Chapter 384: Chapter 384: Naive and Cruel

Ariel’s room is predominantly pink, with a princess-style large bed, and on the plush carpet are various furry stuffed animals. Walking barefoot on it feels like stepping on cotton, the sensation is wonderful.

Lin Mengyao felt her frightened heart was comforted, but this comfort shattered upon seeing the array of animal skeletons displayed in the cabinet and a human skeleton beside the cabinet.

Lin Mengyao felt her face could no longer smile; her facial muscles stiffened as if they no longer belonged to her.

In the midst of the room’s princess vibe, such a thing suddenly appearing was not only a visual shock for Lin Mengyao but a mental one as well.

"Why do you have these in your room?" Lin Mengyao asked, pointing at the skeletons.

"What’s the matter? Don’t you think they look beautiful and cool? Look at how perfect their bones are, much better looking than those jade artifacts or whatever. Besides, don’t you think they clash with the house’s design? Imagine a cute and sweet princess living in a magnificent and sweet room. By day, she’s a beloved little princess, but by night, she’s a wicked witch who enjoys studying the bodies of living creatures, taking pleasure in killing. Doesn’t that sound super cool?"

Ariel batted her starry eyes, looking adorably at Lin Mengyao and Xu Ke. Xu Ke remained expressionless and unmoved, and Lin Mengyao, who once adored those eyes, resisted this childlike innocence.

At this moment, Lin Mengyao no longer saw Ariel as a cute girl needing protection; instead, she felt a chill all around. Everything Ariel said made Lin Mengyao feel like she was talking about herself.
