Chapter 240

Li Ge stood there . In the cold and still air she found hard to breathe, she saw that man, wearing a trim military uniform with a coat over it . Under his hat, he was cold, proud, sharp, even inhumane .

He had a gun in his hand, still hot due to the shots that killed several men just now .

As if felt her gaze, he glanced over, and then turned away indifferently . He spoke something to the person next to him and left .

……

Li Ge didn’t leave .

The man who was supposed to leave with her couldn't make it . Then, it made no difference where she was, alone .

She stayed in Pingjing . She was still that popular singer .

She learned who that man from the other night was —— the most powerful general in Pingjing, even the most powerful in this chaotic country, General Huo, Huo Huai Ying .

What happened the other night, was just a gamble between General Huo and his enemy .

As for the man who had given her the kindness she rarely enjoyed in her life so far was just an unlucky nobody, unlucky to have stood there and got killed by a slip of hand .

Nobody cared about a dead body guard of a humble background .

But she did . She sat in her room for a whole night and day .

She cried all her tears . After that, she started to put on make-up, ready to do something big .

It was the first time she seduced a man on purpose .

Old Pa dropped by after he had the news .

At that point, she was painting her brows and applying the brightest rouge .

Old Pa was very old by then, no longer a libertine as he was when he was younger . Wearing a Tang suit, with a walking stick, he looked more at ease - more like a good man than he did in earlier years .

He must have rarely tried to persuade someone .  

“Li Ge, hear me out, that isn't someone you should get involved with . As for your man, he was ill-fated . In this world, there are people whose hair is more valuable than gold and jade, and those whose lives are cheaper than that of a dog's . Accept it . ”

Li Ge glanced at him and fixed a rose to her hair bun as she laughed bitterly: “Don't worry . I won't get you into this . ”

Old Pa left sighing .

Half a year later, the whole city learned that the most beautiful flower of Sleepless City was picked up by General Huo .

Everyone applauded that since heroes always ended up with beauties .

Old Pa heard that too . He packed up that very night, set all his girls free and left Pingjing quietly .

When Li Ge entered the General’s Manor in an impressive car, she laughed, carefree and happy .

She examined this imposing manor quietly .

Everything went as planned . She thought .

The one she loved was a human being equal with everyone else .

He died .  

The man that killed him had to pay with his own life .

——

The Sixth Lady tells the story of her life quietly .

Opposite to her, the scented tea in front of Huo Jun is still hot, with mist rising out of the cup, which blurred her eyes .

“You look like him a lot . ” The Sixth Lady suddenly says .

“So, you are not happy to have killed my father . You want me dead as well?” Huo Jun asks slowly .

Her face is blank for a moment, then she mutters: “I just wanted him dead . . . ”

Then, what changed her mind?

Perhaps, it was because when Huo Huai Ying died, she lost her reason to keep living .
