The Villains All Fell in Love with Me After Rebirth: 22. Promise
Ji Ling looked at Jing Sui in a daze, his brain was completely in a state of shutdown, and it took him a while to realize that Jing Sui actually said sorry to him!
He must be dreaming, or the kind of nightmare...
Jing Sui actually said sorry to him, no... why did you say sorry to me! You did a good job, there is no need to say sorry to me, please continue to be ruthless!
I don't need to be sorry at all, okay! Ji Ling was roaring in despair.
Jing Sui looked at Ji Ling's sad and shocked eyes, the cold chill flowed through his blood, almost frostbite his internal organs.
Doing it all over again, seeing with my own eyes the harm I did to the young man was countless times more real than what I remembered, and the cracks in my heart, which were densely packed like spider webs, were once again on the verge of breaking apart.
For a long time, Jing Sui spoke in a deep voice, looking gently into Ji Ling's eyes: "You don't need to prove anything to me in this way, in the future... don't do such dangerous things again, eh?"
Ji Ling looked at the man in front of him in a trance, who was always cold and indifferent, but stared at him with such focused and gentle eyes, and finally felt sad.
So you who killed a thousand swords, you are really born again! Why can't you hold on, as the male lead, you're going to join forces with those villains? !
Ji Ling is like a child who has suffered a lot of grievances. Although he encountered many difficulties before, he kept telling himself to be strong, to persevere, and not to lose hope in life, but fate still gave him merciless The heavy blow... being comforted by Jing Suiyi at this moment, he finally couldn't hold back the tears, and cried out with a wow.
How can you do this!
You are too much!
Jing Sui watched Ji Ling burst into tears suddenly, his shaking eyes were full of helplessness and despair, and the accusing gaze was like a sharp knife, piercing straight into his heart.
It turns out that the current self has already hurt him so deeply. How indifferent and ruthless should I be to cause a mere gentle word to bring the boy's emotions to the verge of collapse?
Did my former self be so harsh on him...
Why... I didn't come back earlier?
This idea came to his mind again, God gave him a chance to be born again, maybe it was for him to witness with his own eyes how cruel what he did...
Let him hate his former self so much, but there is nothing he can do about it.
Sorry.
From now on... I will never make you sad again, okay?
The light in Jing Sui's golden pupils was dim, and he stretched out his hand to take the crying boy into his arms, brushed his palm gently over the boy's soft hair, and whispered in his ear, "Don't cry."
Ji Ling was held in Jing Sui's arms, comforted by his soft voice, his heart was ashamed, and he almost gave up on himself.
He felt the cold breath brought by the man's approach, enveloping him forcefully and gently, giving him a feeling of nowhere to escape... The last bottom line insisted that he maintain his sanity.
He can't accept Jing Sui!
He is a straight man, and his current personality is set to be infatuated with Jing Sui. It stands to reason that no matter how deep the injury is, as long as Jing Sui gives him a little sweetness, he can immediately turn around and give him a hug. The kind who wants to be grateful to Dade even if he smiles...but he really can't do it!
He is just a sailor who takes money to do things. It doesn't matter if he likes it usually, but if suddenly one day the idol turns around and tells you, let's be together, I accept your feelings. After they are together...maybe kiss-kiss, pa-pa...
Ji Ling's eyes almost went dark.
Thinking of being trapped in such a terrifying world and facing the risk of being **** by a man, under such a desperate situation, Ji Ling's strong desire to survive finally exploded his own small universe, and now he must reject Jing Sui. !
The rabbit is in a hurry and will bite people!
Ji Ling pushed Jing Sui away violently, looked at him with red eyes, and said angrily: "Don't lie to me, you were still comforting Ning Yu just now, you obviously like him, and you came here today because of him Well...you are just afraid that he will hurt me and be retaliated against, and that I will not be willing to continue to trouble him, I don't need your hypocrisy!"
Jing Sui was startled, his arms were empty, and the pain in his eyes was almost uncontrollable.
