    Only one can live

    The ball of cloth stretched her lips apart, and blood flowed out from the crack. Melu almost suffocated. It took her a long time to pull the ball of cloth out of her mouth.

    “Be careful what you say in the future. You also know that I am going to die. I have nothing to lose and nothing to be afraid of.” Li Heru sat back on the sofa with her legs crossed. Her long hair was disheveled, and her long sharp eyes were full of indifference.

    Mei Lu raised her head to look at her, and then she belatedly realized that the woman in front of her was no longer the pitiful creature she had been before.

    She sat back on the edge of the bed angrily, clasping her hands together as if to be honest.

    If they really wanted to fight, she might not be Li Heru’s opponent, but she would really rather fight Mei Ning than face a mad dog whose strength is equal to hers but who is crazy and desperate for his life.

    Even though she must lose, Mei Ning is more or less a normal person and will not go crazy and even bite herself.

    “So why did the goddess send Tida away? Could it be that she is no longer satisfied with the pomp and circumstance of country T?” Melu took the initiative to return to the previous topic.

    “It’s very possible that she still relies on opening an antique toy store to attract people even at her old age. Isn’t it just to expand her reputation? This is a tourist city, and many of the customers in the store are foreigners. It can be seen that she has done a lot of publicity.”

    Li Heru said while leaning on the sofa.

    Mei Lu rubbed her sore face a few times and said slowly: “You are right, I was responsible for publicity and social account operations under her before. She has opened accounts all over the Internet, with the largest investment in the domestic market, and she often seeks out bloggers for advertising and marketing.”

    As she said that, she rummaged around on her phone for a moment and handed the screen over.

    In the picture, a pretty woman is wearing a Lolita dress, with some playful freckles painted on her cheeks. She is holding a dark purple box with SPIRIT OF PLAY printed on it in her hand, and is introducing it to the camera.

    “All my old fans who follow me know that I am a blogger, so today we are going to unbox a medieval doll that has become very popular on social platforms recently.

    This store is located in country T. The owner is a witch with family heritage. It is a genuine product, so this doll also has many unexpected effects.”

    Speaking of this, she smiled mysteriously, and the lights suddenly dimmed. With the background music rising and falling, Chu Yu couldn’t help but open the comment area.

    -Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, basis, basis?? Have you reviewed this store as well?This is really super popular. I will definitely bring one back when I go on a business trip next month. Woohoo.

    -Their family is really evil…but it is really useful. The children I took back really helped me a lot. Many incredible hardships have been resolved. I only feel grateful [put hands together].

    Many people responded to her below:

    -Really?What are the purchasing channels?Please purchase on behalf of me!

    -Same request, I really want to take one back, I have liked it for a long time~

    Several accounts with IP addresses from Country T jumped up and down in the comment area, and the replies were nothing more than, “Private me, sincerely purchase from me, just click on my homepage.”

    “Is there someone buying it on behalf of me? Don’t you have to pay for this kind of thing yourself?” Chu Yu couldn’t help but look at Mei Lu.

    Mei Lu curled her lips and said: “If you really want to invite me in person, how can there be such a large audience? The prerequisite for making a lot of money is that the road is open. If the road is not open, who will buy your things.”

    Chu Yu nodded, Mei Ning was not a nouveau riche boss, it was too vulgar for people who knew these strange powers to just talk about money.

    If we don’t talk about money, what else are we talking about?

    Thinking of this, Chu Yu’s face changed slightly.

    Mei Ning is obviously no longer satisfied with the T country market, and has set her sights on the country, which has a large population, vast land and abundant resources, and seeks marketing from various bloggers just to open up the market.

    At that time, a large number of soul-imbued dolls would enter the country. Thinking of the She Zang beast in the mansion where Zhu Qingjue lived, Chu Yu secretly thought something was wrong.

    The blogger on the screen was still introducing the doll. Chu Yu turned off his phone and said seriously: “This matter needs to be considered in the long run.”

    “I want to know who Mei Ning is? What resources and abilities does she have? What is her relationship with you? Only by understanding these can we plan a plan.” There were several pens on the bookshelf nearby. Chu Yu looked at Mei Lu and asked. She nodded. Chu Yu took down the pen and paper together.

    With the tip of the pen hanging on the paper, Chu Yu cast an inquiring gaze on Li Heru. The corners of her lips were slightly raised and she tilted her head towards her.

    “Be honest.”

    Li Heru smiled helplessly. She stood up and smoothed the pleats on her coat gracefully.

    “What do you want to know about me?” Her eyes were deep. Chu Yu looked directly at her, his lips slightly parted: “Everything.”

    “I just died five years ago. I was a weak wandering spirit. Mei Ning originally picked me up to make a puppet. She took a fancy to my potential talents and asked me if I would be willing to be her experimental subject. The reward would be to gain strength and extend my existence in the earthly world.

    I agreed to her and acted as Mei Ning’s thug at first. Later, as my strength became stronger, Mei Ning trusted me more and more. Later, I ran away and met you in the temple.”

    “It’s over?” Chu Yu didn’t start writing. She looked at Li Heru with a profound look.

