"I won't leave your side, I just want to be alone for a while."
When did she start feeling suffocated and unable to breathe when she was next to Ji Muhan?
"Hanhan, you know I like you so much, how could I want to run away from you?"
"I've said it before, I'll give you anything you want, even my life. I can give you anything, but there's one thing I can't promise you!"
"Hanhan, what exactly do you want from me? I've already said, I'm just fed up with this kind of life. Can you let me have some peace and quiet for a while?"
His eyes were deep and tender, a passion and madness that Mo Xiaoqing had never seen before.
There's a feeling that it's not just her who's changed these days...
Ji Muhan no longer seemed to be the person she initially knew; that crazed look in his eyes suggested he was gradually turning to the dark side…
Or perhaps, she never truly understood Ji Muhan from the very beginning…
In the past, she wouldn't have minded at all, but now she's so annoyed that everything seems irritating.
Ji Muhan's crazed gaze made her feel even more suffocated.
"Get away from me."
Mo Xiaoqing reached out to push him, but couldn't.
Ji Muhan stared intently at her unbelievably beautiful baby face, "Momo, wouldn't it be better if you stayed by my side?"
Mo Xiaoqing remained silent. "Ji Muhan, I'm giving you one last chance. Are you hiding something from me? Is there something you haven't told me?"
"..."
"Tell me if there's any news about my brother?"
Ji Muhan didn't say anything, but stubbornly held onto her hand, not letting her go.
"Say it!"
"You're not going to tell me, are you?"
"Okay, then I'll go ask Third Brother myself!"
Ji Muhan reacted even more strongly this time, clearly increasing the force with which she gripped Mo Xiaoqing's wrist.
Mo Xiaoqing felt like he was about to break her hand, but at this moment, neither Mo Xiaoqing nor Ji Muhan...
We can't care about any of that now!
Mo Xiaoqing's heart skipped a beat, and she choked back sobs, "Brother...is he...gone?"
Ji Muhan paused for a moment, then said, "...No, the search team hasn't received any news about your brother yet. You should look on the bright side; no news is good news in itself!"
Mo Xiaoqing's eyes were blurry with tears, and she couldn't suppress her bitter feelings. She stared straight at Ji Muhan in front of her, her voice filled with complicated sobs.
"Hanhan, you said that no matter how big or small the matter is, you would always answer truthfully if I asked you!"
"Don't lie to me. If it's a lie, I'd rather not hear it. If you're lying to me, I'll never see you again in my life."
Mo Xiaoqing's last sentence was spoken with particular determination.
Ji Muhan's forehead veins were bulging with anger, but he also knew in his heart that he could no longer fool Mo Xiaoqing!
"...Yesterday morning, a body was found on the beach. Because of the long time that had passed, the face and body had been decomposed by seawater, but we were still able to verify the identity from some details."
Even though he didn't continue speaking, Mo Xiaoqing already knew what he was going to say.
"It's...my brother, right?"
Mo Xiaoqing's tears flowed uncontrollably.
She seemed to have used all her strength to say those words, because she was so distressed and suppressing her emotions; her voice was terribly hoarse.
Ji Muhan took a step forward and reached out her hand to comfort her.
But Mo Xiaoqing opened it without hesitation, "Why didn't you tell me about what happened yesterday morning?"
What could he say?
Should we tell her that her brother is dead? Or should we tell her not to wait any longer, because her brother will never come back?
He can be cruel to everyone, but he can't be cruel to anyone else...
Mo Xiaoqing burst into tears and was held in Ji Muhan's arms, but she still felt as if she were in an ice cellar, her whole body was ice cold.
She murmured two words, "Brother..."
Ji Muhan felt as if her heart was being torn apart. Seeing the person in her arms almost crying herself to death, she felt a surge of resentment, wishing she could find all those executioners and sever their tendons.
Even he couldn't bear to let anyone inside shed a single tear. But because of this incident, Mo Xiaoqing has cried countless times.
I also know that she was putting on such a brave face a while ago because she still held onto a sliver of hope, thinking that as long as Mo Yanyu's body hadn't been found, his chances of survival would be even greater.
Ji Muhan's eyes were filled with a coldness, as if she had crawled out of hell. "Momo, don't worry, I haven't let any of those who hurt your brother get away with it. They're all locked up in the police station!"
What he didn't tell Mo Xiaoqing was that he had used some underhanded tactics. Those people could have been executed by now, but he managed to get them sent to a mental hospital instead.
You can imagine how unbearable it must be for a normal person to be put in a mental hospital!
die?
Sometimes death is a relief. Will he let those who hurt Momo and made her sad get away with it so quickly?
No!
Of course he can't!
He has never been an upright person, nor has he ever been a soft-hearted person!
From a young age, he knew when to be upright and honest, and when to... torture others mercilessly!
