Chapter 362: Chapter 362 We Are Not People from the Same World

She didn’t have such a strong capacity for acceptance, and she couldn’t be indifferent to everything.

She shook her head slightly, wanting to say words of refusal.

The man suddenly hugged her tight, pressing her head against his chest, not allowing her to speak.

"Shush, don’t say anything. Take your time; I won’t pressure you. One day," I believe one day you’ll adapt, you’ll accept me."

She won’t, even if she could accept him, she couldn’t let her child be involved in his world.

She wasn’t foolish; she knew that once one entered the dark world, there was no coming out unscathed. Without the protection of power, the end would be very tragic.

This was a road of no return. Those who trod it never had a way back.

Unless one severed their offspring, generation after generation would be unable to escape the dark world, forever living in a world without light.

On this path, there were only two choices: either complete destruction or becoming even stronger.

But the stronger one became, the more tragic the eventual downfall, and none of the friends and family would be spared.

When Rong Shaoze chose this path, did he think of these?

Lin Xinlan shook her head; he knew what she was thinking and held her even tighter.

The more he did so, the more agitated she became.

She pushed against his chest, shook her head more forcefully, and looking up into his dark eyes, with tears in her eyes, she couldn’t help but ask him, "Rong Shaoze, if you had a choice, would you choose this path?"

He thought she would talk about refusing him; he didn’t expect her to ask this.

The man paused, his lips pressed together, unsure of how to answer.

His silence was the best answer already.

If there had been a choice, he wouldn’t have taken this path.

Who would choose this path when they could live a bright and happy life...

"You wouldn’t want to either, right?" That’s why she also didn’t want her child to take this path.

The doctor said that Xiaocong’s eyes could be cured.

For years, she had been saving money for his surgery, to have his retina replaced.

If Rong Shaoze knew of Xiaocong’s existence, with his capability, he could easily cure Xiaocong’s eyes.

But what after that?

To be exposed to the dark forces from a young age, just like he was trained beside his grandmother in his childhood?

And then, he retires, and Xiaocong becomes the Sect Leader of the Phoenix Flame, living a life full of fighting and killing every day?

No, she would rather die than agree to let Xiaocong take this path.

She was very selfish; she only hoped her child could live an ordinary life.

Wealth, power, she didn’t care for; she only wanted him to live happily.

"Rong Shaoze, you see, you don’t wish to step into the dark world either. So, I also don’t wish to..."

She said with determination grinding her teeth, "I just want to live an ordinary life. I’m afraid of death, I dislike trouble, and I hate the things you do. I’ll pretend to know nothing about your deeds. If you have any feelings for me, please let me go because we are not from the same world, and I do not wish to be with you."

As soon as she finished speaking, the entire carriage fell quiet, so quiet it didn’t make any sound, terrifyingly quiet.

The man’s dark eyes fixed on her, his gaze becoming deeper and more fierce.

The air began to freeze, oppressive enough to make one feel suffocated.

Lin Xinlan looked at him nervously; if he, furious and ashamed, killed her, she would accept her fate.

If she died, he wouldn’t pay attention to her affairs, nor would he find out about Xiaocong’s existence.
