Chapter 808: Xi Jin’s Transformation
Just as Shen Yunya left the building, a servant ran hurriedly towards her and anxiously reported to her, “Miss, the Crown Prince is here,” he said.
“Brother Jin?” Shen Yunya’s eyes widened with disbelief. She then looked at the servant. “Is it really Brother Jin?”
Had Brother Jin really came looking for her?
Had Brother Jin taken the initiative to visit her?“Yes.”
Shen Yunya staggered forward absent-mindedly. She then put on a wry smile. “How can Brother Jin possibly be looking for me?”
“Ya’er. Do you not want me to visit you?” Xi Jin appeared right outside the courtyard with a radiant smile on his face. He then strode towards Shen Yunya. However, his clenched fists didn’t reflect the happy smile on his face.
Shen Yunya had requested to meet him many times. However, ever since he had learned the truth from the state preceptor, he stopped seeing her. This was because he was afraid that he couldn’t control himself and would end up killing her. He needed to control himself now. How could he let Shen Yunya die so soon?
He wanted to torture Shen Yunya for a nice, long time. He wanted to pay Dai’er’s suffering back by a thousand-fold.
Shen Yunya raised her head and watched him walking slowly towards her. When she saw the gentle smile on Xi Jin’s face, she felt as if all her annoyance, her tears, and everything she had done had finally paid off.
“Brother Jin.” After not seeing him for a long time, Shen Yunya ran to him and threw herself into his arms. She then wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and cried aggrievedly.This really was Brother Jin. The servant wasn’t spouting nonsense. She wasn’t dreaming. All of this was real.
Xi Jin’s body turned stiff. His gentle eyes were instantly filled with murderous intent. His initially clenched fists became tighter. She could be so frail in front of him, but why must she cruelly harm Dai’er?
“I thought I would never see Brother Jin again.” Shen Yunya hugged his waist tightly as she cried aggrievedly. It had been so long since she had hugged him. She felt contented just by holding him. She felt as though everything she did had finally paid off.
When Xi Jin thought about how Dai’er had died a horrible death, he shut his eyes and took a deep breath in his heart. He then opened his eyes slowly. The hatred and murderous intent in them then disappeared immediately, leaving only the fake gentleness. He put his arms gently on her waist. “How is that possible? Ya’er can see me anytime you want from now on.”
When Shen Yunya felt his huge hands on her waist, her body turned stiff immediately. She raised her head and looked at him with eyes that were filled with tears. “Brother Jin?”
Brother Jin was hugging her. This wasn’t an illusion, right?
Brother Jin was hugging her of his own free will. Previously, he would only hug her when she fainted or when she was not feeling well. However, had Brother Jin really just held her unprompted?
“You’re crying like that after not meeting for only a few days.” Xi Jin acted as if he was unaware of why she was crying. He reached out and gently wiped the tears off her face. “Tell me what’s wrong.”
He was only this gentle towards Shen Qingdai. Shen Yunya felt shocked as her tears fell to the ground. She hugged his waist tightly and buried her face in his chest. “Brother Jin, you’re finally here after my long wait.”
His gentleness was finally not only towards Shen Qingdai.
Xi Jin put his hands by his side and replied with a soft ‘uh-huh.’ He wore a smile on his face. However, that smile was grim.
Had she finally gotten what she was waiting for?
There were a lot of things for her to look forward to in the future.
Was she blissful?
She must be blissful. If she was not, how was she going to suffer in the future?
If she was not feeling blissful, how was he going to avenge Dai’er?!
He wanted to hold Shen Yunya up high, then allow her to have a brutal fall. He wanted her to experience what it felt like to be betrayed and tortured by the person she trusted and loved the most.
