Chapter 564: Leaving
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The black-haired young man who seed to be acting unreasonably but was actually consolidating at every step cautiously hid the ferociousness and cruelness under his faint smile. Looking at the young man in front who talked about bloody killing like swatting a fly in an outdoor barbecue, Trish recalled his contradictory characteristics that blended perfectly together and imdiately snapped back to reality after several weeks of being muddle-headed.
After a long silence, the girl spoke with a bitter smile, “You’re always right, Lisheng. Although you can sotis be as evil as Satan’s followers—no, I should say that you’re as evil as Satan’s incarnation, the Lord seems to be always forgiving and protecting you. Because of this, no matter what you do, you’re always right. While, I, on the other hand, have beco a person who should be cursed. I really don’t want you to see in such a wrecked manner. Really...”
Upon hearing Trish’s words, Zhang Lisheng finally recalled that the reason she agreed to let the Atlanteans activate her lineage with the light stone was for the sake of her family and because she wanted to have supernatural power to achieve the status complentary to herself.
When the young man thought of this and looked at the girl’s haggardness, he could not help but feel a pang of inexplicable pain in her chest.
“Trish, perhaps now you may think that the dominant bloodline of the aliens in your body has destroyed your life, but when this difficult day passed, you will find that this is actually nothing but a small bump in life...” Zhang Lisheng consoled her in a whisper. However, the rest of his words stayed in his throat after hearing what the girl said next, “So are you saying that I’ll beco even more miserable in the future, Lisheng?”
“Of course not, I an, I an, you’ll beco stronger and will have a more successful career in the future. Don’t you love helping ordinary people? I can set up a charity foundation that you could handle, so you would be able to help others. I believe that you’ll beco the most...” Stunned, Zhang Lisheng hastily explained, but his mouth was suddenly blocked by cold soft lips.
Kissing in an unparalleled passion, Trish gasped and whispered, “I don’t need you to set up any foundation or anything for , Lisheng. This is not the love that I want. What I care about is not how you use money, wealth, power, status to let continue to live in high life but whether you can co to and accompany when I’m most miserable in life, when my entire life has lost its direction, just like today... to be honest, I’ve been fantasizing all day, dreaming that you would co to find . But, I really didn’t expect that you would really appear in front of . I love you, Lisheng. I love you! I love you...”
Being caressed and stroked by the girl in a gaffe manner, Zhang Lisheng, who initially felt that the location was very inappropriate but could not reject her, gradually felt his desire rising, but at this mont, a familiar scream of horror resonated in his ear. “Trish, Lisheng! What are you two doing? T-The f*ck? W-What the f*ck is this? Trish Steg, do you still rember that the man you’re having a French kiss now is actually the man your best friend loves?”
The soft hot body in the young man’s embrace imdiately stiffened and began to tremble slightly. Trish snapped back from her sentint and pushed her lover away tremblingly. Summoning her courage bravely, she looked at Sheila, who had a look of disbelief on her face and said with great difficulty, “I’m sorry, Sheila. I know that I have done sothing that you wouldn’t be able to forgive, but I really can’t control myself. I love Lisheng, I love him! I fell in love with him ever since he rescued in the Amazon jungle a few years ago...”
“But he is Tina’s boyfriend, Trish Steg! He has always been!” Sheila said in a blank expression. “I also like this man a lot! And whenever I see him, I can’t help but want to make a joke and tease him, but it has never crossed my mind to have any relationship with him, for he’s the lover of my best friend! You really, really are a bitch, Trish! Tina and the two of us are best friends since childhood. She’s our sister, but you actually snatched her most beloved person! You’re a slut...”
When Sheila reached here, she had beco so overwheld with emotions that she could no longer speak. Half of the reason she was so overco with such a strong feeling was that the most severe betrayal had just happened between her two closest friends.
The other reason, on the other hand, was because although Sheila was an affectionate girl who would change her boyfriend in almost every few months, Zhang Lisheng had always held an exceptional position in her heart.
A woman’s nature would always be thoroughly subdued by an outstanding man that she could never conquer and obtain. When Sheila saw that the man, whom she admired the most but dared not have extravagant hopes for, was actually captured by Trish through despicable betrayal ans, a pang of intense pain naturally arose from her heart.
“I’m sorry. Sorry... I’m sorry...” Sheila was so annoyed that she could not speak, while Trish had also beco like a fool, continuously mumbling her apologies in a dumbfounded manner. Zhang Lisheng was at a loss for words while facing such a situation, although he had already beco an ancient god. After being stunned for a while with a complicated feeling in his heart, in the end, he could only pick Trish up in his arms and ran away like he was escaping the scene.
