[TCFO] Arc 2 — Chapter 97

Kick off the Campus’ Cinderella (57)

That day, she was tied up by Su Xiaoxiao's people in advance and taken to the hotel where they would hold the engagement banquet the next day. She was bound and gagged, then put into a partitioned room reserved for the bride. The room had a mirror, but on the other side of the mirror was a small dark room of less than 30 square metres. She could see outside but could not hear any sound from there. From the outside, it was just an ordinary dressing mirror.

That day, Liu Haoyu was dressed in a straight black suit, exuding a cool, handsome, noble, and elegant demeanour. Su Xiaoxiao was petite and cute, beautiful and charming, radiating happiness from the inside out. However, she was being violated in the mirror room, looking at the opposite room filled with flowers and smiling faces. Her body was filled with humiliation and obscene insults. She didn't remember how many people were there that day, but she cried until her tears ran dry, her voice hoarse, and her heart dead.

On that day, a mirror divided two worlds. She knew that her world would never be warm again.

In this life, Liu Haoyu and Su Xiaoxiao's engagement banquet did not disappear, but it happened earlier, and the kidnapping and gang r*pe did not occur. It seems that Zhou Min's life had changed, but her heart was still cold because she learned something that terrified her – the existence of that girl...

Whether in the past life or in this reincarnated one, things may seem like things were changing, but the essence remained the same. Liu Haoyu, you have done so much and put so much effort into that girl in two lifetimes. Is your heart really as you say it is?

Suddenly, the clicking of footsteps broke the silence. The butler rushed in with a group of armed forces, "Madam, please come with the S5 team to see the master immediately, hurry..."

Holding a dessert in her hand, Zhou Min was slightly stunned, and her sitting figure froze for a moment, "What happened?"

"There's no time to explain; this is the master's phone. Please talk to him..." A muscular man from the S5 team came out and handed a phone to Zhou Min. It had already been dialled.

Zhou Min picked up the phone, but before she could say anything, she heard Liu Haoyu's voice, clearly devoid of calmness. Xiao Min, you immediately follow the S5 escort team and come over right away..."

Zhou Min was taken aback and replied softly. As she was about to hang up the phone, Liu Haoyu suddenly said, "Xiao Min, take care of yourself. I'll be waiting for you here."

"Why don't you come in person? Where are you?" Zhou Min suddenly remembered standing in the study three days ago, looking out the window and seeing many vehicles driving away in an endless stream. At that time, she didn't think much about it, but now, she suddenly seemed to know something.

There was silence on the other end of the phone. Zhou Min tightened her grip on the metal phone, and although the phone case was slightly cold, at this moment, Zhou Min felt like she was holding a piece of ice that was cold and heavy...

"Do you love me?" Zhou Min suddenly asked. Liu Haoyu, on the other end of the phone, suddenly froze, surprised that Zhou Min would suddenly ask this. Love? He thought his actions were already so obvious. Why would she ask such a silly question? If he didn't love her, would Liu Haoyu be so afraid and cause himself to be taken advantage of by those people?

"I understand..." Zhou Min waited for a while but didn't hear a response from Liu Haoyu, so she hung up the phone.

Liu Haoyu's love was on the tip of his tongue. A heartfelt ode of love, but not spoken. Listening to the beeping sound in the phone, Liu Haoyu looked at the legs of the package, a body wrapped like a mummy, and he sighed helplessly.

He wanted to go and pick her up himself because only when he saw her could he feel at ease. However, three days ago, when the group of people led by Old Man Liu prepared to attack the estate to protect Zhou Min and the dreamy estate that she liked, he let the people in the laboratory launch an attack with all the SS-level weapons, catching those people off guard. Although they won in the end, it was a close call.

Moreover, Su Xiaoxiao, the man, and some remaining troops were nowhere to be found...

They also discovered Zhou Min's existence from that battle that was not well-prepared but very urgent. Perhaps they always knew of Zhou Min's existence but didn't know how important she was to him.

When Zhou Min followed the members of the S5 team to where Liu Haoyu was, she was shocked. People were fleeing, the once prosperous city was filled with smoke and fire, and there were cries of despair. It was like a battlefield where the country was on the brink of collapse. The corpses and debris all over the ground made Zhou Min feel horrified!

This was completely different from what she knew from her past life. Why did it turn out like this?

As dozens of S5 team members were protecting Zhou Min, rapidly moving forward in the middle, a group with heavy weapons suddenly ran out of two half-cut high-rise buildings. One of the women, dressed in black and a half-fishing net hat covering her eyes, stood darkly at the forefront.

"Jiang Min~ Jiang Min... We meet again..." The woman spoke and lifted her head, causing Zhou Min to be shocked. This person was very familiar - it was Su Xiaoxiao!

But now, she looked extremely gloomy, with blood-red lips and a ghostly white face. She was wrapped in a black dress, and her thin body made her look like a malnourished refugee. Her eyes were dark and heavy, her hair was thinning, and her veins bulged on her hands, which made Zhou Min stare in astonishment. "You... You are Su Xiaoxiao?"

"What? We haven't seen each other for just a few months, and you no longer recognise me? At least we've had a connection before. Plus, we are both women of the same man. With such a deep connection, how could you forget me?" Su Xiaoxiao said with a light laugh, but her expression was extremely twisted, seeming to contain an inexplicable resentment and jealousy.

Zhou Min frowned slightly and did not like what she was hearing. "I don't want to know about you and Liu Haoyu's affairs..."

"You don't want to know? Do you know how good Haoyu is to me? How crazy is he about me every night? Every night, he rode me like a madman for a whole month. You know..." Su Xiaoxiao spoke with increasing longing and nostalgia.

"I don't want to know!" Zhou Min looked at Su Xiaoxiao's crazy expression and secretly sighed in her heart. During the past month, except for those seven days, Liu Haoyu had always been by her side. She was very aware of his dislike and disgust towards Su Xiaoxiao. Moreover, with Liu Haoyu's cleanliness, Zhou Min was more clear-sighted than her past self. That is, Liu Haoyu would not touch Su Xiaoxiao!

Suddenly, Su Xiaoxiao looked at Zhou Min with a furious expression, gritted her teeth and screamed, "I'm pregnant! I'm carrying his child!"
