Chapter 720: Once More Choice (Part Two)
“I think it’s quite good.” Chekhov also didn’t know how to comfort Xu Cheng as he said, “Boss you are actually quite handsome like this. The hair salons may not even be able to bleach someone’s hair this white, many people will be envious.”
“Ya, it’s not bad to look like this at all. Look at Vala and Diesel, they’ve been switching states between monsters and normal people, and I just think that’s cool.”
Lin Dong rolled his eyes at him, “Then do you want to change into an elephant? If you two can’t talk, then shut up.” Lin Dong couldn’t listen to them anymore, their words were like spreading salt on the wound.
Chekhov and Mario didn’t mean it as they smiled awkwardly and looked at Xu Cheng apologetically.
Xu Cheng put his hat back on and then silently walked over to the cabin.
Chekhov and Mario who were left behind looked at each other awkwardly, not knowing what to say.
Lin Dong scolded the two. “Master is already like this, talk less if you don’t know what to say. You guys are biased and think Master looks okay, but for the general public, for normal people like 师娘, how can they accept Master like this? Don’t think that I don’t know both of you were as shocked when he turned around back there. This is the truth.”
Xu Cheng came to the cockpit, and he had the pilot’s license so he could operate it.
As he operated, he heard their conversation from the inside.
“Actually, with my understanding of my sister-in-law, she would never dislike Boss because he became like this,” Chekhov said.
Mario nodded. “A woman who isn’t afraid of death would be afraid of a monster who wouldn’t hurt her?”
“That’s why you guys deserve to be single, you don’t understand.” Lin Dong sighed. “Anyone with pride would never show up in front of their loved ones with such an appearance and ruin the impression in their heart. Honestly, if you were a woman and your boyfriend looked like this, would you continue to date him and live with him? Can you wake up every day and see such a face for the rest of your lives? Definitely not! Master also doesn’t want to make her feel guilty or obligated to stay with him, so instead of this, it is better to just leave what was the best for Master’s wife.”
Xu Cheng listened to them in the cockpit, and he gripped the steering console tighter.
“There’s nothing bad with that.” Mario said, “Doesn’t he still have brothers like us? No matter what kind of monster we become, we are in the same world.”
Chekhov: “That’s right, there are always regrets in life. Weren’t we also born orphans without love and affection? The Deviant Mercenary Corp is a family.”
Xu Cheng’s eyes reddened slightly.
Yes, at least I still have these brothers.
Not long after, Lin Dong came into the cockpit and sat on the passenger seat, he looked at Xu Cheng and said, “Master, is this the consequence of losing the Tardigrade gene?”
Xu Cheng nodded. “Pretty much. I’m afraid I won’t have the Tardigrade gene to protect my body if I ever get fatal injuries again in the future.”
“Do you plan to really avoid Madam?” Lin Dong asked.
“Or what?” Xu Cheng looked at him and laughed bitterly. “To play a ridiculous Beauty and the Beast scene? You were right. I’m going to leave the best part for her, and get the ugly and horrible things out of her world.”
Xu Cheng then said to Lin Dong assertively. “If she wakes up, tell her that Xu Cheng is dead.”
Lin Dong looked at his Master’s eyes with tears, and he held back what he wanted to say as he walked back to the first class cabin after a long while.
He left Xu Cheng looking out at the night sky, not knowing what to do next.
When God closes another door, he opens a window.
Life could never be perfect.
Both times, he chose her instead of the country.
However this time, it seems that he wouldn’t have a life path with family involved, and there was only one way down the road…
