231: Chapter 231 He seduced her and controlled her...

"It is precisely because she is my Cub that I am not worried about her."

Tang Ruan: ...

Tang Ruan felt he had just said something completely useless.

Perhaps Heng Zhou had been locked up for too long and had become a bit abnormal; his laughter just now was a bit—uh, perverted...

Suddenly, Heng Zhou said: "I heard that Guo Guo was taken out by someone."

Of course, he hadn't just heard it; he had peeked into Jiao Luo's mind.

"Hmm." Tang Ruan acknowledged.

Heng Zhou: "A beastman who used to deliver food to Prince Jiaoli—guess why he would risk taking my Cub out?"

Tang Ruan looked at him.

"Prince Jiaoli? Aren't you Prince Jiaoli?"

Heng Zhou briefly explained his relationship with Prince Jiaoli, as well as the fact that Jiao Luo was actually Princess Jiao Yi, and that they wanted to take his blood to enhance their Energy.

Tang Ruan's mouth opened slightly, "This Jiao Clan is too perverted!

So, your soul was captured and brought here, not voluntarily cast into this place."

"Uh-huh!" Heng Zhou's tone sounded indifferent, "So I originally wanted to let Prince Jiaoli commit suicide to end this lifetime early.

Later, I discovered that I couldn't die, so I simply went into a deep sleep, thinking it would be fine to just muddle through this lifetime.

I didn't expect—"

He suddenly turned his face toward Tang Ruan.

He didn't expect that she would appear.

Thus, he could no longer stay asleep...

He couldn't help but seize this only chance to be with her...

Seeing him facing her and suddenly falling silent, Tang Ruan asked: "Didn't expect what?"

Heng Zhou: "I didn't expect that Prince Jiaoli's soul power would disappear, while I was forced to awaken."

"Then, you had Guo Guo with someone else," Tang Ruan speculated.

"Cough, cough... cough, cough... cough..."

Heng Zhou suddenly couldn't catch his breath and began to cough violently.

Tang Ruan walked over thoughtfully and patted his back.

After all, he could be considered her big brother.

Tang Ruan felt a kind of instinctive concern for him.

With great difficulty, he steadied his breathing.

The veins on the back of Heng Zhou's hand bulged slightly, "I didn't have a child with someone else!"

Tang Ruan thought for a moment.

"Then it was Prince Jiaoli who had her with someone else.

I get it. You two share one body. So, you also view Guo Guo as your own Cub."

No wonder he didn't care about Guo Guo.

Heng Zhou suddenly became anxious.

"Guo Guo is mine!

Although I share a body with him,

it was when I occupied the body that I, with—"

Tang Ruan blinked.

Although Heng Zhou couldn't see her, he could feel that she seemed to be intently waiting for him to continue.

"With whom did you have her?"

"You don't know her."

"Then where is she?"

Tang Ruan was curious why, when Hu Che used Mind Control on Guo Guo, she thought she had neither a father nor a mother.

"She went to... a very distant place."

Tang Ruan: So she died.

She said "Oh."

Her tone sounded completely indifferent.

Heng Zhou lowered his head in disappointment.

Little A-Wu didn't even have a single emotional fluctuation upon hearing that he had a Cub with "someone else."

Although his contract with little A-Wu was orchestrated by King Jiao,

he was truly very happy.

At that time, as long as he didn't appear, King Jiao couldn't do anything to him.

Yet he simply couldn't control himself; he knew this was his only chance to be with her.

Because once she awakened, there would only be Fen Tian in her heart.

Thus, like a thief, he stole the time that should have belonged to Fen Tian.

At that time, he thought that as long as he didn't awaken, the life of an ordinary beastman would end quickly.

And in this short lifetime, little A-Wu belonged only to him.

So, he reached an agreement with Prince Jiaoli.

He would appear occasionally to let King Jiao take his blood, and before Prince Jiaoli died, he would help him tamper with little A-Wu's memory, making her forget the time she spent with him.

