Civilization: Beyond Two Worlds

241 Nothing Happened Tonight

In the dead of night.

It was already two in the morning.

Most of them had already fallen asleep.

Those who did not live at night were cultivating. Those who had fun at night were ecstatic. Those who did not live at home were working overtime. The workers were helping the boss earn sports cars and mansions. These people were staying up late, but the things they did were worlds apart. On the other hand, the strange thing was that society had developed to a certain stage.

As a rich second-generation heir among rich second-generation heirs, Young Master Xie Guangjun was indeed high.

In the brightly lit nightclub, it was the hottest time. The people coming and going danced wildly, touching and hugging. Men and women vented their desires. Young Master Xie sat at his usual fixed booth, drinking one glass after another. Beside him were his friends, chatting and drinking.

From time to time, people he knew would come to toast. Xie Guangjun did not reject anyone.

He was delighted and looking forward to it.

He was waiting.

He was waiting for a result and good news.

This was because he could not wait to see Kang De kneeling in front of him, begging him in tears. He would hold the real estate certificate in both hands and beg him to buy the house. He could even give it away for free. Xie Guangjun would wait here. A noisy nightclub, an excellent stage. He would taunt the other party here. He would humiliate him here.

He had already thought of more than ten ways.

He had to pay back Kang De’s humiliation, his cheap mouth, and his impudence.

Moreover, it was doubled.

He did not plan to do anything to the other party. After all, he still had to give Wang Xiaoman some face. However, that fool was relying on her and did not want face. He definitely had to vent his anger.

‘I want him to be afraid when he hears my name for the rest of his life.’

The woman beside him nudged him with her elbow. She had a sequin, a silver short skirt, and knee-length boots. She had sharp makeup on, and under the dim light, she looked very imposing and filled with a different kind of charm. She smiled in a slightly hoarse voice and said, “You’re a little distracted tonight.”

Xie Guangjun was already a little drunk. When he heard this, he revealed a proud smile. The brainless women who threw themselves at him without a bottom line were all very lowly. He had seen many of them and did not like them. Apart from beautiful bodies, he also liked interesting souls now. It was even more satisfying to conquer them.

Out of his male desire to show off to his female, he narrowed his drunk eyes and smiled, “Xiao An, you came at the right time today. I’ll treat you to a good show. It’s rare.”

The woman casually said, “What show?”

Xie Guangjun looked at his watch, then pointed at the empty space at the entrance of the booth. “Tonight, someone has to kneel here and beg for my forgiveness, like a dog.”

There was a faint smile on the woman’s lips, and her body swayed slightly with the tune that pierced the entire venue as if she was enjoying this atmosphere. However, after hearing Xie Guangjun’s words, her face immediately turned cold.

Her eyebrows rose sharply. “Are you alright?”

“You can’t blame me for this. You can only blame that kid. His mouth is too cheap and he doesn’t know how to be human. He’s worthy of kneeling on the ground and begging for my forgiveness.”

Xie Guangjun was slightly drunk. He shook the wine in his glass, “I forgot to tell you. I think he’s a gigolo raised by Wang Xiaoman or a childhood friend? I’ll let you, her rival, see what kind of guy she chose today.”

Before he could finish speaking, the woman’s expression changed when she heard this, “It’s that Kang De?”

Xie Guangjun was first stunned, then he smiled faintly, “Oh, you know him?”

The woman called Xiao An placed the wine glass in her hand heavily on the table. “It’s not good for your personal grudge against Wang Xiaoman to be related to outsiders, right?”

Xie Guangjun’s drunkenness fueled his temper, “It’s really not an old grudge this time. I’ve even saved the recording of the call. Even if Wang Xiaoman’s father comes to ask for an explanation, I have a reason!”

At this point, he glanced at the woman from the corner of his eye, “I didn’t expect you to be so righteous usually. If you have the ability, tell Wang Xiaoman and let her do it. See if she can accept your kindness and see how today ends.”

