390 Forgive me, Lóng Wei [Bonus chapter]
Lóng Wei didn’t care if his cover would blow up today. All he wanted was to torture Mo Jinhai to death for speaking wrongly about Li Hua. He marched to Mo Jinhai, who was laughing with his friends while discussing a top. He would throw the hot, boiling soup on Mo Jinhai’s head.
However, he stopped. He suddenly recalled Li Hua’s face, who told him to control his anger even if the worst situation occurred before him. She had told him not to harm anyone when he would be furious.
He gulped down the anger that formed inside him and decided to punish Mo Jinhai when he would be alone. Mo Jinhai tilted his head and looked at Lóng Wei, who had a bowl in his hand.
“I didn’t order this,” Mo Jinhai told Lóng Wei and asked him to leave. The man came to Lóng Wei and asked him to return the bowl as he had ordered it. Lóng Wei handed it to him and walked out of the restaurant in anger. The soldiers chased him after they paid the bills.
When they came out of the restaurant, they found Lóng Wei in an extreme rage. They decided to remain quiet and stood behind him. Lóng Wei turned to face them, and they both lowered their heads in a fear.
“Go to the river bridge,” Lóng Wei told them.
“What about the prince?” They asked in a low voice.
“I have important work to do,” Lóng Wei replied. The ferocious expressions on his face made them silently leave. They didn’t want to anger him more, as they loved their lives.
Lóng Wei waited for Mo Jinhai to come out of the restaurant. After an hour, he came out with his friends and was ready to step into the sedan chair. His friends told him that they should meet in the famous wine shop in the evening, but Mo Jinhai refused. They bowed their heads as Mo Jinhai left in the sedan chair.
.....
Lóng Wei followed him. ‘Li Hua, forgive me. This man must die for insulting you,’ he told himself in his mind. However, there was no way he could find to kill Mo Jinhai. The route on which they were, was full of locals.
Only one chance was needed to end Mo Jinhai’s life. He continued to walk in the hope that the route would become isolated after a certain distance. However, he was wrong.
Lóng Wei halted in his tracks when someone held his arm. He tilted his head and found it was Tianjie.
“I told you to focus on work that you were given,” Tianjie said with an annoyed look and asked him to follow him.
Lóng Wei snickered and asked him to let go of his arm.
“I won’t. Defy me, and I will ask the Crown Prince to lock you up,” Tianjie threatened him. “Trust me, if anyone here finds out who we are, I am not going to let you go easily. So, better follow me.”
Lóng Wei turned to look and found Mo Jinhai had disappeared from his sight. He scrunched his brows and clenched his fist tightly.
“You are allowed to kill him later, but not now,” Tianjie said, and Lóng Wei looked at him. Those two bastards told Tianjie everything. That’s why he chased him. He yanked Tianjie’s hand from his arm.
“Learn to control your anger. It will make you fall into a big danger someday,” Tianjie said. Lóng Wei glared into his eyes and walked ahead.
After they got into the carriage, Tianjie asked him how many people he would kill merely because they talked about his past.
“Who told you to kill your own mother that night? You brought this upon yourself,” Tianjie stated, looking out of the window of the carriage.
“I am not in a mood to talk to you. So, just keep quiet!” Lóng Wei’s tone was not at all pleasant to hear. Anyone who would be older than him, would feel humiliated.
“Do you know why I do not like you?” Tianjie suddenly asked him. “Because you think you know everything. Just because you are good at various things, that doesn’t mean that you won’t lose.”
“Tianjie, do you think your words will comfort me? You also tried to kill Li Hua. You should be happy that I am quiet about it. Now, keep quiet before I end up taking out my anger on you,” Lóng Wei stated. Anyone would be intimidated by those words and his gaze. But Tianjie did not. He was not surprised to learn that Lóng Wei found out about it.
“But I retreated. You forced me to do it,” Tianjie said.
“You should take your revenge on me then. Involving her in all this will ruin the matter between you and me,” Lóng Wei affirmed.
“But it is easier to harm your wife,” Tianjie stated. “However, I have no intention to harm her anymore,” he added.
Lóng Wei refused to believe his words and asked him not to talk with him. “Your voice irritates me,” he asserted.
“I still wonder why your mother never taught you etiquette?” Tianjie, instead of stopping, continued to speak. He stopped after giving a good lecture to Lóng Wei.
Tianjie recalled the words of his father. He had called him the day he decided to send those three to Qijiang. Qiu Zedong wanted Tianjie to end his enmity with Lóng Wei.
When he asked his father why he thought that they were enemies. His answer had shocked him. Qiu Zedong knew that it was Tianjie, who was planning to kill Li Hua the same day that Eunuch Lishi executed his evil plan.
However, more than his father’s words, Li Hua’s words had impacted him. Her words troubled him more the day before their journey. He continued to glance at Lóng Wei, who had his gaze outside the window.
“Forgive me, Lóng Wei. I should not have thought about harming your wife.” Tianjie’s words made Lóng Wei look at him. He knitted his brows and then shook his head.
“Lóng Wei never forgives those whom he hates.”