In this way, he could possess her in this "lifetime" without anyone knowing.

However, things changed later on.

After he appeared frequently,

he realized that King Jiao insisting on finding him a Mistress wasn't just to take his blood.

It was even more so to get his Cub's blood.

Furthermore, he was worried that King Jiao would discover that little A-Wu was also a Servant of the Beast God.

So he planned with Prince Jiaoli to send her away.

However, at that time, because he had been sleeping for years and his Energy was Sealed by the Jiao Clan,

in the end, although he sent her away, his physical body was severely damaged.

Prince Jiaoli at the time probably thought he was doomed, and according to their agreement, he tampered with her memories.

It was just unexpected that his soul did not disappear along with Prince Jiaoli's soul.

Now, A-Wu has forgotten him, and his lifetime has not yet ended.

Only he remembers the time spent with her...

"Heh!"

Suddenly, Heng Zhou laughed self-deprecatingly.

"What are you laughing at?" Tang Ruan asked.

"Do you not remember what happened in the Jiao Clan?"

Tang Ruan: "I don't remember. What happened?"

Hadn't he already asked her that once?

Heng Zhou: "Nothing."

Tang Ruan: This guy is sick!

Asking and then refusing to tell her, it made her curiosity explode.

Heng Zhou turned his face away, no longer facing her.

Those beautiful memories were stolen by him in the first place.

Now, she had encountered Fen Tian again.

Furthermore, just now, from her memories, he had already seen the importance of Fen Tian to her.

If she really remembered what he had done to her,

she would only loathe and hate him.

At that time, her consciousness was chaotic, ignorant like a child.

Yet he seduced her, controlled her, did those things to her, and even had a Cub with her.

Heng Zhou had killed as many beastmen as there were stars, and he had never felt guilty.

But whenever he thought about how he had controlled little A-Wu to do such things, he felt like a heinous sinner.

He didn't even dare to imagine if one day she found out.

How much she would hate him, how much she would loathe him...

"Heng Zhou?"

Tang Ruan suddenly called him.

Heng Zhou's body stirred.

Tang Ruan: "You still haven't told me why you aren't worried about Guo Guo."

After hearing him say so much, what Tang Ruan cared about most was still Guo Guo's safety.

"Because she is my Cub."

Tang Ruan: ...

Fine, fine, fine! She shouldn't have asked.

Tang Ruan recalled how arrogant he looked in front of Jiao Luo just now.

And compared to his slumped shoulders now, they were like two different people.

Sure enough, those who generally use mental attacks all have some mental issues.

However, there was one thing Tang Ruan found magical.

From the moment she knew he was Heng Zhou, she wasn't afraid of him at all.

Toward Fen Tian, she would occasionally still feel a trace of fear.

But, by his side—

She felt that he would never hurt her.

---

On the other side.

A burly Jiao Clan Male Beastman pushed open the door.

He saw Guo Guo swinging her short little legs, sitting on the bed with a well-behaved look.

And the beastman who was originally responsible for guarding her was lying on the table to the side, hugging a pillow, fast asleep with loud snores.

"Why is he still asleep?" the Jiao Clan Male Beastman who had just entered complained.

The sleeping Jiao Clan Male Beastman woke up abruptly.

Seeing his companion, he rubbed his eyes and said: "I don't know..."

He saw Guo Guo sitting on the bed and suddenly remembered.

"Oh! I was really sleepy earlier, and then this little Cub handed me a pillow.

I originally wanted to lie down for a while, but then..."

He looked at Guo Guo gently, "What a truly understanding little Cub."

"No matter how understanding she is, she is still a sinner. Don't be like that guy who delivered food and impulsively take her to escape," the beastman said, sitting down at the table as well.

Just as he was about to look for water to drink, a pair of small hands were already holding out a conch cup.

"Hey! She really is sensible!" A thought suddenly flashed through his mind to pat her head.

But due to his status, he didn't raise his hand.

Guo Guo suddenly grabbed his hand and placed it on her head.
