Chapter 17 Demon
Lin Qing’s breathing stopped. The smile of the woman in front of him made him be dumbstruck for a moment. It was not that Zhao Zimu had never smiled in front of him nor was it elaborate. It was just that her face had a natural gentleness, but it was the same for everyone.
However, this smile of today was from the bottom of her heart like a blooming flower in the breeze. It made people be instantly attacked with an elegance and their heart couldn’t help but shiver.
“Why are you not afraid?” Lin Qing asked.
“I give my life to you, so, I’m not afraid,” Zhao Zimu answered. I can even give my life to you, so, what’s there to be afraid of?
“Why?” Lin Qing asked stubbornly. A small flame seemed to be burning in his heart and it was as if that flame wanted to get bigger until he turned himself into ashes.
Lin Qing got close to her face and asked coldly. Look, I’m so close to you and want to be so close to you! Do you hate me? You are not allowed to hate me!
A demon seemed to be clamoring in his heart, shouting for him to get close to this person, tie her, trap her and let her eyes only see him and only be able to see him. He wanted to be in her eyes.
The sluice gate that had always been closed was violently loosened at this time by the smile in front of him. Inside there, there were all kinds of beast that Lin Qing was holding in. Now, because of a smile, all those beasts began to stir up and screamed. He wished that he could hold the person in front of him in his arms, imprison her below him and let her notice him.
Lin Qing had taken notice of Zhao Zimu for three years already. Three whole years. From the first moment she entered Qiansui’s residence, he had noticed her. At first, he was only attracted by her coldness and indifference. Later, after living together, his eyes stayed more on her and always inadvertently looked at her. She was always obscure and calm.
He wanted to get close to her and let her get closer to him, but she had always been calm and indifferent. Although, she had a smile on her, but that was the smile she gave everyone. Everyone was the same in her eyes. Such a person like her made such a person like him have a feeling towards her that would let every normal man laugh at him. How could he catch her?
There were fights reeking of blood in his residence, but she had been cold and collected from the beginning to the end. What he gave her, she accepted. What he didn’t give her, she didn’t seek. It was as if nothing was in her eyes and as if everything in this world was a cloud of smoke. This was what he could see in her eyes.
Such a person, what he wanted happened to be such a person that he couldn’t get but want to get closer to.
Gems, satin, gold, silver and precious stones couldn’t enter her eyes. What a joke. Could it be that he had to rely on this broken body (to get her)? That was why he felt hate!
Moreover, he didn’t know when this hate had turned into all kinds of beasts. Even if he had kept them in the depths of his heart, they continued to clamor, hoping for one day to rush out of the prison and swallow the person in front of him, without leaving a drop of blood and let them fuse together. Only then would they be satisfied.
In order to get the answer, even if Lin Qing didn’t believe in Buddhism, he had once stopped in front of Buddha.
He went through all the scriptures in front of Buddha but got the same answer. Buddha said, “This is a demon.”
Ridiculous. Could it be that Buddha wanted him to give up? Impossible!
Therefore, he burned that temple and exiled the monks. Since they couldn’t get through him, then let them go deliver all living creatures from suffering.
The anger in his heart was still unable to be extinguished. So, he let people build shrines everywhere in the imperial capital. There was no Buddha in them, only him.
What if it was a demon? He would make this demon live with him openly in the daylight!
His demon could only be eliminated with her. A complete her.