The young man flexibly moved between tents and ran into the Capitol Hill. When he saw that the road was close at hand, he slowed down and looked at the girl in his arms. Breathing a sigh of relief, he asked carefully, “Trish, are you alright?”
“I’m fine, Lisheng,” The girl smiled bleakly. “I just feel that I’m a very terrible woman. I actually betrayed my best friend and sister, but I didn’t feel any regret at all. Sheila’s right, I’m a slut...”
“Hey, don’t say this to yourself, Trish. Everyone is actually selfish. You didn’t do anything wrong... Well, or should I say, your wrongs are not as serious as you imagine...” As one of the parties involved, Zhang Lisheng did not know how to console Trish. At the sa ti, he was also distraught that Sheila would tell Tina the affair he had with Trish. If that happened, he did not know how awkward and complicated the situation he would be in, so he could only randomly reply incoherently.
The psychology of a human was very delicate. When Trish saw how the young man began to panic, she suddenly beca unprecedentedly calm instead.
It was like a person walking on a high-altitude suspension cable all day would be extrely nervous and dizzy when she looked at the ground, in fear that she would fall, so she would want to stay on the rope at all costs. However, when the worst-case scenario happened, and she really fell towards the ground, she might be able to throw away all the weights and feel the ease she had never felt before.
The sha of secretly being in love with her best friend’s respect; the pressure of subconsciously wanting to be more outstanding than Tina who had been nothing but exceptional; the fear and pain of having lost almost everything in this short period of one to two months for taking one wrong step.
All of the negative emotions that accumulated in Trish’s heart had started to disappear for no reason within a flash because of the worst-case scenario.
“Let down, Lisheng,” She took a deep breath and whispered. When Zhang Lisheng heard her, he was surprised but did not let go, “Trish, you don’t seem to be in your right mind.”
“It’s not that I’m not in my right mind, but because you have seen my most embarrassing, ridiculous appearance now that I beca relaxed instead. Let down, dear, I am fine.”
“Oh. I must say that a woman’s thought is indeed weird. However, you didn’t lose everything, Trish,” When the young man saw that the girl had regained her usual intelligent and tranquil look that she used to have, he put her down on the grass and pointed to the long headlights in the distance and said, “My car is waiting right there at the end of the string of lights. Let us go to the best restaurants in Washington to fill our stomachs, then go to the hotel to rest. When you wake up tomorrow, you’ll once again beco one of the most beautiful and wealthy ladies in New York...”
“Stop talking, Lisheng. I don’t want to listen to these now, I just want to stay with you,” Trish had a gentle look in her eyes as she covered Zhang Lisheng’s mouth.
“Okay, I’ll stop. I’ll stop...” The young man vaguely promised as he pulled the girl’s warm, little hand to walk the distance.
More than ten minutes later, the two walked up to the long, black Lincoln limousine. Kent, who had been staying outside the car smoking while waiting, imdiately extinguished the cigarette when he saw Zhang Lisheng approaching and attentively opened the back door. “Welco back, Sir.”
“Thank you, Kent.” After sitting in the limousine with Trish, he smiled, “Go to the best restaurant around here. I’m starving.”
When the driver saw that Trish had an appearance almost identical to the Atlanteans, he was stunned a little. It was clear that he was flabbergasted over the fact that his ‘big boss’ had just brought away an Atlantean girl in the largest anti-Atlantis demonstration in US history. When he heard the order, he imdiately snapped back to reality, “Yes sir!” before hastily starting the car to drive into the bustling city.
As a local, Kent did make a good recomndation; Zhang Lisheng only spent less than 200 dollars for a sumptuous and delicious seafood dinner. After filling their stomachs, he and Trish went to stay in the Hilton Garden Hotel.’
At night, the pair of secret lovers who finally reunited temporarily threw away all their troubles and sorrows as they indulged themselves in their sensual desire.
At dawn, Zhang Lisheng finally fell asleep on the comfortable and soft bed of the hotel.
In the darkness, Trish stared at the young man’s youthful and vibrant face without blinking, with a boundless longing and loving look on her face. As though she could not help herself, she wanted to sneak a kiss, but as her head lowered, she suddenly stopped midway. In the end, after looking greedily at him a few seconds more, she gently climbed down the bed, picked up the clothes on the carpet, and left the bedroom silently.
When the girl closed the door gently, Zhang Lisheng suddenly opened his eyes with a sad expression on his face. Sighing, he walked to the window.
Pulling the corner of the curtain, he waited quietly. Soon, he saw a slender figure exuding a faint glimr of light gradually flying and accelerating into the distance.
“Although I don’t understand why staying with and relying on is the love that you refuse, I respect your decision...” Looking at the light that was gradually dissipating in his eyes, Zhang Lisheng muttered, “Freedom! Of course, it’s freedom! Aha! So this thing has nothing to do with power...”