When he was reborn, the duel had already begun. The reason why he didn't fight at the beginning was because he hoped that Ji Ling could restore some of his reputation with his own hands. And he didn't show up for Ning Yu at all. If he had directly injured Ning Yu and taken Ji Ling away, the angry people would have vented their anger on Ji Ling and made him a target.
That's why I deliberately pretended not to care about him, stayed at the scene to appease Ning Yu, and minimized the adverse effects caused by this incident, so that even if the public had some dissatisfaction, most of them would only point the finger at him and ignore discipline. Ling.
But Ji Ling didn't understand, all he saw was the scene of him leaving him and talking to Ning Yu.
This child has always been so simple and heartbreaking and helpless.
For a long time, Jing Sui sighed lightly, and explained slowly and gently: "No, I did that just now to protect you."
Ji Ling immediately asked stingingly, "Are you protecting me?"
If it was such a simple truth, Jing Sui would not bother to explain it to others, but when he looked at the sad boy, how could he bear his misunderstanding and sadness? He said: "This is a fair duel. It is against the rules for me to intervene. If I defend you too much, it will only make you a target of public criticism. Do you understand?"
Ji Ling froze for a moment, so you think so? This principle is very simple and easy to understand, he just didn't think in this direction just now, now hearing what Jing Sui said, he is even more desperate and angry :)
It turns out that you were not defending Ning Yu just now, but me!
It’s fine for you to be reborn, forget about the guilt, I can barely understand... But your affection for the protagonist makes me so sad and indignant, how can you ignore him so much? To ignore the righteous and kind protagonist for the sake of vicious cannon fodder like me!
Shockingly ruthless!
No, I, Ji Ling, will never admit defeat!
He took a deep breath, fixedly looked at Jing Sui, and said coldly, "Really?"
Seeing that Ji Ling had finally calmed down a bit, Jing Sui thought that he understood what he meant and accepted his apology, but at this moment he saw tears welling up in Ji Ling's eyes again. Looking at him with eyes, as if he is a very scary existence...
Ji Ling's eyelashes trembled slightly, and there were tears in his eyes, but there was a sad smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said word by word: "Apart from your status as a nobleman, what else can you compare to him."
Jing Sui's expression finally changed.
Ji Ling clearly and slowly repeated that sentence word for word. His eyes were full of despair, sadness, and pain. He fixedly looked into Jing Sui's eyes, "This is what His Majesty said to me that day. I remember every word clearly."
Jing Sui's lips moved slightly, but no sound came out.
"At that time, Your Majesty probably didn't expect that I would go to Ning Yu for a duel... But what I didn't expect was that you love him so much." Ji Ling looked at him disheartened, and pulled away sarcastically At the corner of his mouth, there seemed to be an inaudible tremor in his voice, which he tried to keep calm. He said: "In your capacity, in order to protect a person, you are willing to treat me like a **** dude that you look down on."
"I was expecting naively. You didn't deny it that day, but you just perfunctory my words. It was just an excuse you made to reject me. I didn't believe that you really liked him...but now I finally believe it. " Ji Ling smiled, tears streaming down silently, "It turns out that you like him so much that you can intervene in duels for him, clear obstacles for him, and solve all troubles for him. For him... Come and lie to me."
Every time Ji Ling said a word, Jing Sui's complexion became paler.
He wanted to refute. He couldn't be bothered to do such a despicable behavior. He is fully capable of protecting his lover, just like I want to protect you now.
But even if I say it's not like that now... who would believe it?
If it weren't for the experience of that life, if it weren't for the painful regrets of the hundreds of years, even he himself wouldn't believe it.
I can't believe that I would be like this, caring about a person.
Jing Sui closed his eyes, concealed the tiredness in his eyes, and said, "It's not like that."
Ji Ling suddenly shouted in grief and indignation: "Enough!"
He gave Jing Sui a bitter look, raised his hand and wiped his eyes, as if he couldn't hold on anymore, he turned around and ran away from Jing Sui!
Standing there, Jing Sui watched the young man pass by him, that hateful look in his eyes was like a thousand feet of freezing cold, making him unable to move.
