Chapter 379: Dark Side
Ever since the last competition, when he pulled out the screw on the railing and almost caused Fu Sui to fall off the building, and this time when he chose to stand by and watch Emma being bullied, Zhai Jing had already discovered that when he was angry, he would do things more aggressively and by hook or by crook.
Zhai Jing had never considered himself a good person. Ever since his mother fell ill, the family’s environment had plummeted. To support the family’s expenses, he grew up quickly at the age of ten.
In the past few years, to earn money, Zhai Jing had come into contact with many people and things. Some people took advantage of his young age to find ways to cheat and swindle him. There were even some wretched villains who wanted to extend their evil hands on him when they saw his outstanding appearance.
Although Zhai Jing was smart, he was still a child. Therefore, he suffered a lot in the beginning before he gradually grew up. During this process, he had also done some dirty tricks to counterattack.
However, it was indeed true that the first time that Fu Sui’s case was so serious that it threatened to take someone’s life. This was the second time, and Emma
had been involved.
Zhai Jing didn’t shy away from admitting the dark side of his personality, but he was afraid when he faced Le Wan.
Zhai Jing smiled bitterly.
“I’m afraid that you’ll think that I did something wrong, that you’ll be afraid of me, and that you’ll feel that you’ve fallen for the wrong person.”
Le Wan saw his stiff back.
“Do you regret it now? If you were given another chance, what would you do?”
When Zhai Jing heard her question, the bitter smile on his face froze. He clenched his fists tightly and admitted,
“If I had to do it all over again, I think I would still do the same thing.”
However, after Zhai Jing expressed his feelings, he stared nervously at Le Wan’s expression. He was very nervous, worried that Le Wan would show fear or disdain on her face in the next second.
However, after Le Wan heard his words, she only went forward and hugged him. She thought of the story about Zhai Jing in the book.
Le Wan couldn’t tell whether it was his experience that had shaped his personality today or the setbacks that had led him down the path of darkness. However, it was obvious that in his heart, his moral standards were indeed different from ordinary people.
Le Wan understood this point, but she didn’t feel afraid. Instead, she felt even more sorry for him. She believed that Zhai Jing was such a smart person. If he had more choices, he wouldn’t have chosen such an extreme method to achieve his goal.
“Promise me that you won’t take any more risks in the future, okay?” Le Wan softened her voice. “1 don’t care about other people. I only care about you.” Le Wan released her grip and looked up at him.
“I only hope that you can always be by my side and not put yourself in danger for someone else or something. This is what you told me last night. I’ve promised you, so you have to promise me that you won’t make me worry,
Le Wan didn’t think that Zhai Jing’s “tooth for tooth” approach was wrong, but she tried her best to keep Zhai Jing by her side. She was very unwilling to see him walk down the old path in the book and end up with a bad ending.
A person’s bottom line was slowly broken step by step. Therefore, she hoped that she could put a rope around Zhai Jing’s neck as soon as possible so that he would stop at the brink of the cliff and not walk into the abyss step by step.
When Zhai Jing heard Le Wan’s soft pleading, the defense in his heart collapsed.
Le Wan didn’t despise him. Instead, she accepted his dark and imperfect side.
How could he not love such a Le Wan? He hugged the person in front of him tightly, not knowing how to express his love. He could only lower his head and kiss her lips fiercely, wishing he could rub her into his bones and blood so that the two of them would never be separated.
Half an hour later, Zhai Jing came out of Le Wan’s room in high spirits. He bumped into Mama Le, who was carrying two or three bags of clothes in her hands. She was probably going to give them to Le Wan.
When she saw Zhai Jing coming out of Le Wan’s room, she pretended to be surprised and covered her mouth.
“It seems that I came up at the right time. I didn’t disturb you, did I?”
Zhai Jing looked calm, but his ears were slightly red.
“You’re not disturbing me. Do you need help?”
Mama Le waved the bag in her hand.
“Oh, it’s okay. I went shopping today and saw a few pretty dresses, so I bought them for the baby to try on. I forgot about it when you came back just now, so
I brought them along for her..”
