Book 1: Chapter 105
I was silent for a few minutes as my eyes swept around the room. Everyone else also remained silent. I quickly began trying to figure out what was going on.
My first reaction was that Uncle Three had been found, but may have passed away. Or he was in a very bad state and suffering from something like dementia, serious illness, or disability.
I took a deep breath and asked myself if I could accept it.
In fact, I could accept it because I had spent so many years mentally preparing myself for this kind of thing. Although the illusory news would give people a glimmer of hope, they could also have peace of mind once they knew.
I took a deep breath and let myself accept it before starting to think about the second possibility.
Maybe I was going to die.
Ha Zong had said before that I was going to die, and I still believed that his expression had been genuine at the time. Even though everything he had said after that was illogical, that one sentence truly was frightening.
After thinking about it, it made more sense that I was going to die rather than my Uncle Three being dead.
But could I accept it?
I looked at Fatty, Xiao Hua, Poker-Face, Uncle Two, Kan Jian, and Baishe.
I realized that I couldn't accept it, because I couldn't believe that there was already no way out for me when I was still eating my takeout.
I couldnt resist jokingly asking, "No way, am I going to die? Why are you all looking at me like that?"
Kan Jian immediately burst into tears and ran out.
Xiao Hua looked at me with a complicated expression on his face, and I was surprised to find that I might have guessed right.
I laughed and suddenly felt a burning sensation in my nose. After touching it, I found that I had a nosebleed.
