Revenge
He Ying sat next to Jing Dan’s bed, keeping her company. Noticing her brows slightly furrow, she got up to fetch some hot water to gently wipe her face and neck, which seemed to relax her significantly, as her furrowed brows slowly smoothed out.
Watching her sleeping face, thinking about those disgusting acts committed by some people, and those two photos circulating online of Jing Dan being held in someone else’s arms, anger burned ceaselessly in her chest.
Her face darkened, her eyes lowered in deep thought.
“Mmm~”
A slight sound came from Jing Dan on the bed.
He Ying hurriedly looked over and saw Jing Dan’s brows furrowed, her eyelids twitched, and then slowly, she opened her eyes, looking somewhat blankly at the ceiling.
“How are you feeling? Is there any discomfort?” He Ying touched her forehead, asking with some concern.
Jing Dan’s eyes moved around, her gaze shifting from the ceiling to He Ying. Upon seeing He Ying’s face clearly, she pursed her lips, her eyes appearing somewhat moist.
Seeing Jing Dan like this, He Ying’s heart ached instantly. She sat on the bed and embraced Jing Dan in her arms, gently stroking her head and soothingly said, “It’s okay now, we’re all here.”
She had seen Jing Dan looking aggrieved before, but she had never seen her like this moment, with both a wronged appearance and moist eyes, as if she wanted to cry.
She held her even tighter, the more Jing Dan acted like this, the more her heart ached for her. When had she ever experienced something like this? She must have been very scared at the time, right?
Enveloped in He Ying’s embrace, surrounded entirely by He Ying’s scent, breathing in this comforting aroma, she suddenly felt even more wronged!
Seeing her sullenly burrowing further into her arms, He Ying took a deep breath, her disdain for those people growing even more.
“It’s okay now, your little aunt, Hu Tu, and I are all here. Do you want me to call them in?” He Ying said softly, careful not to startle her.
Jing Dan shook her head, remaining sullen without saying a word.
“Okay, then we won’t call them for now, we’ll call them later,” He Ying complied with everything she said, gently stroking her head. For a moment, she didn’t know how to comfort her.
After a while, Jing Dan’s muffled voice came: “I dreamt you were going to kiss me.”
He Ying’s body stiffened, and even the hand on her head stopped moving. Her tone was unusually probing, “Why would you suddenly dream of me wanting to kiss you?”
Jing Dan pouted, looking very aggrieved, “But I noticed that the lip shape was wrong, those lips weren’t pretty enough!”
He Ying realized what Jing Dan was talking about was probably the woman who held her last night. After getting drunk, she thought she was dreaming, thinking the woman who held her was herself, but then realized that the lip shape was wrong, not hers.
“Then what?” she asked softly.
“Then, then I woke up and saw an unfamiliar woman trying to get close to me. I pushed her away, and then I fell too!”

The head that was buried in He Ying’s embrace lifted up, and then she pulled her hand out from under the blanket, biting her lip in discomfort and said: “It hurt so much when I fell!”
He Ying saw on Jing Dan’s fair arm, there were large patches of bruising, and there was even a spot that looked like it was hit by some protruding object, already dotted with fine specks of blood.
Her face suddenly turned cold, and she carefully observed it, it looked very much like it was caused by hitting something when falling.
“Are there any other injuries?” She carefully touches Jing Dan’s wounds, afraid of hurting her again.
“My back.”
He Ying gasps in shock, wondering what on the ground caused such injuries when Jing Dan fell! And Hu Tu even mentioned her phone was broken; how chaotic was the scene last night!
Looking at the injuries on Jing Dan’s arm, it seemed someone had applied medicine, but He Ying wouldn’t feel at ease without seeing the condition of Jing Dan’s back.
“Can I take a look at your back?” She carefully asks Jing Dan.
However, this time, Jing Dan’s gaze shifted and fell on He Ying’s face, pondering something.
He Ying: “???” What is she pondering with such a thoughtful expression?
But what He Ying didn’t know was that Jing Dan was actually thinking about whether it was appropriate for her to undress in front of her now that she knew He Ying liked her. Her aunt had once said that one shouldn’t casually show their body to others. Although He Ying wasn’t just anyone, she was someone who liked her, which in human terms means she had an ulterior motive!
“Is it okay?” He Ying asked again.
“Oh.” In the end, Jing Dan agreed, because looking at He Ying’s expression, she seemed genuinely concerned about her, not like she was trying to take advantage of the situation.
If He Ying knew what she was thinking, she’d probably be at a loss whether to laugh or cry. It was just an ordinary sentence, a simple act, why would you go through so many twists and turns in your mind?
But as she lifted Jing Dan’s clothes and saw the bruises scattered across her back, her expression turned grim.
It was like a flawless piece of fine jade, suddenly thrown on the ground by someone who couldn’t appreciate or treasure it, shattered into pieces, losing its former luster.
She raised her hand, her fingertips gently touching her back, her gaze growing colder.
“Are you done looking?” Jing Dan asked.
He Ying came back to her senses, put her clothes down, and pulled them properly, whispering softly, “I saw it. Later, we’ll apply medicine diligently, so it won’t leave any marks.”
