I ran away from my family and my real life back in Country Z to start over, but to only return seven years later to the same problems. I tried to live my life as quietly as possible, but with my luck, I ran into my ex-boyfriend, ex-crush, and old enemies within the first few days of returning.
"What is this? How can you use me and leave me!"
"Do you not have any shame?" I sneered.
Mu Yi grasped my hands covering his mouth, giving them a light peck with his lips. "I can be more shameless, unless..."
Please let me live quietly! Wait, what did I hear on the news? The mafia group, The Kings, are making headlines for the recent killings in Country Z? Impossible, they disappeared three years ago, so why are they showing up now. They're also slowly getting the four ancient families in Country Z involved too. Will I get a clue this time around?
"You're Zhuque, the one who wears the red fox mask..." The injured man hands begin trembling, forgetting about the pain in his legs. His fear for the man was much greater than his bloody legs. "O-o-one..."
Zhuque grabbed the injured man's hair to lift his face to face him, "Ahhh~, so you have heard of me. Say it clearly, who am I?"
I wasn't sure what happened afterward as everything was a blur until I woke up. That was the first part within one night that was the worst.
"It's okay. I'll be okay," I muttered under my breath, twisting my crescent moon ring to calm my heart down. If only I can erase all my memories to forget it all, then I would. But I can't, so I'll continue to live with those memories by engraving them deep into my heart.
