Her pride seemed to be innate, imprinted in her soul and absolutely unchangeable.

Wei Lingnan stared down at her. “Really…?”

He suddenly laughed. “I can’t bear to burn such beautiful eyes.”

The burning sensation on her eyelids disappeared, and before she could heave a sigh of relief, she suddenly felt a burning pain in her heart, which took her breath away. Opening her eyes, she saw the cigarette butt being twisted between his fingers mercilessly on her left chest, the place closest to her heart. Like a red soldering iron, it soon left a vulnerable scar.

“What are you doing!” She was in pain and angry, so she reached out to push him.

He grabbed her by the hand and said, “This is interest, Ah Luo.”

What interest? She didn’t understand what he was talking about and just screamed. “Are you crazy! Who is your Ah Luo?”

He smiled and leaned down to kiss her. “Have you forgotten? You pierced my chest with your claws then and almost dug out my heart. You said I could never get you… but now I have you, Ah Luo. I can’t bear to dig out your heart,” he said, stroking the cigarette burn on her chest, like a cinnabar mark left on a lover’s heart, “Only then will you remember me.”

“You’ve mistaken me for someone else!” Xia Yingluo was going crazy. How could she be so unlucky to have provoked this self-talking crazy man? She knew herself that she had never killed anyone in her life, and even when she had secretly joined her Second Brother in battles, it had just been to watch the crowd, how could she have dug someone’s heart out with a claw? Did he think she was a demon?!

The person in front must be a neuropathy!

As soon as she thought that she had been given her first time to a crazy man, she wanted to cry…

The madman was still stroking her. His breathing gradually got heavier and he separated her fair and slender legs, about to assault her again. She was frightened and scolded loudly as she struggled. “You’re crazy! Stop!”

He ignored her and left long and overbearing kisses all over her.

Xia Yingluo panicked, full of anger and humiliation. The painful memories of last night came to her mind again. No… she wouldn’t encounter it again!

It was too late to think, and she desperately searched for something that could use within her sight. She reached out and overturned the wine rack, and the expensive red wine fell down and landed on the two of them.

The bright red wine flowed on them, and the broken glass on the ground cut through her skin.

She didn’t care about the pain. She grabbed half of the broken wine bottle and stabbed him severely. He did not escape and was stabbed straight. The sharp glass shards deeply penetrated into his body and blood flowed instantly, dying half of his body crimson.

He stopped encroaching on her and met her eyes with his. No emotion was reflected in his cold pupils.

She was frightened by his appearance and shrank back with her hands and feet, her mind full of incoherent thoughts. Would he die? Taking a closer look at the wound, she saw it was on her shoulder and shouldn’t be life-threatening, so he wouldn’t die, right?

She was somehow relieved at this thought.

However, she suddenly wondered if he had lost his mobility? If she ran like this, could she escape? While thinking quickly, she instinctively grabbed a half-broken wine bottle again and looked at him vigilantly with a pair of crystal eyes. If he tried anything, she would be ready to hit him fiercely again.

He looked at her and smiled slowly.

She was so nervous. “What are you laughing at?”

“I’m laughing at you…” His low magnetic voice was like a mysterious ice field, and while talking, he pulled out the broken wine bottle that had been deeply inserted into his shoulder. “You’re so naive. Did you think you could hurt me?”

Xia YIngluo’s eyes widened in shock—

She saw the wound on his shoulder pierced by her heal at a speed visible to the naked eye. The flesh rolled, the deep blood caves disappeared within a few seconds, and his muscle essence was as good as ever. If not for his body still being covered with blood traces, she would have suspected she was dreaming.

Monster…

He was a monster!

Such cognition suddenly broke into Xia Yingluo’s brain. No normal person in this world could recover from the wound at such a terrible speed! She was frightened, so she grabbed the burgundy bedding, covered herself, and ran outside, barefooted, nearly tripping several times in the middle. She escaped without looking back.

The service staff in the hallway looked at her strangely. A naked girl with loose hair running out of a room in a panic was too ridiculous. But she couldn’t care so much, she didn’t know how long she ran, how many people she bumped into, but when she stopped, she found she had entered a compartment in the women’s bathroom and was leaning back against the partition, gasping for breath.

Her surroundings were quiet. It seemed he hadn’t come chasing after her.

Xia Yingluo was shocked senseless. She recalled everything that had just happened and felt as though she was messed up. She even fell into deep self-doubt, did she really stab him just now? Did she really see his wound heal that quickly? Could it be her own dazzle, or an illusion out of panic? How could there be such a person in this world… how could there be such a monster?

She gasped for a long time before calming herself down.

No, don’t think about him. She hoped they would never bump into each other ever again in their lives. Everything last night was regarded as a nightmare.

Her top priority was to leave the casino and leave all these messy and unreasonable things behind.

Xia Yingluo took a deep breath. Her hands still shaking, she grabbed the wine red silk satin quilt and tore it apart. She pulled out the inner down and wrapped the outer silk satin carefully on her body, making a homemade long dress.

She had always loved beautiful things since she was a child, and she had a good taste for fashion. The wine red silk satin was made perfect by her clever hands, and it was not inferior to the new big-name dresses of the season. After dressing herself up, she went out of the cubicle, sorted out her messy long hair in the bathroom mirror, and went out with a pair of thin, white feet.

The rooms in the casino were built like a maze. She didn’t know how long she had walked until she met a waiter.

In front of the other person who was looking at her bare feet weirdly, she smiled and said, “I came out in a rush and forgot to wear shoes. Handsome guy, would you help me get a pair of shoes?”
