Chapter 771 - Consequences

"No!" Iris cried. "Please don’t leave. I’ll talk! Just don’t leave me alone tonight."

Jin Liwei stopped and sighed once again. "As much as I want to know the big secret that you share with Lu Zihao, I don’t want to force you if you don’t want to tell me. And it’s clear to me that you’re second-guessing yourself on whether to talk or not."

She opened her mouth but he raised a hand to stop her from speaking. "Let me finish."

Her mouth closed and she nodded. _{freewebnøvel.coɱ}

He ran his fingers through his damp hair. "I feel terrible that I’m upsetting you by wanting to know about the secret, whatever it is. You know that if I could, I would never want to upset you, especially right now that you’re pregnant. But baby..." His jaw tightened and his nostrils flared as he tried controlling his temper. "Baby, I’m upset too!"

She hugged herself as she fought another wave of tears from falling down her reddened eyes. She wanted to run to him and throw herself in his arms but she tamped down on the urge. What if he rejected her again?

"I’m not forcing you to tell me all your secrets," he said. "That’s not my intention at all. If there’s something that you don’t want to tell me, I can respect that. It won’t diminish my love and loyalty to you. It’s just that this particular secret that you and Lu Zihao have is bothering me so much that I want to punch another set of furniture just to ease my frustration. He provoked me with it earlier and now you’re reacting so extremely like this as if something bad is going to happen if you tell me. How do you expect me to feel with the two of you doing this to me?"

"Liwei..." Her voice trembled and so did her body. [This novel is a contracted work with W e b n o v e l . c o m (remove spaces).

"I never want to doubt you. I love you so much. But right now, I can’t help but feel suspicious. You share what seems like a big secret with another man who is—was a close sworn brother of mine. Tell me. If our situations were reversed, would you feel comfortable with that? Would you be happy if I share a big secret with another woman and I don’t want to tell you?"

Without even thinking, she automatically replied, "Of course not!"

Long Xiulan’s death might not be that big of an issue to Jin Liwei but the original Lu Zihao’s death would surely affect him in an excruciating way. The five sworn brothers’ bond was the strongest friendship that she had ever encountered in her two lives. It was a true bond of brotherhood. In fact, Jin Liwei was closer to his sworn brothers than to his own younger brother, Jin Chonglin.

He would be utterly devastated if he learned that his Fifth Brother was already dead and the one living now as Lu Zihao was a dangerous man who caused countless terrors all over the international criminal underworld. And that man was her big brother in their past lives.

Also, even without adding their dangerous identities as the Vetrovs into the mix, would Jin Liwei even believe and accept the idea of transmigration? If it didn’t happen to her and her big brother, she would never in a million years believe that such an absurd thing could happen in the real world. There was no legitimate research and concrete data backing it up.

Just the idea of transmigration or rebirth alone was already ridiculous. She wouldn’t be surprised if Jin Liwei would think of her as crazy. Heck, if she were in his shoes and somebody told her that transmigration was real, she would also think that person was crazy.

"Well? Are you going to tell me or not?" Jin Liwei’s voice interrupted her chaotic thoughts. "If not, I’ll have to leave and sleep in another room. I’m sorry but I’m too upset right now to be with you tonight. We’ve had a long day. Both of us are tired and upset. We can talk about this another day when you’re ready."
