In the entire Class 13, Xi San believed he was the most popular. He was a basketball player. He was tall and handsome. He was stylish and caring. Who wouldn’t like a young man like that?@@@@

Nevertheless, Xi San had a secret in his heart. When he was in high school, many students confessed to him. However, he was never moved. His heart was with a woman twelve years older than him. She lived above his apartment home. It was this big sister who introduced him to a brand-new world. Holding the purple bra in his palm, Xi San’s memory was rapidly fading until that sole figure remained in his mind.

He leaned his face forward. When his nose was about to touch the bra, there was a knock on the door. Xi San stood up in a panic. He shoved the bra into his pocket and ran to the door with a bit of anger.

“Is Gao Ming at your place? We’re his parents.”

“Gao Ming’s parents?”

The name mentioned appeared to carry some magical powers. After some hesitation, Xi San opened the door, “Hi. Aunty, Uncle. Gao Ming is my roommate. Did something happen to him?”

“Gao Ming hasn’t come home. We can’t reach his number either. We’re worried about him, so we came to see if he’s with you or not.” The middle-aged couple holding a birthday cake was very polite. As if worried that Xi San might misunderstand, they maintained a safe distance from Xi San.

“Since you’re my good brother’s parents, then, you’re my parents too. It’s very dangerous in the building now. Why don’t you come in?” Xi San offered.

The couple was surprised to have met such a kind tenant. They waved their hands. “We still need to find Gao Ming.”

“Why don’t I come with you?” Xi San had forgotten many things, but certain instincts were branded into his soul, like sticking close to Wang Jie and Gao Ming were his only path to survival. He had no idea why those instincts were present, but he was too lazy to ponder them. “If I stay, I’ll just be trapped and eventually die from hunger and thirst. In that case, why don’t I help Aunty and Uncle look for Gao Ming? Aunty and Uncle don’t look like bad people.”

Xi San stuck so close to the couple that it made the latter feel quite uncomfortable.

“Susu?” Doctor Lee walked to the bedroom door with uncertainty. Next to the high-end double bed was a bassinet. Ou Yang Susu parted her ponytail. She smiled as she reached her hand into the bassinet. She seemed to be playing with the baby. Doctor Lee slowly moved forward. He sucked in a cold breath. There was really a baby inside the bassinet.

“Honey, look at our kid. How much he looks like you.” Ou Yang Susu’s voice was so motherly that Doctor Lee was scared. “Thank you for giving me such a wonderful and perfect family.”

“Susu, this is not our home! That is not your child!” Doctor Lee said anxiously. He felt pinpricks of fear the longer he stayed in that place. This was definitely not his home. However, as Ou Yang Susu said those words of kindness, he started to feel his surroundings becoming familiar. With their financial ability, they couldn’t afford this place even if they tried their best.

Thin, black lines grew out of Ou Yang Susu’s pupils. She picked up the baby, her face glowing with love.

“These are all fake! Susu, you are in the illusion created by the God of the Future! Wake up!” Doctor Lee wanted Ou Yang Susu to put down the baby and leave with him. However, when the baby sensed danger, Ou Yang Susu transformed into a different person. Even her presence became frighteningly alarming.

Doctor Lee was helpless. He suddenly missed his direct, manly and kind wife.

“No. I have to bring you away from here!” Doctor Lee came to a decision. He came to the living room to find a suitable weapon. However, there was a knock on the door. An unfamiliar voice came through.

“Hello. Have you seen a high-school student in his school uniform? Our son hasn’t come home until now. We’re worried.”

The knocking never ceased. It was like the people outside knew there was someone inside.

With a trace of confusion, Doctor Lee slowly opened the living room door.