The woman was furious and wanted to leave with a flick of her sleeve, but when she thought of Xie Guangjun’s previous words, she hesitated. She and Wang Xiaoman did not like each other very much and had only met Kang De twice. They were only acquaintances and did not have any relationship at all, but this did not mean that she could leave this matter behind with a clear conscience… In her opinion, this kind of thing was indeed very disgusting. Kneeling was really too much.

However, if she told Wang Xiaoman and let that woman rush over in a hurry, causing a conflict and even suffering a loss, it would be very difficult to resolve the matter. With her position, she might even be hated and think she had deliberately lured Wang Xiaoman to cause trouble to watch the show… After all, her relationship with the other party was very bad.

Forget it, she would stay and take a look.

If things went too far, she could interfere.

Xiao An stared coldly at Xie Guangjun, her expression changing as if she was weighing the pros and cons. A moment later, she said through gritted teeth, “If you’re so ostentatious, something will happen sooner or later and you’ll even get your father into trouble.”

Xie Guangjun laughed wildly and did not answer.

The woman frowned in disgust and distanced herself from Xie Guangjun. Xie Guangjun did not mind. He drank wine and played with his phone. He stood up and swayed with the melody on the stage, winning the praise and support of the surrounding lackeys and friends.

They lived a luxurious life day and night, filled with a depraved and dirty atmosphere. Xiao An had always liked the feeling of clubbing, but for some reason, she suddenly felt waves of disgust today.

This was because this place did not only vent the pressure and desire accumulated by humans.

There was also darkness and evil.

Suddenly, she frowned and looked around in surprise. She felt a gust of wind. Perhaps it was an illusion. In short, she had a strange feeling. She could not describe it, as if someone had come.

However, there was no one around. This was one of the largest and best booths. It had been designed to be quiet, spacious, and high-end. Even the alcohol stock that filled the entire venue would not disturb them.

A moment later, Xie Guangjun slowly stood up and said, “I’m going to the toilet.”

Looking at the other party get up and leave, Xiao An suddenly cursed, “F*ck!”

Forget it.

She picked up her phone, dragged out Wang Xiaoman’s number from the blacklist, and sent a message.

A moment later, she saw a short reply.

“Thank you.”

She frowned. According to Wang Xiaoman’s personality, she would definitely not sit back and watch her childhood friend be humiliated. However, this was considered Xie Guangjun’s territory. If she caused trouble, she would probably suffer.

Xiao An was about to remind her when two short rings suddenly sounded in her ears.

It seemed to be behind her.

She suddenly turned around. The area behind her was empty, but she did hear her phone ring. It rang twice as if it had been hung up as soon as she heard it, and it immediately disappeared.

However… there was no one.

She suddenly turned around and asked Xie Guangjun’s friends, “Whose phone is ringing?”

These people were still very afraid of her. When they heard this, they took out their phones to look. “No one…”

She looked puzzled. “Did I hear wrongly?”

Even the toilet of the VIP customers in the booth had a special VIP toilet. There were few people and there was no need to queue. It was quiet, the air was good, and it was soundproof. It was convenient to do anything.

The toilet was empty and brightly lit. Xie Guangjun finished peeing comfortably and cleaned his hands in front of the sink. He hummed a small tune as a smug and ruthless expression appeared on his face. Things were going very smoothly. That was what the middleman reported. Soon, he would see the person he wanted to see.

That talkative kid.

There was also that house.

When he thought of this, his face revealed a ferocious expression.

“B*tch!”

He cursed fiercely in a low voice, “You’ve been dead for so long and still caused me trouble!”

If not for the house that had suddenly been haunted recently, he would not have thought of that greatest worry and secret, nor would he have wanted to buy that house back and deal with it again. Although he had already completely dealt with it inside and out previously, who asked this to be haunted again?

However, there was soon no problem. Even if that kid surnamed Kang really knew something, he should know to shut up after being taught a lesson, right? At that time, he would not do anything to him. Instead, if he was given a little benefit, he would immediately be grateful and thank him for showing mercy.

