Chapter 474: Broken (1/2)

”Syni, I'm sorry for your loss.” The two were already in the space traveling to get to their destination. There was deafening silence so Jin Rou decided to break the ice, ”Grandmother didn't want to harm your family. She might be sly, but she will never wish for her friends to be hurt. Especially a family close to her.”

It was true. Yanlu Rou miscalculated and that lead into a grave mistake that couldn't be undone. She just wanted a help from the family, that's why she didn't mention the arrival of the enemies immediately. After all, if she said that the devils would be attacking them, the entire Su family would back off as soon as possible. They didn't want to be implicated, and it's not their business to meddle with.

”Jin, it's no use apologizing on her behalf.” Syni Su shook her head, ”I have already forgiven Grandma Rou, but I don't think my family will. Mother is so precious to the family that they are willing to sacrifice everything for her. So her death is excruciating and they want to exact revenge.”

”Revenge?” Jin Rou was startled. If the Su family is going to push trouble on them, wouldn't it lead to needless people getting hurt? In fact, someone might die.

”Yes. Ancestor Su wants to attack the Rou family. But my father stopped him. It will be useless to exact revenge and it will just add more casualties to the family.” Syni Su sighed, ”But I don't think Ancestor Su will back down just like that. He is known for being a troublemaker in the past, and that habit didn't change even a bit. So I won't be surprised if he will come and see your family one of these days.”

Jin Rou didn't comment on this. But if ever that ancestor dared to hurt his family, he wouldn't mind killing one of the Su's. His family was his reverse scale that people shouldn't touch or else they would face genocide with no chance of revival.

Feeling the small amount of killing intent being leaked, Syni Su got nervous. She immediately smiled and said, ”I'm just kidding. Ancestor Su is a decisive man. He will not create mistakes, not at all.”

”I just hope that's the case, Syni.” Jin Rou smiled too and said, ”I don't want our families to be on each other's throats. It will be suffocating for the both of us.”

”Indeed. Though our families are a bit distant to each other, at least there is still the respect we usually have.” Syni Su agreed and there was an obvious change in ger expression, ”But with the current complications right now, I don't think that my dream will still come true.”

Jin Rou didn't know what to say. He knew what this dream she was saying, so he couldn't help but feel a bit broken and sad inside. Of course, no one could see his expression as it was hidden well. He didn't ask yet, but he was already rejected. What should he feel right now about that?

”I'll be stopping here.” Syni Su said and opened a gate, ”This will be the nearest place to our home, so yeah. Goodbye, Jin.”

Jin Rou seemed wanted to say something. But he stopped himself and suppressed what he was feeling, ”Goodbye, Syni. I wish to see you next time, you're already wearing a true smile.”

Syni Su widened her eyes when she heard these words. In any way, she didn't expect to hear such a soft and sincere voice from him. She didn't know why, but she was thinking that this will be the last time she could see him, and that thought broke her heart unwillingly.
