Chapter 209 The Guardian Gao Fei (2/2)
“That’s what I should do,” Gao Fei said calmly, “this is my responsibility.”
“No, you have no responsibility now. Actually, according to your force and position, you should not have been so depressed.”
Gao Fei said indifferently, “As for me, the people who cultivate methods of killing people, there is no downfall. Living in the glint and flash of cold steel is a kind of practice, so is hiding in the city.”
Maggie sighed and asked, “Brother Fei, later on… what do you plan to do?”
“I’ll protect you from harm, grow up with you, and I will not leave until I can entrust you to a reliable person.”
Maggie said quietly, “That’s all for me.”
“It’s my responsibility,” Gao Fei said with a serious face. “After I can hand you over to a reliable man one day, I will find that man and get back all that I lost.”
Maggie shook her head and said, “Brother Fei, that’s what I wanted to talk to you about. Those are all gone. Vengeance has a way of rebounding upon oneself. Even if you kill them and kill more people, what can you change? What’s more, I don’t want to see you take any more risks. I don’t want you to pay more for my family. Brother Fei, do you know? Since arriving here, I’ve had a very happy life. I can feel that you actually live happily.
“From small to large, I was like a spoiled little princess. I always got what I wanted, but I never got the ordinary life I wanted. During this period, I have experienced the happiness of ordinary people’s life. I cherish this kind of day very much. I hope I can live like this forever…
“Brother Fei, do you know? Sometimes, I thought that I would never leave you, never leave Sister Xiaoxiao, and never leave all of them. I want to accompany them to live happily.”
“You can get it if you want.” Gao Fei could feel Maggie’s happiness that never existed before. He couldn’t help sighing with emotion. “No one can destroy what you want.”
Maggie laughed and said, “I know you’re good to me, but you don’t know that I really regard you as my brother. You’re always serious every day and don’t smile in front of anyone, but I know you have a warm heart beneath that cold exterior.”
Gao Fei was surprised and said, “Do you think that a man who treats human life like merely nothing, who is like a natural killing machine, has a warm heart?”
“If your heart is cold, how could you stay here with me?”
Gao Fei couldn’t refute that. Sometimes, some emotions made him unable to refute because refuting would make him feel guilty.
As Maggie said, why did he stay here with her? Why did he want to live the life of an ordinary person? He had never thought about this question, but Maggie just said the real answer. He felt worried about Maggie and he also enjoyed the life of ordinary people.
He was tired.
When thinking that he felt tired, Gao Fei’s heart was full of vigilance. For him, the natural killing machine, the most terrible thing was to have too many emotions and feel tired one day. Once this situation occurred, it meant that he had a weak point.
Maggie looked at Gao Fei and said earnestly, “Brother Fei, let go of everything and don’t go back to the old days. Accompany me here. We live here happily with Brother Bing, Sister Xiaoxiao, Sister Yezi, Auntie Wang, and Auntie Li… How do you feel about living like this forever?”
When Gao Fei was about to refuse, Maggie suddenly said with emotion, “You are my real brother in my eyes. I feel very sad to see my brother taking on so many heavy burdens…”
There were tears in Gao Fei’s eyes, and even though his face looked unconcerned, the apathy was a cover-up. Suddenly he stood up and said hoarsely, “Maggie, it’s time for me to go to bed…”
He turned around to go inside, opened the door of his room, and thought in silence, “Maggie, you can rest assured that since you like this life, I will never allow anyone to destroy your present happy day. Anybody who destroys your life will die.
“I swear with my life!
“Also, in my heart, you are also my sister… my real sister!”
Seeing Gao Fei enter the room, Maggie spat out her tongue. She knew that it was not so easy for Gao Fei to let go of his persistence. However, she could feel that this man, who never easily expressed his feelings, had just had emotional fluctuations, even if those emotional fluctuations just remained for a while.
But that was enough.
It proved that he really cared about her and the friends he knew now.
No one knew that when Gao Fei was determined to guard this place in his heart, he and Xiao Bing no longer simply had the relationship between employer and staff, but the relationship between all the comrades who fought here side by side.
And that relationship would become unbreakable.
Anyone who tried to threaten this place would be sentenced to death in Gao Fei’s heart, including the world’s strongest person—Lord Long!
