Chapter 57 We're even, Fu Yunlu
"Then die with me."
When Fu Yunlu said this, he seemed to care about nothing anymore. He did not lose everything, but his despair was even greater than if he had lost everything.
Liang Guanyue looked down at the gun pointed at him, but before he could say anything, the bullet pierced his shoulder.
"...Damn it." Liang Guanyue laughed in anger, gritting her teeth to stifle a groan of pain. She glared at Fu Yunlu fiercely and said coldly, "Fu Yunlu, are you fucking crazy?"
Fu Yunlu turned the gun handle expressionlessly and fired a shot at his own shoulder. Liang Guanyue was stunned, as if she didn't understand what was wrong with Fu Yunlu.
He put down his gun, stroked Liang Guanyue's cheek with his uninjured hand, curled his lips, and whispered, "My dear, does it hurt?"
Liang Guanyue took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and cursed inwardly. Fu Yunlu suddenly pinched his cheeks, forcing him to look at her. He leaned over and kissed the corner of Liang Guanyue's lips, smiling, "It didn't hurt as much as the first time you entered my reproductive system. Back then, I really wanted to kill you," he murmured, "but I couldn't bear to do it."
Liang Guanyue opened his eyes, met Fu Yunlu's gaze, and frowned, "Do you really want to kill me?"
"You mean now?"
"What else?"
"...Of course," Fu Yunlu said. "You always have many ways to escape. First, I'll just shoot you in the shoulder. Does it hurt, huh?"
Liang Guanyue looked at Fu Yunlu's bloodshot eyes and suddenly asked, "You want to drive the car into the sea, right?"
"Yes, baby." He touched the corner of Liang Guanyue's eyes and said gently, "It would be better if you could continue to lie to me."
"..." Continue to lie to him? Then what's the point of doing all this? Liang Guanyue tutted in annoyance and said, "Stop the car first, I have something to tell you."
"It's too late to lie to me now." Fu Yunlu lowered her head and licked the blood from his wound. She frowned as if heartbroken, and then comforted him, "It's okay, it won't hurt soon."
Liang Guanyue used his good shoulder to ram Fu Yunlu's wound. Fu Yunlu's face turned pale and he was easily knocked back against the chair. A few strands of hair fell off his forehead. He gasped and covered the gunshot wound. After a long pause, he whispered, "Liang Guanyue, you still have an option. That is to kill me here."
Liang Guanyue glared at him fiercely, then calmed down before saying, "Fu Yunlu, do you think the only evidence Ji Shun left behind was that video of Fu Yunliang?"
"Are you trying to say that you didn't kill me?" Fu Yunlu laughed sarcastically and said in a hoarse voice, "Should I still thank you?"
Liang Guanyue was rarely angry and said, "Didn't I give you a chance?!" He ignored the pain and pinched Fu Yunlu's neck with both hands, tightening his grip. "Fu Yunlu, I've given you many chances, but you never let go."
Fu Yunlu tilted her neck and lowered her eyes to look at him, giggling. Due to lack of oxygen, she spoke intermittently: "Liang... Guan Yue... I love you... You actually want me to let go... of the person I love..."
He unknowingly started to cry again as he spoke, his voice trembling as he continued, "...seeing me giving in step by step for you...isn't it fun?"
Liang Guanyue's anger gradually subsided in the face of his sad eyes. He let go of his hand, lowered his head and leaned on Fu Yunlu's shoulder, forcing himself to calm down slowly - Fu Yunlu really wanted to die with him, no matter what, he had to calm him down first.
He thought for a moment, then held Fu Yunlu's hand and whispered, "...It's not fun."
What lie are you going to tell this time? Fu Yunlu looked at the top of Liang Guanyue's head. What nice words do you want to say to make me let you go?
Liang Guanyue said, "It hurts, brother." He raised his head and kissed the tears on Fu Yunlu's cheek, whispering coquettishly, "You said you would never hurt me... You lied to me."
