My Wife is a Goddess: 99 Secret Kisses Chapter 121 A REWARD PART 9

Xue Lin's head hurt. She frowned sensing the dull pain back in her head. She moved her fingers and slowly opened her eyes. She found herself in a dark room. There was not a single trace of light. The room was pitch black. She couldn't see or sense anything inside the house.

Darkness didn't scare her. It will never scare her. She only thought about how she ended up unconscious in a room.

--------

Half an hour ago, she was walking on the dark corridor. She casually asked Puja, "Where are we going?"

Puja answered in a light tone, "My chamber. I live here sometimes."

Xue Lin nodded and suddenly thought of something. She frowned and asked "Hey, I'm just curious. But you said something like – he wrote the message with Tingfeng's blood. How did you know that it was a 'He'?"

Xue Lin couldn't remember properly what Puja said back then. It was – He wrote the message with Lin Tingfeng's blood. He wrote, if anyone dares to go against Fa Xue Lin, they have to die.

After asking the question, Xue Lin's legs paused. She was unable to move anymore. Chills ran down her spine. She knew she made a huge mistake by asking her this question. She shouldn't have asked the question. She should have left before things would get more dangerous. She was 99.99% sure that Puja knew the killer.

Upon hearing her question, Puja stopped on her track and there was a long silence in the corridor. It made Xue Lin's throat dry. She stepped back a little. Puja slowly turned around and faced her. "Xiao Lin, you are the same as ever. Too slow."

Suddenly Xue Lin felt someone was behind her. She tried to look back – but it was too late.

Thwack!

Someone hit her from behind and she lost consciousness immediately.

----

Xue Lin wanted to slap her forehead. 'Why didn't I notice the clue before? Why am I so dumb?' She was known as 'tube light' back in the school because her brain worked slower than others. Just because Puja was her ex-cla.s.smate, it didn't mean she had to let her guard down. If she used her sixth sense earlier, she would have never come to this place.

But it wasn't the time for lament or regret. Xue Lin felt that she was laying on a soft couch. Her body didn't feel weird anywhere. Fortunately, her hands and legs weren't tied. She sat down and tried to feel where she was by moving her legs on the floor.

Just then, the door abruptly opened with a loud noise, making Xue Lin jump on her feet in surprise. The light from the outside entered the room and made everything visible. As the door was right in front of Xue Lin, the light hit her. She had to squint her eyes.

"We finally meet again, Xue Lin." A person said. It was a deep voice, certainly the voice of a young man. He sounded delighted.

Xue Lin snapped at him, "Who the h.e.l.l are you? Turn on the light. Don't you know it's rude to talk to a guest like that?" She was already mad at herself for acting like an idiot and then there was someone who hit her head which made her even angrier. Now there was a guy making fun of her misery. She wanted to chew his head off.

"Oh, my apologies!" said The guy dramatically and turned on the light and the whole room brightened up instantly.

Xue Lin adjusted her eyes and saw a guy in black clothes. He was wearing a black cape and the hood of the cape hid his face. She asked, "What are you hiding your face for? After kidnapping me, you feel shy? How heroic!"

The guy smirked. "I think you might get shocked after seeing my face."

Xue Lin frowned, "Why? Are you the ugliest guy in the world? And I don't think I will overreact. I don't think you are the person I'm looking for." When she thought that she was finally going to meet the person she was thinking of, it turned out that he wasn't the same person because their voices and demeanor were completely different and she could never forget that person's voice and behavior.

The guy suddenly became curious, "Oh, are you looking for someone?"

"That's none of your business." Xue Lin curtly said. Her brain was already working like a roller-coaster to figure out who he was. Before leaving China, she created too many enemies including her own family. That's why she was having a hard time recalling who this guy in front of her was.

The guy walked inside the room. "Sorry to disappoint you, I'm not the person you are looking for. But after seeing my face, don't regret it."

Xue Lin gave him a clear-cut answer, "The word 'regret' is not in my dictionary. But I'm ready to learn from my mistakes." She stepped back. There was a weird smell coming from his body.

The guy paused in his track and said, "You haven't changed at all. Still as heroic as ever."

"If I know you and you know me, then you should already know I don't like drama." Xue Lin's body tensed. She felt like she was going to encounter something she never wanted to encounter.

"Fine, I will fulfill your wish." The guy took off his hood. He was a guy with a handsome feature and was a man around thirty-four years old. The only thing that ruined his good look was the hideous burn mark on the left side of his face. Half of his face was completely ruined.

"!!!" Xue Lin was surprised. He was right. She was shocked to see him. Never in her life had she thought that she would see this face ever again. She couldn't help but chuckle. When she calmed down, she asked, "What are you doing here? I'm pretty sure I put you in jail. You were supposed to stay there for twenty years. It's not even five years since I saw your doom."
