Chapter 110 I Didn't Know You Were Afraid Too
Chapter 110 I Didn't Know You Were Afraid Too
"You chose Mi Lan first! I almost died, and you insisted on saving Mi Lan!" Jiang Lin's face was icy cold, as if it could freeze everything, and he sneered as he looked down:
"When did you become so compassionate? There are countless players on Dead Soul Island, why is Mi Lan the only one who's special?"
Ji Xingyi couldn't believe it. The scene of Liu Yangyang holding Jiang Lin hostage flashed through her mind. So Jiang Lin did it on purpose? She didn't resist at all?
After discovering something amiss, Ji Xingyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "So you're testing me? Using Mi Lan to test me?"
"Yes!" Jiang Lin directly admitted that he had done it on purpose, deliberately allowed himself to be taken hostage, and deliberately did not resist. His cold voice could no longer suppress his inner anger: "But you chose him!"
She chose him both times!
"You're mine, but you actually chose him?"
Ji Xingyi's eyes widened, and tiny sparks of light gradually emerged from the deep pool of sorrow, sprouting like bamboo shoots after rain, eventually transforming into a dazzling galaxy. Trembling, she once again embraced the person she loved most: "Linlin, are you jealous? Because of me?"
Jiang Lin's face instantly darkened. He tried to push Ji Xingyi away, but she held him even tighter and said sarcastically, "I won't be jealous. I don't have that kind of human emotion!"
"I'm sorry," tears slid down her nose and into Jiang Lin's collar. Ji Xingyi lowered her head and buried her face in Jiang Lin's neck. "It's all my fault. Mi Lan only has one life, and I want him to live. If you die, I will either kill Liu Yangyang or commit suicide to be with you. I thought that way we could at least pass the level. I hope we can both survive. But I neglected your feelings."
Between us, you've always been the most rational one. I thought I was the only one who felt uneasy. I'm sorry, I didn't know you were also afraid of losing me.
"Why would I be afraid! I told you, I have no human emotions!" Jiang Lin's eyes flashed with a dark undercurrent, his tone devoid of any softness. Perhaps even Jiang Lin himself didn't notice that his body had lowered its resistance.
"I underestimated my abilities. I shouldn't have put you in such a dangerous situation in the first place. I failed to protect you." Ji Xingyi kissed the young man in her arms.
He was always the one who was irritable, vulnerable, and out of control. Jiang Lin always played the role of comforter, opening the only window for him in his dark world.
Ji Xingyi never imagined that even the most rational Jiang Lin would lose control because of him.
“Linlin,” Ji Xingyi released Jiang Lin, grasped Jiang Lin’s hand, and slowly brought the knife in Jiang Lin’s hand closer to his own neck: “I ignored your feelings, I hurt you, consider it my apology to you.”
"You want to commit suicide?" Jiang Lin almost gritted his teeth: "Let go!"
Ji Xingyi pressed the tip of the knife close to the most dangerous artery, stared into Jiang Lin's eyes, and said gently but earnestly, "Next time, we can talk it out properly. You can hit me or scold me, but you don't need to hurt yourself."
Ji Xingyi, who thought he was mature, was never really mature at all.
Jiang Lin, who thinks he's rational, might actually be the irrational madman.

The seven-colored gemstone dagger could cut through iron like mud; blood gushed out after just one touch.
"Your life is more important than mine. Don't do this again next time." Ji Xingyi wanted to kiss the young man in front of her, but the witch's knife was too fast.
Panic flashed in Jiang Lin's eyes, but before it could turn into fear, the tip of the knife cleanly severed Ji Xingyi's carotid artery.
It was something that could have been expected, but Jiang Lin was still stunned when he saw the blood cascading down and soaking their clothes, and when he saw the eyes that were staring at him gradually losing their luster.
The seven-colored gemstone dagger fell to the ground, making a lonely sound.
As the last orb of light flew into Emilia's body, a system notification sounded in her ear.
[System notification: Evacuation point information updated.]
Evacuation point: Mountaintop villa.

[System notification: Awaiting settlement...]
Jiang Lin helplessly embraced the warm body, but the corpse would not embrace him again.
An indescribable emotion caused Jiang Lin's lips to turn pale instantly, and her breathing became rapid and shallow, as if something was about to burst forth.
He never cared whether Mi Lan lived or died, and he didn't care about those points either.
What he couldn't stand was that Ji Xingyi actually argued with him over such a small thing.
He couldn't stand that the eyes that used to only look at him were now seeing other people.
Jiang Lin lowered her eyes, her hands beginning to tremble.
But before this, he had no idea that killing the person he loved with his own hands would feel like this.

Back to reality, 60 hours in the game is equivalent to just over 5 hours in real life. It's pitch black outside, and the clock by the bed shows 1 a.m.
Jiang Lin opened his eyes a few seconds earlier than Ji Xingyi. The lingering emotions made him involuntarily get up. After seeing the man who was still unconscious, he jumped on top of him, grabbed Ji Xingyi's collar, and slapped his handsome face.
The force of the blow woke Ji Xingyi up. Ji Xingyi's pupils shrank, but he did not resist and let Jiang Lin vent his emotions.
Zhang Hui, who was snoring on the second floor, was startled awake by his phone alarm. Ji Xingyi's health data showed abnormal fluctuations, causing Zhang Hui to jump out of bed and rush to the third floor to knock on the door.
"Xingyi, Linlin! What happened?"
Hearing no response and the commotion growing louder, Zhang Hui, who was outside, thought a thief had broken in and kicked the door open in a panic. What he saw left him speechless with shock.
He had imagined Xingyi would have a fit and beat Jiang Lin, but he never expected Jiang Lin to punch and kick Xingyi instead. Xingyi didn't fight back. What were these two troublemakers up to in the middle of the night?
We've been arguing several times today, how come it's still not over?
Zhang Hui couldn't take it anymore. He was in a dilemma, unsure whether to stop Jiang Lin or take a few punches for his master.
The sudden chill as the door opened brought Jiang Lin back to her senses. After pressing the man with blood trickling from his mouth onto the bed, Jiang Lin ordered Zhang Hui without turning her head, "Get out, close the door!"
Zhang Hui looked down at the broken door lock he had kicked, his face full of embarrassment. But when he looked up again, he saw Jiang Lin straddling Ji Xingyi and starting to take off his clothes.
"!!!" Zhang Hui's mind went blank: "???"
