Chapter 2740 (1/2)

Chapter 861 - Guilt!

Li Ruo Nan bit her lips and clenched her fists tightly. Due to overexertion, her nails dug into her hands, but she didn't notice at all.

At this moment, her heart surged with guilt.

Right now, there was only one thought in her mind — she had injured Ji Feng!

When she thought of Ji Feng's gaze which was filled with disappointment and helplessness, Li Ruo Nan bit her lips even harder. She could almost imagine how sad he must have been when she stopped him and even said that she would arrest him.

Because from his disappointed eyes, it could be seen that before this, he should have always trusted her. Perhaps, he believed that she would definitely be able to distinguish between right and wrong, and not be too stubborn or impulsive, and understand her.

However, he didn't do so. Instead, he always thought that Ji Feng was acting on his own whim, and he even questioned him again and again. Perhaps it was exactly this kind of behavior that would wear down his trust in her over and over again.

Until now, Ji Feng had still trusted him. However, this last bit of trust had been personally destroyed by him.

Hence, Ji Feng's eyes revealed an expression of extreme disappointment.

Other than disappointment, there was also a trace of helplessness in Ji Feng's eyes. Thinking of this, Li Ruo Nan felt even more uncomfortable in her heart.

… …. In the end, even when he had questioned Ji Feng, Ji Feng had treated him with tolerance. It was also for this reason that Ji Feng had been so helpless when he had tried to stop him.

Because he had always tolerated her!

Otherwise, with Ji Feng's status and the powers he possessed, how could he have been able to stop him? Why should he care about his own opinions?

All of this was because he respected and was more tolerant of himself.

However, because of his stubbornness and his prejudice against Ji Feng, he had personally destroyed everything!

Not only did she hurt his heart, she also made him feel extremely helpless. It was only because she didn't believe in him and didn't understand him … For some reason, Li Ruo Nan's heart suddenly ached. Especially when she thought of Ji Feng's expression at that moment. Because of her disbelief and stubbornness, she must have made Ji Feng feel very lonely, right?

Thinking about how Ji Feng didn't even look back when he left, that lonely back, Li Ruo Nan felt an unbearable pain in her heart.

She bit her lips, unable to utter a single word.

After a long while, Li Ruo Man slowly s.h.i.+fted her gaze. However, she coincidentally saw a cold smile on Bai Zhu's face. He was looking at her with hostility and disdain. She couldn't help but laugh bitterly in her heart. She had really done wrong!

”Now you understand?!”

Bai Zhu looked at Li Ruo Nan whose face was already slightly pale, and couldn't help but feel relieved in his heart, especially thinking about how Li Ruo Nan used to treat Ji Feng, Bai Zhu felt even more relieved, ”Young Master Ji has told you more than once that he doesn't even put Fan Jian in his eyes, and that he doesn't think of him as any sort of mortal enemy, but you just didn't believe it!”

Li Ruo Nan bit her lips, but couldn't say a word.

Bai Zhu laughed disdainfully, ”You are the only one who treats that kind of monster as a treasure. But in our eyes, what does that hypocrite count as? Would Young Master Ji target him? How ridiculous! ”

Bai Zhu, who had been by Ji Feng's side the entire time, naturally understood his thoughts. She knew that Ji Feng truly did not place Fan Jianyuan in his eyes, otherwise, why would he have delayed until now to capture Fan Jianyuan?

To put it bluntly, with Young Master Ji's current status and ident.i.ty, Fan Jianyuan was not even worthy of carrying his shoes!

Others might not be clear about it, but Bai Zhu clearly knew that Ji Feng's current status was partly because of his clan, but it was mostly because of his own hard work.

He had risked himself time and time again, even turning the tide. He had pulled the family, which had been under tremendous pressure from multiple attacks, out of the vortex. Just this point alone had earned him a lot of praise!

Even if Ji Feng was the second generation pillar of the family, it was not certain that he would be able to achieve such a feat. However, Ji Feng had done it beautifully, shocking countless people!

Then looking at Fan Jianyuan, what did he do?

Other than having a handsome face, he had nothing else. The only thing he had was the t.i.tle of ”Returning to the Sea Elite”. However, the reality was that this t.i.tle was quite ironic.

Returning to the Sea Elites?

It was obviously a monster from the Returning Sea!

”...”

Li Ruo Man opened her mouth, but didn't know what to say, nor did she know how to refute, because although Bai Zhu's words didn't sound good, they were the truth.
