Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Lu Zhiyuan didn’t fail her emotionally. He always brought her warmth, stability, and excitement. How could she hate him? Her obsession is merely because she couldn’t get what she desired; it’s her illness, nothing to do with Lu Zhiyuan.

“I don’t understand!” Qin Wan was confused. “Love is love, and hate is hate. You loved him so passionately once, and you don’t hate him at all after breaking up?”

Gu Ci jokingly asked, “Have you ever been in love?”

“No!”

“Ever had a crush on someone?”

Qin Wan paused for a moment, then shook her head, “No!”

“Between men and women, love and hate can change in an instant. Maybe it was just wishful thinking on my part. I’ve always had a crush on Lu Zhiyuan, but he doesn’t love me. I can’t hate him for that, can I?” Gu Ci said. “If he doesn’t love me, it’s my lack of charm, my failure to make him fall for me. If he loves me but can’t be with me, he has his reasons, which are less significant than mine. Ultimately, it’s not his fault. He never lied or denied our past, so how can I hate him?”

Qin Wan didn’t quite understand Gu Ci’s obsession. “Don’t be sad. There are plenty of men out there.”

Yes, there are many men in the world, but there’s only one Lu Zhiyuan for her.

She only wanted Lu Zhiyuan.

No matter how talented, gentle, and wise others might be, they’re not her Lu Zhiyuan.

But she and he have reached a dead end. She begged, played the victim, even imprisoned him, but to no avail. She can’t see a future and has lost hope.

Qin Wan was actually quite happy about Gu Ci breaking up with Lu Zhiyuan. She wished she could set off fireworks to celebrate. Her master wouldn’t be hesitant anymore. She thought it was good, hoping they would never get back together.

Once Lu Zhiyuan returned to Black Hawk, he asked Li Jiang to bring Ji Chi over.

Ji Chi, annoyed, wanted to punch him but casually said, “My legs are long, 1 accidentally stepped on you.”

Lu Zhiyuan didn’t respond.

Rong Li, still annoyed, asked, “Third Master, are we really going all out to save Jiang Junlin? He’s of no use to us alive. That minister just contacted you, offering very favorable terms. The exchange of interests with the underworld network of Jidao won’t be a stumbling block for us anymore. If he remains alive, we’ll have to re-plan everything.”

Ji Chi was aware of the situation. Last night, during a video conference, Lu Zhiyuan, Ji Chi, and Rong Li were in the meeting room along with members of the Bronn family. It was Bronn who connected this line, offering terms too favorable for Black Hawk to refuse.

During the meeting, Ji Chi remained silent, like a mute, just listening to Bronn, Lu Zhiyuan, and the minister discussing. He was aware of his place; this matter was a top secret of Black Hawk’s high command, and without Lu Zhiyuan’s permission, he didn’t reveal anything to Gu Ci.

After the meeting, Lu Zhiyuan, Rong Li, and Ji Chi also discussed the situation. Both Lu Zhiyuan and Rong Li, both publicly and privately, stood on the same ground, and Ji Chi couldn’t oppose their decision. But he couldn’t just watch Jiang Junlin die either. He wouldn’t betray Black Hawk, but he was ready to die alongside Jiang Junlin.

Ji Chi hadn’t expected the situation to take such a turn.

Lu Zhiyuan had changed his mind.

“Ji Chi, if Jiang Junlin stays alive, you’ll no longer be the successor I’ve been grooming,” Lu Zhiyuan mentioned for the first time. This had been an underlying issue since Jiang Junlin’s identity was revealed and had finally surfaced.

Rong Li frowned and said solemnly, “Ji Chi, think carefully before you answer. People may betray you, but money and power never will. If you stand in the sky, you can have anyone you want, but if you fall to the ground, even the one who once held your heart will step on you. In this world, it’s easy to find fair-weather friends but rare to find those who help in times of need. It’s better to bet on the power and money you can hold in your hand than on someone’s undivided loyalty.”

Men, after all, prioritize wealth and interests first, with love being just an added bonus.

The room was warm, and he was wearing his usual thin white shirt, accentuating his pale complexion. He looked like a lost, confused little wolf dog, forced to leave his pack.

Ji Chi’s eyes reddened slightly, recalling his days as a street wanderer when he was three years old. Abandoned at that young age, he was controlled by a homeless man who used him to beg on the streets. The man initially planned to break his leg to make the begging more convincing. However, Ji Chi, though young, sensed the danger. Using his cute and appealing looks, he begged in a different way than others. Instead of looking pitiable, he appeared adorable, quickly earning money for the homeless man.

Delighted by this newfound source of income, the man decided not to break Ji Chi’s leg. At three years old, Ji Chi couldn’t escape an adult’s control. The money he earned was all taken by the homeless man.

The homeless man, once middle-class, had become bankrupt after an economic crisis, losing his house and abandoned by his wife and daughter. He lived with an old dog, his only companion. With the money Ji Chi earned, the man would buy two burgers, giving Ji Chi only a half-eaten burger bun while his dog got the beef patty. Ji Chi’s treatment was worse than the dog’s.

Hungry and dizzy every day, Ji Chi cried and begged the homeless man for more food, only to be met with a harsh slap. The man told him that his only purpose in life was to earn them money..
