C179 (1/2)

Time slowly passed, regardless of whether it was Lin Lang or the mysterious organization, they did not move an inch, which made Tang Xiaotang a little disappointed. She had thought that Lin Lang would be unreconciled after her failure that day, but in the past few days, she had been monitoring her and realised that she did not contact the organization backing her. If not for knowing her identity beforehand, Tang Xiaotang would have already fooled her.

He had stayed in this world for a few months already, and other than messing up the situation with Mu Lian, he had not made any other progress.

Even if she went out to monitor Lin Lang every day, and even if the patients she communicated with were investigated thoroughly, she didn't find anything.

Even Mu Lian could tell that she was not in a good mood. One day, when Tang Xiaotang came back, he was surprised to find that he was not holding her computer and typing code, but was sitting by the window, looking outside.

Because of his personality, Mu Lian hated being close to the windowsill. Tang Xiaotang had tried to dissuade him before, and she had also used the enchanting scenery outside to persuade him. However, Mu Lian's answer was:

”Don't you think that's not safe? What if he falls down? ”

Tang Xiaotang was speechless, and did not try to persuade him anymore.

”What are you looking at?” she asked curiously.

His shoulders moved, but he did not look back. A heavy voice sounded, and it carried a sense of discomfort, ”Yun Yun, don't you... ”Do you hate me?”

”Why do you think that?” Tang Xiaotang felt that she was unable to keep up with his train of thought …

”But you're not happy. Do you think I'm boring?” He could feel that she was in a bad mood. Sometimes, she would feel listless when chatting with him. Furthermore, she would always run away … Was she really going to leave him?

Tang Xiaotang was startled, she understood what he meant, she must have been in a bad mood the past few days. However, she felt that her emotions weren't too exposed … Or could it be that Mu Lian was really too sensitive?

”No, you're very good. It's just my problem …” Tang Xiaotang sighed: ”I'm thinking, who created me? But why did he create me and then abandon me? ”

”Maybe he has a reason …” He paused, trying to comfort her, even though he didn't believe it.

”But in any case, since he created me, shouldn't he be responsible? If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't even know where I would be right now. ”

Mu Lian had single-handedly created a Lian Yun, but honestly, he did not care how great of a disaster the Lian Yun would bring to the people. He only knew that the Lian Yun was a failure, an existence that would be abandoned.

To put it bluntly, he did not believe that he was responsible for the Lian Yun. Therefore, after he was imprisoned, when the higher-ups had suggested that if he was willing to cooperate with them in repairing the disaster brought by the Lian Yun, he chose to reject them flatly.

Of course, the main responsibility did not lie with him. But at that time, if he had chosen to reveal the secrets of the Lian Yun and destroy them together with the people, the Lian Yun would not have caused such a serious consequence and he would not have ended up like that in the end.

It was because of the flaw in his personality. Mu Lian didn't want to get too close to anyone, nor did he want anyone to get close to him. He would rather be imprisoned for his entire life, and spend all his life in that tiny prison, than to give his all and make up for the mistakes of the Lian Yun.

He did not fulfill his duty as Son of the World.

So later on he would commit suicide in prison, or, in other words, the punishment of the rules.

He had failed his own talent.

It's a pity.