Jing Dan wrapped herself back in the blanket, looking towards He Ying and nodding.
He Ying allowed herself a smile, showing nothing else, and stood up effortlessly, saying, “Shall I call in your aunt and the others?”
Jing Dan nodded.
(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)
He Ying lowered her gaze, these eyes, really so clean and clear.
As soon as the people outside knew Jing Dan had woken up, they immediately came in, surrounding her and inquiring about her condition. Seeing Jing Dan encircled in the middle, He Ying gently smiled, then turned and left.
When Jing Dan regained her senses from the concern of her aunt and the others, she found that He Ying was already gone.
She was stunned for a moment, her gaze becoming somewhat lost.
At this moment, He Ying had already obtained the list of everyone present last night through the Spirit Management Bureau. She stood in the office of one of those individuals, watching them anxiously deal with the online public opinion.
Regarding the online matters, Jing Shiyue had taken care of them, so she didn’t need to worry about anything. However, her anger still couldn’t be extinguished, especially when she saw the injuries on Jing Dan’s body. Her fury was driving her almost to the point of losing her mind!
She wasn’t a righteous person by any means. As long as someone dared to harm the people she cared about, she would make sure they paid the price, no matter what means she had to employ!
She sneered, thinking about obtaining the information about these people from the Bureau and the evil deeds they had done in secret. She didn’t mind reenacting those evils upon them.
As she watched them finish their discussion and the others left, He Ying slowly revealed herself and smiled at that person.
The man’s eyes widened in shock, staring at the suddenly appeared He Ying with fear. His mouth hung open, but as if something was lodged in his throat, he couldn’t speak and could only make some hoarse noises. His face turned beet red.
He Ying held a pile of documents in her hand. She flipped to the page about this man and read what was recorded there, her disdain growing even deeper.
“In 2001, when your company was just starting and desperately needed funds, your brother sold his house to help you raise money. Yet, after you made it big, when your brother came to ask back for the money he lent you, you had someone break his spine. He has had to lie in bed for the rest of his life.”
“In 2004, you set up a trap that made someone owe a huge debt through high-interest loans. The debtor jumped off a building with his whole family and died.”
“In 2009, you r*ped a woman to death!”
The anger in He Ying’s eyes intensified. The hand holding the documents crumpled the paper deeply. She sneered and said, “Alright, then you shall taste the feeling of being r*ped to death!”
The man’s eyes filled with even greater fear as he helplessly watched the air in front of him suddenly condense into the forms of several men. What followed was his agonizing scream, but his voice echoed within the office, completely unaffected by the outside world.
In the end, death was not an option, but the man was driven insane. He Ying exposed everything he had done online and let human law punish him.
Everyone involved in the incident with Jing Dan suffered a terrible price at He Ying’s hands, as she exacted revenge upon them just as they had done to others.
After dealing with everyone, He Ying sat on a high terrace, allowing the cold wind to blow against her face, as if a knife cutting into her skin. She didn’t use her spiritual power to resist even a bit.
She looked down with a solemn gaze at everything that seemed as tiny as ants below, her face was all indifferent.
Even she herself couldn’t have imagined that one day she would do such a thing for another person. But at that moment, all she wanted was for those who hurt Jing Dan to pay a price a thousand, no, ten thousand times over!
He Ying slowly curved her lips into a smile. Although she had seemingly blended herself completely into the human world, at the end of the day, she was still a spirit; don’t measure her by human standards. Like what happened today, didn’t she do it all the same?
At this moment, still at Jing Dan’s house, Hu Tu received a phone call, and then her face changed instantly. She turned her head and glanced in the direction of Jing Dan’s bedroom, her eyes flickering with something.
(If you're not reading on littlepandatranslations.com, it means this has been stolen)
“I understand.” Hu Tu hung up the phone, then slowly sat down, hands clenched into fists as she tried hard to recall the moments she had spent with He Ying. The assistant had just called her, saying that everyone involved in the incident with Jing Dan had one after another encountered troubles, and the main instigator even went directly insane.
Her expression was somewhat tense. To achieve such an outcome in a short period of time was truly alarming, making Hu Tu suspect that it was hardly possible by human efforts alone. However, if the person behind this was a spirit…
It wasn’t surprising that she directed her suspicions towards He Ying. Jing Shiyue was still here, while now He Ying had disappeared. Given He Ying’s concern for Jing Dan, with Jing Dan just having woken up, she shouldn’t have abandoned her. The only possibility, Hu Tu guessed, was that she could no longer restrain herself and had taken action to avenge those people!
Suddenly, as if remembering something, she took out her phone to check the end time of He Ying’s last tour. When she saw that end time, what else was there not to understand?
When He Ying called her, she said she was already halfway there, but that time was just not long after she had finished her tour! In such a short time, how could she already be on her way!
If He Ying is a spirit, does she know Jing Dan is a spirit? Does Jing Dan know He Ying is a spirit?
Her heart felt like a tangled mess, yet she couldn’t just bluntly ask the two of them. What if they didn’t know each other’s true nature? What consequences would revealing the truth bring?
