38《Separating Paths》

As soon as I got home with my mother, I went to bed. Oh, how comfortable it is.

What a tiring day today. I'm sleepy, I'm going to get some rest.

"Li Shi"

Li Shi stood timidly at the door outside my room.

He looked at me regretfully.

"Did you think you could save your family by killing me?" He looked at me in shock and said, "How do you know?" she said.

I laughed.

"Do you think a demon doesn't know what's around him, Li Shi. Especially if it's me?"

I sighed and hugged the pillow.

"I knew the reason you approached me from the very beginning, but surprisingly, instead of having false feelings for me, you saw me as your real sister."

I turned my sleepy eyes to him and continued. "Do you think you would live now if it wasn't like that anyway? But you're not in my heart either. I'll forgive you and pretend that the things you did didn't happen." I said.

Then I said, "But our relationship can no longer progress as it is, let's go our separate ways." Closing my eyes and resting.

"Sister... did you really take my family captive? The possibility of saving them-"

"Li Shi, I used to know you were smart too" he paused in surprise. "Do you think I'm someone who will quit my job and take someone prisoner and interfere with them? Even if I do, I forget about those people and they die of hunger. Secondly, I deal with everyone, but I underline, I do. As long as he does not interfere with me, and as long as he is not a dishonorable scumbag. Did you see who I was messing with?"

He shook his head silently.

"Go, Li Shi. Your family isn't dead. They didn't touch me, and I didn't hurt them either." He looked at me in surprise. "Nothing would have happened if you had just opened your heart for once and told the truth instead of standing next to me like a fool and trying to deceive me"

"I'm sorry, sister," he said as he couldn't help but cry. "Don't cry" I covered my ears and frowned.

"Go and call your family, Li Shi. Our ways are now parting."

He wanted to protest by continuing to cry and saying "Sister".

"Li Shi!" stoped. "You're the one who knows me best! My limit is to be able to talk freely now without killing you! You know very well that I don't give anyone a second chance" instead of speaking lazily this time, I got angry.

I pulled the duvet over me and said, "Don't forget to pull the door when you go," hugging my pillow and closing my eyes again.

"Sister…you are so cruel," said Li Shi in a low voice, closing the door and leaving in disappointment.

On the other hand, Shura had already fallen asleep.
