"What happened to the boy afterwards?"
Chenle stopped for a while. Savoring a sip from his now cold drink.
Xiao Yue's eyes widen.
"What?"
"What?"
I'm puzzled by the ending of his story. Was it intentional for him to tell topic of "two sides"?
Why did he told me such thing. This isn't what i expected from the boy that smiled sweetly just a moment ago.
"U-uh why did you tell me this story, who is the boy anyway?"
He smiled.
He reach for a golden rope on his side of the wall.
A few seconds later Sebastian walks in with a new warm cup of Chenle's drink. Which i don't even know what inside.
"May i serve you some tea My Lady?" Sebastian asked me.
I nod.
After Sebastian walks out the door i turned my head to Chenle again.
"So?"
"Wait, so are you emotionally unstable now?"
A pang of unknown feelings flew over my chest.
"I still don't know why that would be something for you to tell all of those."
"Would he harm me in any way?"
"Um, just before we continue, who is your father exactly?"
I am beyond shocked. The fact that he said something so nauseating without changing his expression.
A realization just hit me.
Oh, no.
So that means Chenle's guardian killed his father?
By stabbing him so many times that-
I can't continue.
But Chenle said as if its was his guardian's preference.
So did he killed people that way?
"So, you are saying that you don't want to kill people, its just what your guardian wants to do?
He chuckled.
For a few moments i was petrified.
His wry laugh isn't the one he claimed to have. Is he acting now? What just happened?
"What do you mean?"
"What?"
What did he meant by playing?
Wait.
Did he lie about him being innocent at the 127 base?
Of course not...
Right?
"Did you lie to me at the 127 base earlier?"
