To Love You Again

Chapter 481 - Retribution (II)

If it was her normal self and there were people advising her, then she would have realized that her situation was bad.

But she always did what she wanted, always following her desires.

She had been depressed for a long time, but now she suddenly found happiness, and she crazily embraced it. She could forget every bad thing and only saw the beautiful life that was for her.

However, the next week, when she ordered the same food, the illusory extravagant life she was waiting for did not come back.

She was still sluggish, so she foolishly waited until slowly, her floating state began to fade, and countless cells in her body began to itch and crave for the wonderful feeling once more.

The craving and longing grew until it felt like there were countless ants biting on every inch of her skin. She curled up and screamed incoherently. Until she could no longer endure.

She staggered to the restaurant, intending to scold that the food was not the same thing she had ordered before.

On the way, she met a few men.

They were the drug dealers who had prescribed drugs on her food secretly.

"W-what are you doing?! Let me go!" She was dragged to a corner amidst her struggling.

"Cut out the act. We all know what you wanted," the leading man grinned.

They told Xiong Wuyue that what she had been receiving last week was from them, and that the free taste was up. She had to pay for it if she wanted it.

"Drugs… you just said…" Xiong Wuyue knew it by now.

She felt terribly afraid, but she could not bear the intense craving of her mind and body.

She was also afraid of what these people would do to her.

Also, she… she wanted to see her life back.

After a series of coercion and persuasion, the men gave her a small package directly.

With shaking hands, she bought the package after paying a large amount.

"Hehe, it's good to do business with you, if you ever need us, hehe…"

As if escaping, Xiong Wuyue staggered back to the cheap motel room.

Sitting on the bed, she stared at the package. She knew what she was about to take. After all, there was still a bit of fear inside her. She battled hard, clutching her head and screaming.

"No, no… no… it should be fine... I'm Xiong Wuyue… not just any loser, I can, I can… control myself later… it should be fine, right, there's nothing wrong… just one time… that's right, just this once…"

Her eyes slowly changed into a manic look as she stared at the package, whispering continuously.

Finally, after arguing to herself that she would not let herself get addicted to it like those losers out there, that she would only take a taste, she shakily opened the package.

The days passed on.

Xiong Wuyue spent her days with floating happiness and intoxicated ecstasy.

She had not noticed that she had finished the whole package, until her body began to scream with intense and unbearable craving again.

Xiong Wuyue became a drug addict.

As long as she had the money, the dealers were willing to give her what she wanted.

But every time she bought the substances, the prices would double.

Until it came to the point that Xiong Wuyue, who had no concept of money, lost everything on drugs.

Without a second thought, she sold her butler's car, the only thing she had right now.

After receiving the money, Xiong Wuyue bought another week's worth.

Almost all her money from the car she sold was gone.

She only had around ten thousand left.

Every morning, Xiong Wuyue would wake up sluggishly to the harsh reality, but when she inhaled her treasure, she would return to being the person she was before.

"Hahaha… Hihihi… Hmmm~" Xiong Wuyue was trapped in her illusions and addiction.

Until one day, she saw the date in the calendar.

Xiong Wuyue instantly woke up with a strangely clear mind.

Linfeng's birthday!

The thin woman who had changed unrecognizably in the past months seemed to come to life, staggered to her closet, and changed her clothes.

She needed to go to Linfeng and celebrate his birthday together!

But when she went out, she realized that she had sold the butler's car.

She also did not have any card she could use. She no longer had any jewelry to sell. She only had a few thousand left in her pocket.

Xiong Wuyue had no choice but return to the capital through buses.

She covered herself from head to toe.

Because her appearance and figure was very different from the star-studded Xiong Wuyue who was pampered with extravagant life, no one recognized her on the way, even when she removed the mask to eat.

Xiong Wuyue lost her way multiples times when changing buses.

In anger, she cried hard when Linfeng's birthday passed and she was still sitting inside a run-down bus.

But because she was on her way already, she just had to apologize to Linfeng for coming too late. She would just give him a gift as a compensation.

She laughed and giggled. The people sitting near her threw her strange looks and moved away, feeling that the woman seemed a little scary.

This woman was clutching her head sounding annoyed earlier, then cried while looking angry, but laughed weirdly the next moment.

The nearby passengers felt like they were sitting on pins and needles, fearing that the crazy woman would suddenly bring out a knife and start slashing on people.

By the time it was about to change buses again, Xiong Wuyue was already very irritated.

She immediately stepped off the bus and went to the public toilet first. Her body had already started convulsing since earlier. After sniffing the small packet of white powder that was left in her purse, she felt energetic and euphoric once more and giggled.

This amount would only last her for a couple more days.

When she returned to the capital, she had to look for another source.

She giggled again.

'Linfeng~'

'Wait for me, my love~'

'I'm about to come to you~'

She hummed a song on the way to the capital.
