The Anarchic Consort

Chapter 1056 Do Not Expect To Ever See Her Again

Lan Ya was not sure if he would have dated Xiao Ziqiu if the contract did not exist in the past.When she thought of it, her heart hurt terribly as if it was gnawed by a spider.

She realized that it might be why he hated her so much that he felt extremely irritated by her every day.

He kicked her out late at night, because he would treat her kindly with patience.

Lan Ya had no idea what the shop owner said to him to make him agree to help her.

After she had left the bar, she had been wandering around, as she seemed to be unable to find her way back to Lan family’s house.

If she had not heard his voice, she would have most probably been dragged away by the other evil spirits.

Lan Ya laughed quietly to herself.

This should be the best possible outcome.

Lan Ya knew very well that the shop owner must have told Chen Zhendong about her car accident to persuade him to help her.

Chen Zhendong was smart enough to think of the cause when he saw the place of the accident.

She did not want him to feel that she was in a car accident because of him.

She did not want him to feel guilty about it.

Now that he had helped the shop owner to retrieve her soul, it should slightly alleviate his worries, thus making it easier for him to be with Xiao Ziqiu.

She actually did not want to let him know that she had an accident.

However, since he had discovered the truth, there was nothing she could do about it.

She wanted him to know that she would not pester him anymore.

Nevertheless, he did not seem to believe it.

Lan Ya shook her head with a bitter smile.

However, she knew him too well. Through this incident, she could tell that he still had some feelings for her.

She thought that he had nothing but contempt for her.

However, it turned out that it was not true.

That was enough for her.

Otherwise, she really could not stand it if the person she had loved for her entire life, would hate her forever.

Even if she was to die, she did not want it to be this way.

After all, it would be too miserable and disappointing.

She had given so much love to one person.

However, she never expected to receive anything in return. Nevertheless, she hoped that he would at least not despise her. Unlike his assumption, she was not someone that would use every despicable method to get him.

She always hoped that their relationship could be more simple.

However, she had used the wrong way to start the relationship.

Now, she could finally detect some panic on his face.

Perhaps, he would still worry about her.

Nevertheless, that was not the love she ever wanted.

Lan Ya glanced at Chen Zhendong for the last time. After the Soul Returning Lights were extinguished, her soul also disappeared into the wispy white mist.

The scenes of the empty streets started to revolve again.

Chen Zhendong slowly opened his eyes as he woke from the pain. He could move now, but he strangely could not see anyone around him.

He leaned against the cold metal beside him, thinking that he would be able to see her safe and sound when he woke up.

However, all he could only see was a girl in kasaya and a silent boy.

He stood up with a rush, but his stomach ached terribly. He mustered up the courage and asked the dreaded question, “Did it fail? Why am I all right?”

“It did not fail.” Helian Wei Wei’s voice was very calm as she said, “What the Soul Returning Light originally needed is not the date and time of your birth, but Lan Ya’s. I was merely lying to you just now, you don’t actually have to sacrifice your lifespan for her. It’s just that opening the Path of Yin and Yang will attract a lot of evil spirits, and they will usually drag humans down with them. Of course, you are safe with me here.”

Chen Zhendong no longer cared about her lies and hurriedly asked, “How about Lan Ya? Where is she?”

“Since the Soul Returning Lights have been extinguished, this means that she has returned to her body. Your obsession is still necessary to retain the soul. She should be in the hospital, but I’m not sure if she is awake now.” Helian Wei Wei saw her prayer beads shone again, which meant that she had completed another merit. Thus, she was not worried about Lan Ya’s problems.

Chen Zhendong stood up with one hand, whispered a thank you to Helian Wei Wei, and left to look for someone.

Helian Wei Wei looked at his back and opened her mouth again, “Although I lied to you about taking your lifespan, everything else is true. Lan Ya will never treat you the same as she did before. Mr. Chen, it would be better for you to prepare yourself mentally.”

Chen Zhendong was stunned momentarily. After stopping for a few seconds, he hastily headed to the hospital that he would not usually step into.

He wanted Lan Ya to be the first person she saw when she woke up.

However, he was too naive.

Lan Ya’s brother, Lan Shi, gave him the cold shoulder when he saw him. He turned away and immediately instructed the bodyguard hired by the Lan Family to stand guard in one of the corridors of the hospital.

That shop owner was right.

The Lan family has started to try and separate me from Lan Ya.

I must not let it go on like this.

They should at least let me sit and wait at a place where I can see her.

However, it was clear as day that Lan Shi deeply despised him. Otherwise, he would not completely treat him so antagonistically and merely sneered, “What are you doing here?”

“I would like to see her,” he said honestly.

However, Lan Shi refused to believe him and growled, “Did Uncle Chen ask you to come here? Actually, this is not necessary. My sister has been strong-willed since she was young. She may be fooled once, but she would not fall for the same trick the second time. Just leave and go on with your own life. In the future, don’t ever come here and pretend to care for her. There’s no need to force her to keep quiet about certain things, to ensure the relationship between the Chen family and Lan family is cordial anymore. Our Lan family never cares about these anyway. Similarly, if a trashy man like you ever comes near her again, I will drive them far away.”

Chen Zhendong could not refute Lan Shi’s words, as he really did force her to do all those things.

Nevertheless, this time, he really did not harbor any evil intentions at all.

I just really want to see her.

Just a glance, please.

However, Lan Shi merely stared at him indifferently without any emotions on his expression. “Chen Zhendong, do you have any idea when she was sent here? It was May 23, five days have passed since then. Even those who are not close to her have come to visit her. However, you’re the last one to arrive. I’m her brother, and she’s the only daughter of the Lan Family. She might not be that gentle, but she would never trouble anyone.”

“Perhaps, I should have stopped her when she came back three years ago. At that time, her body was shaking in joy when she told me that both of you are in a relationship. Do you know what is at the end of this corridor? It’s a sterile ward. In the past few days, I’ve seen her being revived twice. Each time, it seemed that she was really going to die. All of this happened because no one was there on time when she met the car accident.”

He continued angrily, “Chen Zhendong, you were in the hospital that day, and you clearly know how close you were to the accident site. But, what were you doing at that time? Chit-chatting with a female doctor? You were doing a disservice to her right when she was losing her life! I will not tell my dad or Uncle Chen, however, Chen Zhendong, don’t you ever think of seeing Lan Ya again!”