Humans were so cheap and could be tamed.

He smiled proudly.

However, he suddenly felt that the air was a little cold.

This was because he thought of that woman and the rumors of ghosts after the new year.

“D*mn, even if there’s a ghost, I have plenty of money. I could kill you back then, but now that you’ve become a ghost, I have a way to kill you! If there’s really a ghost, it means that the abilities of those monks and Daoists are real! I can spend money to hire them to suppress and exorcise you. I have plenty of money!”

He rambled and whispered.

He looked at the huge mirror in front of him.

Xie Guangjun did not realize that he was even more excited than usual tonight. He was even more excited and nervous. He only felt a little cold, and then…

Then…

The light in the toilet was instantly extinguished. The bright and wide bathroom was dark. He was shocked, then roared, “Waiter! Waiter! What’s going on?! Get over here!”

There was no response.

D*mn.

Xie Guangjun cursed and hurriedly took out his phone. He lit the screen and turned on the flashlight function. The light chased away a small area of darkness. He raised his phone and prepared to leave.

He turned around.

The light of the phone illuminated behind him.

It was close.

It could even be said to be face-to-face.

A pale face appeared in front of him.

He widened his eyes.

Blood vessels were everywhere. Apart from that, there was no fluctuation, only dead silence.

Her hair was loose, her face was pale, and her lips were purple.

This face.

It was her.

It was the way she looked before she was strangled to death.

She stood in front of him unharmed.

“Ahhhhhhhhhh!”

If it was anyone else who turned around in the blackout environment and saw the pale ghost face approaching, they would be so frightened that they would instantly turn soft. Moreover, this face was Xie Guangjun’s greatest nightmare and darkest memory for a period of time.

No, that was impossible.

How could it be unharmed?

She was killed, boiled, cut off, washed away, sold, ground, fed to the chickens, and cleaned up. It had been many years! No one knew!

Xie Guangjun screamed loudly and fell to the ground. He struggled to get up, but he discovered that the clean and smooth ground had instantly become sticky. The light of his phone shone, and he could barely see the dark red liquid in his hand almost solidifying. Then, he felt an itch on his neck, as if something was falling. He looked up and saw clumps of black hair falling like vines. This was something he had once been infatuated with and praised. At this moment, it wrapped around him.

He screamed and rolled on the ground, struggling.

Shattered and squirming things surged out of the tap. It was the substance that had rushed into the sewer with the beef and mutton filling after he dealt with it and spread to him.

He tried his best to crawl and hide.

Then, the sticky ground shook. Eyeballs opened one after another. There was pain and hatred in their eyes that endless blood could not wash away. Many eyeballs were dense and stared at him. Just like the two heads, pieces of flesh and blood ran toward him from all directions. They were neat and tidy. The air sang. There were women crying, resenting, roaring.

They surrounded him, tortured him, and bit him.

A life for a life, a life for a life.

Revenge, revenge, revenge.

This was the scene he was most afraid of and the ultimate secret he did not want others to know.

He screamed, wailed, and collapsed.

Miserable cries sounded from the bathroom used by the VIP guests.

When the waiters heard this, they tried to open the door, but it was as if the door had been welded shut. Even if five or six waiters tried hard together, they could not push it open.

Someone went to get the fire axe, but this took time. After a while, the door suddenly opened. The lights were bright and shining inside, and the air was fresh. A figure scrambled out and wailed inhumanly. Almost all the staff recognized Young Master Xie.

Someone wanted to help him, but he was ruthlessly shaken off.

Xie Guangjun’s eyes were dazed and his face was filled with fear as he roared, “Don’t come over!”

He ran quickly.

There was a commotion in the noisy nightclub. When people heard the commotion, they looked over in shock. The well-dressed man rolled and crawled like a dog and flew in a sorry state. He rolled on the ground, then kowtowed and knelt around, crying and roaring, saying nonsense.

