Chapter 1504. Do You Hate Me? 6
His husky tone was very calm. Not even a hint of tension could be sensed. He did not seem to have heard the police sirens, let alone know that the police were coming for him. It just seemed that he had never those committed crimes at all.Qi Lei had to admire Qi Feng’s calmness at the moment. He walked in slowly without saying anything.
Qi Feng was standing at the desk. He did not sit down for some reason. After realizing that Qi Lei had come in, he threw the towel in his hand onto the table next to him, raised his gaze, and glanced at him in silence.
“Your ability to speculate has never diminished, has it?” Qi Lei’s glance dimmed. There was no visible expression on his attractive face. He looked at him indifferently. “I don’t understand. The Qi family treated you well. Although my mother didn’t necessarily like you, she was never harsh on you, so why did you lay your hands on her? Because of you, the Qi family ended up as it is today.”
“Xiao Lei, to me, you’re just too naïve. If everyone were to ask themselves the question that you’ve just thrown at me, and if they could all look for the answers to their doubts in their hearts, do you think there’d be evil people in this world?” Qi Feng said calmly, and silently placed all the books that he tidied up back on the shelf behind him. “I’m a wicked person, and also a sinner. I don’t think it’s necessary for me to answer that question of yours.”
“I know you’ve always been resentful that fate hasn’t been fair to you, but nobody has treated you badly all these years. Still, you’re not satisfied. I told you a long time ago that I don’t care about the Qi Kai Group or the Qi family. If you wanted something, I just gave up on it. I’ve never wanted to contend with you, but you’ve forced me to step by step up until today.”
Qi Lei pressed his palms on the desk in front of him as he spoke. He then leaned slightly forward and gazed at him. “I only want to live a simple and serene life. Why is that so difficult?”
“From the second you were born, you were destined not to have a simple and serene life. Don’t forget that you had a very competitive mother. Even if you’re not in it for the Qi family, you still need to always think about your mother, don’t you? Why do you think she married the old man?” With a scoff, Qi Feng turned back and stood under the bookshelf before glancing at Qi Lei, whose expression suddenly dimmed.
“Actually, it’s very clear in your heart that although you don’t want to, there are things and responsibilities that you can’t leave behind. Do you really think you can truly be free and easy? Unless there’s nothing you care about in the whole world and you’ve become a saint. However, such a saint has no emotions, so can you even be such a person?” His tone was calm as usual, and there was also a trace of irony in his gloomy eyes. It was not clear whether it was directed at Qi Lei or at himself.
“That’s just what you think.”
