Thinking about it carefully, no one in this world, besides his brother, would treat him so well.
"Does making me owe you such a huge favor make you very happy?"
Fu Ying, having eaten and drunk her fill, was sitting at the cave entrance basking in the sun, swinging her slender legs. She turned her head and asked with a smile, "Why do you ask that? Do we still need to distinguish between you and me now?"
"No distinction between you and me? Fu Ying, what are you talking about?" Ye Sijue narrowed his eyes, and some fragmented memories began to surface in his mind.
"Ye Sijue, I like you, I really like you so much."
"Ye Sijue, please don't leave me again, please don't send me away again, okay?"
"We will be together forever and ever."
He saw the woman's graceful figure, the bite marks on her fair skin illuminated by the firelight, and her intertwined bodies seeking warmth in the dark cave, like wild beasts lost in the darkness, unable to resist possessing everything about her.
Last night... they were entangled together like that!
"What exactly did you do!" Ye Sijue rushed to her in disbelief, ignoring the pain of his wounds and the woman's furrowed brows, and questioned her through gritted teeth.
"Ye Sijue, yesterday, last night..." Fu Ying was stunned by his sudden outburst of anger. As it was the first time, she didn't know how to explain the situation.
But last night, it was clearly him who initiated it.
"Last night was..."
"Shut up!" Ye Sijue interrupted her angrily. He couldn't accept that he had actually had a relationship with Fu Ying. "Fu Ying, are you really that shameless? Do you think so little of yourself?"
Fu Ying stared at him in disbelief, her eyes filled with a sense of shattering, like broken glass.
Her pretty face betrayed disbelief: "You think I'm the one seducing you?"
"Isn't that so!" Ye Sijue's long fingers gripped Fu Ying's chin tightly, his deep eyes concealing a sinister and cruel intent.
"Isn't this the person you follow behind every day? Have you forgotten!"
His deep eyes cut into Fuying's heart like a blade, and in that instant, Fuying seemed to hear the sound of her heart breaking.
She fought back tears and shoved Ye Sijue away with a slap, her voice seemingly forced out through clenched teeth: "Ye Sijue, I never imagined you would be this kind of person. I must have been blind!"
In the past, no matter how hurtful the words Ye Sijue said to her or how many times he rejected her, she could always mend her broken heart and continue to pretend to be carefree and stay by his side. But this time, it's really different.
She dropped all pretense and gave herself completely to Ye Sijue, but she never expected that this man she had admired and liked for so long would trample her self-esteem into the ground.
What is this? Is it her being a jerk?
She couldn't pretend to be stupid anymore; she couldn't keep up the act any longer!
"Ye Sijue! I misjudged you, I was wrong!"
Fu Ying picked up the clothes from the ground, turned around, and left the cave without looking back.
The moment she turned away, tears streamed down her face like broken beads, but she forced herself to suppress her resentment and anger, refusing to let out a sound.
Cry, cry!
She cried because she had met the wrong person; why did she have to meet such a cold-blooded and heartless person!
She was wrong. From the moment she learned what kind of person Ye Sijue really was, she shouldn't have fallen for him!
As Ye Sijue watched her resolute back, a strange pain inexplicably welled up in his heart.
Immediately, the toxins that were about to take deep root in my chest cavity spread rapidly throughout my body, and even my fingers felt pain.
The unprecedented emptiness in his heart made him feel lost and helpless, and even his eyes became vacant.
Ye Sijue was in so much pain that he could hardly breathe. He clenched one hand tightly over his heart, his eyes filled with disbelief.
How could that be...?
It's just a woman leaving him, so why does he feel heartache?!
How could this be?!
In that instant, the scene in my mind returned to the first time I met Fuying.
At that time, she was just a sixteen-year-old child. Like Ye Sijue, she was also an orphan. After being kicked out of the orphanage, she had been living a life of begging.
She was pretty and kind, and every time she went out begging, some rich ladies would give her a lot of charity. But she was also very weak and didn't know how to protect herself. Often, the money she earned after a hard day of begging would be stolen at night.
That day, Ye Sijue happened to be passing through the alley when several thugs not only tried to rob her of her money, but also attempted to defile this underage girl.
Ye Sijue showed no mercy. He snatched back the little girl's purse and told her to lower her head and not look, no matter what she heard.
Then, he kicked those people over, beat them so badly they couldn't take care of themselves, and threw them into the trash can.
Even Ye Sijue himself didn't know that when outsiders described him as nothing more than a cold-blooded killing machine, he would suddenly feel a pang of pity and take action amidst the girl's screams.
After dealing with those thugs, Ye Sijue slowly walked to her side and looked down at her.
A sixteen-year-old girl had a piece of her skirt torn off on the right, revealing her slender, white thigh. She seemed very uncomfortable and kept trying to pull down more fabric to cover the missing piece.
Ye Sijue frowned, and as if possessed, took off his coat and threw it at the little girl. "Put it on."
"Thank you." The girl nodded, tears welling in her eyes.
Ye Sijue was not good at communicating with people, and he didn't know how to comfort a girl, so he felt inexplicably annoyed.
"They won't bother you anymore."
After saying that, he turned and left.
"Brother." The little girl struggled to her feet and grabbed his sleeve. "Can I know your name?"
Ye Sijue instinctively hid the blood-stained knife in his hand. "Aren't you afraid of me?"
The little girl wiped away her tears and forced a smile: "Why should I be afraid of you, brother? You're a good person."
Her smile seemed to have a fatal infectious power, so much so that the sky, which had just been gloomy and rainy, suddenly brightened up.
It was then that Ye Sijue realized that, besides his brother, there was someone else in the world who could show him such a pure smile.
"Night Lord".
That was the first and only time he told anyone his real name.
From that time on, Fuying liked to follow him around all day, smiling at him tirelessly.
She was like his little tail, and before he knew it, she was inseparable from him.
