Rebirth: I am the boss uncle

Chapter 634 Useless!

Ye Youxuan stared expressionlessly at the woman pleading for mercy before him, his eyes lowered slightly, and his voice drifted out, sounding like a sigh, like helplessness.

"If I spare you, who will spare me?"

Ye Youxuan ignored the woman, turned to look at himself in the mirror, and tilted his head in confusion.

"Didn't you say you could let me see them? Didn't you say... that I wouldn't have any regrets? But why... can't I see them! Why... can't I see them?"

After asking the question, Ye Youxuan stood still, tilting her head to look in the mirror. The scene was incredibly eerie, causing even the woman who had spent so much time in the ghost town to involuntarily swallow hard.

Then, Ye Youxuan, who had been standing motionless, slowly bent down. The woman trembled as she looked at him, followed by laughter.

Ye Youxuan bent over, clutching his loose hair, trying his best to control his emotions. He walked towards the mirror, then leaned against it, his right cheek pressed tightly against the mirror. He slowly raised his hand, touching his index finger to his reflection. His eyes, which had become incredibly alluring because of what he had experienced, were slightly narrowed, searching for the warmth of his other self in the mirror...

The woman in the corner trembled with fear at Ye Youxuan's seemingly insane appearance. After surviving that "catastrophe," she had overheard her colleagues discussing Ye Youxuan, calling him a madman, a lunatic! Some even said he was... a true god banished to the mortal realm...

But she clearly felt that he was a gradually mad... flesh-and-blood... person.

Ye Youxuan leaned against the mirror in silence for a long, long time...

The woman looked at the crazed Ye Youxuan with suspicion, a terrifying thought flashing through her mind.

"You...you knew I existed from the very beginning? You knew what I was going to do from the very beginning? You did it on purpose, didn't you! Didn't you!!!"

Ye Youxuan, leaning against the mirror, raised an eyebrow slightly and slowly straightened up.

"Hmm~ So it seems you're not so stupid after all!"

The woman's eyes were filled with fear.

"Why? Why do this?"

Even if you are in good health, the invasion of ghostly energy will leave you with considerable damage, let alone someone like Ye Youxuan. If he is not careful, he may really die.

The woman didn't understand, nor could she comprehend. She had wandered this world as a ghost for many years. She was no longer human; she had lost all human emotions. All that remained in her heart was pain, hatred, and the...obsession with being human...

Ye Youxuan stared expressionlessly at the woman in the corner, noticing the confusion on her face. Then, turning to look at himself in the mirror, he couldn't hide his disappointment.

“I know… people can only see things they can’t see normally when they’re on the verge of death. I know you exist, but I can’t actually see you… You’re right, it was all intentional, deliberately luring you in. But… they were too cowardly to even approach! You, on the other hand, are quite bold! What a pity…”

As Ye Youxuan spoke, he slowly walked to the woman's side, looking down at her with eyes full of disappointment and disdain.

"What a pity he's a piece of trash! He's utterly useless!"

As Ye Youxuan spoke, he gently lifted the woman's chin with a wooden hairpin.

"I've paved the way for you, you were just one step away from success, but you still disappointed me... You know what? I've been waiting, waiting for this opportunity, but unfortunately, I never expected to get a complete waste of space!!! Nobody... can see it... not even myself."

The last sentence was so soft that even the woman couldn't hear it. Seeing that something was wrong with Ye Youxuan, the woman, who hadn't felt cold in a long time, suddenly felt a chill run down her spine...

"...I...I...I'm sorry, it's my fault, it's my fault. Let's...let's try again, just one more time!"

The woman pleaded, not knowing why she was saying it—it sounded so bizarre, so ironic, so ridiculous—but... all she wanted now was to show she was still useful, so she could keep living.

Ye Youxuan shook his head helplessly and said regretfully.

"I'm sorry! You only have one chance, and I... I only have one chance too!"

Looking at the woman with pity, he slowly lifted her chin and turned it, gesturing for her to follow his gaze to a red dot in another corner.

Ye Youxuan smiled sarcastically and said

"I gave you one chance, and they only gave me one chance too! ...So, you didn't cherish this opportunity, you lost, and I...I lost too..."

The woman shook her head in fear.

"No! No! No!!! Let me go! Let me go! Please, please, spare me! Spare me!!! I haven't taken my revenge yet, I haven't killed the person who betrayed me, I haven't killed the person who ruined me, I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!!! I don't want to disappear!!!"

The woman pleaded desperately, knowing that the man before her had a soft heart. She believed that if she begged him a little longer, he would let her go, just like he had the chance to hurt that person but didn't. She thought he would forgive her...

Ye Youxuan tenderly stroked the woman's head. Just when the woman thought she could live, he suddenly grabbed her hair, pulling her head to one side to expose her fair neck. With a swift movement, the wooden hairpin he had been holding was now piercing the woman's neck...

The woman clutched her neck in terror, staring at Ye Youxuan in disbelief. She couldn't believe he had acted so quickly! He wouldn't let her go! Wasn't he supposed to be kind? Why...why wouldn't he let her go!

"Why...why?"

Ye Youxuan looked at the woman in front of him and once again pulled out the wooden hairpin without hesitation.

"Because... I've never been a good person!"

"Ahhh-"

The excruciating pain of her soul being torn apart caused the woman unbearable agony; her face contorted in agony, and she lunged forward, trying to grab Ye Youxuan.

But Ye Youxuan calmly watched the woman's figure reach towards his ankle, and then watched her slowly disappear before his eyes.

Calmly wiping away the black residue from the wooden hairpin, he raised his eyes and sighed softly.

"Alas~ the blood of innocent people is your inevitable end!"

Ye Youxuan turned around and smiled at the person on the other side of the monitor, then slowly raised her hand... (an international friendly gesture).