    “What else do you want?” Li Heru didn’t seem to understand what she meant.

    “How did you die? What happened when you were a human being? Why did you see me in the temple, because you designed this encounter?” Chu Yu rubbed the parchment, and the rough touch ran across his fingertips, like a feather across his heart.

    Li He smiled like a sigh.

    “Let me go out first. What are you doing in broad daylight?” Mei Lu also sighed, and she pretended to get up. Chu Yu suddenly said: “Don’t leave.”

    “Get out.” Li Heru also said.

    The two voices overlapped, and Mei Lu looked embarrassed. She resisted rolling her eyes and said speechlessly: “Who should I listen to?”

    “Oh my, tell me about Mei Ning, I want to know her current strength.” Chu Yu turned over and ignored Li Heru who was standing aside and said to Mei Lu.

    “I’d better go out and not get involved in the young couple’s affairs.” Mei Lu said with a fake smile, and the hanging on the back of the door jingled, and she kindly closed the door.

    There were only two of them left in the room, Li Heru crossed his arms and looked gloomy.

    Chu Yu only felt her chest tightening, as if there was never enough oxygen in this damn house. She put down her pen and walked to the window to pull the lanyard of the blinds.

    With a strong tug, the rope was pulled down. The blinds on the cold wall did not move at all. They turned out to be false window frames.

    Standing in front of the wall, she held the lanyard in her hand as if facing the wall and thinking about it. Li Heru stood there silently.

    Chu Yu became more and more irritable.

    She has always been good-tempered, calm and collected, and always maintains a calm demeanor. She rarely has this kind of…moment where she loses control of her emotions.

    Li Heru can always easily arouse her anger. She is gentle, considerate, and mysterious. Whenever she wants to know more about Li Heru’s past, she always hits a wall of air.

    Outside the wall she gritted her teeth, but inside the wall she remained motionless.

    Sensing the steps of the person behind him, Chu Yu took a deep breath and determined to go out before her.

    Turning his head, he bumped into the woman’s soft breasts.

    This place always seems to be more fragrant than elsewhere, with the smell of Li Heru’s own skin, plus the fragrance emanating from her hair.

    It filled Chu Yu’s chest, and she was made dizzy by the breath. When she raised her head again, she couldn’t say anything she wanted to say.

    “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean it. It’s just that the time has not come yet. I don’t want to say this to you yet. It’s not a good memory. It doesn’t matter if you forget it.” Li Heru lowered her head, and a few strands of slightly curly hair hung down beside her face. She looked like a drowned kitten, pitifully waiting for its owner to show mercy.

    Chu Yu bit his lip, this guy was so scheming!Using the beauty trap, she suddenly dispersed her hard-earned anger.

    “But I want to know, I want to know everything about you, when will the time be right?” Chu Yu tried his best to keep the corners of his lips downward.

    Li Heru hooked his hands around her neck and pressed half of his body against her: “Wait a minute, let me tell you about Mei Ning.”

    *

    No one knew about Mei Ning’s past, but fortunately, Mei Lu was a big talker. When she and Li Heru were chatting together, most of the topics were about how to kill her sister and about her tragic childhood.

    They come from an ancient and mysterious family. This ethnic group has been passed down from generation to generation, so only one person in each generation inherits the magic and family property.

    Only in Mei Ning’s generation, her mother actually gave birth to twins. According to the ancestral teachings, this was an ominous sign.

    Twins will kill each other in the mother’s womb, increasing the damage to the mother’s body. Therefore, the younger sister of the twins is regarded as the reincarnation of the devil, which will bring disaster to the family in the future.

    Mei Lu was born thirty seconds later than Mei Ning, and became the unfortunate reincarnation of a demon.

    “Decades!! You don’t even know how I survived! Li Heru told you too briefly, just listen to me, I’m sure it will make you cry.” The door suddenly opened, and Mei Lu rushed in with a roar.

    He was grabbed by Li Heru again.

    “Are you hiding outside the door and eavesdropping?” Li Heru’s fists were clenched.

    “This is my home, what’s wrong with eavesdropping? I’m going to tell you, don’t interrupt.” Mei Lu turned around and patted Li Heru’s hand away, and said to Chu Yu with a beaming look.

    “… Just tell me.”

    “The Goddess is as wary of me as she is of thieves, and so are those old guys. The whole family is wary of me. We are obviously from a noble magic family, but I can only do odd jobs at home, doing things that ordinary people can do.

    After the goddess came of age, she received the family property. In order to prevent me from stealing lessons outside, she signed a blood curse to force me to be her slave. In name, I was her partner and sister, but in fact…

    I am just a stranger who is guarded against everything.”

    Mei Lu curled her lips indifferently. She was wearing a low-necked sweater today. The intricate tattoos spread from her chin to her chest. She noticed Chu Yu’s gaze and pulled up her clothes.

    “She cast the blood curse, so don’t blame me for being cruel to her. Since there can only be one child in this family, why not me?

    Kill her and I will be the only one.”

    Mei Lu chuckled, her two tiger teeth pointed like a giant crocodile lurking in the Amazon river.
