After experiencing so much suddenly, Yu Songyu knew she wouldn't be able to sleep. She decided to take action. She found a video of her father being interviewed on the television station and used editing software to piece together his words into the sentences she wanted.
In the dim light, she put on a pair of leather gloves and changed into a black outfit. In an instant, she arrived at Chen Dexing's villa. Pulling down the electric gate, she made her way to the bedroom door.
It was around one or two in the morning, and the entire villa was eerily quiet. Yu Songyu gently turned the door lock and entered the bedroom. To her surprise, she discovered that Chen Dexing and his wife were sleeping in separate rooms.
At that moment, Chen Dexing had just fallen asleep, having consumed quite a bit of alcohol to ensure he would stay that way. Yu Songyu approached the bed, picked up the pillow next to Chen Dexing, and without hesitation, pressed it against his face with all her strength, leaving no gap for air.
Chen Dexing began to struggle violently; his legs kicked out on the bed, his body twisted, and his hands clawed at the pillow. Suddenly, he grabbed hold of a pair of cold, slender wrists.
Driven by desperation, he exerted all his strength in his hands and yanked Yu Songyu's hand away from the pillow. Startled, Yu Songyu realized something was wrong. In the darkness, she vaguely saw an object on the nightstand that resembled a lamp.
With no time to think further, just as Chen Dexing was about to sit up, Yu Songyu seized the lamp and raised it high above her head before bringing it down forcefully onto Chen Dexing's head.
Originally, she had intended to set fire to the villa, but when she remembered that there were innocent people living there besides Chen Dexing's family, her conscience began to weigh on her.
"Dexing, what was that noise? You didn't—"
Chen Dexing's wife lived next door and had been startled awake by the commotion. Now she got up to investigate.
"Why did the power suddenly go out? It's pitch black; I can't see anything!"
Grumbling to herself, she turned the doorknob.
Seeing her enter the room, Yu Songyu hid in the shadows and began playing an audio clip she had prepared on her phone.
"Give me back my life! Give me back my life!"
Yu Bei's voice echoed throughout the room, sounding particularly eerie in the darkness.
A scream pierced through the silence. Wang Xiujuan cried out as she stumbled out of her room in panic.
Yu Songyu followed closely behind, and just as Wang Xiujuan was about to reach the stairway, she extended her leg and tripped her. Wang Xiujuan tumbled down the stairs like a bouncing ball, rolling along the curve until she crashed heavily onto the ground.
Yu Songyu changed her mind; she didn't want them to die so quickly. That would be too easy for them. She wanted to keep them alive, to torment them slowly.
It was getting late, and she needed to return. Before heading back, she checked on Jie Jing in her space. Seeing Jie Jing peacefully asleep, she felt reassured and left.
Back at Aunt Wang's house, Yu Songyu lay sprawled out on the heated bed in a starfish position. She was gradually growing fond of this warm bed, feeling it had more warmth and humanity compared to the cold beds of her past life.
The next day, she told Aunt Wang that she wouldn't be returning for a few days under the pretense of accompanying a friend to visit Gu Father, assuring her not to leave the door open for her.
After giving this explanation, she took Jie back to the modern world.
"Miss Yu, we have employed technical surveillance methods to track Bai Jie's phone number. However, the other party is quite cunning; we found that the phone was abandoned in an old factory and had been tampered with."
"What about Jie’s parents?"
"There were indeed traces of blood at the scene, but unfortunately, it’s very likely that they have been moved."
"Captain Wang, to be honest, I think they might be targeting me! So if I show up, wouldn’t it be easier to draw them out?"
"You mean you want to be bait?"
"Exactly!"
Yu Songyu actually wanted to say that these people's methods were very similar to those who had previously tied her up in Cambodia. However, she couldn't say that; if it inadvertently brought up the last incident, she wouldn't be able to explain how she and Jie had returned. The police were not as easily fooled as Jie was.
