Chapter 187 - Chapter 187 8.3

Of course, most importantly, she wanted to get the male lead's attention.

We need to at least dilute the memories of her past life a bit before we can make her more willing to accept our advances.

Although I trust my dear husband very much, there is still a barrier between us because of what happened in our past lives.

After putting away what he needed, Xunmi nodded to the two of them again and went up to the fifth floor.

The fifth floor is a general store; it has all sorts of things. After searching and picking, I selected some useful items.

As the red dots on the map keep getting closer and seem to be increasing, I feel helpless.

She had avoided that disgusting thing all along the way, thinking she wouldn't see it for a while.

But now it seems there's no way to escape it. She feels that her obsessive-compulsive disorder can definitely be cured in this world.

Leaning against the window, he stroked the long sword he had just redeemed from the system shop.

She was speechless at the mall's prices; a loaf of bread was ridiculously expensive, while a knife only cost fifty points. What a difference!

"Aren't you two going to leave yet?" Xunmi walked downstairs and saw that the male protagonist and his first little follower were still on the fourth floor.

She was immediately puzzled; she couldn't believe that the male protagonist, with his strength, wouldn't be able to sense that he was being surrounded by a horde of zombies.

Whenever Ye Mingye saw this person again, he couldn't help but want to get closer.

But at the crucial moment, he remembered his past life.

I constantly belittle myself and constantly demand more of myself, but the results are not very good.

"Brother Ming, we..." Ling Chen looked outside, then at the woman standing at the door, and asked.

He survived entirely thanks to Ming-ge's help; if he hadn't met him, he probably would have been drained dry by his own vampires long ago.

"Let's go." Ye Mingye said coldly, his eyes no longer on Xunmi.

He walked straight ahead, his hurried pace making it seem as if he were avoiding something.

The only person who knew the truth was secretly overjoyed.

Sure enough, no matter what her husband went through, he still couldn't bring himself to be ruthless when he was with her.

But at the same time, she felt sorry for her husband. If she could do it all over again in her past life, she would definitely control the original owner of the body better.

Sigh, the hardest thing to find in this world is a medicine for regret.

Xunmi followed behind the two, keeping a long distance between them.

As soon as they stepped out the door, the surrounding zombies were already in their sight.

Looking at that filthy body, its exposed skin had turned into rotting flesh and was emitting a foul stench.

Finding a solution is one thing; seeing it on TV is another.

Damn it, I feel like throwing up, fuck.

Will she go blind before she even gets rid of her OCD?

"Do you need a ride?" Xunmi didn't hesitate and took out her sports car from her spatial storage.

He got into the driver's seat and politely asked the two people not far away.

When you have the opportunity to build rapport, never be pretentious.

After weighing the options, Ye Mingye finally chose the car he was looking for.

He still hasn't figured out why someone who only had water-based abilities in their past life has extra spatial abilities in this life.

Could it be that his rebirth changed some things?

Can he then conclude that this Ming Xunmi is not the Ming Xunmi who hurt him in his previous life?

I shook my head, trying to get rid of those unrealistic ideas.

He gave a cold laugh. Even if it wasn't true, the same face just wouldn't let him go.

"By the way, let me introduce myself. I am Ming Xunmi."

"We're heading to the base in City B. May I ask who you two are?"

While driving, Xunmi used his water-based abilities to create a water wall around the car.

This way, the zombies rushing towards her wouldn't be able to touch her car, and they wouldn't leave behind anything she would be reluctant to leave behind.

"My name is Ling Chen, and this is Brother Ming. We are also heading to the base in City B."

After a pause, Ling Chen continued, "I wonder what relationship Miss Ming has with the Ming family in City B?"

Xunmi waved her hand dismissively and replied, "We just share the same blood."

In the life where the male protagonist is reborn to seek revenge, the original owner's fate was partly due to the Ming family.

When the original owner arrived at the B City base, the Ming family had already become one of the three major powers.

Protecting the original owner would have been an easy task, but in the end they chose to let those people take the original owner away and kill him.

All she wanted was to win over the male lead, but she never expected that the woman beside him was the illegitimate daughter whom the Ming family disliked.

That's why things fell apart later, and why the male protagonist drove the Ming family out of the base after seizing power.

It's funny to think about it; he ruined one daughter, only to be ruined by another.

This can be considered retribution; indeed, heaven is watching what people do.

Ye Mingye had been watching Xunmi's expression closely, noticing the sarcasm in her eyes and the bitter smile on her lips when she mentioned the Ming family.

My heart skipped a beat; this shouldn't be happening.

In their previous life, the Ming family cherished this daughter dearly, treating her like a precious gem.

If it weren't for the eldest son of the Ming family, he wouldn't have been pushed into the zombie horde by Ming Xunmi.

"Could there be some hidden story he doesn't know?" he asked tentatively.

"Ming Xunmi, the most beloved little princess of the Ming family, but your tone seems different from the rumors."

Xunmi tightened his grip on the steering wheel for a moment, the veins bulging out, but he relaxed and the tension disappeared instantly.

However, Ye Mingye, who was overly attentive in his search, still saw it, which only deepened his suspicions.

At that moment, he had no recollection that this person was the one who had killed him in his past life.

He should have just killed her, just in case.

Especially now, he himself doesn't understand why he has such different feelings for her.

But he just couldn't bring himself to do it; his subconscious told him that she would never hurt him.

But the events of the past life are real and cannot be ignored. The only explanation is that there must have been unavoidable reasons.

After a long silence, Xunmi finally spoke slowly, his tone somewhat detached.

"They're just pawns, how can they not treat me well? After all, I need to sell them for a good price when I need them."

This is true, it's just that the original owner didn't know it.

The original owner thought that her parents and older brother truly loved her, but little did she know that being born into such a family, no matter how good it was, she could not escape an arranged marriage in the end.

Or even worse, in order to climb the social ladder, they are given away as gifts.

That illegitimate daughter was kicked out of the family and never acknowledged because she didn't meet the Ming family head's expectations.

Ye Mingye clenched his fists tightly, staring straight ahead, not letting anyone see the emotions in his eyes.

The pain in his heart was so intense that he couldn't ignore it.

Whenever he heard about this person's situation, he felt endless self-blame and regret.

"The Ming family holds a high position, how could they possibly..."

Ling Chen voiced his doubts, noting that the Ming family in City B was quite famous.

He is well-connected in both the business and political circles.
