Chapter 818: I am a Dirty Being
"n.o.body liked him in the Jun family. Even the Emperor calls his existence a dirty one."
"Young Yexuan inherited Yin Changge"s beauty and he turned out to be a capable person. Since his status was considered to be lower than a servant"s, some people started to calculate against him."
"One time, his fourth uncle tried to gather influence and personally delivered young Yexuan into the bed of a pedophile."
"Yexuan did all he could to protect his innocence but only got away by killing the man. Back then, Jun Tianlin and that man"s family were in negotiations when Yin Lei sent people to take him away."
"I thought Yexuan"s nightmare of a life would end once he settled down in the Country of Summer. Who knew that when he returned home a few years later, the light in his eyes got dimmer and his maturity outgrew his physical age."
"Years later, the group of people he kept hidden finally emerged and caused a b.l.o.o.d.y storm in that cruel and ruthless Jun family."
"In the end, all those who stood in his way or once humiliated him were killed. He became the leader of the family. All the gossip surrounding his birth and background finally started to disappear."
"Even later, when the b.l.o.o.d.y Night in the Capital City happened, his name as third young master Jun became a frightful a.s.sociation. Ever since then, he became known as the third young master Jun and n.o.body dared to talk behind his back anymore."
By the time Qi Yusen was done with his story, Qiao Qing"s face was wet with tears.
Qi Yusen wiped the tears off her face, "I knew this would happen if I told you the truth. But you shouldn"t be too sad. The good thing is, everything that"s happened in his life has made him stronger. He is now a very capable man who can deal with everything himself."
Qiao Qing wasn"t able to find any words and could only cry.
Because of the scattered information she gathered before, she had guessed that Jun Yexuan grew up in a family that lacked love. She never expected his misfortune to be this severe.
Everything Qi Yusen said made her find it hard to breathe.
"Brother…" Qiao Qing wanted to say something but she noticed someone"s sleeve near the door. Her gaze glossed over.
That silhouette seemed to have sensed Qiao Qing"s attention and ran away as fast as possible.
"Jun Yexuan!" Qiao Qing wiped her face and chased after him.
Jun Yexuan dashed aimlessly in the darkness. He ran like the person chasing after him wasn"t the love of his life, but a horrible monster.
He seemed to have been dragged back to those lightless days. All his brain could process was how cruel everything felt.
All sorts of atrocious faces and disgusting stares flashed across his brain. His memories were trying to wreck him.
She found out about everything. Was she going to find him detestable now? He didn"t dare to think.
Qiao Qing"s heart ached more and more as the silhouette ran faster and more hectically.
In the end, near a small man-made mountain, Qiao Qing caught up and hugged Jun Yexuan tightly.
Qiao Qing felt how tense his body was, so she circled around until she was in front of him and cupped his face.
"Jun Yexuan, why are you running away? You"re so fast I almost couldn"t catch up."
In the darkness, Qiao Qing couldn"t see Jun Yexuan"s face clearly. When her hand felt the dampness on his face, however, her heart dropped.
Jun Yexuan lost all his energy and collapsed on the ground. Qiao Qing lowered her body in order to hug him tight. Cautiously, she spoke as if trying to comfort a fragile treasure.
"I"m sorry. I never should"ve asked about your past. Can you not be angry with me?"
After a long silence, a hoa.r.s.e voice responded, "I am a monster according to my aunts and uncles. I"m the son of a rapist. My own mother wished for my death. I am a dirty being."
Qiao Qing"s pupils constricted as her eyes widened.
