Chapter 206 Wang Qingyan in Her Eyes (Part 2)
"He restricted your freedom, forced you to do things you didn't like, and killed so many innocent people."
"It has caused countless families to be torn apart, people to be displaced, and all the people to live in dire straits, making you the target of everyone's hatred. How could you, young lady, think that such a heinous person has any redeeming qualities?"
Song Zhaohe didn't understand, and felt that this was not something Baili Ce should have said.
"Isn't this the way he seeks things?"
Song Zhaohe looked slightly annoyed, somewhat finding it hard to accept, "I...I don't understand."
Seeing that Song Zhaohe, though angry, never lost his temper with her and was still willing to listen to her continue, Baili Ce was very impressed.
A person as good as him will naturally meet an even better woman.
As for her?
She is just herself.
"In his world, he only believes that everything he does is right."
“He would feel that he had treated me gently, respectfully, and even very accommodatingly.”
“Anyway, I can’t accept it,” Song Zhaohe retorted sullenly, completely unable to understand how there could be such a person.
His behavior is erratic; he's practically a mad dog!
"Yes, I can't accept it either."
"But in his understanding, wouldn't he also be unable to comprehend our thoughts?"
Song Zhaohe clenched his fists slightly as he looked resolutely at Baili Ce. "Even if we have different perceptions, we cannot deny that he is an extremely cruel and wicked person."
“I have never denied that.”
"I have no regrets about what I did that day. If I had to do it again, I would not hesitate to do it again."
"then you?"
"I just want to tell adults that we can't change anyone's mind."
"In his world, his liking means being together, and my resistance means abandoning him after starting something."
Wang Qingyan is someone who never suffers from internal strife and always blames others.
"Given the young lady's abilities and family background, if he hadn't insisted on taking her by force, how could you have ended up like this?"
"Yes, without him, I wouldn't be in this situation."
She didn't pretend to be strong, nor did she hide away to grieve; she simply felt...
A person who already has no home should not cause trouble for anyone else.
"But I have to admit that I admire him to some extent, and I was once... attracted to him."
Song Zhaohe looked gloomy and didn't say anything more.
Bai Lize continued gently, "I don't know how much willpower it takes for a person to do what he did."
"But if it were me, I would never have had the perseverance to get through it."
Even a single fracture caused her excruciating pain.
It's truly unimaginable how he managed to keep going through all those cycles of regeneration and strengthening.
Six lifetimes and seven reincarnations—the torment they endured is beyond words to describe.
"He accomplished everything that ordinary people, geniuses, and even the Way of Heaven could not do."
"He was indeed cruel, vicious, and disrespectful, but on this point alone, I admire him greatly."
“…” Song Zhao listened quietly, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable.
Bai Li Ce was not speaking up for Wang Qing Yan, nor did he become fragile or sensitive because of the time he spent living with Wang Qing Yan.
But that's not entirely true either...
After a moment's thought, Song Zhaohe asked, somewhat presumptuously, "The young lady isn't entirely without feelings for him?"
"Yes," Baili Ce replied without the slightest hesitation.
She didn't feel ashamed of anything, and it never affected her choices or judgments.
"Could you... speak to Mr. Song about it?"
"This..." Bai Li Ce shifted his posture, resting his chin on his hand, as if chatting with a good friend.
When should we begin?
Bai Li Ce thought carefully for a moment, recalling the time she and Wang Qingyan went to Shucheng that year, "The first time I met Tong Niang was on a rather turbulent night..."
At that time, seeing women like Tongniang being abandoned by their husbands and relatives and offered up like toys to be abused by those soldiers, she wanted to save them, but she had no power to do so.
Wang Qingyan probably didn't want to save her in his heart, but he went because she said she "wanted to save her".
At that time, she didn't know his true nature, or rather, she didn't realize that he had gone to such an extreme degree of madness.
He felt extremely guilty for not being able to get back in time, which almost caused her to be bullied, and lost control of his emotions.
He would also get so angry that he would block her at the door because she deliberately avoided and distanced herself from him.
Because she likes dried fruit, they would peel a whole box of dried fruit one by one, carefully divide it into more than a dozen small compartments, and leave her a note telling her not to eat too much at once.
But in the blink of an eye, he tormented An Luoshi to the point of near death, drawing everyone in Shucheng into his trap.
Even when dealing with Gu Guards, they would kill them without hesitation, showing no mercy.
He would even use things like the "Heart-Slaying Stone" on her, yet he never believed the slanderous words others uttered against her, and would accompany her in the rain without asking why.
Even if she is angry or hateful towards her, she will not allow others to bully her.
This is so much better than some scoundrels who, because of a little misunderstanding or a few words of slander from others, cause a bunch of people to torment the other person and treat them like a servant.
But he was indeed ten or a hundred times more vicious than the average dog of a man.
Knowing full well that she cared about her aunt and the heads of the household, he still attacked them.
And he really did wait for her for a full five years...
"If I had to describe him, he would be like lightning in a torrential downpour—dazzling, magnificent, and incredibly awe-inspiring, yet extremely dangerous and absolutely untouchable."
Song Zhao listened blankly, speechless with surprise at her strange words, yet also longing for the look of amazement in her eyes when she described Wang Qingyan.
"I really won't love him."
"I absolutely do not condone his actions."
"But he has given me so much that is different, and that is something I cannot deny."
"Like that fireworks display, which was even more magnificent than the sunset and sunrise, I remembered it for a very long time when I first saw it."
"I think it will be a beautiful memory for me when I look back on it in the future."
How amazed was Wang Qingyan when he first showed her the iron flower performance?
Even the sight of fire would remind her of the dazzling lights that filled the sky, and of Wang Qingyan running towards her amidst the fiery spectacle.
So stunningly beautiful, so handsome and dashing.
That's the kind of feeling you'd never forget, even if you killed him again, or even if he killed you.
Actually, even though their marriage was complicated by too many interests, she still wants to say, "I don't regret marrying him."
"I didn't consider it a stain on my life."
"So, young lady understands him, right?"
"Yes"
“But…” Baili Ce looked at Song Zhaohe calmly, without the slightest fluctuation in his eyes.
"That's not the life I want."
"Heh..." Song Zhaohe lowered his head and smiled, his expression full of loneliness, yet also somewhat relieved.
Fortunately, she didn't reject him because of Wang Qingyan.
Lonely, she ultimately rejected him.
He rose and bowed, knowing roughly what to do. "Then I wish the young lady all her wishes fulfilled and a life of carefree joy."
Bai Li Ce quickly returned the bow, saying, "I also wish Lord Song a smooth official career and a successful life."
