Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess

Chapter 36: Surprise Gifts

Maybe because the world is round that true equality doesn't exist. Like the wheel of a car or bicycle. The dirt that is stuck on it would have its ups and downs since even if its owner made it stop, there would come a day when it would begin spinning again.

While there were people that had safely and comfortably passed the night, there were also individuals like Jiang Li and Bai Qing who didn't. The difference was that the former made that choice, while the latter was forced.

While Jiang Li was busy creating the surprise gift for Cheng Yijun, Bai Qing had already received hers, around midnight. The timing was so perfect considering the fact that it was a very unholy time of the day. Darkness loomed above everything and creatures that no normal people would want to see were beginning to be active.

"Bai... Qing..."

A voice echoed from this very darkness. It was so near the sleeping female lead's ears that she couldn't help scrunching up her face for a while.

A few seconds passed. The phone lying next to her pillow vibrated and lit up. It disturbed the girl who instinctively reached out to it.

'Who's that?' Her fingers slid across the screen as she accepted the call.

"Bai... Qing..."

'Hmm?' Spooked out by the struggling, husky unfamiliar female voice and the eerie sounds from the background, her eyes flew open.

The voice which seemingly came from the underworld rang again, calling out her name. Her finger started trembling as she distanced her ears from the phone.

Bai Qing's room was only illuminated by the light coming from the lampshade. It's only giving off a dim yellowish glow. This was why when the girl's eyes went down to her phone's screen and she saw that what she accepted was not a voice call, but a video one, it seemed like the deathly pale haggard face of a woman there had crawled up from the shadows and entered her phone.

On that moment, the girl stopped breathing, her eyes that were almost popping out of their sockets seemed to have played with her.

The ghostly woman smiled. The woman wearing the face of one of her suitors' dead girlfriend smiled!

"Remember me?"

Before the woman on the screen could finish her speech, Bai Qing had already screamed at the top of her lungs and threw the phone away. The female lead even ran out of her bed, barefooted, and yelling even after she reached downstairs.

If only the girl didn't do that, she would have heard the voice still playing and realized that something was wrong. Alas, fear struck her so much, she didn't hear the 'female mobile phone ghost' say,

"Hello, Bai Qing. Do you remember me? Do you remember my face? How about my scumbag boyfriend? I'm currently in the other world, waiting for both of you to enter hell. Ooops, but actually, I'm not who you think I am. Well, whatever. You won't know this is just a prank anyway, since for sure, when you saw my face, you've already fled away. Hahaha!"

After that, the video call ended by itself, the call logs and every trace of it automatically got deleted.

From the hotel where the culprit behind this was, Jiang Li kept praising the powerful video/photo editing tool that Hao Gang had developed as he used it to create another folder of files for the male lead, this time with photos and cries of babies.

Jiang Li intended for the Cheng bastard to remember those innocent fetuses that he ordered to be aborted and killed. As he tried to ignore the goosebumps, he laughed. Because if even he was spooked out beyond belief by the cries and laughter of the babies, what more of a guilty man like the male lead?

'I'm sure that Cheng scum is not so mentally stable today due to the rumors and news! If I finish this before 3 am, it is going to be a jackpot!'

The man thought, laughing so wildly and crazily while his fingers flew all over the keyboard.

As for Bai Qing, when she ran down the stairs and got to the living room, she thought she was already safe since the place was brightly shone upon by the fluorescent lamps.

However, it didn't take that long for her to realize that she was still in a nightmarish world. Relief came too fast, and it also fluttered away just as fast.

The lights of the place flickered for a few seconds before completely dying. Bai Qing once again held her breath. Her face turned very pale, as if colors were forcibly drained from it. Her body began to tremble as fear madly consumed her.

A few meters ahead, the huge flatscreen TV suddenly lit up. And the familiar faces of women in white funeral gown-like attire began to show, repeatedly flashing like a slide show. However, every time the same face appeared, there would be some noticeable difference from the previous. It was like the faces were moving.

They were all looking at her! Watching her! Smiling eerily at her!

As the female lead madly trembled and cried, the slideshow stopped at a woman with dried white lips and no eyes, only empty eye sockets. Bai Qing knew who she was. Zhao Zhen. The girl who committed suicide two days ago.

When the ghostly woman moved, like she was about to come out of the screen, Bai Qing shook her head for a while. Then fainted. Yet before she totally lost consciousness, she seemed to have heard the white lady say, "... Why did... you kill me?"

Jiang Li didn't know, but the faces and those words would forever hunt the woman in her sleep.

As for Bai Qing, while she lied on the floor in an unsightly posture, she was not aware that a maid in her early thirties came out of the nearby kitchen to flip the lights open and switch off the TV.

The maid happily browsed her phone.

The app that she opened was one where micro-tasks could be issued by clients and accepted by people like her. Every task would reward points which could then be collected and exchanged for money.

The woman loved the app since the missions were easy, like taking a picture of a dog, or solving puzzles, or answering quizzes about different brands of items. Basically all sorts of tasks that require little to no effort.

"Waaahhh! I don't know who she or he is. But this task-giver sure is so generous. For turning on the TV in the dark at midnight, he rewarded me with ten thousand points! Awww, I really love this app. Just this mission alone allowed me to earn almost a fourth of my monthly pay!"

The woman jumped and squealed in joy for a full minute before discovering Bai Qing who, without her knowledge, had been scared out of her wits by the tasks that the maid innocently accepted from Jiang Li.
