The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities

Chapter 907: Chapter 907: Xue Ruo Admits Her Mistake

Even if it’s just quietly watching him, can she stay, can she...

She really wants to ask him why, why must choices be made, why can’t they pretend as if nothing happened... What are those people worth that he would do this for them... But she doesn’t dare.

She truly doesn’t dare to speak; she fears every word she says will make him more disappointed in her.

So she cannot, she cannot say anything, she can only look at him with such struggle, unable and unwilling to make a decision.

”Master...” In the end, she could only cry out those two words hoarsely, helplessly.

Lianwu looked at her; he knew she must be thinking why he had to treat her this way.

She indeed was wrong, but this wrong started because of him.

If They could pretend none of this happened, pretend she did nothing wrong, couldn’t there be a happily-ever-after ending?

But it’s impossible.

He admits, having raised Bai Xueruo for years, whether as master-servant or mentor-protege, there was always a bond between them. But she should never have contradicted his wishes to hurt someone he did not want to harm.

From the moment he chose to accept the Blood Covenant, from the moment he held Xiao Xue in his arms, Xiao Xue was no longer his pet but his responsibility.

Similarly, he will not harm her.

Nor allow anyone to harm her.

Just like his current way of making Bai Xueruo choose.

Lianwu suddenly had a Blood Talisman in his palm.

Bai Xueruo stared at that Blood Talisman with horror, wanting to ask him what he intended, wishing to plead for more time to consider, but at that moment, Lianwu reversed his hand and thrust the talisman into his own body.

”No—” Bai Xueruo almost screamed, rushing forward to throw herself on Lianwu, holding him tightly.

She kneeled on the ground, clutching his legs tightly.

Lianwu didn’t fall, nor did he move.

Bai Xueruo’s tears were like a bursting dam; she shook her head desperately: ”Don’t, don’t, don’t do this. I was wrong, it was my fault, Master, Xue Ruo knows she was wrong, she really knows she was wrong...”

She was wrong, truly wrong, she shouldn’t have defied him, she should have lived well, she should have lived as he once told her, happily discovering the world’s beauty, helping those in need, not believing the nonsense about the Dragon being inherently fierce, she was supposed to be a kind person...

She was wrong, truly wrong... If she listened, if she had listened to him, then now perhaps, perhaps when she finally waited for him, welcomed this reunion after thousands of years, wouldn’t face such an impossible choice but rather joyfully weep from being reunited, even as a servant, at least she might have a chance to stay by his side...

But now she has no qualifications.

The one she loved most deeply, the one she persistently loved and waited for thousands of years, why, why when at last they reunite, why face this ending...

Can she, can she have another chance, just one chance...

She really would listen to him, she really would.
