In the darkness.

The pain from the bone erosion spread from a part of the body to every part of the body...

He opened his eyes and saw a man's handsome face half hidden in the darkness. His evil eyes seemed to swallow her whole.

For a moment the shock made her eyes widen.

Wasn't she dead?

Memories flooded into his mind like a flood. The white operating room, the bright red blood, the cold and detached doctor, and Lin Jingya's malevolent smile …

She was dead.

But why, why did she appear by this man's side, clearly experiencing her most painful memories?

This must be a dream, she comforted herself.

But the dream was too real.

The man's handsome face was right in front of him. His gloomy eyes were as sharp as knives and his body was in endless pain. Everything reminded her that this was not a dream.

Fear couldn't be controlled anymore as it gushed out of her. Almost subconsciously, she used her hand to press against the man's chest and screamed out in excitement, "Ji Chengyan, get out of my way!"

The man stopped in his tracks, but his eyes turned cold. His expressionless face was tainted with a layer of bloodthirsty cloud. He grabbed Lin Anan by the neck and uttered a single syllable in a condescending manner, "Hm?"

Tears welled in Lin An's eyes. He grabbed the man's arm and shook it furiously, trying to break free from the shackles around his neck. However, it was to no avail.

In the next second, a heart-wrenching pain came from her lips, causing her to tremble uncontrollably from the pain.

The man bit her lips and ruthlessly whined as if he was punishing her. He didn't stop until he tasted a trace of blood, then he slowly moved closer to her ear and used his near silent strength to slowly say, "You're not allowed to run. You're mine, you can only be mine."

The slow, low voice was like that of a bloodless demon.

As she listened, she slowly fell asleep …

When she opened her eyes again, the entire room was filled with the warm sunlight. The familiar furnishings caused her to be stunned.

She clearly remembered that this was the room she had lived in when she was 19.

Did he not wake up from the dream, or was this not a dream at all?

The unbearable scene from last night flashed through his mind.

She looked around. The sheets on the bed were in disarray, and the floor was littered with clothes. The most charming part was the eye-piercing red color on the bed sheets.

This scene was especially familiar.

She suddenly thought of something. She listened to her sister Lin Jingya's suggestion, got drunk in Ji City on the night of her birthday, and with Lin Jingya's help, escaped from the Ji Mansion. She ran away with Shen Changlin, who had always been her favorite.

At that time, she had always been puzzled by the matter of her whereabouts being exposed. Only later on did she realize that it was all Lin Jingya and Shen Changlin's scheme!

Could it be … Was she reborn?

However, the scene before her death was so real that she could clearly remember herself being forced by Ji Chengyan to drink the parturition medicine, then being pushed onto the operation table and changing Lin Jingya's kidney before she bled to death on the operation table.

The two memories rampaged through her mind at the same time, causing her head to hurt. She curled up on the bed, her hands covering her temples as she screamed in pain.

The door was quickly opened and a tall figure quickly rushed to the bed. He grabbed her shoulders and kept calling her name.

In a daze, she raised her eyes and saw a familiar face. Her pupils dilated for a split-second before she fainted.

It was a man who had given her endless pain and despair. Ji Chengyan.

She … He had truly been reborn, reborn into the Infernal Realm.
