Chapter 191

As Shen Yue wished, she became the warden of Cell Block 7, but her life didn't seem to change much compared to before.

Other than having a conversation with every inmate in Cell Block 7 on the first day, Shen Yue spent most of her other time with Tang Yi.

Not only did they do tasks together, they even went out together to stand guard at the prison gate. Despite other guards being around, it felt like the two of them were in their own little world.

Tang Yi would often wait for Shen Yue at the entrance of Cell Block 7. When Shen Yue saw him, she would scold him for wearing thin clothing and standing outside in the cold weather.

Tang Yi enjoyed being "scolded" by her. It gave him the illusion of being loved.

Later, seeing that no matter how much Shen Yue scolded him, Tang Yi would stubbornly wait for her at the entrance of Cell Block 7. She simply gave him a green pass so he could enter Cell Block 7 anytime without triggering the security system.

Half a year later, everyone in the prison knew that the warden of Cell Block 4 listened very much to the warden of Cell Block 7. The two were inseparable. What's more, anyone who upset the warden of Cell Block 7 would be found dead the next day.

Behind their backs, people said Tang Yi was Shen Yue’s mad dog who would bite her enemies without her command.

Tang Yi had always been very happy about this. He liked it when people talked about him and Shen Yue together.

Tang Yi was well aware that he was becoming less and less vigilant and more and more dependent on Shen Yue. He also knew that he was being eroded by her step by step. But there was nothing he could do.

Shen Yue’s company was like drugs to him. He knew it was harmful and would doom him, yet once he had a taste, he could no longer let go.

To quit, one would need extremely strong willpower and the belief in self-salvation. But Tang Yi did not have such belief. He was just clinging onto life, and every day alive was a day.

To Tang Yi, Shen Yue was the most beautiful scenery he saw and experienced while clinging onto his miserable life. He knew that his dependence on Shen Yue meant that if he were abandoned by her now, he would no longer be able to live on. But he couldn’t bear to let go, even if it meant eternal damnation.

The day before things truly erupted, Tang Yi was still clinging to Shen Yue, feeling lucky to have met her before his death.

Shen Yue’s eyes flickered. She naturally went along, “Seeing you kill people everywhere everyday, you don't seem like someone about to die.”

Tang Yi grinned and moved closer to Shen Yue’s side, “You don’t understand. That’s the last bit of warmth left in my life. Once it’s gone, I’ll be dead.”

“What do you think now? Do you still want to burn out and die?”

“When I was alone, I didn’t feel there was anything wrong with it. But now, having someone to accompany me feels so nice. Even if you have other motives, I don’t care. At least you know me.”

Shen Yue was not surprised that Tang Yi had sensed her impure intentions. She never thought she could truly deceive Tang Yi.

All she could do was give half true feelings and half calculations.

Get close to Tang Yi with calculations, but show true feelings when interacting. Only this way could she make Tang Yi willingly step into the trap he knew was in front of him.

“Um, let’s just keep going like this,” Shen Yue said gently.

“Okay, I won’t think too much. I’ll wait for you tomorrow~ I got some fun stuff for you from outside,” Tang Yi continued to cling to Shen Yue excitedly as he shared about his day.

But Shen Yue only responded lightly, “I need to take care of some things tomorrow, so I may come a bit later.”

“It’s fine even if it’s later. I’ll wait for you.”

Shen Yue nodded and patted Tang Yi on the head, “Good boy.”

“I’ll listen to you, so you must come tomorrow!” Tang Yi rubbed against Shen Yue, not noticing the growing coldness in her eyes.

The next day, Tang Yi did not see Shen Yue.

He went to Cell Block 7 to look for her, but not only did he not find anyone, he triggered the security system and was nearly shot.

At that instant, Tang Yi had already sensed what was going on, but he refused to believe it. He continued to wait at the entrance of Cell Block 7, hoping Shen Yue would come out like before to scold him for wearing thin clothing while waiting outside.

Of course he still did not see her. Tang Yi was a very stubborn person. He waited at the entrance of Cell Block 7 for five days without eating or drinking, ignoring the looks from people around him and advice from the inmates of his cell block. He was determined to see Shen Yue one more time.

On the sixth day, he finally saw Shen Yue.

But all he got was one questioning sentence from her.

“Masha, it was you who killed her, right?”

The moment he heard this, Tang Yi had a feeling that this would happen.

From the time he realized his dependence on Shen Yue, he knew this day would come eventually. He just didn't expect it to come so soon.

Tang Yi gave a bitter laugh. He really had no one to blame but himself for falling too deep too quickly, making Shen Yue move to capture him so soon without even giving him a bit more fantasy.

“You know now, don't you~” Tang Yi smiled and moved closer to Shen Yue, wanting to act cute with her. But Shen Yue dodged him.

Seeing Shen Yue dodge him, Tang Yi’s heart suddenly ached intensely like it was being squeezed.

He lowered his head and laughed, not knowing if he was laughing at himself or something else.

When he finished laughing, he raised his head again to stare at Shen Yue. His eyes glistened as he asked, "You don't want me anymore, do you?" Shen Yue's face was expressionless as she said coldly, "Yes."

"Aren't you my White Moon?"

"White Moon was just your fantasy. I never belonged to you," Shen Yue pronounced word for word as she personally pushed Tang Yi into hell.

Tang Yi laughed again. After he finished laughing this time, his face revealed some madness. He glared fiercely at Shen Yue, as if wanting to drag her down to hell with him.

"Do you know why I killed Masha? Because of you, Shen Yue. You and I agreed that you would listen to my reward request the next time we met. But you didn't allow people from Cell Block 4 to appear before you. I made Masha commit suicide so that you would voluntarily come out of Cell Block 1. Masha died for your sake!"

As Tang Yi spoke, he stared fixedly at Shen Yue's face. He wanted to see the same expression on Shen Yue's face. That way, he wouldn't feel lonely.

But to his disappointment, Shen Yue did not become crazy or despairing. She just looked at him askance, as if he were some filthy thing.

"Tang Yi, how unsightly."

"I don't want you anymore. Could you please die for me?"
