Chapter 623: Chapter 623: Afraid She’ll Change Her Heart

"Now you want to throw your life away just because of a little ruse from Qiao Yiyang?!"

"If you die like this, you’ll bring an eternal disgrace to Yanhuang that can never be wiped away!"

"Where has your composure gone? Since your mind isn’t clear, I have no choice but to stop you at the risk of my own life!"

Rong Shaoze’s eyes darkened as he lowered his gaze and said in a deep voice, "I know this is Qiao Yiyang’s scheme."

Xu Yao was slightly stunned. "If you know, then why are you still impulsively rushing to your death?!"

"You don’t understand..." Rong Shaoze murmured, his voice carrying an imperceptible anxiety and tremor, "What I’m worried about is something else..."

"What is it?"

The man’s eyes flickered and his lips pressed tightly together. After a long silence, he finally spoke, "I’m worried that Xinlan’s heart no longer belongs to me."

Xu Yao’s eyes widened in surprise, feeling an unpleasant taste in his heart.

The always haughty and confident Rong Shaoze, who never took anything to heart, when had he become so insecure, so anxious and uneasy?

Rong Shaoze continued to speak, as though talking to himself, "How long has it been since Xinlan was taken? It’s been two months now, two months is neither long nor short, but it’s enough to change many things. A person’s heart can change in an instant."

"Damn! Don’t you have any confidence in yourself?!" Xu Yao couldn’t help but curse.

Rong Shaoze looked out the window, a bloodthirsty murderous intent flashing through his eyes.

"It’s not that I lack confidence in myself, but that I know how deep Qiao Yiyang’s obsession with Xinlan is! Because he’s the same kind of person as me!"

Xu Yao understood his meaning now.

Qiao Yiyang was the same kind of person as him.

If Lin Xinlan could fall for him, naturally, she might also fall for Qiao Yiyang.

In China, there’s a saying that goes, ’Even a virtuous woman can’t withstand a persistent suitor.’

No matter how much Lin Xinlan loves Rong Shaoze, if she’s constantly around Qiao Yiyang, being loved and pampered by him in his domineering way, sooner or later she will be moved by Qiao Yiyang.

By then, even if she doesn’t want to change her heart, it would be out of her control.

This was exactly what Rong Shaoze feared.

He wasn’t afraid of being separated by life or death from her, nor was he afraid of the insurmountable distance between them; what he feared was that Lin Xinlan’s heart was already lost and couldn’t be found again.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious and frightened Rong Shaoze became.

If she changed her heart, what would he do, what could he do?!

Xu Yao’s eyes widened in shock.

Because in Rong Shaoze’s eyes at that moment, there was a terrifying vulnerability, like that of a homeless and abandoned child, looking very pitiful.

He fell silent, also somewhat understanding Rong Shaoze’s feelings at this moment.

"Xu Yao, I must have her back at my side immediately, no matter what the cost. Do you understand?" Rong Shaoze murmured.

A resolute look flashed in Xu Yao’s eyes, "Okay, I’ll respect your wishes."

————

Lin Xinlan had been here for four days, but she had still not had the chance to see Rong Shaoze.

And Lu Xiaofan said that the strife outside was escalating.

The Mafia suffered heavy losses, yet Qiao Yiyang showed no sign of stopping.

All of North America was undercurrents of turmoil, and the sky was shrouded in a heavy gloom.

Lin Xinlan looked up at the blue sky, her mood very heavy.

Did she really cause all of this?

If it weren’t for her, Rong Shaoze wouldn’t have to sacrifice so many lives and lose so much power just to save her, right?

And Qiao Yiyang wouldn’t have driven the Mafia to serious damage out of madness.
