Lorraine sat at her workbench and watched Consul's video over and over again.
He was tall with exquisite features and his whole person was as perfect as a picture delicately drawn with brush and pen.
Formerly before putting on a mask and black robe, Yin Nanzhao's appearance was like this. No wonder Chen Sha's mother would call him the 'angel's face'.
Lorraine's brain was like turning into a battlefield.
One clamoring "Not him! It can never be him!" while the other clamoring "It's him! It must be him!"
Lorraine held her head in pain. After all, was Qian Xu Yin Nanzhao?
Lorraine recalled each scene since she had met Consul attentively.
The first time she saw him was when she first arrived in Alicata. He did not see her but she saw him.
He wore black combat attire standing on a primordial planet full of dangers. While talking and laughing, he cut open a sharp-toothed bird and splashed blood all over the room. Qing Yue fainted from terror so she also had to pretend to faint too.
Meeting for the second time, to be precise, she heard only his voice.
Feng Lin requested him to vote whether she could join Alicata Life Research Institute or not.
His just said a few careless words that changed her fate and made her wish fulfilled.
The third time meeting him was ten years later at Consul's welcome back party.
He had a temperatureless mask on his face, thousands miles away rejecting people. He sat alone in his exclusive chair and looked at the cheerful crowd talking, laughing, and toasting each other without involving.
The fourth meeting was at his mansion.
Under the dim light, he worked at his desk like a normal person, but when he turned around, it was a fake face with no normal human expression.
...
Restless life of hundred faces
Endless turmoil of mortal past
Light of memory were like great waves washed away sands and scoured out each submerged golden grain foreshore.
He held her wrist to prevent her from drinking boiling hot tea.
From then on, the tea in front of her would be the exactly perfect temperature to drink every time they met.
...
On the Big Twin Moon, after she drank all Deep Blue Green, that night she dialed Qian Xu's personal terminal hundreds of times and no one answered.
A few days later, when she was in class, the travel-worn Consul suddenly broke the door in. He didn't even take time to change clothes and blood was still stained on his boots.
...
Before going to rock forest, Consul gave her 'Death God's Meteor Shower' for self-protection.
Although wielding great power, it could only be shot once a year. Such a limited attribute did not seem to be prepared for dealing with the great strength Dragon Blood unit at all, but rather seemed to prepare for the post-mutated change ferocious beast.
...
In the rock forest, when she pointed the gun at Consul's head, he did not resist.
Everyone thought he was afraid of 'Death God's meteor shower'. However, a man who had returned countless times from life to death in rain of bullets. A man with 3A-level strength faced a person with one arm missing who had just advanced to A-level strength. Could he unable to resist just because of a single gun?
...
When she was bitten off by that beast, blood splashed on Consul's face.
In that instant, she was held tightly in his arms. She was trembling, and he seemed to be trembling too.
...
When startled knowing that Shao Han and Ye Jie were coming, she decided to run away.
The keen and sharp Chen Sha didn't even aware that she wanted to escape, but Consul appeared on the flying car, making her escape plan failed before even being carried out
...
At Shao Han and Ye Jie welcome party, Consul could not eat nor drink, totally no need to attend, but he was there from the beginning to the end.
When she was hugged by Ye Jie and was caught in a nightmare dared not to move even she wanted to, Chen Sha who was by her side thought they were just showing warmth like brothers sisters who hadn't seen each other for many years, but Consul helped her out.
The specially gathered information of Shao Han and Ye Jie, seemingly was for Chen Sha to read, but specifically instructed Chen Sha to show it to her.
...
Lorraine covered her face, tears streaming overflow fingers gap.
She saw Qian Xu's change with her own eyes, and also saw Consul's rotten hands and rotten face with her own eyes. There was no trace of evidence to link two completely different people together. Even the sly and paranoid Zi Yan didn't think about it this way.
It seemed that everything was just her absurd fantasy.
Yet obsession was like a lantern and love was like a duster, wiping away layers upon layers of bewitched hearts dusted for years until it's clean. Her heart was bright as mirror and already told her the answer.
However, the mirror's reflection was Yin Nanzhao not Qian Xu!
Lorraine's heart was like piercing with a knife, so painful that she could barely breathe, more sorrow and desperate than the moment Qian Xu died.
When Qian Xu died, the love Qian Xu gave her did not die. His warmth he gave her still supported her to move forward.
No matter how hard life was, there was once a person in this world who loved her tenderly and cherishly, treating her as a treasure and loving her as one's life.
But now there was nothing left, even Qian Xu's love was gone.
No one would treat her as a treasure. No one would love her as one's life.
The one she loved deeply, the one she obsessed with, was just a character acted by Yin Nanzhao.
Perhaps, he had devoted sincerity, but no matter how sincere it was, it was just a scene of extra devotion for a show.
He watched her torn arm and scraped heart, watched her depressed and suffered, and watched her sad and at a loss. Perhaps, it was not that he never felt pity, but nothing more than a pity.
Yin Nanzhao was not Qian Xu!
How could her Qian Xu treat her this way?
When she was delighted with great joy because Qian Xu promised to accompany her to rock forest, nevertheless Yin Nanzhao handed her Death God's gun with his own hands and set a plan to let her kill the person she loved wholeheartedly.
From the beginning, he had already set the cruelest end for her.
Ten years of warmest and most beautiful memories had all turned to ashes.
Thinking of her racking her brains trying her best to kill Ye Jie in order to avenge Qian Xu even at the expense of her life, Lorraine burst out laughing.
Sure enough for the world's high-end Yin Nanzhao with angel's face and devil's heart!
The person who killed Qian Xu was Yin Nanzhao, but the person who created Qian Xu was also Yin Nanzhao.
Should she kill him with a knife, or should she give him a best acting award to thank him?
Tears rolled down but there was no end to sorrow.
At this moment, she would rather have dust covered on her heart and never knew the truth. At least she can naively believe that there was someone had given her the most sincere and beautiful love.
