Chapter 168 Original Sin



Nong Ying and Bai Lei stood facing each other, but the atmosphere from before had been broken. Each of them had their own thoughts and remained silent without saying a word.

In the end, it was Nong Ying who took the initiative to reach out and hold Bai Lei's hand, saying with hope in her eyes: "Please don't leave..."

Bai Lei raised his eyes and looked at her.

The usual familiar cold face now carried a hint of tenderness and love.

This made him very uncomfortable.

He is also a normal male. They have been together day and night for many years. How could he not like her?

The person I've always had a crush on turns out to be the one who likes me.

If he had known this before, he would have been ecstatic.

However, after learning that his family had suffered and only his only sister was left, he couldn't help but want to blame Nong Ying whenever he thought that it was Nong Ying who trapped him.

Blame Nong Ying for being selfish, blame myself for being weak...

Bai Lei brushed her hand away, lowered his eyes and said, "If you still care about the affection we've had for so many years, please give me my freedom."

"Freedom?" Nong Ying said sadly, "You're not free when you're with me? I've taken you to so many places, we've traveled around the continent together, isn't that freedom?"

"But have you ever thought about whether I really want to wander around? I will miss my family and worry about them." Bai Lei was silent for a moment, then said, "My talent is not worthy of yours. Let's part ways amicably..."

Nong Ying burst into tears upon hearing this, "If I disliked your talent, why would I have kept you by my side all this time?"

As for her family, she only had her powerful younger brother Nong Jing. She really didn't understand why the Bai family, who had lost a mere yellow-level talent, would suffer such a tragic end.

This is the result of the unequal understanding between the two people.

Bai Yingying was getting a little impatient waiting on the side. Seeing the two of them being so clingy and unable to make a decision, she could only ask, "Brother, are you planning to leave with me?"

Bai Lei immediately replied: "Of course. Ah Ying, from now on, wherever you go, I will be there, and I will protect you..."

He was stunned when he said this.

Just now, it seemed that my sister fought with the orange-level Nong Ying and seemed to have the upper hand?

How is this possible? !

Isn't his sister a weak girl who can be blown down by a stronger wind?

What exactly happened in recent years?

Bai Yingying ignored his thoughts and said directly: "I plan to go back to the Shiwandashan Mountains. Brother, it would be good if you could come back with me."

She looked at Nong Ying again and said tentatively, "If this sister wants to come with me, I welcome her too."

For her, the past is unimportant.

These two are even less important, no matter how they develop.

The important thing is that she must let Nong Jing go back with her.

Nong Ying's eyes lit up when she heard that, and her tears stopped instantly. She confirmed again in disbelief, "Really? You don't hate me?"

Bai Yingying smiled. "How could I hate you? You are my brother's savior. If it weren't for you, he would have died long ago. Ah Ying would really be left without a single relative."

Bai Lei was shocked when he heard this: "But she...if she had let me come back to take a look, maybe everything would have been different..."

He was rescued by Nong Ying when he was on the verge of death. After recovering from his injuries, he repeatedly asked to go home, but Nong Ying always remained silent and disagreed.

He once thought about escaping, but at that time he was no longer in the Shiwandashan Mountains.

It is simply a fantasy to want to return safely alone.

Obviously, Nong Ying has the ability to send him back to see his family...

He had a knot in his heart that he couldn't ignore.

Bai Yingying looked at Bai Lei seriously, "Brother. There is a cause for every effect. If Nong Ying hadn't saved you, our family would still be in the same situation as it is now. But she saved you, so at least you're still alive, right? Why do you have to dwell on the fact that if you had returned home, the situation at home would have been different?"

At least there are still people from the Bai family alive.

She emphasized again, "Your current life was given to you by Sister Nong Ying. Without her saving you, what could you have done? You would have been reduced to dust long ago."

The truth is so cruel.

Nong Ying saved Bai Lei, which was a great blessing. Isn't it a bit greedy to ask for too much?

If Nong Ying is willing to send him back and set him free, that would be mercy.

After all, Nong Ying really had no obligation to send Bai Lei home.

In the end, fate plays tricks on us.

Without Nong Ying, Bai Lei would die, and the fate of the Bai family would not have changed at all.

In this cruel world of beasts, weakness is the original sin.

The dead are dead, and the living must continue to live.

Thinking too much will only cause you trouble.

Bai Yingying doesn't want to pursue the past and only looks at the immediate interests.

Bai Lei hesitated after hearing this...

Nong Ying seized the opportunity. She looked deeply at Bai Lei and begged, "A Lei, I will give you freedom. But this time, I want to follow you. Can you please not refuse?"

If she had known at that time that Bai Lei's family would be so fragile, she would not have been so overbearing.

For Bai Lei, how would he feel if the aloof goddess he had always secretly loved suddenly confessed her love to him one day?

Of course it's exciting and thrilling.

However, even with Bai Yingying's advice, he couldn't let go of his family's affairs in a short period of time.

At this moment, he hated his own weakness even more. If he had a red-level talent, he could secretly leave and visit his family after his injuries healed.

But he doesn't have such strength, he can only rely on Nong Ying and keep his promise of repaying his gratitude...

Bai Lei was in a state of conflict between his conscience and his desires, his expression changing rapidly, but he said nothing.

Bai Yingying didn't want to waste any more time, so she grabbed his hand and said, "Let's go. It's getting late, and the temperature will drop later, and I'll be freezing."