"..." Fu Yunlu recalled the past times when listening to Liang Guanyue's accusations. He closed his eyes in embarrassment, not wanting Liang Guanyue to see his panic, but the tears that fell became more and more uncontrollable.
"Fu Yunlu, I really don't love you." Liang Guanyue touched his lips, tasted his bitter tears, and told him: "But I was soft-hearted towards you so many times, and gave you so many chances to leave me... You are special." He whispered, "You are my first Alpha, don't you understand?"
Fu Yunlu couldn't help but tremble at Liang Guanyue's words. He screamed in pain and pushed Liang Guanyue away with some resistance and fear. He begged for mercy from this ruthless and cunning Alpha: "Liang Guanyue, how long are you going to lie to me? I beg you, please forgive me." He covered his face and trembled with collapse, "Please forgive me, please forgive me..."
Don't deprive him of his last ruthless power.
Liang Guanyue looked at him for a while, and for some reason he suddenly felt at a loss. He opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time. Finally, he said only one sentence to Fu Yunlu: "I didn't lie to you about what I said just now, Fu Yunlu."
“…”
"Fu Yunlu, you know it's not easy for me to live until now." Liang Guanyue gave up the sweet words he had prepared long ago. He told Fu Yunlu frankly, "I have to be responsible for my life. I don't want to die."
No matter from which perspective, he should be the one begging for mercy, but now Fu Yunlu is the one begging him to let her go.
This was a scene that Liang Guanyue could neither understand nor process.
He didn't even know why he actually believed that Fu Yunlu would let him go because of this sentence.
"I don't want to" - Liang Guanyue said "I don't want to" to Fu Yunlu many times, such as he didn't want to go to bed early, didn't want to drink hot water, didn't want to wear a suit, didn't want to have his glands touched, didn't want to be fucked - Fu Yunlu would eventually raise his hands helplessly in surrender and say, "It's up to you then."
Liang Guanyue couldn't deny that Fu Yunlu often fulfilled some things that he had not experienced since his mother's death, such as the care and tenderness of his family.
He gave in without any bottom line until there was no room for retreat, so now Fu Yunlu had no choice but to beg for mercy from him - don't let yourself become a joke before you die.
Liang Guanyue felt that Fu Yunlu was a very pitiful person. Even though he had both parents and a distinguished family background, and was a popular candidate for the crown prince at the age of thirty, Fu Yunlu was as pitiful as the wool felt cat in his home.
Some are unattainable, some are desired, some are self-deceiving, and some are powerless to come true.
Maybe when Fu Yunlu occasionally felt confused or lonely, she could only tell herself to climb up, climb up regardless of everything, and become a creation that everyone was satisfied with - until she met herself.
Liang Guanyue didn't understand why he had to tell all the truth to anger him. If he told some nice lies, maybe Fu Yunlu wouldn't want to shoot him or die together with him.
Liang Guanyue whispered, "Fu Yunlu, let's let each other go."
“…”
"Didn't you say you wanted to help my hometown when you had the chance?" Liang Guanyue said, "District 53 is a great opportunity, brother. You'll do it, right?"
Liang Guanyue actually didn’t care what would happen to District 53. He just thought that Fu Yunlu needed a goal to survive.
After all, Fu Yunlu has never found herself in the past thirty years.
He was like a dizzy moth, thinking that the candlelight at night was the bright sun he longed for.
Liang Guanyue grew up in a dirty and messy environment. He was bullied by others and did many things that hurt others. He almost made a living by deceiving others, but he never deceived himself - in this world, there will never be anyone who understands himself more clearly than himself.
This is how it should be, and this is how it should be for everyone.
But Fu Yunlu got lost on this road.
Therefore, we crave love from others more than loving ourselves.
Liang Guanyue held Fu Yunlu's trembling hand and was silent for a long time before slowly speaking: "We are even, Fu Yunlu."
"From now on, you should have your own future, and so should I." He pursed his lips and said softly, "...Brother."
