Chapter 1032: Chapter 261: Thinking from Another’s Perspective
In fact, Mourinho’s approach was quite effective. Ever since he had shown himself a cold shoulder, constantly targeting and ostracizing him, a wall had indeed invisibly risen between Liu Zhenhan and Gortani, making even a simple greeting awkward.
How had things progressively worsened to the point of becoming irreconcilable today? Liu Zhenhan asked himself in the depths of his heart,
In that instant, Liu Zhenhan remembered many things. He recalled Mourinho’s recruitment, his promise that as long as he didn’t mention Gortani, he could bestow upon himself a swan beauty as a concubine! He also remembered how, upon their first meeting and half-jokingly during the banquet, he had proposed marriage to Gortani, which the main swan priest had reacted to with such anger---------------That was a classic case of "bringing up what should not be mentioned"!
Liu Zhenhan vaguely remembered making that absurd request twice, even betting his position as the Red Robes High Priest once! Surely from that moment, Mourinho must have seen him as a frivolous person and despised him even more. From battles above ground to those underground, from fights in emerald cities to the Imperial City, and finally parting ways, Liu Zhenhan now thought back and felt quite disheartened.
His emotions were indeed too agitated, and to hide any possible loss of composure, Liu Zhenhan bent his arm and touched his forehead as though deep in thought, using it as a cover.
A series of whimpering cries echoed unstoppably by Liu Zhenhan’s ear. It was Gortani’s voice, the cold-as-ice Swan Warrioress’s crying sound, fraught with helplessness. How Liu Zhenhan wished he could hold her in his arms and comfort her! But now he dared not even lift his head, for he was playing the role of a stern father.
In reality, we are all playing other roles. Liu Zhenhan smiled wryly in his heart.
Since things had escalated to this uncontrollable point, Liu Zhenhan had no choice but to persist in his act. The situation had become a deadlock; from the starting point, neither side was at fault, but sometimes the world works in curious ways.
Cui Beixi softly comforted Gortani, but the Swan Knight’s crying gradually faded away. Following the echoing sounds of footsteps on the stairs, Liu Zhenhan finally lifted his head-------------if Gortani were still here, he really didn’t have the courage to face this girl who had suffered so much for him.
Cui Beixi was silent.
Treizegar was silent.
Elder Horielle was as silent as a rock.
The atmosphere suddenly froze over, and even while playing the part of a father, Liu Zhenhan felt suffocated by the responsibility and burden that Mourinho was supposed to bear.
"I’ve made a decision." After considering for a long time, Liu Zhenhan raised his head, his voice hoarse, and said with unwavering certainty, "We’ll assign two Witch Doctors to use the Food Poison Gu to help them detoxify!"
"Your Majesty!" Elder Horielle was stunned, his voice trembling as he asked, "Your Majesty, why would you do this? We only have four witch doctors who possess the Food Poison Gu! This Life Gu can’t be cultivated again! What if in the future......"
"Your Majesty!" Caiyu City’s lord Treizegar interrupted even more excitedly, "We cannot afford to lose face! Let me handle this! I only need two thousand Elven Bow and Arrow shooters! No, a thousand will suffice! I promise I can make that damned rascal disappear forever!"
"Enough!" Liu Zhenhan roared in anger, suddenly standing up, his cold gaze sliding over the faces of the two Medusas: "Don’t ask so many questions! Do as I say! Go... go now, you’ll know why by tomorrow!"
"Alright." The two Medusas couldn’t bear the aggressive dominance in those imposing eyes. The overpowering nature of that look forced them to swallow all their words and submit by bowing their heads, then they respectfully took their leave.
Liu Zhenhan, feeling dejected, collapsed back into his chair. Originally, he had planned to take advantage without offering anything in return, but now he had completely vetoed that idea. He decided to return the second and third young masters to Tang Beryljenna, even if it meant taking them back every month for a short stay.
Subconsciously, Liu Zhenhan still denied that he was returning the second and third young masters to the Ice Phoenix instead of Mourinho, but he also had to admit that in doing so, he was actually solving one of Mourinho’s most difficult problems. As for why he was doing this, Liu Zhenhan was utterly confused. Was it out of compassion?
Liu Zhenhan suddenly felt bewildered---------------Was he really playing the role of Mourinho’s Liu Zhenhan? Or was he playing the role of Liu Zhenhan’s Mourinho?
Cui Beixi gazed steadily at Liu Zhenhan with her deep, ocean-like eyes for a long time.
"Jose, you and Richard are truly similar. I haven’t seen the kind of look you had just now for a long time, you’ve taken on too much lately." Tears welled up in the eyes of the beautiful serpent instructor: "I’m very happy that you’ve come to realize this, really......"
The beautiful serpent instructor’s voice gradually became choked up.
Liu Zhenhan knew that as Mourinho, he should be wiping away the tears of the beautiful serpent instructor, but he just couldn’t bring himself to do it. He didn’t know why, but his subconscious strongly resisted doing so.
"Nico, it’s all in the past, isn’t it?" Liu Zhenhan could only attempt to comfort the beautiful serpent instructor with a few words.
