Vol 7 Chap 224 - Really believe me?

XH 224 - Really believe me?

Xiao Liu stared at his master that was kneeling outside Xiao Hua's room silently, his head lowered in a defeated posture. His loose hair covered his face and Xiao Liu could not see his expression. But his current state reminded everyone of a drunken man that was finally sober after making a big mistake during his drunken misfit. 

Xiao Liu had tried to get their master to go to an Imperial physician to get treated but he refused, not willing to leave. 

"Let him be." An Jing stopped Xiao Liu's attempt. "Do not interfere with his decisions. Just be there to support him."

Xiao Liu frowned, not agreeing with An Jing's words. "You are too strict, sister-in-law."

"As servants, we should not force our master to do what we want, even in the name of helping him. It's his life and he needs to make his own choice." 

Long Zhu and Xiao Hua should deal with their personal business by themselves. Outsiders like them should not interfere too much. External influence would create more harm than help. 

Xiao Liu silently thought that An Jing was as cold hearted as ever. How did his elder brother manage to get her to agree to be with him? When he first met An Jing, she was already heavily pregnant with the twins. 

He eyed his elder brother beside him, and got a nod in return. Fine, this couple was always united in their decisions anyway!

"How is Da Bei doing?" Xiao Liu knows that Da An was worried sick for his twin inside the array, self injuring himself just to get to Xiao Hua.

"He had calmed down." But Da Bei was still determined to escape from the array. As long as Xiao Hua was still in danger, he will not stop his effort to go to her. 

"Why not just release him now that Miss Bai's punishment is lifted?" Xiao Liu questioned.

"Until he successfully turned back to his human form, the array will never let him go." The array served as Da Bei's cage and training at the same time.

Xiao Liu: ...So brutal! He's still a cub!

With a pained gaze, Xiao Liu looked away from his cruel sister-in-law that was abusing her own child. He had no right to interfere when Da Bei's parents were the one that designed this sort of training for him. 

"I will return to supervise Da Bei. Keep an eye on the master and make sure he does not die." An Jing passed a bottle to her husband.

"We can feed master pills to cure his injuries!" Xiao Liu excitedly said when he saw the bottle. He had forgotten of this method!

However, An Jing coldly refuted. "He should not tend to his injuries. It will be more sincere when he apologizes."

With his beautiful face that could made one wrongly assume he was a female, Long Zhu would look beautifully pitiful in his wounded state. Doctor Bai's anger will soften from seeing it.

Xiao Liu started to doubt whether An Jing do care about their master or not. 

Their conversation could be heard by Long Zhu, but he was occupied with his thoughts to be bothered about it. He was still shocked that he had let his rage affect his rational thinking and harmed Xiao Hua. Only wishing for the pain in his heart to disappear, he lashed out at someone that he had quickly claimed to have sinned without hearing her defense. 

Was this the case when one said revenge does not necessarily turn out to be relieving?

Long Zhu had once read a book written about a man's desire for revenge that blinded him of everything around him. His family persuaded him to give up on revenge, not willing to watch him falling into the abyss of hatred. But their words had him misunderstood their intention. Feeling betrayed, pushed his family away and walked his own path alone. Yet when he finally accomplished his revenge and his heart finally opened up for the first time after years of driven by the desire for revenge, he took in his surroundings and decided he did not like it.
