The Man In Rage novel Chapter 1993

Since his birth, Ye Fan had lived through the entire spectrum of worldly experiences.

In his youth, he had been abandoned and humiliated by his family.

For the first time during adulthood, he found some semblance of belonging by being the Qiu family's meek son-in-law.

By only thirty years old, Ye Fan had already endured almost all the suffering and malice the world had to offer.

Despite having witnessed the worst of humanity, Ye Fan had never let it diminish the love he had for the world. People like Eigetsu showed him that the world was still worth saving despite the menace that lay within.

The secular world did not fetter people like Eigetsu, nor were they swayed by power. In their infinite selflessness, they reminded Ye Fan of the capacity for human kindness by going out of their way to aid him during his greatest needs.

Despite Suzumiya Eigetsu's willingness to give everything up for Ye Fan, he would never allow it.

After a long silence, Ye Fan chuckled lightly and caressed her long hair.

“Hush now, silly girl. Aren't you a little too old to be crying like that?” he said affectionately to the beautiful woman in his arms with pity in his eyes. “You're not the little girl who watched the sunset with me anymore. Despite being the figurehead of a country, you still cry like the little girl I once knew.”

He could not bring himself to utter the words he knew must be said.

Therefore, Ye Fan purposefully avoided Suzumiya Eigetsu's earlier offer.

Anyone who remotely knew Ye Fan would see that he was a proud man.

Even if he were ruined without any hope of rising again, the pride in his heart would never allow him to hide abroad in a woman's shelter.

Suzumiya Eigetsu was not satisfied. “You haven't answered me yet, Master. Do you have me in your heart?” she persisted, turning her head to show him the sparkle of determination in her eyes. “Do you still consider me your own? I only have you to rely on in this world, Master. I won't allow you to cast me aside again.”

The despair in her voice made her sound like an abandoned child destined to trudge alone in the dark wasteland of the world, and Ye Fan was the only light that gave her warmth. She could not imagine what would become of her if the only light had left her.

What kind of loneliness would one lead for the rest of their life if there is no one left to live for? What, then, would be the meaning of life?

Suzumiya Eigetsu had been alone for twenty years until she met Ye Fan.

On the other hand, Moon God had only met Chu Tianfan after millennia of solitude.

Ye Fan would never have expected to be the source of yearning and sustenance for life for the woman in his arms.

Despite being moved by her gesture, he sighed again. “I really will hurt you, Eigetsu.”

“I'm not afraid!” Suzumiya Eigetsu shouted stubbornly.

Realizing that she was not about to be dissuaded, Ye Fan was forced to nod. “I promise to go to Japan to seek your aid if ever there is a day that I, Chu Tianfan, have become truly desperate.”

Like the lotus after a rain, Suzumiya Eigetsu's tearful face blossomed into a bright smile immediately upon obtaining his promise.

“I knew that you wouldn't abandon me, Master.”

The Sword God of Japan, Mochizuki Kawa, would be shocked by the scene if he was here as Suzumiya Eigetsu had not smiled since the defeat of Ye Fan and Chu Sect.
