Seeing her getting back her consciousness, Jing Wei Jin's curl of the lips deepened. All this while he has been waiting here just to see her come back. "So, how was your experience here, my dear? Aren't you excited to tell me the exciting story of your bravery?" he asked, knowing that now his words would be perfectly reaching the woman's ears.
Li Xue fluttered her eyes open as she turned her head slightly to look at the man. "Bravery my ass! You better explain to me why were you there to shoot me? Does your gun haven't any better person to shoot?" Though her words were sarcastic, her low, hoarse and weak voice wasn't doing any justice to the intention of her tone.
Seeing her like that, Jing Wei Jin gave out a low chuckle as he said, "Umm … It was not like I have not got any better person to shoot with my gun. My gun works on my intentions, dear. Since it shot you that only meant I intended to shoot you".
Li Xue's lips got pursed at his words. Before she could say anything, the man guessed her words as he said, "Sigh, I thought that once the bullet would hit you, you would forget a certain someone. But I never knew that even in your unconsciousness you would only have him in your mind".
Li Xue was dumbfounded. Did this man even know how to speak in coherent words? Raising her brows slightly with some askance, she looked at him and the man sighed.
"Quite a heartless woman you are! Do you really want me to tell how my girlfriend was calling and remembering my enemy in her state of unconsciousness?" Jing Wei Jin said as he stood up to his full height and tucked both of his hands inside his pant's pockets.
Li Xue almost rolled her eyes at his words. Without delaying any second, she corrected the fact in his knowledge. "I have never been your girlfriend, Jing Wei Jin. Don't spread rumours around. You well know what the circ.u.mstances were in reality. And also, don't you dare play any games on me. Though I have promised to stay all understanding to your thoughtless pranks, I don't think I would be able to contain my best patience, if you involve Feng Shufen to it".
Though her words were said in a very relaxed and unharmful tone, her warning was quite evident in it. And she could easily see her intention getting delivered to the man.
Jing Wei Jin's smile paused as his eyes tried to act dominant over the woman. But how could he forget that the woman was not just any woman who would accept his dominance just by getting scared by his eyes?
Li Xue remained unfazed with his change in stature. Her amber eyes, challenging him to show his worst so that she can get her worst out too.
"My dear, are you asking me to just lose all of my control and declare war against his men outside. I am sure he would also be not too away from here now. If you say, keeping you by my side I can enjoy his death too. What do you think? Won't that be more interesting?" he said. His voice came out all sober but challenging.
Li Xue did not say anything. Her eyes just stared at him, without blinking. Then curling her lips a slightly upwards, she let out a smile as she said, "Do you really take me that naïve, Wei Jin? I thought in this world, you would be the last one to think of me like that? But I guess, I overestimated you. Do you really think I would not know my man's power and strength? If you want to challenge, then go ahead, I would also love to see the show."
Jing Wei Jin looked at her. Shaking his head at her words, he said, "Why do I feel that instead of me challenging him, it's you who is challenging me? Why? Do you want a show that bad?"
The answer was delivered wordlessly. And the man felt his nerves clenching at her expressions. "Haven't you kept too much of your faith in him? From your past, didn't you learn anything?"
On the mention of the past, Li Xue was instantly stiffened. Her past was a nightmare that was still haunting her at nights and was affecting her present. If not her past, then maybe she might have not been that way with Shufen. Though she was regretting her heartless words to him, she knew that was just a result of the fear she had in her heart.
Though she pretends to be strong and tough at the front, she knew her limits well. Whenever her past will be involved, she would lose a battle. The same happened with Shufen too. She knew he was just taking care of her but her fears forced her heartless words on him, without caring for his feelings.
And right at this moment too, the same was happening. This crazy man was purposely bringing her past so that she has nothing to retaliate.
Bringing much in herself, she finally said, "That man is my present. And with him by my side, I won't dwell in the past. Sooner or later, I will forget my sinful past. You don't have to worry".
Jing Wei Jin almost chuckled at her words. Clenching his jaws a little to suppress the storm he was feeling inside, he said, "With him by your side? Didn't I already make it clear to you, if that's the man you choose then it would be no harm to accept me in your life? Let's make our past relationship official?"
Li Xue's brows furrowed. She was about to say something when suddenly speedy footsteps running down the corridor was heard making her eyes look at the direction. And as thought, soon urgent knocks were heard at the door before pushing it open.
"Leader, Feng Shufen's men are here and they are saying that they are here to get back their Madam! They are already fearlessly breaking in the base".
