The Evil Circle

Let's forget about the past and give me a chance to take care of you.

Xi Wang

***

Since that day, Bai He Lian never came back. I try to look for her but I still haven't found her yet.

About the bet, I just don't want to think too much. I just want to sleep right now but the doorbell rang. I hope that's He Lian but I know it's impossible because He Lian has a key to open the door. As I open the door and startled after seeing the guests who stand in front of the door.

"That's really you!!!! How could you run away and leaves me and Mama like this!"

"What?!"

Two women who stand in front of my door are my stepmother and my stepsister. I don't understand why they appear in front of me right now. No one knows my address except...Xi Wang!

Does he give my address to them? Does he have a heart? During this time, these snakes make my life miserable and now they come here.

I tell myself that I have to be strong. I will not let them make me down. They have to take responsibility for what they did. Not me. I am so tired of them. This time I will fight them back.

"What do you say?" I said coldly.

"Fei Fei, give your money!" Mama barked at me but I ignored them.

"I don't have time or money for both of you."

"And what about Papa?"

Didn't they said if Papa has just gone to escape from the debt collector so why they are always looking for me when they need my money. Even my biological father also left me with these snakes and now why do they have to come to me just to help them? Am I not human? Am I not feeling?

"Jie, Ma, please just leave this place."

"We will not go before you give us the money!"

"Jie, are you going mad? I don't have money!"

"Fei Fei, You are an ungrateful girl!"

"Ma! How could you say that!"

Why are they always disturbing my life? Why have they sold me to pay their debt? Why do they have to look for me again? I am not a money maker machine.

'Someone please help me!' I am screaming in my heart.

"Fei Fei, who are these people?"

I turned around to see who called me. I am speechless when I see that man. Why he has come again and he just came out from my bedroom.

"How...how...how..." I am being numb when he embraces me from behind. His left arm wrapped my shoulder and another wrapped on my waist. I am shocked until the cold sweat drops on my face.

"Fei Fei, you have a handsome boyfriend, just tell him to help us, okay?"

I want to slap my stepsister right now but Xi Wang draws me closer when I am moving forward, insisting on slapping her.

"Fei Fei, he must be rich! You have to tell him to help us, right? We are Fei Fei's Mama and jiejie." My stepmother responded.

To be honest I am so embarrassed in front of him. I never know if they are so shameless. I turned my face away from him while his eyes still on me.

"Of course, I will help Fei Fei and her family."

'What?!'

I couldn't trust him. This monster will never have sincerity because he doesn't have a heart. Does he really want to trap me through my 'sick' family? Why have to be me?! Why doesn't he kill me instead?

"I will help in one condition." He said while giving his charming smile.

"Just tell us. We will do it." My stepsister doesn't know what kind of Xi Wang.

"Jie!"

"Fei Fei, why do you have to run away if you have him?!" Mama barked at me.

"I will help both of you but I need your blood."

"Blood?!"

Both of them look shocked when Xi Wang mentions blood but they are still smiling. I don't understand why they can smile in front of this dangerous creature.

"Alright!" They said.

"Then I will take your blood. Don't worry it doesn't hurt." He smirks and makes me scared. His eyes become violet suddenly. Xi Wang moving forward while Mama* and Jiejie show their wrist voluntarily and that act makes me understand Xi Wang hypnotizes them now so both of them are in unconsciousness even they are standing up in front of us now.

"What are you doing?!" I panicked when Xi Wang summoned a dagger through purple smoke and made my heart ache because that dagger popped up from my vein. "Xi Wang, don't kill them…"

"Do you still have heart for them?" He smiles. "I want to know if I want your life to change with them. Do you still have the heart to save them? Save yourself first!"

His expression now is so creepy. I can feel he really wants to kill them.

"Do you really want my life?" I asked.

"How if I want your life for their life. I don't want to help them for free and as I knew, they had sold you, right? I think you don't have reason to keep them alive. I don't want you to regret. This is your chance to kill them, no one will know."

"Please help them. Let them free."

"What?! Why do I have to let them free? Give me the reason why you want them still alive." He asked me.

His violet eyes stared at me. I know he must be confused but I just don't want to have a relationship with them. It doesn't mean, I want them to die.

"Because they are my family."

"Family?! Are you kidding me? I know you want them to die so why did you become a saint in the last moment?!" Xi Wang looks so angry but I don't understand why he has to be angry like this.

I take a deep breath. I know I really want them to die in misery but….

"They are not precious so why do you have to waste your time to kill them? Don't you want my life instead?"

"Fei Fei, you make me startled but ... alright. As long as you will be mine. Alright then, about them, I will do whatever you want. So tell me, what do you want?"

"I want them to forget all about me. I want them to never mention me." I said. Supposedly, I feel happy but my heart hurts. I don't know why this ache just appears when I remember about the scars that they had made in my life.

"Are you sure?" He asked again.

"Uhm…"

'I have to be strong!' I said to myself.

"Alright. I will do it but you have to remember about our deal. Your life is mine."

"I know. you don't need to repeat it again."

Xi Wang grabs the dagger that comes out from my vein and pierce it on my heart. I don't know why, but I don't feel any ache or hurt then my vision becomes unclear. Few seconds later vividly, I see the dagger penetrate my heart then disappear.

"What are you doing?"

He doesn't give me any response. He raises his arms and makes some formation that I don't understand.

"A girl named Luo Fei Yang is just in your dream. She will never exist in your world anymore."

I think he is starting to erase their memories about me as I wished. I am shocked when the purple smoke appears. My stepsister and Mama just disappeared in front of me then he turned around to come to me who stood behind him.

"What are you doing?" I asked again.

"I just do what you want. Now, they will never find you again. I was sent them to their place."

"Where?"

"I don't know. Fei Fei, you have to remember now you are mine."

"So do you want to kill me? My life is in your hand now."

"I want to kill you but now, I can't."

"Why?"
