Appearance of gloom

BANG!

"PAN XINYI!" A voice roared as soon as the door was pushed open. "What are you doing?"

The three people in the office turned to look at Xu Suisui who was slightly panting and sweating. He was wearing a pair of glasses with a golden chain and a loose-fitting beige shirt with knee-length shorts. 

He looked youthful and beautiful with his brown hair tousled and styled. 

"Suisui?" 

"Don't call my name with those filthy lips of yours!" Xu Suisui seemed to have eaten a barrel of gunpowder before coming to Pan Xinyi's office. He exploded the very second he entered the office.

Pan Xinyi's complexion turned pale when she heard Xu Suisui say that her lips were filthy. In the past how many times have he kissed these lips of hers but now suddenly they were filthy for him? 

"Busted," Luo Huian whistled, seemingly enjoying the show. 

Pan Xinyi turned to glare at the woman as she knew that Luo Huian must be the one who told Xu Suisui about this matter. 

She heaved a sigh and then calmly began speaking, "I just wanted to ask Miss Luo to stay away from you and Delan——"

"Who are you to tell An An such a thing?" Xu Suisui sneered. He walked over to where Luo Huian was sitting and then said, "She was the one who saved me when I was about to kill myself. She was the one who helped me out when I needed you the most. Compared to you, she had done a lot for me, now you want to snatch her away from me as well?" 

"Will you be only happy when I die, Pan Xinyi?" 

"Kill, what do you mean by that?" Pan Xinyi was stunned when she heard Xu Suisui say that he was about to die. 

Xu Suisui snorted and said, "Since you didn't care about me and your daughter for a year, then there is no need for you to care about us anymore. We will be just fine without you."

Upon hearing his words, Pan Xinyi had a feeling that something was very wrong. 

"What do you mean?" Even though she knew that it was nothing good, Pan Xinyi wanted to see how far Xu Suisui was going to go for Luo Huia. 

She had expected many things but the second Xu Suisui opened his mouth, he spat three words that Pan Xinyi never thought that she would hear coming from him. 

"I want a divorce." 

Pan Xinyi's pupils tightened while Du Mumu cheered inwardly. He knew that Xu Suisui was a mer who could not even withstand a grain of sand in his eyes. But he never knew that Xu Suisui was such a strong-minded mer. 

"You…what did you say?" Pan Xinyi asked as if she did not hear what Xu Suisui said to her. 

Upon seeing her react as if she had not expected such a thing, Xu Suisui shook his head and turned to look at Luo Huian. He said to her, "Let us go." 

He didn't want to stay here anymore. Who knows what kind of things Pan Xinyi must have done with Du Mumu in her office? 

He was not against her marrying another mer as it was normal even the government allowed high-class hunters to have more than two husbands such that they would give birth to more S-class hunters. 

But the bottom line was that she chose someone proper. Du Mumu was anything but proper. He was scheming and cruel. 

For the sake of getting what he wanted he almost killed him. 

Xu Suisui would rather divorce Pan Xinyi instead of getting involved with a mer like that.

"Leave? Why should we leave? The good show is about to begin," said Luo Huian as she turned to look a Pan Xinyi who was holding her head with both of her hands. 

A painful expression was etched on her face. 

"What do you——"

Xu Suisui did not get a chance to finish his sentence as Pan Xinyi's face twisted into something malevolent. Black fumes started to erupt from her eyes and mouth as she looked at Xu Suisui and Du Mumu in panic. 

"H..help me," she spoke in a hoarse voice as the back of her skin slowly started to elongate, her spine grew like that of an animal while her eyes started to turn red with a black hue. 

"Ahhh!! It's a Gloom!" Du Mumu screamed and rushed past everyone and did not even look at Pan Xinyi, whose body was slowly being torn apart. 

Xu Suisui on the other hand rushed towards Pan Xinyi. "Xinyi!"

Before losing consciousness, Pan Xinyi faced the kindness and ruthlessness of the two mers she had loved. Her eyes turned red as she pushed Xu Suisui who was running towards her with her hand that had turned thin like a branch with long fingers that had claws sharper than beasts. 

She didn't even know when a Gloom infested inside her body. If she had known then this wouldn't have happened. 

No wonder, her feelings were all over the place. 

ROAR!

The Gloom that infested itself inside Pan Xinyi took control of her body completely. 

Soon neither Luo Huian nor Xu Suisui could see Pan Xinyi who was swallowed by the Gloom that had gotten stronger and powerful enough after feasting on Pan Xinyi's insecurities, frustration and fears. 

"Xinyi!" Xu Suisui screamed in agony when he watched his wife turn into a Gloom. His eyes turned red as he stared at the Gloom, he knew that there was no coming back from this. 

Now that his wife had turned into a Gloom, she had become a danger to society and the people living in it. 

As there was no way to save her and change her back into human again——

There was only one thing waiting for Pan Xinyi now ——

Death. 

And that too a painful one.
