Revenge Sevenfold-Chapter 171 The Same Voice

In the middle of the night, a dark figure could be seen clambering up the yacht from a small boat. His movements were quick and agile, and the lone guard that was patrolling the deck was instantly knocked out without even being aware that there was an intruder.

As if he had been in this yacht countless of times, the figure didn't hesitate but immediately made his way towards the master suite.

But just as he was about to enter, he froze.

He saw a girl sitting calmly on the bed while leaning back on the headboard, gazing at him. The man beside her was deeply asleep, and it seemed that she had been waiting for him to come for a long time. Without the slightest shift in her expression, she soundlessly got up from the bed and approached him.

"Brother, we're in the middle of the sea and you can't escape. I already told someone to destroy your boat beforehand. Why don't we chat like siblings? I haven't seen you for a long time."

"You..." He slowly raised the gun in his hand and steadily pointed it at her. "Didn't I warn you before? I told you I'll kill you if you're still beside him."

She laughed under her breath while she twirled the hairpin around her fingers.

"You think the gunshot won't wake him up? He has a gun too, you know. You've survived this long because you haven't directly confronted him, but you probably know as well as I do that this man practiced a lot in the firing range. Between you and him, who do you think will win?"

There wasn't even a trace of fear in her eyes as she calmly stared at the barrel of his gun. She was scared of car accidents, but that didn't mean she was scared of death itself. She had already died two times, and even stabbed herself in the neck. Besides, she had the cherry blossom hairpin.

So what was there to be afraid about?

She could just kill herself before he did.

Hui Yin reached out and pushed down his gun. "Brother, let's talk outside. I have a lot of things I need to ask you."

A cold light flashed briefly across his eyes before he nodded, and he turned around without another word. Hui Yin's eyes dimmed as she knew what he was thinking. She slowly closed the bedroom door.

The two of them were unaware that the man who was supposed to be 'deeply asleep' had sat up and quietly followed them.

...

Hui Jinhai walked until they were far away from the master suite before facing Hui Yin.

"Talk."

But Hui Yin simply smiled and lifted herself to sit on the railing. The night wind gently blew her hair and her nightgown, but she seemed insensitive to the biting cold and just continued staring at the horizon. Her eyes weren't looking at him, but she asked, "You lured me away to quickly kill me right? Since the master suite itself is soundproofed, he wouldn't wake up."

The hands holding the gun briefly shook. "If you knew, then why did you follow me?"

"There is something I want to know..." Hui Yin's hand clenched on the hairpin. "You told me you love me, but what kind of love could make a brother kill his younger sister so easily?"

She smiled, but it was a cold smile, with no hint of warmth. "I've already died once because of that kind of 'love'. Hui Jinhai, are you going to make me suffer through that same kind of pain again?"

Hui Jinhai didn't know what she was talking about. But his index finger steadily pulled on the trigger.

"I already warned you once. Once was enough."

In the blink of an eye, too many things happened at once.

First was that Hui Jinhai fell on the ground, and the arm that was holding his gun was bleeding. The second was that a familiar figure rushed towards Hui Yin, and in that kind of close range where even a blind person wouldn't be able to miss, Hui Jinhai simply picked up the gun with his left hand and fired.

The momentum of the bullet pushed Lu Shen and Hui Yin off the yacht and into the sea.

Just as their bodies splashed into the water, she heard him say, "Your brother...I didn't kill."

In the darkness, the blood that dyed the sea was colored black.

Hui Yin stared at the man embracing her, his chest spilling more blood into the water. She could only smile and hug him back.

This baby chick...is really an idiot.

Her neck felt a twinge of pain, and Hui Yin's blood mixed with his. Lu Shen's eyes widened, and bubbles came out of his mouth as he tried to ask her what the hell did she think she was doing. Why did she stab a hairpin into her own skin?

Hui Yin started kicking her legs as she tried to swim back up. Lu Shen helped her sluggishly, both of their bodies screaming for oxygen. Hui Yin tugged at his arms and dragged half of his weight, as he seemed to be drifting in and out of consciousness.

But when her head broke the water's surface, she was all alone.

The blazing sunlight nearly blinded her eyes, and Hui Yin raised a hand to shield her face. There was a woman crouching before her, seemingly asking her something.

"I can't believe you fell on the pool! Are you alright?"

When her eyesight cleared, Hui Yin nearly drowned again.

That...isn't that her face looking back at her?!

On closer inspection, it was actually just a face that looked seventy percent like Hui Yin's. A man's shoes stopped next to the crouching woman, and his deep voice asked her, "Why are you so concerned about a maid? You could clearly see that she's alright."

But the Hui Yin look-alike creased her forehead. "You're always so rude like this, that's why you're all alone. Can't you be a bit nicer?"

Hui Yin didn't want to look at the man. She clearly knew who that voice belonged to. But why is the voice of this woman familiar to her as well?

"Come on," the woman said, holding a hand for her to grab. "Don't mind him. You'll get a cold if you stay there any longer."

Slowly, the pieces clicked on Hui Yin's mind and she didn't accept the offered hand. She finally realized why the voice sounded so familiar.

This doppelgänger of hers had the same voice as Bao Bai.
