Chapter 1351: Is She in Love with You?

"Where did you see that she likes me?" Chen Yu said, unable to laugh or cry.

"Although I don't know her, and although I don't know what happened between you two, I can tell you responsibly that she does indeed like you," Liu Ruxi said.

"Because no woman would not cherish her own Life; she destroyed her entire Cultivation and went off to search for her Lotus Body, which is enough to prove everything."

Chen Yu was somewhat silent. In truth, he had vaguely felt it in his heart, but there was a layer of window paper between the two of them; as long as this paper wasn't pierced, he was unwilling to face these things.

"Alright, look at you, looking so dejected." Liu Ruxi rolled her eyes at him: "She is her, I am me; don't lump us together, even though we are considered the same person."

Besides a bitter smile, Chen Yu really didn't know what else to say. He nodded slightly and said: "Alright, I know. Let's go back now; the people at home are still waiting."

However, what Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi did not know was that there was another problem at the villa area.

He Yi was tidying up things in the house, but just at this moment, the doorbell rang.

She opened the door to look, and was surprised to discover that it was Jiang Wei, who had come here a few days ago—the friend that Liu Ruxi knew.

"Hello, He Yi. I'm here to look for Ruxi. Is she not here right now?" Jiang Wei asked.

"She isn't here right now, but I think she should be back soon. Come in first, Miss Jiang," He Yi said enthusiastically.

"Alright, thank you, He Yi." Jiang Wei smiled slightly and walked in. She took out a set of cosmetics and said: "He Yi, this is for you. I just bought it, but I can't use it all, so I brought some over to give to you."

"Oh my, Miss Jiang, thank you so much, but I can't accept this. How could I be so bold?" He Yi was both surprised and delighted; she certainly couldn't afford such expensive cosmetics.

But now that the other party was giving them to her directly, she still felt a bit embarrassed. After all, she was from the countryside and was relatively simple and honest.

"Don't be so polite. I wasn't going to use these things anyway. Also, don't call me Miss Jiang; it's quite awkward. Just call me Xiaowei," Jiang Wei laughed.

"Alright, Xiaowei." He Yi took the items and said with a smile. Then she invited Jiang Wei in, poured water for her, and served fruit.

"Thank you, He Yi," Xiaowei smiled.

"This fruit was picked by my husband from our hometown, and it was washed with Wuming Water. Try some," He Yi said.

"Alright, thank you." Xiaowei smiled and used a fork to spear a piece of fruit, putting it into her mouth. She nodded and said: "Mm, delicious."

"It's good, right? Haha, the Wuming Water from our place is collected from nighttime dew, then placed in the local temple to be imbued with incense, and then sprinkled on the fruit. Not only is it delicious, it can also ward off evil."

"This is the origin of Wuming Water?" Xiaowei's movements suddenly froze.

"That's right, what's wrong?" He Yi asked.

Xiaowei's eyes began to turn red. She stood up abruptly: "He Yi, I'm going to the restroom."

"What's wrong, Xiaowei? I see your complexion isn't right. Should I call a Yisheng for you?" He Yi also began to panic. Wuming Water—this stuff was meant to ward off evil; how could she become like this?

"I'm fine, no need to call a Yisheng. Really, I'm fine, He Yi. You don't need to worry about me." Xiaowei took a deep breath, quickly ran to the restroom, and locked the door.

She pulled out her hand, and it was clear that one of her hands had already turned blood-red. Immediately following this, black Bone Spikes slowly extended from beneath the skin of this hand.

She let out a muffled groan and collapsed onto the floor, and then black bones extended from beneath her skin, looking extremely terrifying.

"He Yi, what's wrong?" Just at this moment, Li Jie finished work and saw He Yi peering incessantly at the restroom door. She couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Li Zong, you're back. Miss Jiang came to look for Miss Liu, but after eating something, she felt unwell. Now she's in the restroom, and I don't know what the situation is." He Yi asked in a panic: "I'm wondering if I should call 120."

"Don't be anxious yet, let me ask first." Li Jie walked to the restroom door. She knocked gently and said: "Miss Jiang, how are you feeling? Where are you uncomfortable?"

"Miss Jiang?"

After knocking a few times, there was still no response from inside. Li Jie tentatively asked: "Miss Jiang, I'm coming in? Is it convenient?"

After another long while, there was still not a single response from inside. Li Jie tried pushing the door.

But just at this moment, with a *shredding* sound, five claw marks appeared on the restroom door. This restroom door was made of aluminum alloy, but in front of those enormous claws, this door was really no different from being made of paper.

With a *boom*, the door was smashed open heavily by the thing inside. Li Jie and He Yi looked in terror at the monster that had emerged before them, and both of them let out a scream at the same time...

It was late at night when Chen Yu and Liu Ruxi returned.

When they reached the entrance of the residential complex, Liu Ruxi said: "Park the car on the side of the road. I want to be quiet by myself for a while."

"Alright." Chen Yu nodded slightly, parked the car on the side of the road, and then waited quietly to one side.

Liu Ruxi did not speak; she just silently gazed at the night sky, not knowing what she was thinking about.

"If you are truly in a bad mood, then just cry it out. I can lend you my shoulder to use," Chen Yu said with a slight smile.

"At a time like this, can you stop joking with me, please?" Liu Ruxi looked at Chen Yu, then revealed an expression of being unable to laugh or cry.

"I am really not joking with you," Chen Yu said solemnly: "Really, I don't mind. I can lend you a shoulder."

"Are you guys all like this?" Liu Ruxi couldn't help but glare at Chen Yu: "You just like saying these things when a girl is weak? And then win the girl's favor?"

"Not entirely. Girls are relatively more vulnerable, so we really do want to lend you our shoulders to lean on," Chen Yu said.

"Not needed. I am not as delicate as you imagine." Liu Ruxi took a deep breath and said: "Chen Yu, I really feel now that my coming into this world is a tragedy."

"I am someone else's clone, and even my biological parents left each other when they divorced. They didn't want to raise me at all," Liu Ruxi said: "Now my biological father even wants to take me and trade me for someone else..."

"What exactly am I? Can I even still be considered a person?"

"Don't think like that. You came into this world, so there is a meaning to your existence." Chen Yu sighed slightly. Truthfully, he also didn't know how to comfort Liu Ruxi.