“Spare me, spare me. I was careless. I didn’t want to kill you!”

“Don’t come to me. Please, I’ll invite an eminent monk to exorcise you and let you reincarnate well!”

“I’ll burn money for you, a lot of money!”

“I killed you, Momo. I’m sorry. I’m a beast. I’m not human. I caused you to not even have a complete corpse. I’ll compensate you. Don’t come to me. I’ll get the eminent monk to exorcise you!”

The expressions of the lackeys and friends who came forward changed. They wanted to stop Xie Guangjun from speaking, but they were ruthlessly pushed away. This voice was very loud and many people heard it. The men and women of the nightclub stopped and watched. Someone took out his phone and began to record and take videos.

Some people were whispering.

“He must be high. He looks like a rich person. Why would he touch such a thing?”

“Is that true?”

“It’s most likely true. F*ck.”

“Is there a reward for reporting it to the police station?”

An watched from afar and did not understand what was going on.

Not long after, the manager of the nightclub rushed over with the staff and security guards. This scene was very large. They had many missions, and it was also extremely important to hide the ugliness of their big clients.

However, before they could do anything, Xie Guangjun jumped up with an ecstatic expression.

“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll get lost! I’ll get lost!”

He quickly rushed towards the door and even the two security guards blocking the way were knocked to the side. The lackeys shouted and chased after him, but they could not catch up for a moment. It was human nature to watch the commotion. As soon as people surged out, the security guards could not stop them. When Xiao An squeezed out after them, they saw Xie Guangjun’s supercar roar as it crossed the parking lot and rushed onto the road at an extremely fast speed.

At the same time, a car rushed over from the other side at an extremely high speed.

There was no slowing down, no deviation in direction as if they were deliberately going to collide. Under everyone’s stunned gazes, the two cars collided on the silent and cold street. A huge sound soared into the sky, and fragments flew. They saw the airbag instantly expand. The two cars broke through the railing and collided with the opposite wall. There was another violent sound.

Then, a flame flashed and burned violently until it expanded into a huge fireball.

The two cars caught fire at the same time.

Xie Guangjun’s heart-wrenching scream crossed the street and spread here.

As if waking up from a dream, the crowd screamed in panic. The nightclub manager’s roar suppressed everything, calling the guests to leave and guiding order. He also brought his mother’s fire extinguisher over and called the police.

In the chaos, Xiao An looked at all of this in a daze. For some reason, she felt that it was a little strange that such a thing had happened in the blink of an eye. Previously, Xie Guangjun was in high spirits. How did he become like this after a trip to the toilet? Moreover, the car that collided did not look like an accident at all.

Instead, it looked like deliberate murder.

For some reason, she thought of the two rings that sounded like an illusion.

She suddenly felt that it was a little cold tonight, really a little cold.

There was only one thing that could be confirmed.

Xie Guangjun’s good days had ended… Even if he survived, he was finished.

Tonight was so f*cking strange.

Xie Ligan’s youngest son…

Many people would probably not be able to sleep tonight.

When he thought of Xie Guangjun’s high-spirited and arrogant attitude earlier and how he had fallen to this state in the blink of an eye, Xiao An also sighed heavily. Fate really made fools of people.

Kang De’s figure appeared at home.

The location of the sofa and coffee table was empty. Kang De carried a sofa in one hand and the heavy coffee table in the other as he gently placed the two pieces of furniture back.

“I didn’t expect the mirror item of the white fog world to have such a use.”

The sofa and coffee table might be stained with something they should not have. Human tissue, small bloodstains, and even the phenomenon of death… It was better to be careful.

The automatic robot in the corner began to clean the ground on its own.

Kang De looked around and saw no problems.

Therefore, he carried the leather bag, opened the door, and jumped back to his hometown from the white fog world.

The house was silent and the village was peaceful. Occasionally, a dog would bark from afar. Everyone was sleeping.

He took off his shoes and got into bed. He covered himself with the blanket and yawned.

Nothing happened tonight.
