Chapter 539 (2/2)

“Strong but gentle…” Minox mumbled. “Not every woman is able to do that…”

“Yeah…” An image of ThornyRose flashed through Ye Cang’s mind and he nodded. “As the city mayor, you have no choice.”

Minox smiled faintly. “I’m sorry for my rude actions.”

Ye Cang shook his hand and said humbly. “It’s all good. It’s all good. It’s normal that you can’t hold it back after seeing my handsome face.”

Minox felt weird. He did sound humble but he did not seem to mean it. She then rolled her eyes while smirking and rested her head on Ye Cang’s shoulder, not giving him a chance to leave. “Can you lend me your shoulder?”

Ye Cang gradually nodded. I bet she was terrified. The perverted face of the beastman back then seemed like he was up to no good.

The sky was getting darker and darker. Minox’s consistent breath made Ye Cang sigh. I guess she fell asleep. Ye Cang then covered her with his wolf cloak and continued to drink his wine, staring at the faraway sea. Women? They are selfish and weak.

A few days later, Minox had thoroughly investigated the rebellion and stabilized the situation.

Ye Can and the others analyzed the map and decided to sail south to the Endless Swamp. As there were a lot of relics and ruins, it was worth exploring. After much preparation, Minox sent them away.

“Brother, I feel that you and the city mayor Minox were quite close. What did you guys do that night?” Zhang Zhengxiong turned to see Minox still standing there looking at them. She seemed to have no intentions of going back.

“We talked about our life…” Ye Cang said softly.

“Brother Lil’White, don’t tell me you have an affair ya.” Lin Le laughed. With his hands, he made a circle and used his finger as a stick, poking in and out of the circle. His action was creepy but seemed innocent at the same time. Everyone stared at them in a strange way. Ye Cang then immediately smacked his head. “Don’t talk bullshit!”

Holding his head, Lin Le pouted. On the other side, Little Ye Tian was happy that Lin Le got scolded by Ye Cang. Lin Le then turned to look at her, thinking of how to prank her.

FrozenCloud was speechless because the team leader had crushed many girls’ hopes. Nana and Sister Rose were the best examples. It was even obvious in game, the team leader would often do some weird and pervert stuff but he also made people felt like they are distanced from him.

However, Wu Na hoped that Ye Cang could always be like this. At least this meant that Ye Cang could still accept others. This was because she felt that even though Ye Cang may seem empty on the inside due to the snowy white appearance of his, he was actually occupied. She realized the dead were always better than the ones who were still alive because they had lived at those wonderful moments which one could not go back. She hoped that she could be the one that Ye Cang truly hugs and treats like a lover but not a friend or family.

Seeing Wu Na staring at Ye Cang’s back, Zhang Zhengxiong noticed the sorrow written all over her face. Brother, how long are you going to be like this? Sister had died many years ago. Continuing to be like this does not only hurt yourself but also Nana and even Sister Rose. It is time to let go.

Zhang Zhengxiong had the urge to say his thoughts out but he just could not do so. He then recalled the day when Ye Cang came back after he went missing. Ye Cang cried like a child after doing something wrong. “A’Xiong, I’m sorry. I didn’t know things would turn out like this. I just wanted to revive her. I’m sorry…”

Even though he did not know what happened, after seeing his brother in that situation, his heart sank a little more. He had lost his sister, he could not afford to lose a brother. Without asking the reason, he quietly accompanied his brother to bury his sister. His brother’s love for his sister, he knew best. If that day…it would be great. We could play games together, go on an adventure together and do a lot more things together. But, unfortunately, there were no what-ifs
