Du Linglan didn"t speak. She waited, waiting for Han Luoting to said something to make her feel more pain. Since she chose to help Long Hu, she had to pay the same price; it was the same as she fell in love with him, she had to pay the same price of heartbreak and even heartache.
"Yesterday for an unknown man, today for Fifth Miss, who are you for not listening to my commands, then make a claim?" His breath like a demon coldly came in front of her.
His five slender fingers were like the world"s strongest prison chains, shackled her lower jaw, and made her closed her eyes, facing his ink eyes filled with rage. She could only helplessly let his raging flames burned her until nothing was left.
This kind of him, she also felt a trace of fear, but she was very clear about what kind of man she was in love with, so she boldly confronted his ink eyes, and no longer closed her eyes.
How many years did she not dare to look straight into his eyes like this? It seemed that the day had begun since that year when she suddenly realized that she had fallen in love with him.
She was afraid that he would read her emotions through her eyes, so she chose to always hang her head and face him with the top of her head.
Han Luoting looked into her clear, black and white, watery eyes. That pair of eyes filled with emotion, made him almost sink into it unable to extricate himself.
For the first time in his life, he found that he couldn"t face such a pair of eyes calmly. He was annoyed and closed his eyes. His fingertips were more like being burnt by the flames. He couldn"t help but released his hand and stepped back a few steps.
The heart in his chest was beating like it was not his own. It was more like the frequency that would occur after intense exercise. It was too abnormal and under such circ.u.mstances, he was nervous.
"Fifth Miss is already an adult. She has her will. She has her wishes. You can"t always ignore her wishes and want her to always act according to your wishes." She used to be too obedient in the past because she was not tough enough to face her own heartlessness.
She wanted to break that sentiment, the first thing was no longer obey him. She had to have her own opinion, she had to have her own judgment, and this time she felt that the best for Long Hu was to let Long Hu go to j.a.pan alone.
"Do you know how many people want to kidnap fifth miss to threaten Longjia?" He couldn"t understand the disorder in his heart but hearing her even more willful words, made Han Luoting had no choice but to throw the mess in his heart aside. First, faced with what he thought was more important in front of him. "If there is any accident to Fifth Miss, can you afford it?"
Could she afford it?
This sentence was like the sharpest arrow mercilessly inserted into Du Linglan"s already wounded heart. She could feel her heart was grieving and weeping in blood.
"I can"t afford it." The whispered words slowly floated out of her mouth. "But if Fifth Miss has any accidents, I will repay with my own life." Even in his eyes, her life was not as important as Long Hu.
This was the life of the shadow, but also the wound of the shadow.
Her voice was so weak, so ethereal as if the next moment she would become as light as a feather and then turned into a fairy and disappeared before his eyes.
A burst of panic-stricken, a burst of powerlessness made Han Luoting almost at a loss.
She shouldn"t be like this, she should listen to him and not disobey him.
As long as he gave the order, she completed for him, never be like this, giving him such an ethereal feeling.
A kind of feeling that he couldn"t grasp from her.
And he"d never, never want her to pay back with her life. If there was such a day, he was willing to replace her with his life.
However, he couldn"t say such a thing.
"So is that enough?" The soft, weak voice was once again floated out.
Han Luoting was shocked staring at Du Linglan"s face that seemed to have but not had a faint, shallow, smiling expression. He didn"t know why that plastered shallow smile made his heart hurt.
Her one simply just didn"t care about her own life appearance made him feel the fear he had never had before.
Not enough, by far not enough!
How could he really make her pay with her life? How could he possibly let this kind of thing happen? He was determined not to let such things happen, never!
But what right should be done?
"Linglan!" The rapid footsteps came from outside accompanied by the worried call of Long Hu.
The blue veins popped up from the side of Han Luoting"s forehead.
Especially, Yang Mofei came in following Long Hu.
The tall figure stood beside Du Linglan like a guardian spirit and the picture stung Han Luoting"s eyes deeply.
"Did you think... think I"d hurt her?" Incredulously staring at his most trusted xiongdi and the person who had always been protected in his chest. Han Luoting really couldn"t believe what he saw.
(T/N: xiongdi - younger brother)
How could he lose his mind for the sake of a woman?
Yang Mofei didn"t want to get involved in their affairs, because this was only something that Han Luoting and Du Linglan could solve by themselves. As outsiders, they really shouldn"t say much or did more.
However, last night Han Luoting personally recognized that the existence of Du Linglan was just like a "meimei" to him, but today Yang Mofei saw the scar on Du Linglan"s wrist caused by Han Luoting as well as the spot on her lower jaw that couldn"t be mistaken to distinguish the finger marks.
He didn"t want to spend more time with a man who had lost his mind. Yang Mofei skillfully held the already unable to response Du Linglan and left the greenhouse.
"Wait a minute, where are you going to take her?" Han Luoting couldn"t help but block in front of them and stop them from leaving.
