There was a wound there which had not recovered, and the scar was especially big. She hurriedly went over and held onto his sleepwear and tugged at it.
The wound was a distance away from the heart. It was the size of three fingers. It was not fully recovered, and the newly grown flesh had not healed, making it look uneven. She had seen a similar scar on her master. Her master had said that it was a gunshot wound.
Shen Qianshu’s face turned pale. Ye Ling also reacted and put on his sleepwear quickly.
He had been well-behaved this period of time, and that was because he did not want her to see this scar. After he came back from Iceland, he had been recuperating. He had almost recovered, but it was still quite frightening to look at.
“Master, this… ”
“It is not in the way and has already recovered.” His body was covered with scars of all sizes, and it was very frightening. She had heard Zhong Ran say that most of the scars were inflicted by himself. How about this scar?
Was it during the time in Iceland when he got sick, and he could not control himself at that moment?
Dual personality was mostly accompanied by depression. Although Ye Ling did not look like he had any depression, it seemed like he had suicidal tendencies. In all these years, he had committed suicide countless times. The scar on his wrist was so obvious that she dared not ask all along.
When you slit your wrist, was it painful?
What were you thinking at that time?
“This is a gunshot wound. Did you hurt yourself or were you hurt by someone else?” Shen Qianshu did not want him to avoid the question and stood persistently in front of him. The lust in her mind earlier had all disappeared.
Ye Ling’s face fell, and he could not face her scorching hot gaze at that moment. Shen Qianshu slightly bit her lip and pinched her own leg forcefully. She had exerted a lot of force, and her tears rolled down at that moment. “Master, I have never asked where you have been or what you have been doing. Whether it is dangerous, I have also never asked. All the scars on your body, how they came about, I have never asked, but this doesn’t mean that I don’t care. If the same scar had appeared on my body, and I didn’t say anything, would you forgive me?”
“It was an accident.” Ye Ling shouted roughly and angrily. “Do not cry!”
Women are just annoying. It’s just a wound, what’s there to cry about?
He did not want her to feel afraid.
Even more so, he did not want to let her know about his world to prevent her from being fearful and distancing herself away from him.
“Was it really an accident and not that you had hurt yourself?” Shen Qianshu sniffled. If it were an accident, it would be somewhat better. If he had hurt himself, she would really have a breakdown. She was deeply afraid that with a bullet, he would disappear without a sound at any moment.
“What are you thinking? If I have a gun and I want to die, I can just shoot myself in the head.”
Shen Qianshu stared with her eyes becoming round. She covered his mouth in a panic. “You are not allowed to say it.”
She paused and stared at him. “You cannot do this forever.”
“You have studied psychology. You know that I cannot promise you anything.” When he went crazy, he would even kill himself. What could he promise her?
Shen Qianshu looked at him, feeling wronged and with eyes filled with sadness. “Can’t you tell a lie to me?”
“I don’t want to lie to you.”
Shen Qianshu threw herself into his arms and hugged him tightly. She almost could not suppress the grievances in her heart. Her heart was all filled with him. She secretly vowed that regardless of what had happened in the past, she would be around in the future and that he would not end up in that state.
She would not allow!
Even if he was in front of the gates of hell, at the edge of the cliff, she would haul him back.
Shen Qianshu was unhappy for a while, and she could not sleep well. She kept thinking about him in her heart. She had the intention to ask him about the past, but she did not want to evoke his memories. To Ye Ling, those memories were certainly not anything good.
“Shen Qianshu, I will not go to that extent!”
