My Scheming Little Devil-Chapter 837 She Will Fall in Love with Him Again
"Ha, that’s true, the one with no moral baseline like myself, when did I ever start talking about conscience?" He mocked himself, perhaps he was just afraid, afraid that one day Ye Lu would find out how he had cruelly harmed Ling’s Family, and would despise him even more.
But that’s the kind of person he was, clawing his way to the top by any means necessary, never concerning himself with conscience. Because in such a world where power and violence ruled, if you weren’t ruthless, others would be ruthless to you, or even take your life!
He never felt that there was anything wrong with his actions.
"For a villain to want to become a hero, now that’s the funniest thing!"
...
Ye Lu sat in the hall, lost in thought, but was hugged from behind by Third Young Master Jun, his face pressed against her neck, sending warm breath on the back of her ear, causing a tingling sensation.
"What are you thinking about?" His voice was low, husky, and seductive, seemingly casual but with an imperceptible probing.
Ye Lu’s skin trembled, not liking the intimacy of his embrace, leaning against her.
However, remembering that he had a wound on his shoulder, she didn’t dare to push him away.
"Nothing much, just thinking about Ling Xiu and Qingchi’s matter."
Ever since Ling Xiu left, she kept thinking about this, wondering if she had done something wrong.
"Don’t you hate Ling Xiu very much? Why would you help him?" Third Young Master Jun’s slender phoenix-like eyes slightly curved, as he tilted his head to look at her bewildered profile, closely observing her reactions.
"I didn’t help him." Ye Lu felt conflicted inside; Ling Xiu’s actions towards Qingchi disgusted her, as it resembled her past self who had also endured humiliation.
She shouldn’t have felt sympathy for such a man; he was the architect of his own misery and deserved to live forever in the pain of loss.
Yet when she saw him in such agony, going so far as to kneel for a chance, her heart suddenly wavered.
Then she told Ling Xiu that Qingchi would come back, giving him a glimmer of hope.
"But in your heart, you still want them to be together, don’t you?" Third Young Master Jun’s voice was earnest and heated, his eyes not leaving hers for a second.
"Yes and no!" She responded with a lost expression.
She didn’t necessarily want Ling Xiu and Qingchi to end up together; she just wanted to see to what extent Ling Xiu would go for Qingchi. If a love that was already destroyed, if a heart that was already dead, could be revived, and what would be the price to pay for such an endeavor?
For some reason, she desperately wanted to witness a miracle!
Third Young Master Jun suddenly hugged her tighter, his eyes closed, his voice low and firm, "You do, you want them to get back together, for the lovers to eventually become spouses, isn’t that good?"
Ye Lu laughed with a sigh, "Lovers becoming spouses is of course good, the question is, are they even lovers?"
Third Young Master Jun tensed up.
"True love withstands any difficulty, and those who have it will stay together no matter what. Ling Xiu loves Qingchi, but does Qingchi love him? Then, how could there be a happy ending." Ye Lu thought to herself, miracles after all are just that, they hardly ever occur.
Third Young Master Jun caught his breath, then a determined look flashed in his eyes as he suddenly turned her around to face him, his gaze burning into hers, "There will be, because all it takes is making her fall in love with him again!"
Even if Ye Lu didn’t love him now, what did it matter? It didn’t mean there was no hope.
He would work hard to make her fall in love with him, he had to make her fall in love with him.
Ye Lu was taken aback, "Will she fall in love with him again?" 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
"She will." Third Young Master Jun looked deeply into her eyes, his belief unwavering, "He will give it his all, spare no expense, melt her heart, and make her stay willingly."
