Chapter 649: You Can't Be Together Anymore
Living, for him, was pain in itself.
Might as well be dead, and find complete liberation.
Su Chen nodded, sighed, and said, "I understand how you feel, but what Chu Hongyun has suffered is no less than yours. She doesn't want to kill you; she just wants to bear that kind of pain alone…"
Chu Hongyun just wants to bear that kind of pain alone…
Clearly, the man couldn't understand Su Chen's words.
Everyone stands on a different ground.
In the man's eyes, he was the biggest victim.
Therefore, he could never comprehend Chu Hongyun's feelings.
After all, the current Chu Hongyun was living in a luxurious manor, driving a luxury car.
So much better than others, by countless times.
"Do it…" The man closed his eyes in agony.
"Want one?" Su Chen offered a cigarette to the man.
The man started to smoke.
But because he hadn't smoked before, he choked.
The man choked until tears streamed down his face.
"Brother, take good care of Xin'er. She has lost her mother; don't deprive her of a father's love too," Su Chen patted the man on the shoulder.
The man looked puzzled, "You're not going to kill me?"
"I was prepared to, but… I know what it feels like to be without parental love," Su Chen sighed deeply.
"But, my existence is meaningless…" The man said with a gloomy expression.
A man who has lost his manhood,
Indeed, that is a huge blow.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "Maybe I can help you, but I need you to promise me one thing."
Hearing Su Chen's words, the man showed no emotion.
Because how could Su Chen possibly have that ability?
Seeing the man's disbelief, Su Chen didn't say much and turned to leave.
"Wait a moment…"
Although the man didn't believe Su Chen had such ability,
What if?
What if Su Chen could restore his manly powers?
A person who has reached the brink of despair doesn't want to let go of any hope.
"Changed your mind?" Su Chen asked.
"Can you really…"
"About an eighty percent chance," Su Chen said.
Su Chen wasn't entirely sure.
Since merging with Black Stone, his body had undergone tremendous changes.
Even if half of his body was blown away, it could grow back.
Then there was that time at the Zhuang Clan.
The Big Landlord had his internal organs pierced, but Su Chen used his blood to make him normal again.
That is, his blood had already gained a strong Healing Ability.
After many trials,
The results confirmed his speculation.
His blood might be able to resurrect the man.
Of course, there was no hundred percent certainty.
But the chances were definitely high.
An eighty percent chance!
That is a very high probability.
Not just an eighty percent chance.
Even if it were only eight percent, or even zero point eight percent,
The man wanted to try.
"Alright, I agree to your terms!" the man said through gritted teeth.
Su Chen said, "You've agreed without hearing my conditions?"
"As long as I can be restored, I will pay whatever it takes!" The man was resolute.
This showed his determination to recover.
Su Chen nodded and said, "I have two conditions. First, you can't let anyone know you've recovered for three months."
"Okay, I agree!" The man agreed without hesitation.
This condition was too easy for him.
Actually, not many people knew about his downfall.
"The second condition, you cannot be with Chu Hongyun."
Upon hearing Su Chen's second condition, the man was slightly stunned.
Then, a bitter smile appeared on his face, "I understand..."
Clearly, Su Chen's appearance with Chu Hongyun today meant their relationship was far from ordinary.
Does he love Chu Hongyun?
Of course, he does.
Very much so.
But the deeper the love, the deeper the hate.
Why should he suffer such pain, while Chu Hongyun gets to lead an enviable life?
Besides,
Even if he stopped hating Chu Hongyun,
They couldn't be together.
If the Boss found out, it would only mean a dead end for him.
"No, you don't understand. I'm telling you not to be with Chu Hongyun, not because I want her for myself, but because... you don't have the ability to protect her," Su Chen's words were blunt.
The reason he asked the man not to let anyone know for three months was that Su Chen needed to rescue the instructor within three months, and also to deal with the Boss.
But just because the Boss was out of the picture didn't mean the man could be with Chu Hongyun.
Clearly, Chu Hongyun's beauty had reached a tempting level.
Any man would covet her.
And Chu Hongyun's husband simply didn't have the power to shield this beauty.
Without the Boss, other men would appear.
Better for Su Chen to have her.
He believed he had the strength.
Of course, the final outcome would depend on Chu Hongyun's choice.
If Chu Hongyun chose to leave, he would let her go.
If Chu Hongyun decided to follow him, he would ensure Chu Hongyun would have a better life than she did now.
Without the ability to protect her...
The man closed his eyes in agony.
It seemed very true.
To be with Chu Hongyun, he had really given a lot.
They had known each other since their student days.
He had pursued Chu Hongyun for many years, and finally, his sincerity moved her.
They married and had a child.
He thought they were about to start a happy life.
But it changed because of a banquet.
Who wouldn't want to show off such a wife?
People have vanity, and so do men.
Unfortunately, it was that banquet that caught the Boss's eye on Chu Hongyun.
Then he directly took action to snatch her away.
Without any disguise.
The man still vividly remembered what the Boss said to him at the time.
"Give me your woman, or die."
How simple and brutal.
He naturally wouldn't agree.
Unfortunately, in front of the Boss, he was like an ant.
What he didn't understand was why the Boss didn't kill him.
Of course, Su Chen wouldn't tell him that the Boss didn't kill you was because he liked that...
"Alright, I can agree to this second condition, but I have a condition too..." The man pondered for a moment and said through gritted teeth.
