79 -8 Skillful Delegation and Explanation_1
Liu Zhenhan felt a twinge of regret for throwing that detestable Ferguson Xu into the sea as a hostage.
Because he had lost a crucial witness to vouch for him.
There was a frosty veil hanging over Ning Yu’s face.
Avril, donned in Ning Yu’s white robe, had puffy eyes from crying, which shot a pain straight through Liu Zhenhan’s heart.
Ning Yu never uttered a word.
She bit her lip as tears streamed down her cheeks, and the crystal shell on her back quivered soundlessly.
“Despicable Beamon!” Avril trembled, but she could not utter another curse.
“Whether you believe it or not, it was Ferguson Xu who drugged you.
What do you want me to do?” Liu Zhenhan felt really embarrassed.
“How could a sage master manufacture such a lowly drug and use it on his own loyal subordinate?” Ning Yu choked back her sobs, “I need him to confirm it with his own mouth!”
“You filthy pig!” Avril’s face turned radiantly red.
“If you two can’t vent your anger, there is nothing I can do!” Liu Zhenhan turned his head away, forced himself to stop thinking, to stop watching, “Actually, I was also a victim…..”
“You are not allowed to say anything else!” The mermaid jumped up and started to rain punches on Liu Zhenhan’s body.
Unused to using her legs for walking, she stumbled and fell into his arms.
“I won’t speak, won’t speak anymore…” Liu Zhenhan embraced Avril, “I was just trying to clarify the facts…”
Avril’s tears dropped onto the cabin floor producing a string of ‘gulu gulu’ sounds.
Their crispness was heart-wrenching.
“The mermaids weep at night, their tears turn into pearls.” Ning Yu forced out a bitter smile.
Her face was also full of tears, which made her look pitifully charming.
“It…can’t entirely be my fault, can it?” Liu Zhenhan wanted to defend himself but couldn’t find the words.
For once, the usually glib-tongued him was completely at a loss for words.
“Where is Master Xu?
Why isn’t he here to see us, to look at his masterpiece?” Ning Yu’s eyes grew wide, “For all his scheming to win your favor, he should have gotten what he wanted, shouldn’t he?”
Her gaze fell on Liu Zhenhan’s thumb, upon which was a beautiful blood jade ring.
“Such a trade!
A dishonorable trade!” Ning Yu stood up, her voice cold as ice on a snowy mountain.
“Say what you will!” Liu Zhenhan cradled Avril’s delicate face in his chest, gently caressing her beautiful golden hair, “I swear, I knew nothing about this beforehand!
And I was also furious about it!
I’ve already handed Ferguson Xu over to the prince of the Sea Clan as a hostage, in part to vent your grievances!”
“My brother is here?” Avril looked up with surprise from his warm embrace, then realizing something, she pushed Liu Zhenhan away with disgust, her tender arms breaking out into goosebumps.
“Am I that repulsive?” Liu Zhenhan felt dejected, his heart filled with an oppressive feeling.
“It’s not that I hate you!” Avril’s sapphire eyes were filled with loathing, “I wish the Sea God to bring down all curses upon you!
I hope you fall forever into the bottomless pits of Hell, tortured eternally by the undying flames!”
“Why did you make Master Xu a hostage?” Ning Yu looked at Liu Zhenhan with a smirk, “How could you treat a noble sage master in that manner!”
“Noble?” Liu Zhenhan scoffed, “If one can be considered noble for risking his subordinate’s life in pursuit of his selfish desires, then I wish this nobility would disappear from this world!”
Ning Yu bit her lip hard, her chest heaving.
“Everything on this ship, is now under my possession.
Ferguson Xu and I swore an oath together under the highest deity in the East, because of that, if you don’t believe me, I can take you to Gude.
He would explain everything.” Liu Zhenhan shook his head and sighed, “Honestly, I don’t know how to face you two, but I have to.
Ning Yu, I hope you won’t waste your beautiful life trying to commit suicide.
I won’t let you die; you know that I have the ability to share my life force through my ‘Heart Lock Battle Song’.
I promise, as long as I’m alive, I won’t stand by and watch you die!
You and Avril are my first women.
Even after being with Helen for so long, you two are still my first women!
I am a vulgar Beamon; I know I am not worthy of you two…”
The sound of Ning Yu and Avril’s sobs echoed again.
“If not for this accident, I think you two could have found a handsome prince or nobleman and lived happily all your lives.” Liu Zhenhan continued.
The sounds of sobbing grew louder.
“But I, Richard, am a full-grown man.
Whatever I’ve done, I’ll admit.
But to lose my life as an apology for you, that’s impossible!
This is not our fault, it’s neither yours, nor mine.
This is the disaster Greed has brought upon all of us!
If Avril, your Sea Clan, could be a bit more tolerant and not conflict with the people on this ship, today’s event might not have happened.
This is fate!” Liu Zhenhan laughed, albeit a forced one.
The sobbing became even louder.
“There’s one more thing that I have to tell you…” Liu Zhenhan gritted his teeth, and started telling them his story before he came to this world.
He talked and talked, oblivious to how much time had passed.
The fierce battle seemed like a tale from a different lifetime as Liu Zhenhan recounted it.
He didn’t know why he was sharing his past with these two girls he had known for less than two days, but he did it anyway.
The sobbing ceased.
Liu Zhenhan mentioned the last time he saw his brother, he told them about the time they played instruments and sung “Cat Ear Cave” in the Cat Ear Cave.
His eyes grew moist, shimmering with the striking, pure tears only a real man possessed.
These tears were even more captivating than actual pearls.
The two girls were entranced, even forgetting to sob.
They never expected that a seemingly simple Pigiel race orc could have such a complex past.
Liu Zhenhan explained his experiences with the little fox on the island.
The dull stories came to life with deep feelings under his narration.
A pair of small hands embraced Liu Zhenhan from behind.
A familiar fragrance filled Liu Zhenhan’s nostrils.
“No matter where you came from, you will always be my Richard.”
“You’ve awaken?” Liu Zhenhan wiped his tears, and said joyfully.
“Actually, I’ve been half awake.
After hearing your story, I’m fully awake now.” Helen’s red curly hair fell onto Liu Zhenhan’s shoulders.
