Chapter 833: Chapter 661: Love Her Well for Me
A sound of footsteps came from the distance, and a small squad quickly surrounded the man in the wilderness, trapping him in the center. Jin indeed seemed to have lost his soul, unresponsive to his surroundings, wandering aimlessly like a ghost searching for something.
A tall silver figure suddenly charged in, pressing him heavily to the ground—this was Yue Lin, whom he hadn’t seen for a long time.
He demanded sharply, "Where is Xun Fu?"
"Xun Fu... Xiao Fu..."
"Shen Tang! I’m asking you where she went!"
Yue Lin was extremely anxious, his deep, icy voice like shattered ice, disregarding the usual aloofness. The last time his family’s head confined him at home for reflection but eventually, he managed to come out.
The first thing he did after coming out was to look for Xun Fu, fearing she might get caught up in trouble with this leopard.
Soon, Yue Lin heard commotion coming from the laboratory; without thinking, he knew it was definitely caused by the two of them! He hurried over but, after searching the vicinity, only found this soul-loss leopard, while the female was nowhere to be seen.
He clearly left a mark on Xun Fu, but suddenly he couldn’t sense it.
There were only three possibilities: either the target was dead, the mark was erased, or she had gone too far, too far to be tracked.
If it’s the first case... he would definitely slaughter this leopard with his own hands!
At this moment, Shou Jin had already lost his usual proud and unruly demeanor. His aura had become calm, but so calm it was like a stagnant pool of water. Those deep, sharp golden eyes seemed out of focus, a hint of desolation and confusion within their emptiness, only mumbling softly, "I...I don’t know."
He didn’t know where she went.
"How could you not know?" Yue Lin was angry and anxious, his icy voice mixing a touch of jealousy and sarcasm, "Ha, isn’t she the one who cared most about you? How could she leave without saying a word?"
Jin said, "She...she and I have no relation anymore."
Yue Lin tightened his eyebrows. He initially thought this leopard was deliberately hiding the truth, afraid that he would find Xun Fu. However, seeing him in this lost and dejected state, it seemed he genuinely didn’t know. Perhaps... the two really had parted.
But Xun Fu should still be alive; otherwise, this leopard wouldn’t be like this.
Yet the clues had completely broken. Yue Lin’s heart burned with anger, his tone even colder: "Ha, did you drive her away?"
"..."
"Shou Jin, I really pity you and envy you. Seeing you and her like this, I don’t even know whether I should be grateful or angry—for her, feeling it’s not worth it."
Yue Lin rose from him, looking down at the black-haired young man, his voice complicated: "Do you know what she did for you?"
"In the days when you lost control and went wild, in the days when you were hunted, she went to save you again and again, not even caring for her life."
"In the days you were unconscious, she stayed watching over you without even closing her eyes. Even seeing I felt heartache."
"You know? I’ve lived all these years as the Moon Wolf Clan’s young master and have never seen a female devote herself so deeply to a male, sacrificing so much... Sometimes I can’t even distinguish whether I love Xiao Fu or envy her feelings for you."
Yue Lin admitted he was a at heart a vulgar male. His initial liking for Shen Tang stemmed from interest or even lust. But what truly ensnared him was her affection for Shou Jin.
The better she treated him, the more Yue Lin desired her, wanted to compete for her.
It was this affection that made him envy so much.
He so wished she loved him instead.
Yue Lin, as the esteemed young master of the Moon Wolf Clan, had never envied anyone nor felt jealousy—Shou Jin was the only male he was jealous of.
"Do you know why I’m telling you this? I’ve always felt you don’t deserve her. Looking at it now, you indeed don’t know how to cherish her, said those words breaking her heart, and she really left."
The man’s icy voice, one word at a time, felt like knives stabbing into Jin’s heart, making his heart bleed, causing pain that made his body sway and his face pale as paper.
Yue Lin unwillingly lamented, "Why does she have to love you?"
Jin seemed to finally find his voice, rough and unrecognizable: "...No, she doesn’t love me, I’m just a substitute."
Yue Lin glanced at his already calm aura, snorted coldly: "Then why did she give you the Crystal Core?"
Jin’s figure shook, his face turning paler, standing frozen, speechless.
Perhaps even he didn’t understand why.
"That Crystal Core was the only chance to revive her Beast Husband. If you were just a substitute to her, she would never have given this chance to save your life."
