Chapter 522: Chapter 522. So It Was Her

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xiaoying heard someone calling her name as she walked. She turned around and saw a man in a cloak. The cloak covered his face, and she couldn’t see him. The voice was unfamiliar, but the feeling of this person standing there was very familiar.

“Xiaoying, have you forgotten about me?”

Seeing that Xiaoying did not recognize him, the man sounded very sad, as if Xiaoying had forgotten and had hurt him greatly.

“Who are you?”

Xiaoying lowered her head to see his face clearly, but this person was standing with his back to the sun, so Xiaoying could not see him clearly at all.

“You don’t remember me?”

The man asked her in pain. He raised his head slightly and looked at Xiaoying under his cloak. His voice was filled with anger.

“Is it because of that prince of Tartan?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

When Xiaoying heard his words, she suddenly felt terrified. She wanted to escape from this mysterious man quickly. She hurriedly said something and wanted to escape from this man who made her uncomfortable.

However, when the man saw she was about to escape, he suddenly grabbed Xiaoying’s arm. Xiaoying was so scared that she cried out for help. However, just as she shouted for help, her mouth and nose were covered before she could cry. A strange fragrance made her lose consciousness, and her body weakened. She could feel the man hugging her as they walked, but she could not resist and could only follow him.

She felt that the man had brought her to a grave. He said to the owner of the grave in a hoarse voice,

“Mother, I’ve found your daughter-in-law. Forgive me for being unfilial and unable to mourn for you and Father for three years. I have to marry Xiaoying immediately…”

When Xiaoying heard the man’s words, she immediately understood. He was Qiu Yongkang…

“You… Are you Big Brother Qiu?”

Xiaoying used all her strength to ask. Seeing that Sakura had finally recognized him, Qiu Yongkang was pleased. He stood up from the ground and wanted to hug Sakura,

“Xiaoying, do you still remember Big Brother Qiu? You haven’t forgotten me?”

She staggered backward and fell on the snow, trying to escape Qiu Yongkang’s embrace. She buried her face in the snow to wake herself up, escape from Qiu Yongkang, and report to her sister-in-law.

Qiu Yongkang saw Sakura escape from his embrace, and his eyes turned malicious. He gritted his teeth and asked,

“Have you changed your mind? You want to marry that Tartan for wealth?”

“I… I only treat you as my brother. How can I have a change of heart?”

After Xiaoying’s mind cleared up, she thought about how to escape. She frowned when she heard Qiu Yongkang’s words. What did he mean by having a change of heart? She had never liked him.

“You’re spouting nonsense. In the past, your eyes would light up whenever you saw me, and you would always sweetly call me Big Brother Qiu. It was that Tartanian who made you change your mind. I’ve done so much for you. I’ve ruined my family for you, but you want to marry that Tartan for glory and wealth?”

Qiu Yongkang’s eyes were bloodshot. He roared at Xiaoying like a madman. Xiaoying was frightened by him and cried as she retreated.

Qiu Yongkang used to be gentle and refined, always speaking to her softly. He had never shouted at her like this before.

Seeing that Xiaoying was still avoiding him and her eyes were filled with fear, Qiu Yongkang took a deep breath and walked towards her. He stopped shouting and changed his tone to a gentle one,

“Xiaoying, did your big brother and that witch force you? Big Brother Qiu knows you don’t want to marry that Tartan. You’re not someone who covets wealth. Tell Big Brother Qiu you still have him in your heart, right?”

“No… No, I’ve never liked you. I only see you as my brother.”

Xiaoying shook her head violently. She was terrified of this temperamental Qiu Yongkang. She seized the opportunity to get up from the ground and run. Aunt Qiu’s grave was in the suburbs. There were few people here. There was no one around. No one would come to save her even if she shouted her lungs out.

However, She still shouted for help, hoping someone nearby could hear her. Her cry for help provoked Qiu Yongkang, who chased after her and grabbed her arm, throwing her roughly into the snow. He pounced on her and grabbed her shoulder to shake her,

“You heartless woman. I love you so much that I can give up my life for you, but you treat me like this?”

“Let me go, let me go.”

Xiaoying felt as if her shoulders were about to be crushed by him. She cried and shouted,

“You’re hurting me.”

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I’ll be gentler. Can you not provoke me?”

Seeing Sakura cry, Qiu Yongkang quickly let go of her hand. He used his fingers to wipe her tears gently. His hoarse voice and gentle tone gave Sakura goosebumps. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew away Qiu Yongkang’s cloak and hat.

“Ah…”

It was a terrifying face. The lower eyelids of the two eyes were turned outwards, revealing the pink flesh inside. The skin on the face seemed burnt, and the black and red flesh were wrinkled together. The nose was gone, leaving only two nostrils. The mouth could not be closed, revealing the teeth inside…

Seeing such a terrifying face, Xiaoying was so scared that she fainted. Qiu Yongkang saw Sakura’s intense reaction and suddenly went crazy. He punched the snow hard like an angry wolf that wanted to eat someone. He shouted hysterically,

“Su Qing, Ji Shuisheng, I’m going to kill you. I’m going to cut you into pieces…”

After venting his anger, Qiu Yongkang looked down at Xiaoying, lying on the snow. Two streams of tears flowed out from his burnt eyes.

Qiu Yongkang touched his face in agony. He used to be handsome. At that time, Xiaoying would always smile sweetly when she saw him. Now, she was so scared that she fainted! This made him wish he was dead.

He squatted on the ground and hesitantly touched Xiaoying’s smooth face. Tears fell drop by drop.

” Xiaoying, I can’t let go of you. Please, don’t despise my current appearance…”

Qiu Yongkang picked up the unconscious Xiaoying and walked towards the City God Temple. He had sneaked into Mo City through that secret passage. His goal was not to kidnap Xiaoying but to blow up Su Qing. This woman had harmed his entire family and caused him to have no choice. He wanted nothing more than to burn her to ashes.

However, his plans didn’t change as quickly. He wanted to buy food for his parents and Qiu Yue to visit their graves, but he met Su Qing and Xiaoying at the Moon Pavilion.

From the moment he saw Xiaoying, revenge wasn’t that important anymore. His suppressed longing was like a surging tide. When he heard that Xiaoying would marry Yelu Chun, Qiu Yongkang felt like a knife was cutting his heart.

Xiaoying and revenge were the driving forces that supported him to live on. If he didn’t have Xiaoying, what was the point of living?

Initially, he only wanted to protect Xiaoying silently, with his face burnt like this. But now, he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t watch Xiaoying marry another man, bear children for Yelu Chun, and smile sweetly at him!

No, he wouldn’t allow it. Even if he had to destroy the world, even if he had to kill everyone, even if he had to go to hell…

Even if…

Even if Xiaoying hated him…
