Chapter 1188: Present
The replicated Chen Ying came from her Fate Slide a year ago. She aimed at herself and shouted a warning, “Don’t come any closer! I’ll shoot!”
Chen Ying walked up to her replica without fear. She had had nightmares like this before. She dreamed of her dark side aiming to kill herself. She had felt helpless and desperate in those dreams.
Who would’ve thought that dreams would become reality, only she played the dark self rather than the victim?
Bang! The replica pulled the trigger. The bullet hit the ground at Chen Ying’s feet. “Don’t come any closer! Or the next shot will hit your body!”
Chen Ying stopped, her lips curled into a smile of sorrow and resignation. “Body? Not the head or the heart even when posturing...”
The replica started.
Chen Ying met her gaze. “You can’t kill people. You’ve never killed and never want to kill.”
“What’s so wrong with that?” asked the replica.
“Nothing. You’re right. Humans shouldn’t kill humans. We should unite together and protect each other...” Chen Ying smiled. “Ah, you swore to give Little Tian a happy childhood free of hunger, bullying, loneliness, and fear. You didn’t want him to grow up the way you did...”
“Who are you?!” the replica demanded. “What are you trying to do?!”
“How about your Little Tian? Where is he?”
