Return to before death

Chapter 16 The Last Second

She took his arm, entered the elevator, and went downstairs where the car and staff were already prepared.

Her heart was as calm and still as an ancient well, and she seemed to hear again the police officers' description of what had happened inside the police station.

At 3:20, he came downstairs and was shot dead at the car door. The scene was chaotic, and the perpetrator escaped in the chaos without leaving any clues.

And now, the second hand inside the watch is slowly moving towards death.

She and he walked step by step toward the car door.

Regardless of whether her time travel could change the future, she could only trust the police's judgment.

As the second hand moved toward 59, Yan Ran used all her strength to push him away.

boom!

Gunshots rang out, followed by gasps and screams. All she could see was darkness, and she didn't even know if she had made it back to the study.

She was still sitting at the white desk, facing a pile of messy things.

She numbly reached into her bag; the amulet was still there.

Then, everything that had been overturned on the desk gradually blurred before her eyes, becoming transparent little by little, and finally disappeared completely.

However, the amulet is still there.

However, her husband's belongings were missing.

Everything was just like last time. Houses, cars, trees, people—everything in my mind was spinning wildly. My head was throbbing with pain. The timeline was being slowly and methodically overwritten again.

The champagne in his hand fell to the ground when he announced his takeover of the other businesses of Grandview Garden and officially took control of the company.

It stood out starkly amidst a chorus of congratulations.

Even though I was mentally prepared, I didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Sheng Xuanling's thin lips were pressed tightly together, his left hand slowly clenched into a fist, his body stiff, but even so, it could not alleviate the impact of this moment.

Just now, new memories appeared in his mind.

On top of the existing memories, there is now another memory.

And right before his eyes, just now, right before his eyes, he watched Zong Zhengjing disappear, and then, the dead man appeared in front of him.

No one else found it strange, except him; in this venue, only he remembered it.

The deceased Zongzhengqing appeared out of nowhere, holding a wine cup, and congratulated him.

"Xiao Ling." In the awkward moment, Sheng Liuli gently reminded him. Sheng Xuanling, who had just come to her senses from the mental storm, quickly smiled and tried to smooth things over, but her face was still pale.

It was only at this moment that he fully believed in the power of that amulet.

but……

Can she afford it?

Do not……

not like this!

That's not what she wants!

Hearing the hysterical screams, Zong Zhengjing, who was in the room, rushed over. "Yan Ran, what's wrong?"

On the ground, vases, cups, and books were scattered everywhere.

She knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face.

The storm continued to rage, pounding against the windows. She knelt amidst the chaos, as if enduring immense pain.

"Yan Ran?"

"Yan Ran?"

"Yan Ran?"

He called her name three times, but she didn't respond at all.

He walked over and gently touched her. She looked up helplessly and asked him, "Tangtang, is it all gone?"

He pulled her into his arms. These past few days, from not eating or sleeping after Tangtang was kidnapped to hearing the news of Tangtang's death, she had locked herself in her room, feeling like she was living a life worse than death.

Her older brother retired from his company to stay with her and comfort her. Gradually, she started eating, sleeping, and cheering herself up.

They thought she had become strong, but they didn't expect that she had just suppressed her pain, which only made it heavier.

Yan Ran buried her face in his shoulder and wept softly.

She changed the past, but she did not change her fate.

Everything has changed, even the timeline has changed.

That day, she saved her husband, but three days later her daughter was kidnapped.

The kidnappers demanded that Zhengqing bring ransom to redeem their daughter.

However, despite all their efforts, when they finally found Tangtang, all they found was a cold, lifeless body.
