The room was nonetheless shrouded in darkness, particularly when wanting from Li Zhenruo to Li Zhenran’s path, he might solely see the define of an individual, however not the expression of the individual.

Li Zhenruo stated, “Solar He instructed me that he got here to you.”

Li Zhenran heard the phrases and didn’t converse.

Ultimately, Li Zhenran appeared to sigh and stated, “Are you going to check me like this? Solar He can’t inform you this, as a result of I do know the place Solar He’s.”

Li Zhenruo squeezed the sting of the desk tightly, “Solar He actually got here to you?”

Li Zhenran stated, “Solar He got here to me. He requested me for cash and stated he would give me a photograph. He stated that I might positively be occupied with that photograph. I stated sure to him, and I gave him the cash.”

Li Zhenruo took a deep breath and stated, “You stated you wished to see it, however you knew that Li Zhentai would by no means let go of this chance to cope with me, so whereas he drove me out and located somebody to kill me, you stored watching from the sidelines.”

Li Zhenran out of the blue approached Li Zhenruo slowly, his footsteps had been notably loud within the darkness till he stopped in entrance of Li Zhenruo and reached out to the touch Li Zhenruo’s face.

His palms had been heat and dry as all the time, however Li Zhenruo shivered for no purpose.

I assumed he would make Li Jianglin offended by killing you, so he would examine this matter totally, however as a substitute, I didn’t anticipate it to spur Li Jianglin to surrender and drop the matter.”

Li Zhenruo felt Li Zhenran’s light contact and stated, “You knew the reality from the start, however you pretended to not know something and performed me for a idiot.”

Li Zhenran stated, “I stated it was Li Zhentai who did it, I didn’t deceive you.”

By now Li Zhenran nonetheless stated that he didn’t deceive him. Li Zhenruo was out of the blue very offended, his throat was dry and sore. He raised his head and stated, “You noticed the photograph, then what? The place is Solar He? What’s happening in Luo Yunguang’s place?”

On the similar time, with a view to stop Solar He from speaking nonsense, I stored having individuals searching for him, forcing him to go away the place and never dare to return again.”

Li Zhenruo stated, “So that point later, once you took me to Luo Yunguang, you had already conspired to placed on a present with him for me?”

Li Zhenran kissed his brow, “What he stated is the reality. I requested him to inform you all the pieces you need to know.”

Li Zhenruo was a little bit dazed, “Then what he stated to Li Zhentai was a deception?”

Li Zhenran stated, “Sure, I requested him to say that to Li Zhentai. I can’t give Li Zhentai the chance to grab my weak point and threaten me again, and on the similar time maintain him from giving up and need to proceed to wrestle. That manner, we will ship him to his demise in title solely.”

He whispered these phrases near Li Zhenruo’s ear, and his ethereal voice burrowed into his ear, like a moist and chilly insect.

Li Zhenruo felt that he might not management his feelings, he raised his hand to push Li Zhenran away and wished to keep away from him. However when he rotated, he was hugged by Li Zhenran from behind. Li Zhenran’s arms had been tightly wrapped round his waist, regardless of how laborious he struggled, Li Zhenran wouldn’t let go. He then stated in his ear, “Zhenruo, hear, I do love you. I solely know the reality from the start to the tip, I’ve not harmed you.”

Within the days after I doubted your id, I hoped you weren’t Li Zhenruo greater than as soon as, however I nonetheless couldn’t keep away from it. After twenty years of being brothers, what sort of relationship will we had? How would you like me to take a position myself to you? Should you and I swap identities, are you able to swear you gained’t do the identical factor?”

Li Zhenran stated, “Ask your personal coronary heart, can’t you’re feeling that I really like you?”

Li Zhenruo tried his greatest to calm his breath, “From the time you knew I used to be Li Zhenruo, you had been planning find out how to utterly take your self out of this matter, proper? I felt very unusual earlier than, at the moment it was apparent I deceived you first and left dwelling afterwards, but you took the initiative to return to me and ask for peace since you had already deliberate what was to observe, didn’t you?”

Li Zhenran didn’t reply, in Li Zhenruo’s view, he acquiesced.

At the moment, reasonably than being offended at being deceived, Li Zhenran started to consider find out how to current the reality to Li Zhenruo. After hesitating, he lastly determined to cowl up all of the information associated to him, and solely let him learn about Li Zhentai. Nevertheless, what was offered to Li Zhenruo on this manner was virtually the whole reality.

