Revenge Sevenfold

Lu Shen's guess was wrong.

Hui Yin had long since left the party, walking in her strappy heels along the road. She wasn't worried about that drunkard, because she knew that he would call driver Cheng to pick him up.

She was more worried about herself.

"I was already resolved to waste money on a taxi cab, but why isn't there a single one driving past here?"

She put her hands on her waist, looked at the deserted road, and grumbled a little. Perhaps the Wang family had cleared the street so that their guests could park without hassle, but this kind of arrangement...wasn't this a bit too biased against the poor who had no cars?

Hui Yin crouched down and rubbed her ankle. Her feet was starting to hurt. She picked up her phone, a bit annoyed at herself for not knowing how to contact a taxi.

There was a chat from Luo Lan, with only an emoji of a thumbs up. Hui Yin didn't reply, since she had already instructed her on what to do with the two photos.

Hui Yin stared blankly at that emoji for a moment, before slowly rousing herself. So what, so what if it was true? Since Luo Lan had given her a thumbs up, then that meant that everything went according to plan.

It just meant that Nian Zhen was telling the truth in her past life, that's all.

They really kissed...

Hui Yin shook her head, and took a deep breath. If she kept taking two steps back for each one step forward, then she would never really move on.

She dialed a familiar number in her phone, inelegantly sitting down on the curb.

"Hn, it's me. I'm near Wang Yong's villa. Can you come here within ten minutes? I need you."

Hui Yin sighed, resting her chin on her palm.

At least her much needed driver was coming...

...

Jiang's family home.

Jiang Xu fell off his water bed with a sick thud, along with his pillows and a thick mass of cat-patterned blanket.

He gazed at the ceiling of his bedroom, seemingly numb to the pain.

—I need you.

I need you, I need you, I need you, I need you...

The words echoed again and again inside his mind like a curse, making him feel dazed.

Was he having an auditory hallucination?

Did his Wifey really call him and said those words?

It seemed too good to be true.

He pinched his arm.

It doesn't seem like a dream.

Did it really happen?

—Can you come here within ten minutes?

He abruptly jumped to his feet, feeling as if his whole body was being electrocuted. Not only ten minutes, he felt like he could go and fly there right now!

He had decided to reject Wang Yong's birthday invitation because he'd rather sleep than waste energy on a stupid party, but he hadn't known that his Wifey was going to be there! If he had known, he would have certainly been the first to arrive.

Consciously aware that he had only been given a grace period of ten minutes, Jiang Xu didn't bother to change and charged straight out of his room wearing his cat pajamas.

And so, for the first time in his life, Jiang Xu ran.

All the household servants dropped their mouths in shock. Even the old master and madam who had been lounging in the living room watching a late night drama were rendered speechless.

Was this Jiang Xu, their son who ordered a special electric wheelchair so that he wouldn't have to walk? Was this really their son, who they thought couldn't walk even until he reached the age of five because he was too lazy to do so?

They couldn't believe it.

And so they didn't believe it.

Everyone who saw him dismissed it as a dream or a mirage; it was too good to be true. Maybe it was just a trick of the eye. Only the old Madam was quick enough to take a snapshot of the momentous occasion as Jiang Xu ran past, and immediately developed it into a large portrait.

She hung it on the wall were various awards, medals, and certificates of their family were tacked on.

Now, every time an honorable guest visited the Jiang family home, they would quickly be introduced to the proudest achievement of all the Jiangs, the enlarged picture of a running Jiang Xu.
