Chapter 85

Shi Yi was wearing a navy blue dress with a black wool cardigan over it. Her face was hidden behind sunglasses and a mask, and her long hair was all coiled up and fixed with an ebony hairpin, revealing her smooth neck.

She walked step by step to the front of Teacher Wang's spirit, then raised her hand to take off her mask and sunglasses, and bowed deeply.

A crystal-clear tear fell silently onto the white carpet.

Immediately after, Shi Yi quickly put on her mask and turned to leave.

However, in just this one second, her face was still seen by someone with a heart.

She saw that the girl's face was exquisite and handsome, her amber eyes were like yellow gemstones, crystal clear yet revealing a faint detachment, her skin was pale, carrying a trace of sickly fragility, and the corners of her eyes were stained with a touch of crimson—the whole person was like a white rose stained with blood.

If she wasn't Shi Yi, who else could she be?!

"Xiao Yi!"

Shi Heng shouted with a trembling voice. At this moment, he couldn't care about etiquette or influence. Three years ago, he watched his own sister being live-streamed and tortured to death, not even leaving a corpse for him.

This time, no matter what, he couldn't let Xiao Yi disappear from his sight again!

Shi Heng shouted while running forward through the crowd.

Not far away, hearing the shouts of "Xiao Yi," Su Yichen's heart trembled, and he instinctively turned his head toward the mourning hall.

Sure enough, he saw a thin and frail female figure turning to leave.

The woman had her back to him, and he couldn't see her face, but Su Yichen heard his heart pounding—a familiar yet painful feeling rose faintly in his heart, as if he had known the woman for many years...

Could it be... was she really Xiao Yi?!

"Please wait a moment!"

Su Yichen wiped the tears still remaining at the corners of his eyes with a tissue and chased quickly toward that figure.

At this moment, Shi Yi had already cursed this damn heaven ten thousand times in her heart!

It really loved to go against her!

Whatever she feared came; how could these men be like dog-skin plasters, unable to be shaken off no matter what?

"Shi Yi" had long been dead; she was Shen Xingyao now, and she absolutely didn't want to have any relationship with Shi Heng or Su Yichen!

She only hated that she didn't have wind-fire wheels under her feet, unable to "whoosh" and leave here immediately.

Fortunately, at this time, the broadcast sound finally came from the cathedral:

"Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules today to attend the funeral of my mother, Ms. Wang Xiaomei. The funeral ends here; please exit in an orderly manner, thank you all again..."

Whoosh—

The crowd began to retreat like a tide. Shi Yi quickly lowered her head, wearing her mask and sunglasses, hiding herself in the crowd.

"Make way!"

The woman who was just in sight disappeared in the blink of an eye. Shi Heng panicked immediately, not caring about his image, and pushed through the crowd with his big hands, squeezing forward.

"Who is this, how can he be so impolite! Doesn't he know this is a funeral?"

"Exactly, this is a cathedral! Why are you squeezing?"

"Hey... I see that person, why does he look so much like the eldest young master of the Shi family, Shi Heng?"

"You don't say, he really looks a bit like him..."

In another direction, Su Yichen also anxiously pushed through the crowd all the way, squeezing hard toward the exit.

"Who is this again?! Stop squeezing!"

"How can this person have no quality!"

"I'm talking to you, stop squeezing, didn't you hear?!"

Sounds of dissatisfaction and reprimand came from the crowd, causing a not-so-small commotion. Shi Yi took advantage of this commotion and quickly slipped out from the side door.

It was already late outside, and neon lights lit up in the distance.

Shi Yi clutched her chest and took a deep breath of fresh air—

"Phew—finally out!"

As soon as Shi Yi came out of the cathedral, she left the crowd and walked out along a small path with no one around.

She didn't tell Qin Haobei when she went out today; she came by taxi.

It was almost dinner time now, and she had to go back quickly so as not to let Father and Mother Qin worry.

Shi Yi walked through a small forest behind the cathedral, walking hurriedly toward the road. She was focused on leaving as soon as possible, so she didn't notice at all that there was a black shadow following her all the way behind her...

It was Shi Xi.

At this moment, Shi Xi's dark brown prosthetic eye emitted a fierce, faint light in the dark night, like a poisonous snake seeing its prey...

From that fleeting glance just now, she could almost be certain that the woman was her own sister, Shi Yi, who had "died" for three years!

Damn it, she actually didn't die!

This little bitch used a fake death to deceive everyone and even stole her brother's love!

For three years, her brother had never looked at her directly again; his heart could no longer hold anyone else, only this dead sister, Shi Yi!

She finally managed to attend a graduation ceremony with him, but her brother only looked at her back once, then ignored her and ran out alone! If she really let this little bitch continue to live in this world, then sooner or later, everything she had would be taken away by her!

Monstrous hatred rose in Shi Xi's heart, like a raging fire.

This time, no matter if the woman in front was Shi Yi or not, she couldn't let her stay in this world! She wanted to personally nip this possibility in the bud.

On the other side, Shi Heng came out of the cathedral, and the woman's figure disappeared all of a sudden!

The crowd was leaving slowly all around, but Shi Heng felt like an ant on a hot pot, suffering, damn it, where did she go?!

Where could she go?!

Just then, a small path appeared on his left, leading to the back door of the cathedral, which almost no one walked on.

Shi Heng forced himself to calm down, thinking, if that woman was really Xiao Yi, she would very likely want to avoid the crowd and leave as soon as possible, so... she had a high probability of taking this small path!

Shi Heng gritted his teeth; now, he could only gamble! So he ran into that small path without looking back.

And behind Shi Heng, Su Yichen also followed closely. Although he didn't see the woman's face, anyone who could make Shi Heng so anxious must not be an ordinary person!

Very likely... Xiao Yi hadn't died yet!

Shi Heng and Su Yichen ran one after another through a dense small forest, passed through the moon gate behind the cathedral, and finally arrived at a busy road.

Just then, the woman's figure really appeared on the roadside not far away!

Shi Heng's eyes lit up, and he was just about to shout the name "Xiao Yi," but the next second, he saw a black shadow appear behind the woman, he didn't know when.

A pair of evil hands quietly reached toward the woman's back.
