Chapter 315: Love or Not
Eniel realized something was wrong in an instant and quickly forced herself to stop her advance.
But because her speed had been too fast, even though she stopped immediately, the powerful inertia still drove the dagger further in. Blood flowed down the dagger, dripping onto the floor...
Eniel was shocked. In that moment, it felt as if her heart had stopped...
She quickly let go of the dagger and moved behind Su Chen, holding his staggering body.
"Are you stupid? Why didn't you dodge?"
Tears instantly began flowing from Eniel's eyes like a burst dam.
Su Chen smiled faintly in Eniel's arms and then reached out to caress her exquisitely delicate face, murmuring,
"Do you really want to kill me that badly?"
"Yes, I wish I could stab you to death, you heartless and ungrateful thing!"
Eniel spat out the words with hatred.
Indeed, when Eniel learned that he was already married, she almost went mad.
She had thought that she would definitely be the one to accompany him for life, but unexpectedly...

Especially after she had gone to great lengths to come here, only to find that this guy actually wanted to avoid her, it fueled Eniel's fury to a blaze!
So, as soon as she entered the room, she struck without mercy!
She wanted to let him know that she was angry, extremely angry!
But when the tip of the dagger truly pierced into his heart, she felt as though she had become dumbstruck, her heart clenched in agony!
As for the anger and resentment, it all disappeared...
She couldn't imagine what she would do if she had actually killed him; probably she wouldn't be able to live in this world anymore...
"If you want me dead so badly, why are you crying? You should be laughing!"
Su Chen looked at Eniel and said.
"I'll laugh when you're truly dead."
Eniel retorted with irritation:
"Stop talking. I'll check your wounds and see if you're going to die!"
After speaking, Eniel helped Su Chen sit on a nearby sofa and then swiftly tore off his shirt, revealing his scar-covered upper body.
This action was so familiar and natural for her, as if she'd done it countless times before—which was indeed the case!
"You've added new injuries?"
Eniel glanced and said, then carefully examined the area around the dagger and its depth of penetration. Fortunately, it hadn't hit any vital points!
"Yeah, it's inevitable!"
Su Chen wouldn't pretend to be more injured than he was in front of Eniel because he couldn't fake it and Eniel was skilled in surgery as well.
After all, traversing the Dark World, they'd suffered many injuries. It was as common as eating, hence the saying 'a trained physician comes from a patient's experience.'
Shortly after, Eniel had the hotel staff bring things like alcohol, swabs, and anti-inflammatory medicine. Naturally, a six-star hotel provided six-star service; in about five minutes, the staff arrived with a small medical kit that had even more supplies than Eniel had requested.
Such minor injuries were a piece of cake for Eniel, and she treated them quickly.
Then, the two of them sat side by side on the sofa in silence, neither starting the conversation.
"Eniel, I'm sorry."
After a while, it was Su Chen who finally spoke first. His tone was filled with sincere regret.
"Sorry, huh? What an easy word to say."
Eniel scoffed. After the events that had transpired, most of the resentment in her heart had dissipated, but some of it lingered.
In the face of Eniel's cold laughter, Su Chen just lowered his head in silence. Otherwise, what could he say?
"When did you get married?" Eniel asked.
"About half a year ago," Su Chen honestly replied.
"Half a year?! Haha, you actually kept it from me for half a year!"
Eniel glanced at him:
"You've become quite capable now, haven't you!"
The truth is, in the whole Nether Temple, only Eniel dared to talk to him like this, and she was the only one who never addressed him as Hall Master, except on special occasions.
After all, what else could be expected from their super friendship?
In Eniel's eyes, Su Chen wasn't just the Hall Master of the Nether Temple but also her man!
"I only have one question for you now."
Eniel looked at Su Chen and said:
"Do you still love me now?"
Upon hearing this question from Eniel, Su Chen sighed deeply:
"How could I possibly not love you?"
Indeed, after everything they'd been through together, how could those deep feelings just be forgotten?
Some things had even become etched into his marrow, coursing through his blood, becoming part of his life...
But in the end, he was already married!
When Eniel heard Su Chen's words, a heavy weight finally lifted from her heart.
As long as he still loved her, that was enough!
If Su Chen's answer had been "no," she feared she wouldn't even have had the courage to keep living.
Eniel didn't care about the formality of marriage; the reason she went crazy when she first heard Su Chen was married was solely because she had always thought that was her place!
And to have another woman suddenly take that spot, of course, she was furious and unwilling to accept it!
As soon as Su Chen finished speaking, Eniel directly flipped over to straddle him and fiercely kissed him, holding his head in her hands!
Su Chen responded in kind, the two were all too familiar with each other's bodies, even more so than with their own!
The kiss lasted for a very long time, until they were both panting and gasping, nearly suffocated and yet not stopping!
Just as Eniel was about to take things further, Su Chen grabbed her hands, smirked, and said:
"With the way I am now, do you think it's possible?"
Realizing this, Eniel also got a bit disheartened and got off Su Chen, sitting back down beside him!
Even though Su Chen's injuries weren't too severe, an injury at the heart was still delicate, and any too vigorous movement would certainly aggravate the wound, potentially leading to severe consequences.
After a while, Eniel asked seriously:
"Su Chen, who is prettier, me or Lin Ruoxue?"
"Didn't you say you only had one question?"
Upon hearing this, Su Chen was speechless; he couldn't believe that a woman like Eniel would ask such a question.
Only a fool would answer such a question because there's no way to answer it without displeasing someone.
"No, you must answer!"
Eniel was also getting petulant, and Su Chen had no way to handle her.
Su Chen's answer was naturally the same as any man's, which was—both are pretty!
But Eniel was like all women, very unsatisfied with Su Chen's evasive answer!
