“I said no shooting, and that means no.” Feng Guang withdrew his hand and said coldly to Zheng Gao, “You can try shooting, but I guarantee the Xia family won’t let you off the hook when you get back.”
Zheng Gao's face turned pale. He knew very well what the name "Xia Family" represented. He lowered his hands and took a step back with a bad expression.
“Qi Wei…” Feng Guang looked at the man smiling at her not far away and said in a daze, “You still came.”
Qi Wei smiled, her clear eyes sparkling with purity. "Is Fengguang waiting for me to come?"
Yes, she was waiting for her to come over.
"Qi Wei, I suddenly realized that there's one thing I've never asked you before..."
Qi Wei slowly approached her. "What is it?"
"I...I want to ask you, if I asked you to come with me to the outside world, would you be willing?"
He paused, "What did Feng Guang mean by that?"
“I hate the feeling of being locked up, but Qi Wei… I can’t deny that I do like you. If I had to choose between freedom and you, I would choose the former, but…” She took a deep breath and slowly said, “Standing here, I suddenly realized that freedom and you are not mutually exclusive. You want to trap me in your world, but I can also try to bring you into my world.”
The root cause of everything that happened during this period was simply that their perceptions were different. She wouldn't give up her freedom for him, and he wouldn't give up his obsession with keeping her. But it wasn't that they couldn't be together, as long as one of them was willing to compromise.
Yes, she still remembered what kind of mental patient Qi Wei was. He had killed people and was a demon in the eyes of others. He had even done many things to her that she found unbearable.
But she also remembered that he was lonely and isolated. He had been imprisoned here since childhood, and he could only yearn for what he wanted like a child. No one had ever told him how to get along with the people he liked.
But he was studying. In the days they spent together, she could sense that he was learning knowledge he had never encountered before through all the books. He just lacked a guide. If there was no one else around him... he would never learn how to express these precious emotions.
She often wondered if Qi Wei really liked her. Was his feelings for her just pure desire, or was it based on emotional attraction? She was always struggling with this question, as if she had walked into a dead end. But now, she suddenly understood. He didn't know what liking someone meant, and neither did she, but she understood it a little better than him.
Therefore, she had the idea of trying to accept everything about him.
His attitude towards her was different from his attitude towards others, and at least she could comfort herself that perhaps... she was always different in his heart, and this feeling seemed to be no different from the word "like".
Feng Guang reached out her hand, "Qi Wei, would you like to go to the outside world with me?"
Even if he meets more people and might give up on her and fall for someone else, she's willing to take the gamble.
"I haven't been to the outside world for a long time..." Qi Wei smiled, her eyes filled with the soft moonlight, "If the scenery could stay by my side... I would be willing."
Even if the outside world is more like hell than this place, he would still be willing.
Suddenly a gunshot rang out, and a bloodlust flashed in Feng Guang's eyes. Qi Wei's chest was stained red with blood, but he seemed unaware. He took her hand and even smiled, "Feng Guang... take me away with you."
Finally, he lost his balance and fell forward.
Feng Guang instinctively tried to hug him, but he was too tall for her. She could only slowly kneel down to prevent him from collapsing on the cold sand. After what seemed like an eternity, her senses returned, and her cold, trembling hands touched his face. Her voice trembled as she whispered, "Qi Wei... you can't die..."
Not far away, Nangong Zhe arrived with a gun.
