Chapter 310: Take off the shackles
"You're thinking that nothing will change in the world without you, and no one will even be sad for you, maybe - everyone will be happier without you!"
Yun Ying's words were fluent and clearβas if he had practiced them a thousand times.
ββ¦β¦ How do you know? β
Rogge couldn't describe his mood at the moment, is this what it's like to be seen through, why is there a secret pleasure in his heart while his body trembles?
"Because that's what I thought about too."
Cloud Shadow's thoughts drifted back to a long time ago, when she was on the edge of life and death, she would have the same thoughts as Rogge, in her previous life, she thought that she had been abandoned by the whole world a long time ago!
ββ¦β¦ Hahahaha, Cloud Shadow, you should agree with me - we are really very similar, so similar that even our minds are as dark! β
Rogge spoke with a glittering light in his eyes, and the cloud shadow was not the strongest of the people he knew, but it was the most resonant with himβa subtle feeling that always made him want to stop.
"No, Rogge, I'm not like you......"
"How is it different, you have also experienced the fear of death, haven't you?"
Rogge hurriedly interrupted Yunying's rebuttal and said loudly: "I am a wise and decisive benevolent lord in the eyes of the people of Aniah, an iron-blooded tyrant in the eyes of subordinate ministers, and a ruthless and unrighteous devil in the eyes of countless enemies - Yunying, I only want to be Rogge in your eyes, just Rogge!" β
"I-don't understand......"
Yunying really didn't know what Rogge was trying to express when he was so emotional.
"I'm just an ordinary guy named Rogge in your eyes, right? I'm just as happy and sad as everyone else, right? You can understand me - you can understand me even after knowing how cruel I am, right? β
Right...... Right? Yun Ying understoodβthe guilt of killing his mother and wife had taken this seemingly ruthless king to the limit!
"Rogge...... I would be too false to say that you are right in everything you did, but your mother chose to end her life of her own free will, and I am afraid that she is tired of this palace that eats people and does not spit out bones, and as for others, the pleasure and comfort that you give you will not be the capital to hurt you. β
"So if you were me, I would do the same?"
ββ¦β¦ Yes, it has nothing to do with right or wrong, it's just the instinct of human survival! β
In Yunying's opinion, no matter how close people are, they have not deprived her of the right to live, and she is not afraid of death. But she will do her best to live, because only by living can she find hope in despair!
"Phewβis there finally anyone like me? Cloud Shadow, is it a sin for us to do this? Love and the three women had smiled so much at me before...... On the cloudy night, I always thought that if it was me, everyone and I would be free. β
Rogge raised his head and covered his eyes with his right hand - would this man's heart cry too?
"Bastard! They're trying to harm you, I don't understand where the sensible and confident King Ania has gone, are you secretly crying like a woman every night?! β
Cloud Shadow is most accustomed to seeing people regret the past, what can they do if they regret it-it's already already.
"Heh, former Rogge? The Roger who made you drink poisoned tea and threatened you - would you like it? β
Rogge suddenly put down his hand and looked straight at Yunying, all lies were hidden in these black eyes.
ββ¦β¦ I don't like it, I might even say I hate meeting you-"
As Cloud Shadow spoke, Rogge's eyes became darker and darker.
"But - the people of Ania like you!"
"Ania - the people?"
"Yes, you have contributed to the strength of the Ania Empire. They admired you and adored you, and remembered that many of the students at the opening ceremony of the Magic Branch were so excited to see you, and there were things about the aliens - if they didn't trust you, they wouldn't have accepted more and more aliens on the streets of Nolan City so easily. β
ββ¦β¦ But wisdom and kindness are only the illusions I have given to the common people. You know my ......"
Usually, the wiser a person is, the more head-wrenching it is, so Yun Ying unceremoniously interrupted Rogge's defense: "Even if what you say is right, don't you want to change?" β
ββ¦β¦ Change? β
Rogge's eyes flashed silently.
"Yes, change! Become the perfect king in the hearts of the people, you can be iron-willed. It can also be ruthless - but those are the means and weapons you use to protect the Ania Empire! β
ββ¦β¦ Guarding Ania? β
The corners of Rogge's mouth finally relaxed irrepressibly: "I thought I didn't have anything...... Haha, I still have Aniah! β
When the old shackles were lifted, the young emperor of Ania finally took off his gloomy shell and truly became dazzling!
"Cloud Shadow, will you see my changes too?"
"Huh?"
Cloud Shadow's calm smile stayed at the corner of his mouth.
"I said I'd change for you, promise me - will you stay in Nolan City after graduation? I need you! β
God, a rich and handsome man suddenly said to you gently, "I need you". Yun Ying felt that his heart was beating twice...... She suddenly fell into boundless self-blame, it was a physiological reaction, an absolutely normal physiological reaction!
"Off. Let's talk about this later, and declare in advance that I haven't forgotten the past, and I'm a person who holds a grudge. β
"Haha, holding a grudge? I like it -- at least that means you won't forget me! β
Rogge's determined smile made Yunying defeated, and he still pretended not to understand anything - anyway, he wouldn't have stayed in Nolan City for another minute if he killed her after graduation. Now all she has to do is change the subject.
"That-Rog, let's talk about why you were able to catch Love after you were wounded."
For Cloud Shadow's blunt evasion methods, Rogge smiled and did not pursue it. Because he fully understood what kind of feelings he had for the former, in fact, the answer was already obvious to the emperor who had eaten pork and seen pigs run, but the shadow in his heart made him dare not face it - you must know that for a long time in the past, Rogge could not even tolerate the appearance of a woman within three meters of him.
"Yunying, I won't let go of a person who understands me like you, through the conversation just now, I am more sure that we are the same kind of people, you will only play the greatest value when you are by my side, I like you - I will give you plenty of time to think about it, but you can only have one answer!"
I like you...... I like you...... I like you...... Yunying was completely stunned by the bursts of echoes of Rogge's sudden confession in his mind, what does it mean that he likes her? How could he be so sure? When the hell did he get his senses?!
