Side Story

Standing in front of the door for a moment, he let out a sigh. It seemed that he has been forgotten completely.

Raising his hand to input the password, as soon as his foot stepped into the house, he immediately sensed the chaotic sound of breathing. His body tensed up in an instant, and he squinted as he scanned his surroundings.

In a split second, countless possibilities flashed through his mind. Were they here seeking revenge? Or was it for something else? Was it directed at him or at Lu Miao?

Gu Shiyan suddenly felt grateful that Lu Miao had forgotten his birthday today and wasn't at home.

Based on the sounds of breathing, he tentatively judged that there were at least a dozen people in the house.

The sound of footsteps suddenly drew closer. Before he could react, there was a sharp "click," and a blue flame from a lighter illuminated the room. Then, the flickering candlelight revealed the familiar face before him.
