Yu Jiu brought Shi Sheng to a graveyard.
The pitter-patter of rain washed over the steps. Yu Jiu supported Shi Sheng all the way up until they stopped in front of a tombstone.
The tombstone depicted a very amiable old man.
"She's Luo Sen's granddaughter," Yu Jiu slowly said. "I killed her father three years ago."
Luo Sen was the king of a foreign underground kingdom. When Yu Jiu met him, there wasn't a shocking scene.
Yu Jiu's mother's death was a severe blow to him. By the time he left the country, he was already suffering from mental illness. Yu Xingyun had brought him abroad to treat his illness.
There was a river outside the hospital. Yu Jiu often avoided the nurses and sneaked to the riverside.
That was where he met Luo Sen.
Luo Sen often fished there.
At first, Yu Jiu simply sat by the side in a daze. Luo Sen didn't mind the addition of a little fellow.
Until one day, Yu Jiu suddenly fell ill and walked towards the river. Luo Sen's face darkened as he picked him up.
Yu Jiu remembered him berating him in fluent Chinese. "Why are you seeking death at such a young age? Your mother didn't give birth to you to die. "
These words probably touched Yu Jiu, for he stared blankly at him.
Luo Sen later brought him back to his place. There, Luo Sen cooked him a simple meal.
After the meal, Luo Sen sent him back to the hospital. The people there were frantically searching for him.
Before they left, Yu Jiu suddenly grabbed Luo Sen and asked, "Can I still go look for you?"
"Of course." Luo Sen said something to the nurse. From then on, Yu Jiu only needed to tell the nurse once every day to leave the stifling hospital.
Yu Xingyun was very busy, so Yu Jiu was basically alone in the hospital.
Luo Sen was like an elder who accompanied him. Yu Jiu went to look for him every day. He would tell Yu Jiu about ancient legends, talk about the happenings in the city, and eat with him.
The first time Yu Jiu discovered Luo Sen's identity was when he was thirteen. When he went to look for him, he found the room unlocked, so he pushed the door open and entered.
In the past, when Luo Sen wasn't around, Yu Jiu would enter by himself. But this time, he was kidnapped as soon as he entered.
He saw Luo Sen arrive with a few men, and his kidnapper died right in front of him.
Yu Jiu wasn't afraid.
He felt his blood boiling, as if something was about to break out of its cocoon.
His confused life seemed to have found a shining point, a shining point that fascinated him.
For the first time, he begged Lawson to take him into that dark place.
Luo Sen had refused at first, but when he realized that Yu Jiu was making contact behind his back, he had no choice but to bring him along.
Yu Jiu was certified to have recovered from his illness. He told Yu Xingyun that he wanted to study in another country.
Yu Xingyun was busy to begin with, so after trying to persuade him a few times, he let him be.
In Lawson's words —
This was what he was born to do.
Yu Jiu had been by Luo Sen's side for five years. In these five years, Luo Sen valued him even more than his own son.
It was only in the end that Yu Jiu realized that Luo Sen had taken a liking to his abilities from the very beginning.
Lawson's son was a good-for-nothing. He ate, drank, and gambled. He was simple-minded and couldn't resist temptation. Lawson couldn't hand over the huge Dark Kingdom to him.
Yu Jiu's appearance gave him hope. He felt that his empire wouldn't be destroyed overnight.
That was why he had lured Yu Jiu into his trap and made him realize that he was different.
By the time Yu Jiu returned to the country at the age of nineteen, Luo Sen had already been ill for some time.
In the following year, he had been tested by Luo Sen and tried to assassinate him from all sides.
In the end, he inherited the position from Luo Sen.
As Luo Sen's only son, he was naturally unwilling and tried to pull him down time and time again. Yu Jiu had promised Luo Sen that as long as he didn't go overboard, he would spare his life.
But that time, he had overstepped his boundaries.
Shi Sheng quietly listened to Yu Jiu's narration.
"Do you hate him?" "He's the one who brought you into the dark abyss."
Yu Jiu shook his head. "I'm probably born this way. He's just my guide."
Although Luo Sen had used him, Yu Jiu had given him a familial love that Yu Xingyun hadn't given him.
Yu Jiu smiled at Shi Sheng. "Luo Sen's granddaughter ran into some trouble and came to me for help. He can be considered my master, so I naturally had to help her out."
"Do my parents know him?" Shi Sheng frowned. How could something belonging to his mother end up in this man's hands?
"Luo Sen's wife is your mother's aunt. When she was with Luo Sen, she severed all ties with her family. Many people thought she was dead."
Alright, everything made sense now.
The two descended the mountain side by side.
The misty rain blurred the tombstones behind them.
"When did you start liking me?"
Yu Jiu replied softly, "The night you followed Shen Jiayin."
"So you don't like the old Sheng Xia?"
"Mm."
He didn't like the old Sheng Xia. She loved to cry and didn't know how to fight back when he bullied her.
Weak, kind …
He didn't like any of these.
He liked people who could accept his darkness.
But when he returned, he found out that she would fight back fiercely. Then, when she followed Shen Jiayin …
He knew that he would definitely fall in love with her.
… …
Shi Sheng and Yu Jiu held their wedding as soon as they returned to the country.
The marriage between Glory World Corporation and HK Corporation became the hottest topic after Yang Huairen's incident.
On the day of the wedding, even the government sent people to congratulate them.
"Sheng Xia, you're actually getting married while I'm still studying. How did your little sweetheart act so quickly?"
Shi Sheng tugged at her wedding gown and narcissistically looked at herself in the mirror. "For someone as outstanding as me, of course he has to act fast."
"That makes sense." Yao Qin was dragged into the gutter. She looked at her phone and suddenly cried out, "Ahhh, it's almost time. Stop looking at yourself."
The wedding was held in a church, so there weren't many people present.
Shi Sheng was led into the church by Gu Yan.
She wore a pure white wedding gown and petals fluttered in the air.
Yu Jiu walked over to the music.
The two smiled at each other, their eyes filled with each other's figures. It was as if they were the only ones left in the world.
"Mr. Yu Jiu, do you take Miss Sheng Xia as your wife? Regardless of good times or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, will you love her without reservation and be loyal to her forever? "
"I do."
"Miss Sheng Xia, do you take Mr. Yu Jiu as his wife? Regardless of good times or bad, happy or sad, will you love him without reservation and be loyal to him forever? "
"I do."
I will do my best to build a kingdom of light for you.