Anger was the disguise. After Li Zhenruo ran away from dwelling, Li Zhenran determined to cease the disguised anger and selected to bow to Li Zhenruo.

Li Zhenruo stated, “Because you selected to cover from me, why did you let me see Li Zhentai alone? It’s best to have watched me and never let me have the possibility to be alone with him.”

Li Zhenran heard the phrases and stated, “So it was Li Zhentai. I allow you to see him alone as a result of he didn’t know that I used to be concerned on this matter from starting to finish. I need you to look at him die and full your revenge. I didn’t assume he’d say something to you that will make you begin to suspect me.”

“No,” Li Zhenruo shook his head, “It’s not that I doubt you, it’s simply I doubt that another person was concerned behind this affair.”

Li Zhenran requested him, “So do you hate me?”

Li Zhenruo stated, “Let go of me first.”

Li Zhenran let go of his hand and helped Li Zhenruo repair the collar that had come unfastened within the tugging.

Li Zhenruo stated, “I don’t hate you, I’m just a bit afraid of you. If I proceed to be with you, I’ll by no means be capable to eliminate doubts and fears. I don’t know which of your phrases is true and which is fake. Even now, I started to suspect that the reality is just not so easy, there’s a greater state of affairs behind it, and I don’t understand it even when I’m in it.”

“Zhenruo,” Li Zhenran reached out to the touch his face.

Li Zhenruo turned his head to keep away from it. He walked in the direction of the door of the workplace, and at last stopped by the door. He reached out and grabbed the collar round his neck and ripped it off. The chain buckle behind the collar was pulled off, and a bloodstain was additionally strangled on the again of the neck.

“This collar,” Li Zhenruo stated, “I do know it has a tracker, however I by no means took it off. I assumed it was extra of a reminiscence of the previous between us, and it all the time misplaced its sensible significance, however now I’m not so positive anymore. I’m not your cat, and you may’t tie me up.”

After he stated that, he threw the collar within the path of Li Zhenran.

The collar hit Li Zhenran’s chest after which landed on the bottom with a crisp sound.

Li Zhenruo opened the door and walked out, whereas Li Zhenran crouched down to choose up the collar slowly along with his fingers.

When he got here out of Li Zhenran’s workplace, Li Zhenruo realised that it was nonetheless darkish exterior within the hall. He groped for the path of the elevator. However after two steps he remembered that the facility had gone out and the carry had naturally stopped, so he rotated and groped within the path of the stairwell.

The staircase was so pitch black and there was no mild in any respect coming in.

He felt that his head was spinning, so he modified again to the form of a cat, and his imaginative and prescient out of the blue turned clear earlier than operating downstairs. He simply stored operating out of Yunlin’s constructing, Li Zhenruo ran all the way in which ahead on the brightly lit avenue.

The chilly wind of the night time stored blowing via his physique, and his aching thoughts was regularly clearing up. When he stopped and rotated, Yunlin’s constructing had disappeared from sight.

He slowed his tempo and raised his head like many smug cats.

When he was nonetheless an entire human, love was only a spice of life for him. He believed that the aim of life as a person needs to be a profession; after dropping his life, his aim in life was to seek out his assassin and to take revenge; when he obtained his revenge, he wished to stay longer to accompany Li Zhenran. He admitted that he was a little bit addicted to like and couldn’t extricate himself from it. He understood the style of affection past the sky, and different issues appeared much less vital.

Till now.

When he was standing on the intersection and ready for the purple mild, a number of individuals round him had been him. Li Zhenruo’s cell phone was placed on a rope by him, so it could possibly be hung round his neck when he changed into a cat.

A younger man appeared to have adopted him for some time, and when he noticed him alone as a cat, he knelt down and pretended to pet his head whereas making an attempt to get the telephone round his neck.

Li Zhenruo bit his hand mercilessly then bumped into the group and ran away.

When he noticed the purple mild flip inexperienced and the pedestrians hurrying ahead, Li Zhenruo thought to himself, ought to his story be over now? Reasonably than being a cat, he nonetheless wished to be an entire individual.

He had already fulfilled his want with this physique, so it was higher to return the physique to the unique proprietor now and to reincarnate as quickly as doable. He didn’t want an excessively distinguished household, even when he was a baby of a poor man, to work step-by-step for what he wished was the perfect life.

I’ve obtained a protect in entrance of me, come on, assault me, I’ll faux I didn’t see it

Notes:
