Gu MingYue’s bruised and bleeding legs were already forming dark red scabs. Alone in the dark, she gritted her teeth and cleaned her wounds thoroughly before wrapping some gauze over her plentiful injured areas. There wasn’t any disinfectant besides the almost empty bottle of wine that she had used to clean up Xiao JingLin’s injuries last time.

All she could do now was pray that her injuries would not be inflamed and cause an infection, as it would be a great inconvenience to her.

After doing all of this, Gu MingYue leaned her back against the wall and fell into a drowsy and exhausted sleep. Her physical strength was exhausted to the limit, and her body was under much fatigue that she had never felt before.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a slight ‘squeak’ as the door of the warehouse was pushed open from the outside.

Even in her sleep, the woman remained absolutely vigilant and was instantly awake at the sound. She subconsciously clenched the pistol in her hand and wondered how she would escape from this situation with only two bullets left in the gun.

“As expected, you’re here.” The man’s low voice sounded up from the darkness.

There was a hint of a smile on the corners of Gu MingYue’s lips. She was fairly sure that Xiao JingLin would come to this place, after all, they were the only ones who knew about it. This was why she had chosen this abandoned warehouse instead of leaving the city, just to wait for him to arrive at the place where the two had first bonded.

And he came, as she had predicted so.

“I was waiting for you.” Gu MingYue stood up slowly with the support of the wall. She did not attempt to step closer to the man but continued to lean against the wall as she glanced at him.

“I’m only here for one thing.” Xiao JingLin stood stiffly as he glanced at the woman with sharp eyes, “Why?”

“Are you going to get rid of me after getting your answer?” Gu MingYue gestured at her temples with a slender finger.

“……”

“I know what you want to know.” The woman’s voice was hoarse as she continued slowly, “If you’re talking about the information provided to the AnYuan Group, then yes, I admit that have betrayed you.”

“Why?” Xiao JingLin’s voice was dry and coarse, as if he was in deep pain.

“I’ve loved you for such a long time, but you had the nerve to fall in love with someone else while I was recovering from my injuries. I could not deal with such betrayal.” Gu MingYue’s flat narrative voice carried a touch of bitterness, “At that time, I thought that if I could not own you, nobody could. However, I was not cold-hearted enough to do it myself, hence I disclosed your news to the AnYuan Group.”

The man on the other side fell silent at her words.

“The funny thing is, when you were really ambushed, I realized that I could not bear to let you die… And, you know what happened next…… I do not regret my decisions, hell, I’m actually glad that I did so because even if it was just for a short period of time, I had the chance to enter your heart.”

After finishing her words, Gu MingYue took a few steps towards Xiao JingLin’s direction while pointing the handle of the pistol towards the man.

“There are two bullets left. I had originally planned to kill you when you arrived, but still, I cannot bear to do so…… I…I wish to die by your hands, please do it.”

The woman closed her eyes calmly, however, even after a long time had passed, the gun in her hand was not picked up.

In fact, Xiao JingLin was still in shock after listening to her confession. He did not know how to react, because, on one hand, he was still dismayed at the woman’s betrayal, but on the other hand, her desperate and reckless action was due to her genuine love for him.

To be honest, all he could feel right now was joy. To think that hidden deep within her cold and abstinent demeanour would be such a great force of love and affection for him!

He quickly knocked the pistol out of the woman’s hand and pulled her staggeringly into his arms, hugging her tightly.

“I’m sorry.” The man cried out sullenly.

He was not at fault at all, however, he couldn’t stop the sourness rising to the tip of his nose at the thought of how torturous and in pain Gu MingYue was after learning that he was dating AnYuan LiMei.

No wonder she had changed so much after returning from her recuperation… It was all because of him……

“You’ve worked so hard to stand by my side, are you truly willing to die now?”

“…… Never.”

“Then, stay with me forever.”

“But your father……”

“A grandfather would never try to dismiss his own grandson, right?”

“?”

“I’m fairly certain that we had never used any protective measures at all.” Xiao JingLin pointed out casually.

“It’s better if you kill me right now.” Gu MingYue was shedding happy tears, but her tone was firm.

Xiao JingLin frowned at her words as he could not understand the woman’s thought process at all. Why did she still wish to die? Hadn’t he allowed her to stay by his side?

“If you only kept me alive because of the child, and expect me to live a life without a title as a mistress, just to watch you marry a proper lady and have legitimate children in the future, why not just end my life right now? Otherwise, I would definitely kill you one day.”

Ah, so she was worried about this.

“You’re the only one I need in this life, if I kill you now, what difference would it be compared to skinning my own heart alive?”

“Only me?”

“Yes, only you.”

“Do you swear?”

Xiao JingLin let out a burst of laughter at her words. To think that the master of assassins would also have such a cute and insecure womanly side! “Yes, I do!” He answered solemnly as he pulled the woman into a tight hug happily.

That’s all for this arc! ?? It’s a cute little happy ending, though, I’m just imagining how angry Xiao TianHong would be at his love-brained son’s final decision! But I do hope he’ll come to accept them!

Hopefully they get a child too! If I recall correctly, Gu MingYue was not fertile, but the body might still be so after her soul leaves, just like in Arc 1.

Enjoy~
