Yujin cried for a long time.
Ren Zhong did not comfort him.
After a long while, Yujin finally let go, lowered his head, and stood up again.
"Mr. Ren, tell me, whose fault is it exactly? I have hatred in my heart, I want revenge, but I can’t find a target for my vengeance."
Ren Zhong remained silent.
Yujin: "I think there’s something wrong, but I don’t know where the problem lies. I hate... I hate this..."
Ren Zhong rushed forward and covered Yujin’s mouth.
"Don’t say it, whatever you do, don’t say it out loud. Keep it in your heart."
Ren Zhong said slowly.
Yujin tried to struggle.
But now Ren Zhong’s physical index was over a hundred and forty, his strength was great, and Yujin could not break free.
Ren Zhong lowered his voice: "I understand your anger, but now is not the time. It’s not enough, we are not strong enough. We can’t do anything right now. Live on for your mother, don’t erase the final meaning of her sacrifice."
Ren Zhong’s tone was light, his gaze drifted towards the direction of the town’s north gate.
The Hunter must still be busy working over there.
Ren Zhong was also trying hard to mimic the tone Chen Hanyu had just used when talking about the elders’ final resting place.
His tone was calm, but in the same tone, there was a bit of something different.
Yujin was like he was struck by lightning, his eyes widened more and more, filled with persistent sorrow, burning anger, and a trace of indescribable realization.
After a long time, Ren Zhong released his hand.
"Mr. Ren, I understand now."
"It’s good that you understand. So, shall we go now?"
"Yes, don’t worry, I’m fine now."
As Ren Zhong was about to step out of the room, Yujin said from behind, "Mr. Ren, I won’t be staying in the house next door."
Ren Zhong turned back.
The faint glow of dawn shone through the window lattice, casting a rhombus shape on the ground.
The edges of the rhombus spread inwards.
At the intersection of light and dark, Yujin stood there, his lower legs illuminated by the sun, his upper body submerged in darkness.
Although he was speaking to Ren Zhong, his eyes were lingering elsewhere, as if longing for something unknown.
Ren Zhong nodded, "Alright."
"I won’t let my mother’s death be meaningless. I will become stronger soon, until I can follow in your footsteps. From tomorrow, let’s also stop the morning hunts. I’m holding you back. You do need a rest. When I feel I’m ready, I’ll come find you again."
Yujin didn’t spell it out, but the meaning was clear enough.
Ren Zhong thought for a moment, "Come find me at the Military Weapon Store this evening, and I’ll give you a gun. Here is 2000 points as start-up money, take it. Now I’m giving you your first order!"
"Become as strong as you can for me."
Walking out of the room, Ren Zhong pondered slightly.
There would now be two possibilities for Yujin.
Either he would meet an early demise within seven days.
If he survived, he would surely shine like a meteor, participating in the inevitable battle between him and Lin Wang.
Ren Zhong also thought, if he accidentally died in the upcoming time, given another choice, he should have paid more attention to details, keeping Yujin’s mother alive.
Even knowing that the death of the mother would inevitably further unleash the young man’s potential and hasten his awakening.
But Ren Zhong didn’t want him to come to realization in this way.
He didn’t want a Yujin who grew through hatred alone.
Pure hatred could only sustain momentarily, not a lifetime.
A true awakening should be built on a greater conviction.
But Ren Zhong couldn’t just rely on the forcible instillation of a worldview to make Yujin grow prematurely.
His own worldview had only gradually formed after 23 years of accumulation in the 21st century, allowing him to see things others couldn’t see and build ideals others couldn’t imagine.
Yujin’s path ahead was still long.
As for this time, since things had come to this, let the young man try to burn intensely once, just to see.
Returning to the Thunderbolt Car, which blocked the alley yet no one complained, Chen Han finally couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Ren, I actually want to know what you’re pursuing."
Ren Zhong turned back and looked at her clear eyes, "I’ll tell you after I’ve avenged you."
"Okay, I’ll wait. But actually..."
"My thoughts are the same as Yujin’s. Although I don’t quite understand what exactly you want to do, I will always follow you. You’re not like everyone else in this world..."
Ren Zhong once again covered Chen Hanyu’s mouth, "Don’t say it aloud. Just keep it in your heart."
