Chapter 453 The Darkening Ended Before It Even Began
Lu Wensheng suddenly raised his head and unexpectedly met Liu Jiqian's eyes - those eyes that were once filled with stars now only contained bottomless pain and a heart-wrenching emptiness, as if the soul had been taken away, leaving only a body filled with despair.
What the hell is going on?! Lu Wensheng's heart skipped a beat, and a chill ran down his spine. He was instantly terrified by this sudden question about the "original work," and his mind went blank!
Before Lu Wensheng could recover from this shocking information that could overturn everything, Liu Jiqian's cold hand had already grabbed his wrist.
Liu Jiqian took Lu Wensheng's hand and touched his own unique face.
When he felt the delicate and cool touch, Lu Wensheng felt his heart tremble with fear.
"They... all like my face..." Liu Jiqian's voice was like a ghostly whisper, his hollow gaze fixed on Lu Wensheng, as if to penetrate his soul. "A Sheng... likes it too... right? Do you like me as a person... or... just this face?"
"Of course it's because of you! Liu Jiqian, wake up!" Lu Wensheng's voice suddenly rose, with unprecedented panic and anxiety, his heart beating wildly in his chest, almost bursting out!
"Oh?" The corners of Liu Jiqian's mouth pulled out a twisted, almost cruel arc, and he stared at him sinisterly, as if admiring his panic, "Then... what if this face is gone? Scratched... ruined... will you still like it?" The fingertips of his other free hand actually rose slowly, with a creepy seriousness, hovering beside his smooth and flawless cheek, as if he was going to scratch it fiercely in the next second!
"Liu Jiqian!" Lu Wensheng's voice was completely distorted by extreme fear. He suddenly turned his hand and tightly grasped Liu Jiqian's wrist, which was about to commit suicide. His knuckles turned white, and his heart seemed to be tightly grasped by an invisible hand, making it impossible to breathe.
"Isn't it good?" Liu Jiqian's voice was light and fluttery, with a heartbreaking numbness and paranoia, "This face... is a disaster... It's original sin..."
He spoke with a sinister and resolute tone, as if he really wanted to destroy this "root of evil" completely.
However, deep down in his heart, there was a huge fear - in fact, he didn't dare to gamble at all.
He was afraid that if he lost this "chip" that was the only thing that could attract and retain the light before his eyes, he would really... be left with nothing and fall into eternal darkness.
He was overwhelmed by the malicious intent that instigated him and gnawed at his sanity, and every word he spoke was only hurting himself.
Threats to harm yourself only work on people who care about you.
It is fearlessness, it is a secret expectation and joy.
"Weiyun, please don't hurt yourself, okay? What does this have to do with you?"
What greeted Liu Jiqian was a warm embrace and tears of heartache.
The warm, salty and moist touch, like the hottest magma, instantly burned through Liu Jiqian's heart that was frozen by evil spirit and despair - it was tears, Lu Wensheng's tears!
This realization was like a thunderclap, instantly splitting open the sinister shell with self-destructive tendencies that had been built up by the erosion of demonic energy and the impact of chaotic memories.
The deliberately maintained, morbidly paranoid expression on his face was like a glass mask hit by a sledgehammer, cracking and peeling off inch by inch.
A huge panic, like a cold tide, instantly swept through all his senses, replacing those dark whispers and twisted malice.
Lu Wensheng... cried? How could it be... he actually made Ah Sheng cry?
This was more impactful than any sharp accusation or fierce resistance, and made Liu Jiqian feel suffocated.
He had never seen Lu Wensheng cry in front of others.
Lu Wensheng, who was always tough and calm, as if he could shoulder all the burdens, now shed tears because of his almost frivolous threat.
He felt like he was an unforgivable bastard!
The root of his harsh words and threats of self-destruction was nothing more than a twisted way of wanting to confirm his own uniqueness when he was being invaded by malice.
He longed to see Lu Wensheng express his unique emotions for him that were beyond ordinary people - whether it was extreme fear or extreme anger, as long as it proved that he was "different" in Lu Wensheng's heart and was worth keeping.
Even if it means hurting yourself in the most stupid and unbearable way to test it.
This despicable behavior of using self-destruction to seek attention has forced people into this situation!
He is such a heinous bastard!
Just when Liu Jiqian was overwhelmed by the surging regret and even forgot to retract his fingertips that were hanging on his cheek, Lu Wensheng's warm lips, with salty tears, gently pressed against his tense neck.
This soothing kiss was like a stone dropped into stagnant water, stirring up ripples in the deepest part of Liu Jiqian's heart that even the demonic energy could not completely freeze.
Most of the malice that was gnawing at my sanity seemed to be instantly burned away and dispelled by the scalding tears and warm embrace.
Feeling the suppressed sobs of the person in his arms and the wetness on the side of his neck, Liu Jiqian felt that nothing else mattered anymore——
Those chaotic fragments of memory, those fears from "another ending", those questions about "why there is no you"... in the face of Lu Wensheng's real tears, all became pale and powerless and disappeared.
In fact, he never felt that the love he gave to Lu Wensheng was not enough. As long as Lu Wensheng would keep her eyes on him for one more second, even if it was only one second, she would never question his love as deep as the sea.
What he wanted was never the same love from Lu Wensheng.
Because often, a casual glance from Lu Wensheng is enough to make him willing to go through fire and water and risk his life for her thousands of times.
The huge heartache overwhelmed all the confused thoughts.
Liu Jiqian, with an almost pious attitude, held up his moonlight and kissed away the tide from the corners of his eyes.
When his fingertips felt the hot wetness, his heart twitched.
"Don't cry... Ah Sheng, don't cry..." Liu Jiqian's voice was low and hoarse, carrying the fatigue of surviving the disaster and the deep pity. The previous sinister and paranoid aura was gone, leaving only indulgence and helplessness in his eyes.
"I was wrong... I was the jerk. I'll listen to you, won't hurt myself, and won't say that kind of nonsense again... Okay?"
Lu Wensheng seemed to have known some things that would happen in the future very early on. Liu Jiqian was not unaware of his foresighted plans and precise layouts.
However, at this moment, looking at the person in his arms crying for him, Liu Jiqian felt a bitter confusion in his heart - this person who seemed to understand him best and had insight into the trajectory of his destiny, seemed to have never truly understood his obscure feelings.
The cautious night concealed so many things that could not be expressed in words, and his unexpressed thoughts were hidden in the silent evening breeze.
He thought his feelings had already been made clear, like the brightest star in the night sky.
But Ah Sheng...
Liu Jiqian sighed silently in his heart, with a hint of sweet helplessness and hidden grievance: Lu Wensheng, I hate that you are a piece of wood.
Even in the virtual space, I was expecting a love-hate relationship drama, and I was already nervously clutching my handkerchief, holding my breath and trembling with fear: "???"
It watched the scene in front of it take such a dramatic turn, from tense to tender, that the entire data stream crashed for a moment.
A few seconds later, the system emitted a silent, electronic wail with a huge gap: It had indeed overestimated the power and persistence of Liu Jiqian's dark transformation! This turn of events was too sudden!
But it is very Liu Jiqian - he is such an unprincipled person towards Lu Wensheng.
