Many of the girls had already burst into tears, hiding and sobbing quietly.
These were all young adults, peers of He Shasha’s. No matter how brave and rebellious they seemed, the death of real-life created a distinctly different terror.
On the clear surface of the pool, He Jinlan’s grotesquely contorted face floated, her eyes wide open in death. Her long hair rippled with the waves of the water, adding to the eeriness of the scene.
As Nan Fei and Huo Beijiang arrived, the first sight they laid their eyes on was this deeply disturbing spectacle. Nan Fei’s legs nearly gave way beneath her as she quickly clung onto Huo Beijiang to prevent herself from collapsing.
Even though Ning Di had confirmed the news earlier, seeing it for herself still made her tremble with shock.
She had never imagined that He Jinlan could die.
In her previous life around this time, He Jinlan was having the time of her life toying with her. Memories from her previous life surfaced, causing her to look at He Shasha standing dumbstruck by the poolside.
She remembered!
In her past life, she didn’t know but heard about He Shasha, the young lady from the He Family. Her previous life had ended during a party at her home, a party her friend Jing Tong had thrown to celebrate He Jinlan getting admitted into a prestigious university.
That night, He Shasha fell into the pool while drunk and drowned to death, her body unnoticed by the party-goers until it floated to the surface.
The scene in front of her was like an exact re-enactment. The only difference was that He Jinlan had replaced He Shasha as the victim. Her reincarnation had indeed altered the trajectory of destiny. If she had to choose between He Shasha and He Jinlan to survive, she would undoubtedly choose He Shasha.
As she stared at the body floating in the pool, Nan Fei felt a sense of relief washing over her, thankful that the victim wasn’t He Shasha.
Unable to handle her emotions, she rubbed her cheeks, which felt as cold as ice.
“Stop looking!” Huo Beijiang pulled her into his arms, “Everything will be okay!” Having been through countless life-and-death situations, the scene before him couldn’t faze him.
His only concern was Nan Fei’s fear.
“I’m okay!” Nan Fei said softly in Huo Beijiang’s arms.
She herself was a person who had died once, and her death had been much grislier than this. The fear she felt when she saw a speeding car crashing into her still haunted her till this day. The sensation of being thrown up into the air and crashing back down was ingrained deep into her bones.
How could she possibly forget the excruciating pain of shattered bones? Despite her reincarnation and the fresh start, the gruesome scenes of her past life still woke her up cold in the middle of night.
“What do you think happened to He Jinlan?” She did not believe it was an accident. Were there really so many coincidences?
