528. Chapter 528 : My Sluggishness
Who is it.
However, she didn't express any dissatisfaction with my sluggishness, and even explained to me in a good-natured manner: "I'm talking about Yue Wanying. Do you understand what I mean? ”
Yes, totally understood.
I frowned slightly: "Maybe...... Not exactly. ”
I was telling the truth, and I didn't mean to prevaricate or perfunctory her at all. I admit that I have always been a cowardly villain, and I dare not even look directly at the true feelings in my heart.
Since I mistakenly thought that Qin Xueyuan was the reincarnation of the unlucky girl more than ten years ago, I have been forcing myself to "like" her against my will, and I don't care whether my heart can accept my own practice, anyway, I am such a selfish and shameless person, in order to survive, I will do everything, not only use her, but also deceive myself.
I can still vividly recall the appearance of the unlucky girl I saw again and again in Lethe, her disheveled, unkempt, and dirty hair, not only did not make people feel disgusting, but even blindly made me have a strong interest in her, and a strong sense of pity.
Even now, when I recall the infinitely repetitive scenes I once saw, this inexplicable feeling still exists. I naively thought that just with this, coupled with my greedy desire for knowledge, I could not care if I really had feelings for Qin Xueyuan or not.
I Phantom Moon never believed in fate, especially after I came back from the dead, and I deeply experienced the nature of numerology. Therefore, I don't believe in the so-called "fate", I don't believe in "fate" at all.
However, in the end, only I know best in my own heart, I don't know when it began, all my thoughts have been monopolized by a certain girl, every time I think of that marriage contract, I will unconsciously think of this irrelevant girl, and as soon as I think of this girl, I will begin to resist this marriage contract, but in order to be able to live, I have to continue to force myself to fulfill this marriage contract.
As a result, I was trapped in a painful cycle by myself, and this trap lasted for more than ten years.
"Although I still don't know why you had to marry me in the first place, I know that you must have been forced to do so, and I have always known this. So, from the very beginning, I never expected you to look at me squarely. Whoever it is, no matter who you really like in your heart, I can turn a blind eye, but why is it her? ”
Except for the death of the previous owner of Wuyue Mansion and the destruction of Wuyue Tower, this is the first time I have seen Qin Xue Yuan's love out of control. She had always been a person who had no joy or sorrow, and suddenly yelled at me like this without warning, and I had to realize that I might have really hurt her completely.
"Why does it have to be her? I, Qin Xueyuan, where can I compare to her Yue Wanying?! Obviously, she has been useless since she was a child, she can't subdue demons, she won't eliminate harm, but the master just likes her for no reason, I have always obeyed the master's words, and I think that my ability to catch demons will not be much worse than her, even if it is superficial to just talk about appearance, I am not necessarily inferior to her. But why do you only see her in your eyes? ”
Qin Xueyuan said a lot to me in a broken heart, but I didn't hear too much, because I didn't understand, what does it mean to "just like her for no reason"?
I may be too cruel to her, but under normal circumstances, as long as I am a little manly, I should be moved by the sad expression of such a beautiful woman, and no matter how bad it is, at least at this time, I should not hesitate to offer my broad arms to give her more or less comfort.
But I didn't.
I ignored all the possibilities that could ease the relationship between the two of us, omitted all the words that could comfort her, and only asked eagerly: "Xiao Wanying clearly told me that your master doesn't like her at all, why is this matter completely sour when it comes to you?" ”
Qin Xueyuan didn't mind my ruthlessness, she just sneered and shook her head, her expression was very helpless and disdainful.
