Chapter 598: No Regrets (2/2)
Although he wished to overcome these dangers, there was a chance that he might not. Even so, he refused to cowardly hide and give up his dreams. He would rather shine brightly but die young than hide in darkness and regret for eternity.
Xue Wei did not speak about their past but their future, and his words made Hei Gou feel better. The emptiness within his heart slowly began to fill, and he no longer felt a strange sense of loss and depression.
Although their past was still not mentioned in the details of their conversation, Hei Gou found that this pleasant conversation was enough to calm his frazzled nerves, and he slowly felt at ease. Even Xue Wei could feel how he slowly began to accept the feelings that occupied his mind.
Although it was not mentioned with words, Xue Wei knew that Hei Gou was uncomfortable with the feelings of attachment he felt towards Xue Wei and the others.
All his memories were gone, and his mind was very vigilant. He was unaware of many things, but he knew that he had to be careful, so this almost controlling need to stay by this group's side was enough to make him unhappy and worried.
However, as the hours went by and he slowly began to speak with Xue Wei, his suspended heart slowly settled and he began to feel as if he could integrate in the group without suffering.
Not once did Xue Wei ask if he had remembered anything, and he truly managed to make him feel at ease and accepted for who he was now. Such a feeling made the sense of resistance his logical mind had raised slow down again.
”This No Man's Land is going to be a challenge for us. Not only will it test our ability to fight and react in dangerous situations, it will also test our group's cooperation. I am aware that I am currently a weak link, but I will try my best to become a part of the group once more.”
As the sun's first rays of light broke over the horizon, Hei Gou seemed to have finally found his inner peace once more. He was no longer feeling worried or uncomfortable, but began to willingly accept Xue Wei and the others.
While he could no longer trust them as before, he was willing to open his heart, which was a great start, and his words caused Xeu Wei's cold face to soften as a smile adorned his lips.
Although Hei Gou's personality had changed after forgetting his memories, Xue Wei still felt that deep within, the core of the two versions of the black dog were the same. As long as he was willing to openly give their group a try, then Xue Wei had no doubt that they would soon return to being a very steady group that could depend on one another.
