Revenge Sevenfold
Chapter 129 Isn’t That You?

Hui Yin's house arrest finally stopped when the filming of the TV series had ended. To celebrate their freedom after being cramped inside the apartment for so long, Ye Qiang, Bao Bai, and Hui Yin decided to go shopping.

Hui Yin had enough money now to buy herself some dresses, and the three girls had fun as they took turns showing off their chosen outfits inside the fitting room.

Ye Qiang had always been a cute girl, and Bao Bai emanated an elegant aura that made anyone who met her gaze feel small. Along with Hui Yin's striking beauty, the three girls caught quite a lot of attention wherever they went. There were even some brave men who stepped forward and asked them for their contact information, but neither of them acceded.

When a teenage girl approached them and asked for Hui Yin's autograph, Ye Qiang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Look at you being so famous! You even have a fan asking for your autograph."

Hui Yin didn't know whether to laugh or cry at her teasing. She knew that she didn't have any fans. Maybe this girl mistook her for someone else?

Just as she was about to ask, the teenager suddenly bounced on her heels and excitedly pointed at a large screen placed on the side of a building.

"Sister, isn't that you? That's you, isn't it? You look so pretty together with Brother Liu!"

Hui Yin followed the direction of her pointing finger. There was a video being played in a continuous loop on the screen, showing a lifeless girl inside a human-sized glass box. The melody was haunting, almost eerie, as Liu Jun's soulful voice began to sing the lyrics.

'You turn your back on me

But I want you to stay by my side

I look at you and I don't want to let go

Sealed heart, locked mind, baby won't you give me the key?'

The glass box opened, and a man gently embraced the girl into his arms. Scenes flashed by of the man feeding her inside an opulent kitchen, of brushing her long black hair, of talking to her about his day. And as he did this, the girl remained unresponsive, her eyes glassy.

'I'm down on my knees

Slipping underneath

By the skin of my teeth

Begging you please—'

A calendar flipped quickly as the days passed by, until it showed the man looking anguished as he stared at the girl on the other side of the glass, his fist pounding against it. He opened the box with fumbling fingers and roughly shook the girl, as if he was trying to wake her up. But her stare remained blank.

'All my temptations

I've been addicted

You're my fixation

I've held you captive'

The man continued to do his routine, dedicatedly taking the lifeless girl out of the glass box and talking to her. As he brushed her hair, he didn't notice that the girl's red headband had loosened and had fallen off to the floor. When night fell, the fingers of the girl twitched.

And the lifeless doll started to blink.

'Some people don't know what they have until it's gone

But I know what I have so I try my hardest to hold on

Baby, I love you before I sleep and right after I'm awake

I'll love you still even after you stole my soul and made my heart break—'

Pieces of glass littered the floor, and the girl started to run out of the mansion, her expression frightened and desperate. The man heard the sound of the glass box being shattered and panickedly chased after her.

'All my temptations

I've been addicted

You're my fixation

I've held you captive'

The man caught her, but the girl struggled in his arms like a trapped animal, and under the moonlight, something glinted in her hands.

A single piece of glass.

She didn't try to harm the man.

The girl tried to stab herself, so that she could be given the freedom of death. But the man quickly stopped her, and in the end, the glass shard pierced into his chest instead.

'All my temptations

I've been addicted

You're my fixation

I've held you captive

My body, my soul, my heart—

Baby, you've held me captive'

Black out.

The song finally ended.

The shopping bags in Hui Yin's hands dropped to the floor, her lips parted in shock as she stared at the huge LED screen.

It was Liu Jun's song <Captive>!

The promotional video had finally been released?
