Chapter 503 - Between Me and the World, You Would Choose the World (1/2)
Suddenly, the lady looked at her. Even though they were standing so far apart, Feng Tianlan could feel how cold and distant her gaze was.
The look in her eyes, was it really meant for her?
Feng Tianlan could not be sure. When she looked closely, she realized that the lady’s gaze went straight past her and was fixated on someone who was coming from behind her. She turned around and saw a well-built man walk slowly in her direction. His gaze was likewise focused on the lady on the stairs.
The man wore a purple gold robe and had a devious but charming demeanor. When he looked up, Feng Tianlan frowned. “Why can’t I see his face clearly?”
The face of the man before her seemed to be covered by a thick layer of mist so that she could only make out the silhouette of his face. Even so, she could tell that he was a handsome man.
“Yun’er,” the man called out gently, looking at her. However, he walked straight through Feng Tianlan’s body.
Was she an invisible observer of a scene from another world or was she actually dreaming?
The man walked past her and climbed up the staircase slowly. After some thought, Feng Tianlan decided to follow him. She watched the two as if she was watching a play. Even though she was standing very near to the lady, she could not see her face either.
“You really want to exchange me for that thing?” The lady turned around and looked at the man, her voice full of bitterness but also some desperate hope.
The man extended his hands and reached out to hug her, but she avoided him. His hands froze in mid-air for a moment before he retracted them. His voice was not angry. “Yun’er, I will come and bring you home.”
The lady laughed coldly and said with sarcasm, “Between me and the world, you would choose the world every time.”
From these words, Feng Tianlan sensed the bitterness in the lady’s heart and heard the sound of heartbreak, so much so that even she felt depressed. Indeed, between the world and the woman, men had always chosen the world. Who would ever choose the beautiful lady when they could have the world instead?
“When I have the world, you will naturally be mine.” The man’s voice was full of confidence, “Moreover, I will only sent you there temporarily. You will not to stay by his side forever.”
