Chapter 46: Set Apart for Ten Years, By The Living And The Dead! (36)

Hearing Zhang Yan’s words, Qin Su’s face waned.

He… had indeed deceived Zhang Yan.

He had a girlfriend whom he had been dating for five years. However, in order not to affect his career, the couple had chosen not to reveal their relationship to the public.

Recently, the couple had quarreled frequently because of the marriage issue, as the female’s family had been urging them to get married and settle down soon.

The profession of an actor differs from others. It required frequent traveling worldwide for work and rumor-generation or occasionally creating some gossip with other actresses to co-operate with the company’s publicity requirements.

Qin Su did not have much specific thought or requirements on this. He just wanted to find a ‘good’ girl, one who was understanding and supportive, and who could spend the rest of her life with him. He was already communicating with his company about marriage.

But his girlfriend could not be understanding and always quarreled with him, always suspecting him of womanizing outside.

Such suspicions created much pain and helplessness for Qin Su. The filming timing fit him well, and he decided to use this time to go away and cool down the atmosphere, especially since there was a poor connection in the countryside. It was also during this time that he met Zhang Yan.

Zhang Yan was very innocent and also had a passion for acting. She was also a quick learner, and the duo shared common hobbies like ancient poems.

Qin Su especially gave that collection of ancient poems to her.

Since Zhang Yan was a fan of Qin Su and naturally liked Qin Su very much, the relationship between the two went smoothly, and they quickly developed feelings for each other.

Qin Su had never revealed to Zhang Yan about his girlfriend. In fact, he was planning to break up with his girlfriend.

He even planned to return to Zhang Clan Town after his break up and bring Zhang Yan out of the town.

However, who knew that…

Looking at the girl’s innocent face filled with an expectant look, Qin Su was speechless.

Qin Su felt like he was a complete scum, one not deserving of Zhang Yan’s love.

“Little Yan, I…”

He opened his mouth, wanting to apologize, but no words could come out.

At that moment, Zhang Yan seemed to have understood the underlying meaning behind Qin Su’s silence. The innocent girl gave smiled faintly.

“Don’t worry. I won’t blame you. Don’t be guilty.”

While speaking, Zhang Yan could not help but turn her head to look at Li Yan’s spirit, which was not too far away. “I recognize you. I saw your photo in my mother’s room. Please, please don’t hurt Qin Su.”

Seeing that Zhang Yan was still pleading for Qin Su while breathing her last breaths, Li Yan’s expression took on different forms. All of a sudden, her spirit became a ball of black smoke, diving straight into Zhang Yan’s body.

The wounds on Zhang Yan’s body healed rapidly.

“Little Yan!”

Qin Su yelled out. Zhang Yan suddenly stood up and stared at him coldly. “I shall let you off today. But you don’t deserve to call her name!”

In a flash, Zhang Yan dashed out.

Seeing Zhang Yan’s departing figure, Ning Huanxin immediately chased after her unhesitantly.

In the night’s darkness, the consecutive movement of two red figures one after another was like a rush of wind.

Ning Huanxin chased for a long time until she reached the barren grave outside town, where Zhang Yan had vanished.

“Zhang Yan! Li Yan! Li Yan!”

Ning Huanxin could not help but yell, but there was no response.

She subconsciously stared at Li Yan’s grave. It was still new since Zhang Xiao newly renovated it and was also slightly bigger than the original one.

Where did Li Yan want to bring Zhang Yan’s body?

Zhang Yan… could she still survive?

A familiar fragrance wafted over and blurred her senses. Ning Huanxin lost her consciousness and went into a momentary trance before she fainted.

**

When Ning Huanxin woke up once again, she was back in Siheyuan.

“Are you alright?”

In her trance, Ning Huanxin seemed to have seen Jiang Lixing. She grabbed Jiang Lixing’s hand and asked urgently. “Little Yan, where’s Little Yan?”

“Little Yan went missing, and the film crew encountered some trouble.”
