Chapter 899 - A Promise in the Next Life
Chapter 899: A Promise in the Next Life
He had never thought that one day she would agree to marry him because of Jun Mosheng.
Although she nodded her head and agreed, he should feel happy, instead, he felt very sad and lost deep down…
What was happening to him?
Lin Xuanji looked at Lu Jinwen. The man’s face was lowered and his entire body was enveloped in loneliness and desolation.
All these years, they had fought like cats and dogs to the bitter end, refusing to give in. This man had always exuded the presence of an Emperor above everyone else and it was the first time she was seeing him like this.
Lin Xuanji’s heart throbbed in pain. She did not know if the pain was due to the toxins, or… was her heart hurting for him?
At this moment, the doors of the helicopter opened and a man wearing a baseball cap nodded his head respectfully at the East Duke. “Duke.”
“Bring President Jun up,” the East Duke commanded.
Two shrill cries rang out and time seemed to slow as Jun Mosheng collapsed onto the ground.
“Mosheng!” Lin Xuanji promptly pressed on Jun Mosheng’s heart. Warm blood was smattering out and she did not know how to stop the bleeding. What should she do? Big droplets of tears fell down her face. Lin Xuanji was smiling amidst her tears. “Mosheng, it’s okay. We’ll go to the hospital now! You’ll be fine!”
The blood only continued to stain Jun Mosheng’s white shirt and formed beautiful plum blossom flowers. Jun Mosheng looked at the night sky. The stars were twinkling brightly and they were so beautiful. He felt warmth on his face from Xuanji’s tears.
He breathed lightly and his lips curved into a smile.
Jun Mosheng clutched Lin Xuanji’s hand and said, “Xuanji, do you still remember the words I said to you in the ship cabin many years ago?”
In the ship cabin many years ago…
In that precarious situation, although Lu Jinwen had also lunged forward but he was slightly slower and now, his entire body froze.
That year in the ship cabin, she had been captured by Lu Jinwen. Before leaving, she had said – ‘Lu Jinwen, if there’s a next life, I’ll pray to the heavens that I don’t get to know you.’
Now, Lin Xuanji’s vision was blurry from her tears. She had never owed anyone in this lifetime… except for Jun Mosheng.
Jun Mosheng was a sentimental man his whole life and did not marry because of her. He did not have any descendants either. He had given her the best and most unconditional kind of love.
“I remember… I’ll always remember…”
‘Jun Mosheng, we aren’t fated in this lifetime but I’ll betroth myself to you in my next lifetime.’
She had broken her ties with Lu Jinwen in this lifetime. In the next lifetime, she and Jun Mosheng would be together.
She remembered.
That was good enough for him.
Jun Mosheng raised his hand to wipe off Lin Xuanji’s tears. He could not bear for her to shed even one tear. “Xuanji, you’ll be mine in the next life, alright?”
Those words seemed to drive Lu Jinwen out of his stupor and he walked forward two steps. He would not allow it! She would always belong to him in her current and next lives!
But just then, he saw a bullet fly across from the corner of his eyes. It was swiftly flying towards Lin Xuanji.
This time, the bullet was fired by the East Duke.
The East Duke had fired a shot at Lin Xuanji.
Lu Jinwen’s eyes narrowed and promptly blocked her from the bullet. The bullet pierced through his left arm and he felt a stinging pain immediately.
At this moment, he heard Lin Xuanji’s voice. “Mosheng, I promise you!”
Lin Xuanji nodded her head, promising Jun Mosheng.
Lu Jinwen clenched his fists. He was too late.
Old Madam Lu was standing by the side and watching this scene. She gave a sigh. Jinwen and Xuanji had already come to this point today. On the other side, Lu Fan did not even look at his own elder brother. His brother was too pitiful!
At this moment, Jun Xiwan alighted from the wolf’s back and knelt beside Jun Mosheng. Tears stained her face and she cried out as she sobbed, “Uncle!”
Jun Mosheng’s eyes were starting to daze out. He held Jun Xiwan’s hand and wanted to speak but he could not do so. He could only grasp Jun Xiwan’s hand tightly.
Soon after, when Jun Xiwan’s country was destroyed and she encountered deep trouble, she would always feel the love Uncle transmitted to her when he was grasping her hand.
Jun Xiwan nodded her head. “Uncle, Xiwan understands what you’re trying to say. Xiwan swears to you that as long as I’m around, I will protect the peace of Country Z on behalf of Uncle.”
Good. That was good.
Jun Mosheng curved his lips in content. He lay in Lin Xuanji’s arms and gradually closed his eyes.
Jun Mosheng passed on.
Lin Xuanji and Jun Xiwan broke down, sobbing uncontrollably in grief.
…
After witnessing this scene, Old Master Lin wanted to wheel himself away on his wheelchair. At this moment, a small plane stopped and the wheelchair moved into the cabin. Old Master Lin closed the door.
Just then, he heard someone saying, “You still want to leave after killing my Uncle? I want your life!”
Old Master Lin raised his eyes. Jun Xiwan’s eyes looked even brighter and more enchanting after her tears. She got up, flipped herself over, jumped onto the wolf king, chasing after him.
Old Master Lin’s expression changed. “Set off now!”
“Yes sir.”
The plane started to rise towards the sky.
Everyone witnessed the scene of Jun Xiwan riding on the wolf and pursuing him!