Sometimes, once the damage is done, even if it takes a hundred times and a thousand times, it will be irreparable and irreparable.
In the abyss, how can we hope to leave easily?
What about salvation?
But even so, in this life, please allow me to protect you, even if I spend my whole life begging for forgiveness, it doesn't matter.
……………
Ji Ling performed supernormally just now, finally got rid of Jing Sui, returned to his home, and began to call the system impatiently.
Ji Ling: [This mission is so cute, I won't do it! 】
System: [... Calm down. 】
Ji Ling: [I can't calm down now! ! ! 】
System: 【……】
Ji Ling: [He must have been reborn, otherwise it would be impossible to say such things to me, the male protagonist has been reborn, how can this task be done! 】
The system also saw the scene just now, and couldn't be justified, so it had to hint tactfully: [But if you don't do the task, what will happen to your reward...]
Ji Ling was furious, let him stay in this strange world full of scary bosses, and live in fear every day, fearing that he would die, it would be better to let him die! He took a deep breath and said: [If it's really not possible, let's read the file and start over. 】
The system is a bit embarrassing: [We have not yet determined the reason for the rebirth of the character in this world, so even if the file is loaded and restarted, there is no guarantee that it can be completely restored to the original state...]
Ji Ling's eyes darkened when he heard this, and he almost fainted: [So you mean, even if you do it all over again, there is no guarantee that they are all normal? 】
The system dare not speak.
Ji Ling laughed back angrily: [Even if the failure of the first mission was my fault, but now they are all reborn, it must not be my fault, right? This is completely different from what we agreed on before. This is a serious violation of integrity. I ask you to give me an explanation! 】
System: [Don't worry, I will report this situation to my superiors and give you an explanation as soon as possible. 】
Ji Ling looked indifferent: [Your words sound very familiar to me. 】
System: [? 】
Ji Ling: [A colleague of my mother bought a house last year, but when they actually took over the house, they found that it did not match the model house, and the developer's original promise was not fulfilled, so they went to the developer to discuss it and asked for They said that the sales manager of the other party replied to her like this every time. 】
System: 【……】
Ji Ling: [The point is, this matter has been going on for a whole year, the banners have been pulled up, the doors have been blocked, and the other party is still prevaricating like this until I die:)]
System: 【……】
Ji Ling sincerely sighed: [So you must not be like this, right? 】
System: […] dare not speak, dare not speak.
……………
Ji Ling fell asleep and woke up in the afternoon of the next day.
Even though he found a reason to run away from Jing Sui in a flash of inspiration yesterday, and then ran away from the system again, his mood was still very low. can not be like this.
No matter whether the system can give him a satisfactory answer or not, he still has to rely on himself to complete the task, and he cannot completely pin his hopes on others. He has to cheer up. Efforts may not have results, but there will be no results without efforts.
If he wants to go home, he can't give up now.
After calming down and thinking about it carefully, although the situation is really bad, he is not completely hopeless, because the real decisive condition for completing the mission is that the protagonist Gongshou loves each other and HE, as long as this goal can be achieved, how the process will actually be. It doesn't matter anymore.
So what if they were all reborn? Rebirth essentially just adds a piece of experience, knowing some things that will happen in the future, it is not a big change, split personality of living people, these people are still themselves in essence, have their own personality and thoughts, and many deep-rooted things will not be caused by rebirth. just changed.
Like a fool, he will not become smart just because he is reborn, and a cruel and evil person will not become kind and compassionate just because he is reborn.
So they hated themselves so much in their previous life, so naturally they wouldn't fall in love with them just because they were reborn once.
The reason why Jing Sui and Brandon treated themselves uncharacteristically was not so much because they liked them, but because they felt guilty. Because they sacrificed their lives to save them in their last life, they felt regret after their death, and they were born again. Afterwards, it was reluctant to say that he wanted to make up for it. After all, he belonged to the decent camp, and he was not so insane.
As for Carlos and Wen Yan, the two villains who are insidious and vicious and disregard human life, even if they are reborn based on their character and temperament, they are probably mostly calculating against themselves. Bad guys will not change their minds and become good people just because they are reborn .