She said: "It's not that I'm conceited, she's really not as good as me." Look, she's always been so sluggish that she can't even tell the difference between 'like' and 'dislike'. ”
I was a little dissatisfied with her disdain for Xiao Wanying, and frowned and asked coldly, "What do you mean?" ”
That's what it means literally. Maybe everyone is the same as Wanying, thinking that the master hates her the most. But I knew very well in my heart that the master was usually indifferent and fierce to her, just because he wanted to protect her. Wanying is different from us, her heart is too pure to tolerate killing and blood, so even if she is gifted with the way of demon hunting, she has always been reluctant to integrate into our demon slaying team. Of course, the master also acquiesced to her innocence and kindness, which is why he often reprimanded her and excluded her in front of us, the purpose was only to create the illusion that she hated Wanying, so as to eliminate the jealousy of some of us towards her, so as to achieve the purpose of protecting her......"
I seem to have some understanding of what Qin Xuekite meant.
Xiao Wanying's kindness is her biggest weakness, and I have also seen her being bullied with my own eyes, so I can almost empathize with Qin Xueyuan for saying this reason.
Then, maybe the expulsion of Xiao Wanying from the Wuyue Building is also arranged by the deceased landlord......
,。
Qin Xueyuan was still saying something, and I didn't listen to it much, I only knew that it was probably explaining how partial their master was to Xiao Wanying.
I thought to myself, the suicide note that day, the arrangement of driving Xiao Wanying out of Wuyue Tower, seemed to be really destined in the dark. The old landlord was dedicated to protecting Xiao Wanying, and even after her death, she arranged a way out for her - although Xiao Wanying had been blaming herself since just now, saying that if she hadn't left Wuyue Tower, she might be able to save this qiē.
But, on the other hand, if she hadn't left Wuyue Tower, would there be one more of her in the current list of killed?
At this point, I was so frightened by this thought that I broke out in a cold sweat, and in an instant, the clothes on my back were completely soaked.
Also, for a moment, it occurred to me that this deceased "mysterious" landlord could have some kind of unpredictable prophetic ability? In other words, could it be that she had already calculated that Wuyuelou would have such a catastrophe, out of the intention of protecting Xiao Wanying, so she would drive Xiao Wanying out as soon as possible?
This thought seemed a bit mysterious, and I shook my head vigorously to stop my cranky thoughts in time.
When I came back to my senses, I found that Qin Xueyuan was also silent, although the sorrow on her face had receded for the most part, there were still clear tears in the corners of her eyes.
I let out a long sigh, but I couldn't bear it, and I raised my hand to wipe away the tears that remained on her jaw.
The moment my hand touched her face, she still couldn't help but show a look of surprise, and although she tried to hide it, she couldn't escape my eyes.
It is more cruel to give hope and then kill it than to despair her from the beginning.
"The matter of the marriage contract is so decided, you and I are just strangers from now on. I don't deny that the Moon Tower is my fault, but I don't want to take care of you because of it. You have always been so independent and strong, and I believe it will not be long before you can get back on your feet. You can live well without me. Perhaps, without me from the beginning, you could have lived better. I'm sorry, but that's the only three words I can say to you at the moment. ”
She looked at me and listened quietly as I finished these inhuman words, her expression almost unchanged, and there was no surprise at all, she should have guessed that this would happen.
It's good that if you are mentally prepared, you won't get too hurt.
"Let's go." I pointed in the direction of the house, "There's a bunch of people waiting for us there." ”
"Wait a minute."
I turned around and wanted to leave, but just as I took a step, I was grabbed by Qin Xueyuan's hand.
I also have flesh and blood, and no matter how ruthless I am, I will have a bottom line. I don't want to see her sad face again, but why hasn't she given up?
"Don't say it, no one can change what I decide."
I felt that I was caught by her wrist, and at the moment I said this, a little bit of force was increased, but it was only for a moment, and after that, I heard Qin Xueyuan's words coming from behind me, and the love between the words had returned to its usual appearance.
"You misunderstood, I wanted to ask, the person inside...... It's the guy who looks exactly like you, who is he? ”
I sighed sullenly: "If I say that that person is the murderer who killed dozens of people up and down your Wuyue Tower, including your master, would you believe it?" ”
On my wrist, a piece of cold air rubbed over, and I realized that Qin Xueyuan had let go of my hand.
