Chapter 1641: Chapter 1641: Fate Reversed
The more he looked at him, the more they resembled, seeking psychological comfort in sadness.
But he didn’t mind either; he could see her sorrow and sincerity, feeling just like Bao’er’s mom once lost him, in such painful despair, that he could understand her thoughts.
"I know, I appreciate Madam’s kindness."
"Hmph, so do you agree?"
"I am alone, with nowhere to go, of course I agree!" Ji Lingkong lowered his gaze; these days he had carefully considered his own situation and how to survive in this world in the future.
He wasn’t afraid to venture into a new world alone, after all, with his powerful abilities, he could make a name for himself in any world.
But Madam Councilman truly cared for him, hoping he would stay by her side to help her overcome the pain of losing her son. This madam had saved his life, so he should repay her kindness.
Seeing his agreement, Halian Jing was even more displeased, "You’re really good at climbing the ranks."
"It seems Councilman doesn’t welcome me, the new adopted son. What a pity," Ji Lingkong laughed maliciously.
He was quite surprised that this legendary formidable councilman finally agreed, tut-tut, one couldn’t tell; he’s actually a wife-fearing henpecked husband, an unexpected contrast.
Seeing him daring to joke, Halian Jing frowned in anger, "If it weren’t for Madam’s persistent plea, I wouldn’t have agreed."
"Plea???" Ji Lingkong laughed with deep meaning.
"You really are annoying," Councilman glared even bigger. The previous son was too weak, often making him feel disappointed, unable to keep up with his pace and become a strong successor to the family.
Now this ’future’ son is too smart and cunning, equally unpleasant.
"Since Councilman came to see me privately, there must be conditions for me to agree!" Ji Lingkong was indeed very smart and perceptive, sensing that tonight’s visit had hidden motives.
Halian Jing’s eyes flickered with astonishment, his gaze becoming deeper and sharper. Indeed, a very clever child, understands without being told.
It’s unclear whether this is a blessing or a curse.
"I can overlook your background, but if you become an adopted son of the Helian Family, you’ll be reborn, must abandon the past and start anew, becoming the noble son of a grand councilman."
Ji Lingkong was startled, "What do you mean?"
"If you agree, I will have someone use drugs to erase your past memories. Don’t blame me for distrusting you. In a large family like ours, adopting a son is a serious matter; I must be cautious, especially since you refuse to disclose your origin! Consider it carefully." Halian Jing’s tone was stern and cautious, a decision that allowed no resistance.
"No, I agree." Ji Lingkong surprisingly agreed readily, a pained and elusive smile on his lips, "This world actually has medication that can make one forget the past, it couldn’t be better."
He could no longer return; the memories of that world held a heavy sadness for him, no matter how much he missed them, he could no longer see his parents, sister, friends, or subordinates... all those he was reluctant to leave.
If living anew in this world, then forgetting the past might not be a bad thing.
Moreover, at the moment he fell into the vortex, he felt despair.
She never loved him and decidedly chose never to be with him, insisting he let her go. But what could he do? Can saying let go truly mean letting go? It’s a lifelong pain.
He once said, unless he completely forgets, neither heaven nor earth could destroy his love for her!
So, forget it!
Erase her completely, and erase this excruciating pain.
Ji Lingkong’s eyes were calm and indifferent.
Just wishing that after waking up anew, he would never fall in love with anyone again.
Because he no longer desires to love.
...
Jun Yiyi’s condition was recurring, drifting in and out of sleep for over ten days before waking up.
