Chapter 331 - 331 IT’S NOT A SHACKLE
His trembling hand took out a small object from within the sleeve, and then he carefully opened his palm, only to see the small black bead that Wu Jinhai had produced after they had a hot activity last night.
“This… this bead—”
“Yes. You can destroy it if you want to kill me, Bai Chen. You don’t even need to use Wu Jiang to kill his father.”
Before Bai Chen could finish his sentence, Wu Jinhai cut him off, and he stared at the older man in disbelief. He thought that it was ridiculous when Wu Jinhai could even produce a black bead after they had finished sexual activity. The black bead was produced by Wu Jinhai’s dick as if Wu Jinhai’s cum had black color before it hardened and became a small bead. That was a ridiculous thought, of course, but Bai Chen still felt embarrassed thinking that.
Perhaps it simply wasn’t something he should focus his mind on at the moment, and he knew that he should focus on something else as he asked, “Why did you give me half of your soul, Wu Jinhai?”
From Wu Jinhai, Bai Chen knew that the small black bead worked like a GPS, and he thought the man had given him the bead so he couldn’t run away once again. His every move would be monitored, and that was why Wu Jinhai could find him anywhere as long as he had the bead with him.
The black bead looked like a shackle if Bai Chen thought about it, but just now he had learned about another function of the bead, and now he knew that Wu Jinhai didn’t mean to shackle him with the small object.
“I gave you that bead because I know how sometimes you still have doubts in your heart about me, Bai Chen.”
.....
“…” Bai Chen couldn’t answer this time.
The first time he doubted Wu Jinhai was when he found out how the man had toyed with him by pretending to be Zhu Ge, and the second time he doubted the man was when he finally regained his memories from his previous life. Sure enough, Wu Jinhai didn’t know the real reason behind the second hesitation, but perhaps the man was afraid that there would be a third time, and that was why he gave Bai Chen half of his soul as a guarantee.
It was a big commitment, and Bai Chen knew that the black bead was even more precious than a ring. Thus, his trembling fingers ended up enveloping the black bead once again, but he didn’t use his full strength, afraid it would be crushed by his fist.
Last night, he had told Wu Jinhai that he trusted him once again, but when Bai Lang brought him to another dimension so the two of them could talk, Bai Chen even asked the little wolf whether Wu Jinhai would betray him again or not, and it showed how Bai Chen indeed still couldn’t fully trust Wu Jinhai in his heart.
But now that Wu Jinhai gave him half of his soul, how could he still doubt the man in red?
In the end, Bai Chen broke down the wall of doubt that had protected his heart, and he rested his forehead on Wu Jinhai’s shoulder as a single tear fell from his left eye. “I’m sorry, Wu Jinhai.”
Bai Chen rarely uttered an apology. Whether it was in his previous life or this life, he wasn’t someone who would easily admit that he was wrong. But just now he made a sincere apology, and even Wu Jinhai was taken aback after hearing it.
But Wu Jinhai seemed somewhat relieved after hearing the apology, and he raised his hand before using it to hug Bai Chen from the side. “I don’t need your apology, Bai Chen. I just need your trust,” he whispered to the man who still rested his head on his shoulder.
Wu Jinhai’s shoulders were broad and warm, and that was why Bai Chen felt comfortable as he rested his head on the shoulder. As if the shoulder could help him shoulder his burden too.
“I believe in you, Wu Jinhai,” the werewolf whispered back. “No matter what happens, I will always believe in you, and there will not be a day when I have to destroy our daughter. Instead, I will protect our daughter with everything I have until the end.”
The small bead was still in Bai Chen’s hand, and he was still carefully holding it in his palm so he wouldn’t crush it accidentally.
Half of Wu Jinhai’s soul was inside the bead, so it would be very dangerous if the bead fell into the hands of bad people, right? That was why Bai Chen had promised himself that he would protect the bead with all his might. Wu Jinhai had made a big commitment to him, and Bai Chen also wanted to commit to the man.
And Wu Jinhai smiled after hearing Bai Chen’s words, but then he spoke solemnly, “I’m glad if you can trust me, so you’ll also trust me when I’m about to infiltrate Dong Lang, right, Bai Chen? I know you are worried about my safety, but you can rest assured because not even a strand of hair will fall from my head when I’m in Dong Lang.”
Bai Chen’s body stiffened upon hearing Wu Jinhai’s words, and he carefully straightened his body before glaring into that pair of brown eyes.
Right. They had previously talked about how Wu Jinhai would infiltrate Dong Lang tonight, and it was unlikely that Bai Chen would be able to change the man’s mind no matter how hard he tried.
So, before he could give a reply, Bai Chen suddenly leaned forward before pressing his lips against Wu Jinhai. It was just a peck, and the Werewolf Prince leaned back slightly before whispering, “I believe in you, Wu Jinhai. I know you will come back to me.”
