Chapter 94 - I Forgive You

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After the police accepted the case regarding the mental hospital, in order not to alert the enemy, they pretended nothing was wrong.

The task force’s office was located in a two-storey residential building not far from the mental hospital. One could see the door of the mental hospital from a certain room, and this room became the place where the task force monitored the mental hospital.

Yu Yao found Yu Lang in this room.

There was a very strong smell of smoke in the room, and Yu Lang was also holding a burning cigarette.

Hearing the door open, Yu Lang turned around and his gaze landed lightly on Yu Yao.

His eyes were bloodshot, and his hair was hanging messily on his forehead, as if he had aged a few years.

Yu Lang was clearly in a daze. He stared at Yu Yao for a long time before realizing who she was.

He reflexively smiled at Yu Yao. Yu Lang instinctively wanted to show his good side in front of his sister. “Yaoyao, why are you here?”

Yu Yao walked closer and stood beside Yu Lang. “They said that you were hiding here alone. I was a little worried, so I came to take a look.”

Yu Lang lowered his head and wanted to extinguish the cigarette. However, he saw that the ashtray was already filled with cigarette butts. He could only throw the cigarette butt onto the ground and extinguish it with his shoe.

He looked up and smiled bitterly at Yu Yao. “It’s my fault. I made you worry.”

Yu Yao said, “Do you need me to give you a comforting hug?”

A smile appeared on Yu Lang’s face, one that was tinged with bitterness and happiness. He didn’t answer, but he opened his arms to her.

Yu Yao walked over and stood in front of Yu Lang before hugging him.

The couch was covered in dust and had the footprints of the police officer who had slept on it. However, Yu Lang sat on it without minding the dirt. Yu Yao stood in front of him and the two of them hugged. Yu Lang buried his head in Yu Yao’s arms like a child seeking his mother’s comfort.

Yu Yao ran her fingers through his hair and said softly, “The police have already begun their operation. The criminal network this time is too huge. The arrest operation can’t be hidden from the public, so we don’t have much time left.”

Yu Lang’s muffled voice sounded from her embrace. “I know. I’m already prepared, but I still don’t want that moment to come.”

Yu Yao pointed to the worry in his heart. “Are you afraid that the Yu Corporation won’t be able to retreat safely from this storm?”

Yu Lang was silent for a moment before saying softly, “No, Yaoyao. I’m not afraid that the Yu Corporation will be destroyed by public opinion. I just think that even if we’ve already investigated the psychiatric hospital case, we’ve only dug out the tip of the iceberg. We have no way to uproot such a huge criminal organization. Before long, we’ll meet that criminal organization in battle, but I’m not confident that I can protect you guys.”

Only then did Yu Yao understand why Yu Lang was acting so dejected. She thought that he was worried about the future development of the Yu Corporation. After all, the mental hospital was considered a stain on the Yu Corporation. Even though the Yu Corporation had exposed this case, the public could still vent their anger on the Yu Corporation. As the head of the Yu Corporation, Yu Lang was making a very difficult choice.

Yu Yao would not be surprised if Yu Lang regretted playing along with her. However, she did not expect that Yu Lang was only worried that she and Yu Heng and Yu Jue would suffer revenge after formally declaring war on the criminal organization.

Yu Yao pursed her lips. “What about you?”

Yu Lang didn’t understand what she meant. He looked up at her blankly and asked, “What?”

“You’re worried about me and Second Brother and Third Brother, but what about you?”

“I’m your elder brother, so I naturally have to take your safety seriously.” Yu Lang smiled and looked at Yu Yao gently. “As for me, with this hug from Yaoyao, I’ll have the strength to face any difficulties.”

Yu Yao also smiled. She hugged Yu Lang tightly again. “Brother, I forgive you.”

Yu Lang looked at her with wide eyes.

Yu Yao said, “No matter why you are filled with guilt towards me, I just want to tell you right now that I have already forgiven and accepted you as my elder brother. So, you should release the shackles on yourself.”

Yu Lang looked at her, and his eyes welled up with tears. “Yaoyao, you know everything, right?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” Yu Yao’s gaze seemed to carry some kind of gentle force. “But I want to tell you that both I and the past Yu Yao will be proud of you.”

Yu Lang did not probe further to see if Yu Yao knew that he, Yu Heng, and Yu Jue had been reborn, nor did he probe further to see if she possessed the same memories as them. It was enough for him to obtain Yu Yao’s forgiveness and acknowledgment.

Yu Lang even felt that his younger sister was like a god that had brushed away the haze in his soul.

From this moment on, he had the courage to face the mistakes he had made in his previous life, and he also had the strength to continue atoning for his sins.

Yu Lang stood up and looked down at Yu Yao. He asked softly, “Yaoyao, we’re going to face the storm together.. Are you afraid?”
