Chapter 522: Chapter 522. So It Was Her
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Xiaoying heard someone calling her name as she walked. She turned around and saw a man in a cloak. The cloak covered his face, and she couldn’t see him. The voice was unfamiliar, but the feeling of this person standing there was very familiar.
“Xiaoying, have you forgotten about me?”
Seeing that Xiaoying did not recognize him, the man sounded very sad, as if Xiaoying had forgotten and had hurt him greatly.
“Who are you?”
Xiaoying lowered her head to see his face clearly, but this person was standing with his back to the sun, so Xiaoying could not see him clearly at all.
“You don’t remember me?”
The man asked her in pain. He raised his head slightly and looked at Xiaoying under his cloak. His voice was filled with anger.
“Is it because of that prince of Tartan?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
When Xiaoying heard his words, she suddenly felt terrified. She wanted to escape from this mysterious man quickly. She hurriedly said something and wanted to escape from this man who made her uncomfortable.
However, when the man saw she was about to escape, he suddenly grabbed Xiaoying’s arm. Xiaoying was so scared that she cried out for help. However, just as she shouted for help, her mouth and nose were covered before she could cry. A strange fragrance made her lose consciousness, and her body weakened. She could feel the man hugging her as they walked, but she could not resist and could only follow him.
She felt that the man had brought her to a grave. He said to the owner of the grave in a hoarse voice,
“Mother, I’ve found your daughter-in-law. Forgive me for being unfilial and unable to mourn for you and Father for three years. I have to marry Xiaoying immediately...”
When Xiaoying heard the man’s words, she immediately understood. He was Qiu Yongkang...
“You... Are you Big Brother Qiu?”
Xiaoying used all her strength to ask. Seeing that Sakura had finally recognized him, Qiu Yongkang was pleased. He stood up from the ground and wanted to hug Sakura,
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ll be gentler. Can you not provoke me?”
Seeing Sakura cry, Qiu Yongkang quickly let go of her hand. He used his fingers to wipe her tears gently. His hoarse voice and gentle tone gave Sakura goosebumps. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew away Qiu Yongkang’s cloak and hat.
“Ah...”
It was a terrifying face. The lower eyelids of the two eyes were turned outwards, revealing the pink flesh inside. The skin on the face seemed burnt, and the black and red flesh were wrinkled together. The nose was gone, leaving only two nostrils. The mouth could not be closed, revealing the teeth inside...
Seeing such a terrifying face, Xiaoying was so scared that she fainted. Qiu Yongkang saw Sakura’s intense reaction and suddenly went crazy. He punched the snow hard like an angry wolf that wanted to eat someone. He shouted hysterically,
“Su Qing, Ji Shuisheng, I’m going to kill you. I’m going to cut you into pieces...”
After venting his anger, Qiu Yongkang looked down at Xiaoying, lying on the snow. Two streams of tears flowed out from his burnt eyes.
Qiu Yongkang touched his face in agony. He used to be handsome. At that time, Xiaoying would always smile sweetly when she saw him. Now, she was so scared that she fainted! This made him wish he was dead.
He squatted on the ground and hesitantly touched Xiaoying’s smooth face. Tears fell drop by drop.
” Xiaoying, I can’t let go of you. Please, don’t despise my current appearance...”
Qiu Yongkang picked up the unconscious Xiaoying and walked towards the City God Temple. He had sneaked into Mo City through that secret passage. His goal was not to kidnap Xiaoying but to blow up Su Qing. This woman had harmed his entire family and caused him to have no choice. He wanted nothing more than to burn her to ashes.
However, his plans didn’t change as quickly. He wanted to buy food for his parents and Qiu Yue to visit their graves, but he met Su Qing and Xiaoying at the Moon Pavilion.
From the moment he saw Xiaoying, revenge wasn’t that important anymore. His suppressed longing was like a surging tide. When he heard that Xiaoying would marry Yelu Chun, Qiu Yongkang felt like a knife was cutting his heart.
Xiaoying and revenge were the driving forces that supported him to live on. If he didn’t have Xiaoying, what was the point of living?
Initially, he only wanted to protect Xiaoying silently, with his face burnt like this. But now, he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t watch Xiaoying marry another man, bear children for Yelu Chun, and smile sweetly at him!
No, he wouldn’t allow it. Even if he had to destroy the world, even if he had to kill everyone, even if he had to go to hell...
Even if...
Even if Xiaoying hated him...
