Chapter 132 - Even Without Me (2)



Qin Zhi led his sister out of the room and down the stairs, where Qin Zhihao was waiting for them. 

"Milord," he politely greeted his master before regarding Shen Minyao. "Mistress Daji." 

"I go by the name Shen Minyao now. The Daji you all know has been long dead," Shen Minyao corrected him. 

"Miss Shen." Qin Zhihao nodded at her. 

"Bring her a fresh liver she could eat." Qin Zhi told the old man before leading his sister to the dining area of his huge mansion. "Also some human food the white cat could eat." 

Xiao Bai\'s eyes sparkled in delight upon hearing it. "Thank you, Lord Qin! You are the best! 

"Wow, Lord Qin surely has a lot of money to burn." Xiao Bai then commented when they passed the lavish decorations in the hallway. 

"He has lived a long life. It\'s impossible for him not to gain wealth from all those years." Shen Minyao eyed the back of her brother. There was something she had been itching to ask since they met. 

"So have you found your wife in this era?" She asked, wanting to see if Qin Zhi was aware of Li Fei\'er\'s existence. 

Qin Zhi\'s steps faltered, his whole body stiffening for a moment before he resumed walking ahead of them. 

"Don\'t be ridiculous. Feng Jiu has been long gone, like Su Daji," he replied without looking back at her. 

He said no more, and Shen Minyao remained silent while Xiao Bai glanced between the fox demon siblings. Of course, he knew his mistress\'s motive for asking Qin Zhi such a question. The two might seem cold to each other as siblings, but they trusted each other more than anyone else. 

"What if she is reborn as a human and lives in this era? What will you do?" Shen Minyao then continued her questioning. 

"What will I do?" Qin Zhi chuckled, half of his face covered by darkness. "What can I do? I wasn\'t able to protect my mortal wife back then. If she was alive today, I wish she would lead a happy and normal life this time." 

"Even without you?" 

"Even without me." Qin Zhi\'s answer shocked Shen Minyao. 

"How could you say that? Isn\'t she your wife? I thought you would want to find her if ever she gets reborn in this world." Her tone was one filled with disappointment towards her brother. She initially thought that he would be happy to know that their Little Jiu was alive again. 

"She\'s still a human, and I\'m still a demon; what changed then? Our paths might have crossed, but our future together would only lead to disaster. Haven\'t you said it yourself? We, demons, live in a different world from humans. If Jiu is alive, then that\'s good. I can only hope she will be happy in this lifetime." 

Shen Minyao huffed in annoyance. While it was true that she said those words before, Qin Zhi and Feng Jiu\'s situation had always been different. Because they were two important persons in her life, how could she not wish for them to be happy? However, she supposed what Qin Zhi said was right. 

If there was a chance that Li Fei\'er wouldn\'t be dragged in a war between demons and humans, then perhaps she could lead a happy life… without them. 

"You still love her, huh." She chuckled. 

"She\'s my wife. Whether it was in the past or present, I love her." He affirmed.

"So what if she was reborn as a man instead?" Shen Minyao hid her grin behind her hand as she took a seat across from her brother. She liked the way Qin Zhi stiffened in his seat as he considered her question. 

"Stop messing up with my thoughts already." He groaned, but he had to admit he had never considered such a possibility. "And before you say more, I\'m not planning to look after her if she was reborn." 

Shen Minyao hummed and hid her smile behind her cup as she drank water. 

\'Oh, dear brother. Even if you say you won\'t look for her, you will eventually find and meet her again.\' She thought, and she was certain of that. So long as the two were in the same city and connected to Shen Minyao, there was no way that the husband and wife wouldn\'t meet in this lifetime. 

However, should she let them meet? The fox woman pondered. If she wanted Li Fei\'er to lead a happy life, then she should disappear and never let the young woman meet her older brother. 

The old human came back with a trolley in tow. He then served Shen Minyao a plate of fresh liver. 

"You keep a cow\'s liver in stock? At least it\'s fresh." The fox woman said as she picked up the silverware and started taking her meal. Ever since her awakening, she had only eaten livers once, and that never occurred again. "Aren\'t you going to eat?"

"I told you, I keep the other demons under my protection. It\'s only natural for me to be ready for guests. We only feed on animal livers, though. Human livers are not on the menu," Qin Zhi said. "And don\'t worry about me. I don\'t need to feed for some time." 

He had fed on some demons before he met Shen Minyao back at the fourth district, so unlike her, he wasn\'t feeling any pang of hunger at the moment. Shen Minyao needed it more than him, anyway. 

"So… what do you plan now?" He questioned her. 

"Collect more demon orbs. What else?" 

"And your human contractor?" He arched a slender brow at her. 

Shen Minyao stopped eating and glared daggers at the white fatty cat that was eating nonstop next to her. 

"You told him?" 

"I\'m sorry, Milady, but I couldn\'t lie to Lord Qin," Xiao Bai said in defense. Why was his mistress trying to hide Zhao Yichen\'s identity, anyway? It wouldn\'t be that she didn\'t want others to perceive him as her weakness, right?
