Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories

When Mu Yuan did something, he was usually ready to stand up and be responsible for it. He would not deny it. Regardless of which area it was being looked at, the evidence pointed towards him. Even if Jack was furious, he also knew that Mu Yuan was not someone who would kill the innocent.

Although his brother was a little irritable, he was not a bad-hearted person. He would play pranks, but he would not really make someone die. He had his own limits for good and evil.

Mu Yuan was someone whose morals were above the law. He would not kill the innocent even more. The only explanation was… Jack looked at Shan Ning who was lying on the ground. He killed Lehman because of Shan Ning.

Jack held his gun.. Mu Yuan was already on the verge of crumbling, but he kept enduring it. Looking at him, it was far from how calm he had been.

If he died, could everything be easily solved? He also would not need to face such a complicated situation. But he had never thought of escaping. Was this considered as escaping?

Jack…

“You killed my brother for Shan Ning?”

Mu Yuan was silent. Jack suddenly pointed his gun at Shan Ning, who was on the ground. It was not known whether he was dead or alive. Mu Yuan swiftly stopped him and blocked the front of the gun. “Go away!”

Jack was furious. Mu Yuan shook his head gently. If it was not for him, Shan Ning would not have come to this wretched place. He also would not be harmed by others. He was even lying on the ground now, and it was not known whether he was dead or alive. He did not know how to go and repay all these. He would never let Jack kill him again.

“It is all my fault. Kill me. It has nothing to do with him,” Mu Yuan said. He was practically begging Jack. “Jack… ”

“Shut up!”

“If you want to kill him, you have to pass through my corpse.”

Time seemed to have stood still.

They had been in love. No one understood Mu Yuan better than him. He was absolutely not bluffing, and he was also not relying on his confidence. He was being sincere. It was because of this, Jack’s head was pierced until there were waves of pain.

“Xiaoyuan…” Jack used his hand to stroke his face gently. He had kept thinking about this face for many years. Time did not leave any traces on his face. They practically did not have any real quarrels before.

He thought that it would be like this forever.

He himself thought that it would be forever.

“For your own good, and for my good, don’t appear in front of me from now on.”

His palm still had a little warmth. However, the words he said made Mu Yuan completely crumble. Perhaps, not meeting again in this lifetime was the best ending for them. He already could not think of any better ending for everyone.

Mu Yuan’s eyes were extremely dry. His eyes were being blown by the wind in the desert until they were in pain.

“Alright.”

He saw Jack carrying the two corpses up the plane. The helicopter flew far away. Both Mu Yuan’s legs softened, and he kneeled in the yellow sand. Suddenly, he punched fiercely into the yellow sand. He hated it.

He could not shout a single word from his throat, but he tasted a little blood.

Jack…

Did he ruin everything with his own hands?

Wesley could not believe it when he saw Jack bringing the corpses back. He let out a roar. “What happened?”

Jack looked extremely terrible, but he did not say anything. He counter-locked himself in the house. Wesley pounced over and held his brother’s hand. His body was completely cold.

“Bring Shadow over to me.” Wesley was in a rage.

…

Wesley threw a gun in front of Jack. His eyebrows were tightly furrowed. As he was restrained, his whole body was tense. “Shadow said that the situation back then was Shan Ning had said something, and Lehman pointed the gun at him. Hence, Shan Ning pulled the gun from Mu Yuan’s body and shot Lehman. He said that it was a counterattack to defend himself.”

“Counterattack to defend himself?” Wesley was in a rage. “Lehman did not even undo the safety bolt!”
