38 Sick thrill

" Ah, president Liao, you are already here," said Li Rou with a simpering smile, she hurriedly dragged Song Yan inside like she was worried the latter would run away before tightly closing the door behind her.

Song Yan watched Li Rou sombrely and let her forcibly drag her inside the room. Just one look around the room and one would know that this was not a place for serious discussion. There was a faint musk scent in the room and rose petals were scattered all over the floor, and what was even more surprising was all the X-rated toys that were hanging on the wall including a bloody whip.

" Song Yan, this president Liao. Go ahead and greet him." Li Rou turned to look at Song Yan who finally got a glimpse of the mysterious President Liao.  Her brows furrowed as she stared at the man in front of her a set of sunken eyes with redness coating them, flabby lips and a sunken pallor despite his fat body.

Behind him stood three girls, one had her hands curled around his neck as she menacingly hissed, " Return my life to me, return it!"

While the other two seemed to have understood their circumstances and instead of wasting their immeasurable time, hissing and cursing Liao Jiming, the two were sucking the yang energy of his body.

Nothing better than a slow painful death.

Song Yan smirked as she looked at president Liao's greasy face before she smiled and asked, " President Liao, have you ever heard of an actress called Mu Lei?"

President Liao who just stood up to greet Song Yan stiffened and his eyes sharply turned to Li Rou who was just as shocked as president Liao.

Why? Why was Song Yan asking about Mu Lei? That girl was already dead and had been dead for six months, even the news related to her has been suppressed by Li Rou and President Liao's collective efforts.

When President Liao saw that Li Rou was just as shocked as him, he cleared his throat and smiled. " Mu Lei? This is my first time hearing this name, who is she another actress from your batch?"

" You don't know about her? That's surprising, then what about Lin Xiuying?"

" I … I don't know her either?"

" Then what about Yu Min Tao?"

" I …Agent Li, what is this? Aren't you two here to discuss business with me, why is this girl asking about girls whose names I haven't even heard about?"

President Liao was shocked and for the first time, he felt that there was something wrong with the girl whom Li Rou brought to serve him. How did she know about the names of the girls that he killed? Actually, he never wanted to kill Yu Min Tao at first, it was just an accident. That girl fought too hard against him and he accidentally killed her… that was nothing but an unfortunate accident.

However, when Yu Min Tao was fighting for her life, President Liao had gotten a sick excitement as he watched the life draining out of her eyes. It was both thrilling and exciting.

President Liao had always accepted his sadistic streak but he never knew that he was this addicted.

To check whether or not he liked it, he asked Li Rou to bring another woman in exchange for a role in another blockbuster director's movie for Song Lan, of course, the latter agreed. She immediately made arrangements, for another woman and delivered her in his arms. That night, he deliberately killed Lin Xiuying and realised that he indeed got an exciting thrill after killing a woman.

After that he became addicted and that was how he killed Mu Lei.

Song  Yan was supposed to be one of his victims but there was something really — he didn't know how to point it out, she made him scared instead of thrilled.

The ones who were even more surprised by president Liao were the three female ghosts, who stopped what they were doing and stood up straight, their wary eyes locked on Song Yan as the ghost of Mu Lei asked, " Can you see us?"

Song Yan didn't answer instead she smiled. The three female ghosts stilled, as they hungrily looked at her.

" Can you help us get revenge?" asked Liu Xiuying her tongue that was lolling out of her throat made her speech even more incomprehensible. " This man and that agent the two of them conspired to kill us, we have been waiting here for years to avenge ourselves—"

" Song Yan, what's the matter with you?" Liu Xiuying was still speaking when Li Rou interrupted her with her loud shrill voice. " Are you out of your mind? Why are you speaking the name of those women who snatched my money and ran away?"

" Money? What did she say?"

" it looks like she made us look like scammers."

"Damn her, she actually snatched our lives and yet blamed us for committing a crime!"

The three female ghosts with their tongues lolled out walked past President Liao and started shouting at Li Rou.

" You darned woman because of you,  I lost my life! Do you know that man killed me by choking me in the water! Do you even know how it feels to get both suffocated and choked at the same time?"

" Li Rou, how I wish I could smash your head with that bottle of alcohol that you made me drink before I lost consciousness, you are lucky my cultivation isn't high or else, I would have killed you every night!"

" Die! Li Rou, just go to hell"

The cries of the three female ghosts reeked of desperation and agony, however, Li Rou couldn't hear a thing that they were talking about, all her attention was on Song Yan who was looking down at her with an eerie smile, as her dark hair framed her face, making her entire appearance gloomy.

Song Yan didn't say anything at first instead she listened to what the three ghosts were saying before she coldly said, " Sister Rou, do you know it doesn't feel good to die while being choked to death in a bathtub."
