Chapter 56 Don’t cry, sister loves you
"Really?" Faced with the cruel truth told by Yan Lingji, Yang Chong's reaction was very calm.
Of course Yang Chong knew the secret of the Yang family, but he just didn't know what Yang Lin's specific plan was for him. Now after hearing Yan Lingji's words, the question that had been bothering Yang Chong but left him with only guesses finally had an answer. How shocked could he be?
Only this makes sense!
Using a fake child instead of the real child, letting the fake child attract enemy firepower that may appear at any time, and letting the real child develop slowly in secret. This strategy is quite clever and requires enough patience, but that's all.
Not surprisingly, Yang Chong was very calm, but his calmness became something else in Yan Lingji's eyes.
How does a person behave when he is extremely sad and desperate?
Some people believe that people who are extremely sad and desperate will become hysterical and crazy.
But Yan Lingji didn't think so. She had experienced something similar before. When she was a child, she could no longer control her power and set the village on fire. Even her dearest brother disappeared in the fire she started. What was her mood at that time?
Whenever Yan Lingji thought of what happened back then, she would feel as if a thousand arrows were piercing her heart.
But Yan Lingji clearly remembered that she did not cry or have hysterics at that time. She only seemed calm, a calm that was almost dementia. It was a calmness that was the result of extreme sadness and despair, or to be more precise, it was dead silence.
In Yan Lingji's view, Yang Chong now looks very similar to herself back then.
Yan Lingji also knew that sadness and despair must never be suppressed. Suppression cannot solve the problem, it just becomes repression, and repression will completely destroy a person. Therefore, when people are sad and desperate, they must vent their emotions.
But Yang Chong...
Yan Lingji looked at Yang Chong worriedly, she knew that what she said was too hurtful to Yang Chong, but she could only do so. Although the reality was cruel, it had to be faced eventually. If people live in falsehood, they can be happy for a while, but when the falsehood is shattered, they have to pay double.
"Are you okay?" Yan Lingji asked softly, trying to appear as gentle as possible.
"It's okay." Yang Chong smiled casually and really didn't care.
But Yan Lingji looked at Yang Chong's smile and felt even gloomier: This is not good! This incident has dealt him a bigger blow than I thought.
"Actually, this matter is not that bad. Now that you know about it, you will be prepared in the future. If you are kept in the dark, it will be a tragedy when the danger really comes." Yan Lingji forced a smile and blinked her bright eyes, hoping to use her relaxed smile to bring Yang Chong out of his emotions.
"I know." Yang Chong said with a smile.
Yang Chong knew about the relationship with Yan Lingji and was grateful for this friendship.
However, Yan Lingji, who had a preconceived notion, would have been fine if she hadn't seen Yang Chong's smile. But once she saw that smile, she not only couldn't feel relieved, but became even more worried.
Forced smile? Are you using your smile to cover up your true emotions? The clever Yan Lingji instantly "guessed" Yang Chong's true thoughts.
"You know? What do you know? You know that Yang Lin is not Yang Lin, you know that Qi Fu is not Qi Fu, but you know that only you, Yang Chong, are Yang Chong?" Yan Lingji said angrily. She felt sad for Yang Chong.
"What I know is..." Yang Chong wanted to say something, but he didn't see Yan Lingji's expression gradually becoming firm. Before he could finish his words, Yan Lingji hugged him.
In Yan Lingji's closed arms, Yang Chong felt a sense of suffocation. When he came to his senses, he had already fallen into Yan Lingji's warm embrace.
Is this how Yan Lingji comforts people? But did she misunderstand something?
Yang Chong wanted to explain, but the wonderful touch on his face and the sweet fragrance of his breath made Yang Chong shamelessly give up the idea of explaining.
Who could refuse Yan Lingji's broad and soft misunderstanding? Yang Chong certainly couldn't.
"Don't be sad, aren't they just so-called relatives? I, your sister, don't have any relatives either, but I'm still living well." Yan Lingji hugged Yang Chong and patted his back gently, just like she comforted her brother when he cried when he was a child.
"Don't cry, brother. I love you." Yan Lingji, who had already immersed herself in the role, comforted Yang Chong with gentle words.
"It hurts? How does it hurt?" Yang Chong, who was almost out of breath, quickly used the breath-holding technique from the Nine Yin Scriptures. Fortunately, his breath was long now, so he was able to hold on.
"In this world, if you have no relatives, I will be your relative. Even if everyone abandons you, I will not abandon you." Thinking of Yang Chong rescuing her from the cage, thinking of Yang Chong leaving his most important things to her before going to Weijiazhuang, thinking of Yang Chong not forgetting to consider her even when he was gambling his life, thinking of the past nearly half a year of 'living together', Yan Lingji's face was left with only determination, and in this determined look there was a hint of noble holiness.
Now Yan Lingji is no longer a fairy, but just a woman as gentle as water. Now she is no longer a demon girl of Baiyue, but just a sister who loves her younger brother.
"What Yang Lin? He is not even worthy of carrying shoes for my brother, and he still wants to be your father. Wait until we go back and kill him, and I will help you vent your anger. And that Qi Fu, he is not worthy of being your scapegoat. We will kill him when we go back." As Yan Lingji spoke, the gentle look on her face turned murderous, and she looked ferocious.
But now Yang Chong could not see Yan Lingji's fierce and ferocious look, he could only feel these four words.
Yan Lingji kept talking, and Yang Chong's thoughts of taking advantage of her faded away. If Yan Lingji was just a beautiful woman who could be taken advantage of, Yang Chong would never hesitate.
But how could Yang Chong still have the thought of "if you don't take advantage of a "sister" who is truly kind to him"?
When facing Jingwei, Yang Chong could marry Jingwei without any psychological burden and take away her virginity. That was because Yang Chong knew that Jingwei was a killer and he was just her task. Therefore, he could marry Jingwei, even in the bridal chamber, without any psychological burden.
But it was different for Yan Lingji. Although Yan Lingji was very beautiful, Yang Chong gradually gave up the idea of taking advantage of her.
At the very least, Yang Chong didn't want to take advantage of Yan Lingji's kindness at this moment. Even if he wanted to do something to Yan Lingji, it would never be at this time.
It’s not that Yan Lingji is not beautiful, it’s just that Yang Chong doesn’t want to.
So Yang Chong struggled to raise his head from Yan Lingji's arms.
