My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 1151 What Is Called Utter Evil
Third Young Master Jun’s face darkened, "Do as I instructed. Losing these weapons and communication tools would greatly impact the entire plan."
Feiyu had no choice but to obey and take action.
After Third Young Master Jun made his arrangements, he turned to look at Ye Lu, noticing her pensive expression.
"What are you thinking about?" he raised his eyebrows.
Ye Lu paused for a moment but decided to be honest, "Lie Feng seems unusually silent tonight."
"He’s always like this. You haven’t interacted with him much to know that he is a man of few words," Third Young Master Jun said dismissively with a smile, "Sometimes he can go an entire day without uttering a word, just like a silent gourd."
Ye Lu thought to herself that this was not what she meant and she was not discussing Lie Feng’s personality.
Yet she couldn’t help but feel that there was something odd about Lie Feng today, as if he was hiding something.
But seeing how much Third Young Master Jun protected and trusted Lie Feng, she did not feel it was her place to say more. After all, Third Young Master Jun’s trust in his subordinate was absolute, without the slightest doubt.
Naturally, she also believed in Lie Feng’s loyalty. After all, having followed Third Young Master Jun for so many years, if Lie Feng had any intentions to betray, Third Young Master Jun would have surely noticed it.
Moreover, Lie Feng had shared life-and-death experiences with Third Young Master Jun and had a special bond with him. During the villa attack, he had drawn the Black Wolf Army away, risking his life to ensure Third Young Master Jun’s safety. It would be unimaginable for such a man to be a traitor.
"Alright, let’s stop talking about this. I’ve told you everything about the godfather; is there anything else you want to know? I’ll hold nothing back," Third Young Master Jun pinched her cheek.
After a moment’s thought, Ye Lu asked, "How many years have you been with him?"
She was merely curious, but she didn’t expect Third Young Master Jun’s face to suddenly change, as if he had been pricked by something.
His hand loosened and slid from her face; his expression grew cold and distant as he fell into memory. His face flickered between light and dark, shrouded by a layer of ominous grey, mysterious and unclear.
Ye Lu’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. Seeing his indifferent eyes, she realized it must be a very dark past.
Just as she was about to interrupt him, he began to speak with alarming calmness.
"I first saw him when I was twelve. I stumbled upon a lake where he ordered a man to be drowned. Then they all left. I fished the man out with a bamboo pole, and without looking back, the man staggered off and fled."
"And then?" Ye Lu felt a shiver run through her as she observed Third Young Master Jun’s eerily calm expression.
"After that, the godfather reappeared. He told me that I shouldn’t have saved that man because it meant his doom. At the time I didn’t understand. Later, they brought a woman and a few children and publicly executed them. That man ran back crazily and ended up being killed as well. It was the first time I saw someone murdered and the first time I realized what true evil was."
Third Young Master Jun’s lips, as faint as winter cherry blossoms, his pupils as eternal as glacial frost, were tinged with a stroke of irony flowing within the ice; so profound, so bone-deep, so ruthless.
That person had shown him with a bloody reality just how cruel the world could be, overturning his notions of good and evil and warping his character.
"It wasn’t your fault. You just wanted to save someone," Ye Lu said, seeing his dimmed expression, her heart ached fiercely as she grasped his hand earnestly.
He was only twelve then, naturally kind-hearted, wanting to save someone, yet he never expected to cause several deaths.
She couldn’t imagine the kind of trauma such a bloody scene could inflict on a child.
But for him, the moment he witnessed that woman and children being killed...
