Chapter 73: Desire in the Heart (6)
"Is that so? It's all because of me?"
After finding the source, Yin Yin felt pain all over her body as if she was pierced by thousands of arrows. She thought to herself, why didn't she find out such a simple truth earlier? She should have known it long ago, why did she wake up only now? She locked herself in a world of her own to escape everything, but this was the result. Although the plague was not caused by her, the lives of the people were related to her. This was a fact that she could not escape. It was she who escaped from Zhou Cheng, it was she who caused Zhou Cheng and Zhou Yan to turn against each other, it was she who caused Zhou Cheng to not save Zhou Yan, it was she who caused Zhou Yan to be forced by Zhou Cheng, all of this was because of her?
Tears flowed silently from Yin Yin's eyes, as if they were endless...
“It’s not your fault!”
Even though Zhou Yan knew it was because of Yin Yin, he never thought it was her fault. How could someone who is loved be wrong? This is not a reason or an excuse, but fate, the fate between him and his brother Zhou Cheng, and it should also include Zhao Ziheng, right? Because they all fell in love with the same woman, in order to compete for the only heart, they had to fight each other, no matter what the price, for them, there was only one pursuit, that is Yin Yin, they were all crazy and longing in their hearts, so Zhou Yan knew that once whoever relaxed first would lose, it would be like not being able to survive, so he had to stand up and fight...
"Stay with me, I will let you see the world you expect."
Zhou Yan's words were like a spell, and Yin Yin's heart was shaken. But what was the world she was looking forward to? Yin Yin had never thought about this question. Wasn't the world she lived in what she was looking forward to? Then what would it be? What kind of world would Zhou Yan be looking forward to?
'He is a man who can save many lives'.
When Yin Yin was hesitant and was moved by Zhou Yan's words, Wang Ye's words emerged in her mind. The word "rescue" resounded in Yin Yin's mind and woke her up from her confusion. She felt as if she had suddenly realized something, and she even felt that she had never been so clear before.
"Let them go."
"Well?"
Zhou Yan didn't know what Yin Yin was thinking in such a short time, but why did her answer, eyes and expression make people feel like a different person? Is this really Yin Yin? Even in the past, Zhou Yan had never seen Yin Yin who gave people such a pure and elegant feeling.
"I want you to let them go , can you do that?"
The sharpness in Yin Yin's eyes when she spoke was something Zhou Yan had never seen before. Was it the light of worrying about others? Yin Yin looked strange and new, even more touching and captivating. A passion he had never felt before surged into Zhou Yan's heart.
"What will happen if we let them go? Aren't they just waiting to die?"
"...someone will find ways to control, prevent and treat it in the short term, so please don't kill them."
"who?"
"I!"
Wang Ye's voice interrupted the conversation between Zhou Yan and Yin Yin. Zhou Yan looked in the direction of the voice and found that the owner of the voice was indeed Wang Ye, whom he knew. Zhou Yan was also very surprised about this. According to his information, Wang Ye should be far away in Zhao State and should not appear here at this time and in this place!
Wang Ye did not feel offended or rude when he came in uninvited, because he felt that the timing of his appearance was right.
"Why are you here, as King Zhao's confidant?"
"Why? To solve the problem at hand, of course."
It was natural to be surprised, but Zhou Yan did not forget Wang Ye's identity. Wang Ye was a man loyal to Zhao Ziheng and an unfathomable person. There must be a reason for his appearance at this time and opportunity. However, Wang Ye's answer also made Zhou Yan concerned, as well as the confidence he showed. The plague is a well-known incurable disease. Although Wang Ye had helped Zhao Ziheng solve the epidemic problem when invading other countries, Zhou Yan also knew that the current plague was different, and even Wang Ye could not find a cure.
"Well, what if I don't agree?"
Zhou Yan felt that there was no need to ask why Wang Ye appeared at this time, nor did he want to know how he was involved with Yin Yin, because he found a perfect opportunity.
"I think Prince Jing has no reason to refuse."
Wang Ye's words seemed to be predicted, and Zhou Yan raised a cold smile at the corner of his lips. Of course, Wang Ye's words were discovered in the blind spot that Yin Yin could not see, so he felt uneasy.
"You can ask me to agree, but that's not something you can do."
Having said that, Zhou Yan turned to Yin Yin again. Yin Yin was obviously a little shaken because her feeling also made her uneasy. What exactly was this uneasiness about?
"I say again, stay with me, and I will let you see the world you expect, including releasing those people."
Wang Ye's uneasiness came true, and Yin Yin was also surprised. She came to Zhou Yan with trust at first, but the trust might not be complete. Just like the oppression in Zhou Yan's words at this moment, Yin Yin felt that invisible shackles were reaching out to her. She remembered that he had never said such words during the time when she was with Zhou Yan, but what was the meaning of saying such words at this time? Was it just to keep her by his side? Yin Yin felt that she seemed to have overlooked something, but she knew that once she agreed, she would never be able to leave. Zhou Yan should also know how cruel this choice was to her. Even so , Zhou Yan still did it.
Yes, Zhou Yan knew, indeed, and had done it before, so he didn’t mind doing it again. He didn’t want to give Yin Yin to anyone no matter what. The extent of his desire for Yin Yin was beyond his imagination, let alone his control...