Take a ten thousand step back and say that it doesn't matter whether they feel guilty or full of calculations towards themselves, they are just an insignificant cannon fodder, as long as Jing Sui can love Ning Yu, there is still hope for completing the task!
Thinking of this, Ji Ling finally cheered up a bit, and began to carefully analyze the situation he was facing now.
In the last life, I succeeded in plotting against Ning Yu, the heroes of Jing Sui saved the beauty, and showed their affection in front of the whole people. Because of this incident, I aroused strong dissatisfaction with the nobles from the people. Using such despicable methods in a duel is undoubtedly a violation of the laws of the empire. Jing Sui wanted to punish him in order to calm the anger of the people, but at the critical moment Ning Yu stood up to intercede for him and forgave him generously. He ultimately escaped punishment.
The reason why Ning Yu did this, Ji Ling believes that on the one hand, it is because Ning Yu himself is a bright and broad-minded white lotus persona, not the kind of vicious person who must revenge; on the other hand, it is because he is actually a smart person People, at this time, it is of no benefit to him to kill himself. It is better to accept it as soon as it is good. It will not only win a good reputation, but will not arouse the resentment and resistance of the imperial nobles. Sui didn't have to offend Grand Duke Ji Ting because of him, it can be said that he covered everything.
Kindness and integrity do not mean low EQ——Ning Yu has shown it vividly here.
But this time, the person who was saved by the hero became himself...
Facing Jing Sui who didn't follow common sense at the time, Ji Ling was very broken and desperate, but now that he thinks about it carefully, it's actually not that bad, because Ning Yu is still gaining both fame and fortune. Not only did he win over himself openly, but also because of Jing Sui's protection of himself, he won the sympathy of the people.
If you want to talk about the only change, that is, Jing Sui is the one who is responsible this time...
But it's not a big problem, because Jing Sui's handling at that time was very clever, which greatly calmed the emotions of the people. Even if some people were still dissatisfied, it was not enough to affect the situation. While protecting himself, he let this matter The adverse effects of things are minimized.
So Ning Yu and Jing Sui actually suffered no real loss in this matter.
What really worries and troubles Ji Ling is Jing Sui's attitude towards Ning Yu.
Because he did not hesitate to attack Ning Yu for his own sake!
In your previous life, you were a married couple anyway. If Jing Sui is really reborn and feels guilty about himself, then you should love Ning Yu.
So here comes the problem.
With Jing Sui's rational, calm and indifferent personality, would he ruthlessly attack his lover because of a trace of guilt towards himself?
This doesn't make sense!
And if what he said yesterday is true, then he seems to have put his own importance in front of Ning Yu. Could it be that he died for him once? Impressed, no longer like Ning Yu, but like yourself instead?
No way——
Ji Ling started to panic again when he thought of this, so panicked!
No, definitely not!
With Jing Sui's ruthless character design, the fact that he fell in love with Ning Yu is already the result of the original author's cheating, which is an irresistible force of fate. If Ji Ling hadn't read the original text, he would not believe him. Will really love Ning Yu... So how could such a person fall in love with himself just because he died for him?
It's so easy to like yourself, is he still that ruthless majesty?
Ji Ling was in a mess.
If I knew it would be today, he would never have saved Jing Sui at that time. Anyway, Carlos might not have won if he hadn’t done so... If God gave him another chance, he would just save Jing Sui. Even a dog will not save this heartless dog emperor! (Here refers to the feeling of being unkind to Ning Yu
Ji Ling just thinks about it during the day, at night, about eating, and about sleeping.
Cheer yourself up for a while.
After a while, I was discouraged again.
He looked blank for a while.
Hesitating and struggling for a while.
After thinking about it, I can't come up with a clue. I really can't understand the reason why Jing Sui did this. It seems that there is always something wrong, but I can't think of it. I don't know what I have overlooked... He hates this This kind of person with deep thoughts is hard to fathom!
Because of this change, Ji Ling didn't leave the gate every day, full of worry and confusion about his future.