I turned to look at her again, and as expected, I saw her look of astonishment.
"What about you...... ...... with him."
She was obviously so stunned by my words that she began to speak in a bad way.
But I could basically guess what she was trying to say, she was trying to ask, what was my relationship with him, and why did the two of us look so alike?
I shook my head: "I can't explain to you why he looks almost exactly like me, but I have nothing to do with him. ”
"So, he's the Demon King Phantom Moon?"
I admire Qin Xueyuan's calmness that is different from ordinary people, although I don't know if she really believes my words, but when she hears that her enemy is close at hand, she can still calmly ask this sentence, just by virtue of this, she Qin Xueyuan is worthy of my admiration.
"He's called Phantom Moon. But he's not a demon king. ”
When I said that, I almost didn't kill myself! Then why does the bastard have to be called "Phantom Moon"?
I looked at Qin Xueyuan's thoughtful appearance, and asked with some hesitation: "Are you...... Take my word for it? ”
"Faith."
She replied so briskly, with little hesitation, that it made me even more depressed.
"Thank you."
She listened, and smiled faintly at me, a very pure smile, without any displeasure.
I was a little stunned, and when I saw that she was still standing motionless, I couldn't help but ask, "Are you...... Don't you want revenge? ”
"Yes."
"Then why ......"
I stretched out my hand and pointed to the ground, Qin Xueyuan was a smart person, so she naturally understood it immediately, and asked me with a smile: "Why didn't you take any action?" ”
I nodded.
Qin Xueyuan looked at me, then looked in the direction of the room behind me, and said: "You have long known that he is the murderer who destroyed my Wuyue Tower, but when the gambling contract between us was still in effect, you did not take his life, I believe that you must have your reasons or helplessness." ”
I suddenly felt a little sorry for her.
No matter how resolute you Qin Xueyuan is, at this moment, she is just a stupid girl.
"As I said, I can unilaterally continue to fulfill that bet as long as you want......"
"No, I don't." Qin Xueyuan refused very simply, leaving me no room for refutation at all, "I believe your words, so I won't delve into the relationship between you and him." But since you've decided to spare him for the time being, I'll listen to you. Since you dared to make an oath to me that you could avenge me, then I believe that as long as you are willing, you can send him on your way at any time, so I am not in a hurry to do so for a while. And ......"
When she said this, she was a little embarrassed and stopped, looking at me, looking very aggrieved.
"And what?"
Qin Xueyuan turned her back to me before she could continue her broken words: "When you and Wanying were out, I heard about the relationship between him and Wanying...... So, I know how important he is to Wanying. And being gentle with you is also extraordinary, even if it is for her, you won't do it lightly, will you? ”
Sometimes, a person is too smart, and he is often stabbed by his own edge, just like Qin Xueyuan at this time.
,。
I have not expressed any opinion on Qin Xueyuan's opinion, I do not deny it, and of course I do not admit it.
Qin Xueyuan didn't seem to have waited for my answer from the beginning, and after saying this, she turned around and showed a faint wry smile at me, went straight around me, and went back to the house.
The moment she rubbed shoulders with me, I met her eyes for a moment, and in an instant, a thought popped up in my mind: I'm really useless.
I received the look she gave me - it was obviously her who was hurt, and it was clear that I was the one who had committed an unforgivable sin, but there was a slight comfort in her eyes.
I'm not God, I'm not strong enough to do something bad and have no remorse. But I thought to myself that in front of her Qin Xueyuan, I had tried my best to be as happy and angry as possible, but in the end, I tried my best to hide the guilt, but I still fell short before her intelligence!
Suddenly, her laughter made me feel ashamed.
Like a criminal who was caught red-handed when committing a crime, I followed her with my head down and fearful, and entered the house trembling slightly.
Mochen is gone, I don't know where he went, only Xiao Wanying and the imposter are left in the house. The table was empty, but the chairs were still in their place, and the two of them sat facing each other, speechless.
