Chapter 13: Yu Ling’er’s Regret

“He... was protecting me... He would rather die than leave me, yet because he needed to protect me, he had to leave me...” Watching the drama unfold, Yu Ling’er’s eyes were already brimming with tears. She increasingly believed that what she saw was the truth.

The one who protected her from the demonic beasts was not Senior Brother Qin, but Junior Brother Yu Xuan. However, Junior Brother Yu Xuan was forced to become a coward who fled—!!! The injustices he suffered were far from just this.

Yu Ling’er held back her overwhelming tears as she watched the unfolding scene, knowing that what she was about to do was excessively cruel.

“Damn it, Ye Xuan, you bastard—!!!”

Thud—!!!

Ye Xuan’s fist heavily struck an ice wall. Contrary to the expected shattering ice, there was no such heroic scene. Only his hand, bleeding profusely.

No physical pain could lessen the helplessness in his heart.

“Junior Brother Yu Xuan, you’re here.” At that moment, Yu Ling’er approached Ye Xuan from behind.

She looked at him, his face filled with regret, his hand bloodied from the punch, yet she felt no sympathy. Instead, she thought to herself: Serves you right for abandoning me and running away.】UppTodated from nô/v/e/l/b(i)n.c(o)/m

“...”

But Yu Ling’er, unaware of Ye Xuan’s thoughts, just wanted to vent her frustration on him. Thinking of how Ye Xuan always said he liked her, and how hurt he would be if he heard her express affection for someone else...

The naive Yu Ling’er suddenly said, “Junior Brother, why don’t you greet the Senior Brother? He has already greeted you... Compared to you, I prefer someone like Senior Brother – courteous, gentle, and powerful.”

Boom—!!!

At that moment, Ye Xuan felt as if a thunderbolt had struck in his mind. His entire world seemed to turn white, devoid of any meaning.

Watching this scene, Yu Ling’er also felt dizzy.

How excessive had her past actions been? Back then, Ye Xuan was even willing to sacrifice his life for her. Yet, after he desperately protected her, she brought the person who drove him into a corner, the one who stole his credit, to praise him in front of Ye Xuan...

Even claiming her affection for such a person.

Why was she so foolish back then? Why couldn’t she see the truth?!! What kind of injury had she inflicted on Ye Xuan at that time? Even the younger, naive her understood that such words were incredibly hurtful to someone who liked her.

And even more so now.

Ye Xuan, I, Yu Ling’er, owe you an apology. I was blind and mistook the person...

I never imagined that Senior Brother Qin was such a person; I was always deceived by his outward appearance. But even though I wronged you, you shouldn’t have practiced forbidden demonic arts, killed my parents, and led demons to attack the mountain. You shouldn’t have harmed the innocent—!!!
