Chapter 17 He is loved by someone
"You can accept Wei Xifeng's kindness to you, but can you accept Wei Xifeng hurting you?"
Jiang Liwu was puzzled. "So what you mean is?"
Qiao Yiran took a deep breath and said firmly, "I hope you can leave Wei Xifeng and leave this place."
"I'm not afraid you'll compete with me for Wei Xifeng, nor am I trying to deliberately exclude you. Please don't misunderstand me," Qiao Yiran said hurriedly. She waved her hands anxiously to distance herself from Wei Xifeng and express her strong desire, "If I could, I would rather leave Wei Xifeng and leave this place myself."
“But I can’t leave, but you can, while there’s still time.” Qiao Yiran looked at Jiang Liwu eagerly and tightly grasped Jiang Liwu’s hands. “Miss Jiang, please believe me. I’m doing this for your own good. I would never harm you.” Qiao Yiran’s eyes were full of sincerity.
Jiang Liwu's eyebrows twitched slightly, and she remained silent as she looked at the excited Qiao Yiran.
Qiao Yiran felt that Jiang Liwu's lack of rebuttal must mean she was starting to hesitate, so she pressed her advantage and continued, "You have no idea what kind of hellish cage this is, and you don't understand what kind of person Wei Xifeng is."
Jiang Liwu: "So you know Wei Xifeng very well?"
Qiao Yiran nodded, "I've been by his side for three years, and absolutely no one understands Wei Xifeng better than me."
Jiang Liwu smiled enigmatically, "So, what kind of person is he in your eyes?"
Qiao Yiran bit her lip. "He's not human. He's a monster. Not just in my eyes, but in everyone's eyes. No one who has an attack can turn into a beast, make beast-like sounds, and have a pair of terrifying, demonic red eyes."
"No one likes monsters, falls in love with monsters, or wants to be with monsters."
"Miss Jiang, I don't want you to end up like me, trapped by a monster." Qiao Yiran's eyes reddened, her expression a pitiful, wounded, and helpless little white flower.
"You may not know that you are my stand-in. I'm telling you because I don't want you to be deceived."
Jiang Liwu had no expression at this moment. Her thick eyelashes were long and delicate, and her dark eyes were like jade in a lake, exuding a coolness.
Qiao Yiran thought Jiang Liwu was too shocked to know how to react, so she quickly comforted her, "Don't be too sad. Now that you know the truth, you can get out of it as soon as possible."
Jiang Liwu pulled her hand away.
Qiao Yiran was stunned.
"Qiao Yiran, who gave you permission to talk nonsense here?"
Wei Xifeng's cold and sinister voice came from behind her. Qiao Yiran's whole body stiffened instantly. Her eyes widened uncontrollably, her pupils suddenly contracted, and her expression was extremely panicked and helpless.
Why is Wei Xifeng here? Did he hear everything she said?
From this angle, Jiang Liwu could see Wei Xifeng behind her, but she didn't even warn her.
Qiao Yiran bit her lip, looking at Jiang Liwu with some resentment, never expecting her to be so scheming.
"Who told you she was a stand-in?" Wei Xifeng grabbed Qiao Yiran's wrist, a raging storm brewing in his eyes.
Qiao Yiran's arm was twisted up, and she cried out in pain, but more than the pain, she felt panic. "I, I..."
"Stop trying to put on airs and flatter yourself. Don't you even know if you deserve it?" Wei Xifeng made no attempt to hide his contempt and disdain, his eyes mocking as if he were looking at a clown.
Qiao Yiran's face turned deathly pale, and she trembled with humiliation.
“Listen to me carefully, she is not anyone’s substitute.”
Tears streamed down her face, and Qiao Yiran was utterly humiliated.
Qiao Yiran is being judged by Wei Xifeng, but Wei Xifeng is also being judged by Jiang Liwu.
Wei Xifeng didn't dare to look at Jiang Liwu at all; he had heard Qiao Yiran's words of advice to Jiang Liwu to leave him.
Qiao Yiran was right. He was a monster, feared by everyone, liked by no one, and no one would want to stay by his side forever.
Love is something that cannot be hoped for.
The teacher just returned and then witnessed his repeated episodes of illness. Doesn't the teacher find him annoying at all? Doesn't she think he's particularly troublesome?
If the teacher wants to leave, can he keep him?
Jiang Liwu placed her hand on Wei Xifeng's forearm, signaling him to let go.
Wei Xifeng gasped for breath and released Qiao Yiran.
He lowered his head and closed his eyes.
"Everyone, how many people? No matter how many people, Wei Xifeng has never been a monster to me."
"I don't want to hear anyone call him a monster anymore."
Wei Xifeng opened his eyes, and light broke through the darkness once again.
“Even if he really is a monster, I still love him.” Jiang Liwu stood in front of Wei Xifeng and said, word by word.
Wei Xifeng suddenly looked up, his eyes wide open, his eyelashes trembling violently.
Qiao Yiran was so shocked that she stopped crying.
Wei Xifeng was shaken. He grabbed Jiang Liwu's hand and ran. He didn't know where he wanted to take Jiang Liwu, but he just wanted to find a place where no one was around.
Yes, there are only the two of them.
"Teacher, what you just said..." Wei Xifeng stopped in his tracks, his gaze fixed on her, his eyes filled with hope.
"It's true, we're family and of course I love you. No matter what others say or think, you must remember that you still have me."
Wei Xifeng's eyes immediately reddened, and his nose felt sore.
Jiang Liwu looked at Wei Xifeng with heartache, "I should have said this to you twenty years ago. Xiaofeng, you must have had a hard time these past twenty years."
Wei Xifeng couldn't help but pout and shed tears. He hugged Jiang Liwu tightly and rested his head on Jiang Liwu's shoulder with a wronged expression.
"Teacher, stepmother..."
Jiang Liwu patted Wei Xifeng's back gently, thinking about his frenzied and uncontrollable illness, which resembled that of a wild beast. She worriedly said, "Don't worry, I'm here. He'll definitely get better."
Wei Xifeng nodded repeatedly; he had never imagined that there were actually people in this world who were willing to love him.
It turns out that he was already a loved child twenty years ago.
Wei Xifeng clung tightly to this love, his eyes filled with obsession and possessiveness.
Baal came over with a piece of meat in its mouth, but it didn't eat the last piece.
It ignored Wei Xifeng's presence, its huge, fluffy head nudging Jiang Liwu repeatedly.
It was hard for Jiang Liwu not to be drawn to it. "What's wrong?"
Baal stretched out his neck, his golden eyes as pure and intense as the sun, filled with seriousness, making gurgling sounds in his throat, and his tail wagging non-stop.
"Was this piece of meat specially reserved for me?" Jiang Liwu immediately understood.
Barr nodded.
Wei Xifeng was slightly surprised. He knew better than anyone how protective Baal was of his food, and even he couldn't snatch it from Baal's mouth.
This is absolutely the first time since Baal was born that he has voluntarily shared food.
"What should we do? It's raw."
