Chapter 198 - What Kind of Person is He (8) (2/2)
She had always thought she was different in Ruan Zeyan’s eyes. In the end, all those differences had been swept away just by the word servant.
Mandy caressed her hand that had been scalded by the soup, it really hurt…
On the ward, Ruan Zeyan had just finished all of the porridge that Ling Tianya had cooked. When Ling Tianya was cleaning everything up, Du Gang knocked on the door and came in. He saw Ling Tianya that was packing up, and bit back the words that he was preparing to say.
“Just speak your mind.” Ruan Zeyan opened up calmly.
“Boss, the men refused to talk, and only kept begging for a quick death.” Du Gang talked as though that was nothing special. All of their methods to force words out of someone were used, and the men were clearly trained in that. They refused to spill a single word or name. To hold on and refuse to say a single word after so long meant they were either super loyal, or they had something precious to them held by the people employing them.
Ling Tianya didn’t have to guess to know that Du Gang was referring to the hitmen that a.s.saulted Ruan Zeyan in A City.
“Then we’ll grant their wishes.” Ruan Zeyan’s voice was cold, devoid of any human emotions, as though what he was getting rid of weren’t human lives.
Ruan Zeyan’s words stilled Ling Tianya’s hands, the bowl in her hand knocking into the thermos, a dull thunk ringing out. Back when Ruan Zeyan had wanted to keep them alive, Ling Tianya knew what he was intending to do.
Ruan Zeyan’s dark eyes looked at Ling Tianya, his pale lips calling out to her, “Come here.” Ling Tianya put down the items in her hands to go closer, the man raised his hands to hold onto her arm, bringing her into his embrace, his words dragging and lilting. “Do you think I’m cruel?”
Ling Tianya looked at the Ruan Zeyan’s face, pale from the lack of blood. She then looked at Ruan Zeyan’s body, weak from the injury and the surgery, and she shook her head. “No.”
The man hugged her tightly to his side, his heartbeat clear to her ears.