……………
That night, he sat in his yard as usual, staring at the sky in a daze. The nine shining satellites in the sky reminded him every moment that this was not his world...
Wen Yan walked in from the outside, and immediately saw the pale young man sitting there with a dazed expression, looking up at the sky in a daze, so lonely and lonely.
It's as if he doesn't belong in this world at all.
Bitterness appeared faintly in Wen Yan's eyes. Thinking of what happened that day, his heart felt dull and aching. It's no different from the previous life.
Because the person he loves deeply disdains him and only cares about other people.
Jing Sui seems to have saved Ji Ling, but in fact it was just to protect Ning Yu, so that Ning Yu would not be retaliated for accidentally hurting Ji Ling. He could see this, and many people could see it.
Ji Ling should have seen it too.
So now, how sad should the boy be?
Wen Yan walked over gently, his heart full of pity, his dark eyes gently stared at Ji Ling's face, and whispered: "It's late, why don't you go to rest?"
Ji Ling turned his head and looked at the silver-haired man standing respectfully in front of him.
I originally thought that after he became the speaker, he would stop wasting time trying to please me. In his last life, he was always perfunctory to himself. A sense of presence.
Because of his low mood, Ji Ling didn't bother to find words to run on Wen Yan. After thinking about it, he was also a reborn guy. Feeling helpless and at a loss, he couldn't help asking him the doubts that had accumulated in his heart for a long time. , Said: "Do you think His Majesty might like me?"
Wen Yan looked at the young man's pale and delicate face, and in the night, the helplessness and fragility in those pierced eyes could be clearly seen, and asked him this question so lonely... Wen Yan felt pain and pity in his heart, and he could hardly bear to speak.
He knew very well that it was impossible for Jing Sui to like Ji Ling.
Ling was infatuated in the last century, but he couldn't exchange Jing Sui's look back. That man has no heart at all, and he doesn't know how to love someone.
But how could he say this cruel answer to these eyes that were almost shattered?
Wen Yan was silent for a long time, and slowly said: "Your Majesty will definitely like you."
When Ji Ling heard this, his face was almost ashen. I just want to hear the answer that suits my heart, and I don't want to hear anything else!
With tears in his eyes, he stubbornly refused to listen: "You lied to me! He won't like me!"
Wen Yan looked at him heartbroken. His beloved young man was originally a confident, bright and proud person. He is the most noble prince in the world, and he should be loved by everyone...but now For a person, say such self-abandoned words.
How deep was the injury that made him so desperate?
Wen Yan slowly clenched the hand hanging by his side, and suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Ji Ling, raised his eyes to stare into Ji Ling's eyes, opened his thin lips slightly, and made a hoarse voice: "If he doesn't Will like you, then you...can you stop liking him?"
As long as you say no, I will never let you go.
Ji Ling looked into Wen Yan's eyes. In the man's dark eyes, there was an extremely complex and gloomy color. If a single word is wrong, it will release the imprisoned demon...
Ji Ling shivered subconsciously.
I just want to hear you say that he won't like me, but you throw the question back at me and scare me! Sure enough, it is impossible to have a pleasant chat with a big villain like you!
Ji Ling, who didn't dare to break the human design, lowered his eyes sadly, and said with a sob: "I, but I can't help but like him..."
When Wen Yan heard these words, the cluster of flames deep in his eyes seemed to be extinguished by something cold, leaving only a piece of ashes, bleak and dull.
The corners of his lips raised slightly, revealing a sarcastic arc, as if mocking his wishful thinking.
After a while, he closed his eyes and opened them again. In the black phoenix eyes, there was only a thick black that could not reveal a trace of light. He gently took Ji Ling's hand and said softly: "I will help you!" of."
Ji Ling looked at him blankly.
Wen Yan stared at him deeply, his hoarse voice was thickened by the darkness of night, and he said word by word like a promise: "As long as it is your wish, I will help you achieve it."
In the last life, I was selfish and longed to possess you by despicable means.
In this life, I only want you to be happy.
It doesn't even matter if it pushes you towards someone else.
