Turning around to meet the scum’s face after the demon king had left with her daughter, Bai Ning’s expression was cold and unkind: “I… remember everything.”
This sentence instantly sends Ning Yuan into a trembling panic as he stared at that face whom he dreamed for years to have.
“You erased my memories because I repeatedly rejected you back then, did it ever cross your mind that this day would come?” That said, she then began to walk slowly towards the scum, her steps measured and powerful.
“Ning’er, I only did all that because I love you too much, that’s why I did all those things….”
“Love?” She scoffs a sarcastic sneer, “I rather not have this sort of crazy love from you! Not to mention I have a child and husband, based on what can you make me forget them and accept you?”
The downgrading remarks from the lady had left the scum humiliated and shamed, evident by the clenched fist he’s making. Even so, Ning Yuan regrets nothing. Since that year where he first lay eyes on Bai Ning climbing up from the cliff in her blood ridden state, he has fallen heads over heels for her and could never get out of that quagmire.
He thought he could get the woman to accept him once she loses her memories, which he believes any love-stricken man would do if they’re being rejected as so. However, history has proven him wrong, very wrong…
“How can you be so cruel to me Ning’er? I offered up so much, paid so much!” Ning Yuan’s voice trembled with the note of deep scarring pain which pierced straight into his bones.
“Why should I accept a dark hearted person like you?” Bai Ning unequivocally shuts the scum down, “My husband is an honest and upright man in this world. Even if he is not as strong as you, but in my mind, he is a hero, while you are nothing but a wretched little man.”
While you are nothing but a wretched little man….
Her last sentence rumbled like a rolling thunder, blasting the scum backwards.
So in her eyes I’m nothing but a wretched little man?
How laughable!
With his eyes closed, Ning Yuan’s face was full of grief and pain until he opened them again. This time he’s pleading, “Then can you let me go out of consideration for accompanying you for all these years?”
“Hahaha!” Bai Ning suddenly bursts into a hysterical laughing fit, her voice mad and crazy sounding.
“Let you go? You ripped my past from me and had me forget my own husband and daughter! Why should I let a bastard like you go who stole all those precious moments from my life? But…. if things hadn’t gone this way today, I might’ve spared your life out of concern for Yu’er…. But you killed her, then tried to kill my flesh and blood as well today! Which part of your behavior warrants mercy? Tell me, which part!”
“No!” Ning Yuan stumbles another step back, his head shaking like he’s refusing reality, “The ones who wanted to hurt your daughter is the Celestial Palace, I’m innocent!”
“Innocent?” she chuckles with an icy note, “If not for you would they have known to come here and ambush us? If not for you would Yu’er be dead? If not for you would my daughter’s life be in peril? And if not for you, would my grandson have been provoked and devolved into that state?!”
