Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“You being alive surprises me,” Jiang Junlin suppressed his emotions, wanting a swift resolution. “Ji Chi, I’m sorry, 1 deceived you.”

“Don’t say it!” Ji Chi’s eyes turned red, his heart shattered, difficult to heal. “Do you really think 1 don’t understand anything?”

He understood, yet he was unwilling to let go.

To him, Jiang Junlin was a knife coated in sugar frosting, and he was greedy for that tiny bit of sweetness. So, he would rather hold onto the knife empty-handed, even if it meant bloodshed, he was willingly devoted.

“Since you understand, don’t be so persistent,” Jiang Junlin said with hidden restraint. “In the past or in the future, what you want, I’m afraid I can’t fulfill.”

“Do you know that after we reunited, I made a bet with Third Master?” Ji Chi shed tears, turned his head to wipe them away. “Third Master said that within three years, as long as you say a word to take me away, he will set me free. 1 can leave Black Hawk, and the world will be my oyster. But you never thought about taking me away, Jiang Junlin, why have you never mentioned it?”

Jiang Junlin thought to himself, because you wouldn’t leave!

No matter how much Jiang Junlin disliked Lu Zhiyuan, he understood that Ji Chi’s encounter with him was fortunate. At the time, he didn’t know that Lu Zhiyuan was grooming Ji Chi as his successor.

But Ji Chi’s rise within Black Hawk was too rapid, and it was obvious that someone was pushing him from behind. Jiang Junlin guessed that Ji Chi would definitely be heavily relied upon within Black Hawk, and Ji Chi wouldn’t give up the power of Black Hawk. He had to climb up step by step to grasp what he wanted, including wanting him back then!

If he took Ji Chi away, what could he give him? Could he give him the same power as Black Hawk?

No, he couldn’t!

Ji Chi was loyal to Lu Zhiyuan, even if he left, Jiang Junlin wouldn’t let him enter the Triad. One day, if there was a conflict between the Triad and Black Hawk, how would Ji Chi choose?

“Will you leave?” Jiang Junlin asked.

Ji Chi fell silent, not answering. Jiang Junlin smiled bitterly, “You already have an answer in your heart, why should 1 go through all this trouble?”

“You don’t even ask, how do you know 1 don’t want to!” Ji Chi roared in frustration, “You always think, you assume, you’re self-righteous and think you can read people’s minds. What if 1 agreed?”

You never even tried once, you just gave up on me!

“It’s because I’m not good, I’ve let you down,” Jiang Junlin said in a hoarse voice. “Ji Chi, I’m sorry!”

Ji Chi desperately restrained his madness.

Years of yearning, entwined until death, only exchanged for a single apology.

On the other side of the courtyard, Gu Ci pointed to the furthest corner, “Go over there!”

Lu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.

He walked over with a smile and sat on the rack. The closer Gu Ci got, the more uncomfortable he felt. Staying a bit farther away would make the pain more bearable.

“Did you deliberately force Brother to say those things?”

“Which part of what he said isn’t true?” Lu Zhiyuan said. “Cici, you’re too biased.”

“He’s my brother, of course, I’m biased towards him. Who are you?” Gu Ci frowned, looking at his pale face. Apart from being a bit weak, there was nothing unusual about his appearance. “You haven’t told me the truth.”

“I haven’t lied to you!”

“Yes, you just kept it from me. I’m asking you, what’s really wrong with your injury? It was clearly healed, but you’re still in pain?” Gu Ci was worried. “The last time 1 saw you, you were still unhealed, and you were in pain. I could understand that, but after all this time, why is it still hurting?”

Lu Zhiyuan looked deeply at Gu Ci. Pain was inevitable, and in his past life, he had experienced this kind of heart-wrenching pain. He endured it and didn’t want Gu Ci to see any clues.

For Gu Ci, he was willing to endure this kind of pain. It was both punishment and hope.

“I was too impatient. The medicine had a strong effect and caused side effects.” Lu Zhiyuan gazed at her. “Cici, you look very good lately.”

“Are you really not lying to me?”

“I’m really fine!” Lu Zhiyuan looked at her with a half-smile. “According to Ziyu, your recent love life seems to be going well.”

Gu Ci held back her emotions and smiled. “Yes, we are all students from A University, with common interests, lively and cheerful. We can play basketball together and play games together. They are all very sincere and open.”

Gu Ci emphasized the last sentence.

Her every move was reported to him by Ziyu. Lu Zhiyuan tacitly approved of Ziyu’s little tricks. Lu Zhiyuan knew that he and Gu Ci couldn’t stay together, couldn’t love each other. She was the pain and joy in his life that he couldn’t touch. But if she changed her mind and really fell in love with someone else, Lu Zhiyuan wondered, could he attend her wedding and give her away?

He could deceive Gu Ci, but he couldn’t deceive his own heart. He imagined these scenes, and they all felt unbearable.

Gu Ci’s nose tingled, and she averted her gaze. The dappled sunlight on Lu Zhiyuan was as beautiful as a painting. He had the calmness and composure of Third Master, as well as the wit and charm of Third Young Master.

This man stood in front of her, safe and sound, able to talk and laugh. He was so vivid, someone she had once begged the heavens for, willing to exchange her life for. Why, now that her wish had come true, was she not satisfied?

Gu Ci couldn’t help but reflect on herself. She had been too greedy.

To lose what one has regained is painful, and to love without being able to is also painful.

In life, pain always seems to outweigh happiness.

“When 1 recover from my illness, 1’11 officially take up the position in the Triad,” Gu Ci said. “Pei Qiuying has gone missing, and there hasn’t been an official order from the Triad’s dark web to hunt her down yet. I hope you’ll handle this matter.”

“Why should I handle this when it’s an Triad matter?” Lu Zhiyuan raised an eyebrow.

He had heard about Pei Qiuying’s situation a long time ago. Jiang Junlin wanted to settle scores after the fact, and Pei Qiuying wouldn’t be able to escape. However, the Triad hadn’t issued a manhunt order yet, and Pei Qiuying had been hiding recently with an unknown whereabouts. Neither Jiang Junlin nor Gu Ci would let her off easily.

“Is it because you can’t bear to kill her since you nurtured her?” Gu Ci’s tone could be described as gentle. Lu Zhiyuan lightly smiled, suppressing the pain in his heart. He had noticed something strange: the more Gu Ci’s emotions fluctuated, the more his pain intensified.

It was… quite bizarre!

“Why is Pei Qiuying so deeply attached to you? Because you nurtured her, appreciated her, and gave her hope. I want you to personally sever that hope!” Gu Ci’s possessiveness was still very strong. She believed that Lu Zhiyuan’s exclusive affection should belong to her alone, and Pei Qiuying had taken a part of it. She wanted it back!

She wanted Lu Zhiyuan to handle his emotional debt!

“Cici, this isn’t fair. Jiang Junlin also appreciates and nurtures her,” Lu Zhiyuan said softly. “Why are you singling me out?”

“So, you’re unwilling?” Gu Ci’s expression darkened, and she was clearly getting angry.

“Willing!” Lu Zhiyuan chuckled. “Since it’s your request, I’ll comply with it.”

“Smooth talker!” Gu Ci couldn’t help but think of Third Young Master. Only this version of Lu Zhiyuan, with the memories of this life, left her feeling complex, both like him and not.. But if he didn’t resemble him, he actually did, “Then 1’11 await your good news, Third Master!”
