Rebirth: Once Again With You-Chapter 524 Intruder (3)

As soon as the door was locked behind her, the man released his hold on Li Chunhua. She slumped limply to the floor like a marionette whose strings had been snapped.

"Xiaohua!" Li Caiyi exclaimed anxiously while rushing to her side. Li Chunhua looked like she was in pain. Her face was ashen, and her hand was as cold as ice.

A look of horror plastered on Li Caiyi's face as she tried to shake her awake. "Xiaohua, get a hold of yourself! Don't fall asleep!"

"It's no use. She made a valiant effort, but there was no way she could win against me. If only she allowed me to pass her room obediently, she wouldn't have to go through such an experience."

Li Caiyi glared at the man fiercely. "What did you do to her?!"

"She attacked me first. I was merely defending myself," the man shrugged as he answered mockingly. "But you guys are really similar. Identical twins, huh? Interesting."

"What's your purpose? I don't have time to talk to you, so let's make this brief."

"Impatient one, aren't you? Don't you recognize who I am?"

Li Caiyi was dumbstruck by his question. "How should I know? Have we met before?"

"We met not too long ago, but you already forgot about me. I'm very disappointed in myself for leaving such a little impression on you."

The intruder said playfully as he walked briskly to her. Li Caiyi automatically hugged her sister to protect her, but he yanked her away effortlessly before throwing her to the bed.

Before she could recover from her shock, the man had pinned her to the bed. Li Caiyi was so surprised she couldn't scream.

The room was dark, with only moonlight from the opened window as the light source.

Bathed under silver light, Li Caiyi could see a beautiful pair of blue eyes peeking from his mask. It looked down on her with a delightful glint, like he was thoroughly enjoying her flustered reaction.

"You are that white-masked person…." Li Caiyi's unconsciously blurted those words out of her mouth.

"I know you will remember me once we get into the right position. Do you like it that much?"

His words pulled her out of her daze, so she began to struggle vehemently by thrashing around. The intruder covered her mouth with his hand to prevent her from screaming. "Ssshh, be quiet. You don't want your brother to hear it and come in, right? If you do that, I have no choice but to immobilize him. It will be as easy as breaking a toothpick."

Li Caiyi couldn't believe she didn't recognize him at all. Perhaps she secretly wanted to forget the unpleasant memories from back then. Still, the man acted very differently than the last time they met. He was almost like a different person altogether.

After losing so much energy from struggling, Li Caiyi slowly came to terms with the fact that she wouldn't be able to break free unless he let her. So she gradually ceased her fight and pointed at his hand instead, gesturing to him to let her talk.

"You promised you won't scream out loud if I let you go?" f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚

Li Caiyi nodded, and he retracted his hand. The stuffy feeling immediately went away. "Can you get off of me first? It's hard to talk like this."

"No can do. Cope with it."

She took a deep breath, trying to dissuade herself from punching this person as it would be easily dodged by him anyway. At any rate, she had to identify his true purpose first.

"Did you come here because you have a business with me?"

"Hmm, that's a part of it too. We haven't got a chance to finish our previous conversation, and I missed you."

Li Caiyi didn't bother to hide her disgust as she replied, "You almost killed me back then."

"Ah, that? Sorry, you are so cute that I can't help wanting to crush you so badly. If you don't want to die, then I advise you not to cry in front of me," He chirped in joy, as though he was talking about the best memory he ever had. Li Caiyi shuddered.

"What's so important you want to talk with me about, for you to even track me down to my house?"

"Don't sell yourself short. Believe it or not, you are a pretty important existence to me."

"What are you talking about? This is the second time I've ever met you."

"That's right," The intruder caressed the side of her face with the back of his gloved hand, making her body stiffen. "But you are that person's most precious person. It makes you pretty important to me too."

Li Caiyi vaguely remembered he said similar things when they met for the first time. From this, she was sure that this person wasn't personally interested in her, but someone close to her. But who was that person?

"How so?"

"That person could be the biggest hindrance to my future plan, so if I break you, I thought I could make him suffer. Last time was just a greeting, this time, I'm serious."

Li Caiyi had a bad feeling when his hand slowly trailed down to her neck. "S-Stop this."

"Are you afraid? How cute. I'm holding back so much, so if you cry, I don't know what I'll do to you."

Li Caiyi swallowed a mouthful of saliva before asking him again, "That person you want to break, was it Dai Zhiqiang?"

His hand stopped moving. The amused glint in his eyes faded and was replaced by unfathomable darkness as he coldly answered, "He is an eyesore. I have to get rid of him."

Her guess was correct, after all. After finding out about Dai Zhiqiang's real job, it wasn't difficult for her to put the two together.

Working under an information trading agency that handled classified information meant that Dai Zhiqiang would encounter various people bearing a grudge for having their data leaked. And this person was probably one of them too.

"Who are you? And why do you hate Dai Zhiqiang so much?"

The blue-eyed man didn't answer immediately. "You don't have to know that. And that's not the only reason I put my eyes on you."

"What do you mean?"

"I warned you before. Don't poke your nose into something you don't belong to. You can lose your life before I get my hands on it first."

A cold sensation pressed onto her neck. Li Caiyi broke out in a cold sweat when he realized he had just pushed a small knife onto her neck. "Are you going to kill me?"

"You are pretty interesting; I'd like to play with you some more. So if you can answer my last question, I will let you go again."

Li Caiyi couldn't focus well when she knew she could lose her life with one wrong answer. However, faced with a psycho like this, any attempt at rejection or negotiation would result in her instant death. She had no choice but to be patient. Only a little more, and the police should be here anytime soon.

"What is your question?"

His mesmerizing blue eyes sparkled in delight again. He was like a kid who enjoyed playing with his toy. "When was the first time we met?"
