Chapter 1008 I promise you
"One day, what day will it be? You know it's a long way off, right? What if, before the antidote is developed, you die in my hands first?"

Yun Ci hugged Dongtang Chiyou tightly, as if he was afraid that he would disappear before his eyes.

"I'm not afraid! Ah You, as long as I'm with you, I don't have to worry about life or death!"

"But I'm afraid." Dongtang Chiyou's voice trembled, as if he was in great fear: "I don't want to see you lying in a pool of blood, no longer breathing, no heartbeat, when I wake up from my madness one day in the future!"

Yun Ci said in a hoarse voice: "Is... death the only option?"

Dongtang Chiyou slowly pushed Yunci away. He looked at Yunci, stretched out his hand, wiped away the tears from her eyes with his fingertips, and said, "You can also lock me up here like now, but I can't accept being imprisoned like a dog again. Maybe one day when I go crazy, I will rush over.

I can also leave, far away from you, but where should I go? As long as there are people, I will go crazy and hurt them. Maybe I should hide in the deserted mountains and forests, and then struggle between sobriety and madness? "

Yun Ci fell silent.

She racked her brains and thought for a long time, but she couldn't seem to come up with a good way.

"Sometimes death is the best ending. I used to think Bei Qing was too stupid, but now I can finally understand his decision." Dongtang Chiyou suddenly picked up the knife on the ground, held it tightly in his palm, then stood up, stepped back a few steps, away from Yun Ci.

Yun Ci was startled and quickly got up from the ground, took a few steps towards Dongtang Chiyou, and looked at the man in panic.

"Ayou..." Dongtang Chiyou spoke calmly, "Do you remember that I was thrown into the Madman Mountain? There were a large number of puppets that failed experiments. Their bodies became deformed, they lost their minds, and could not control themselves. As soon as it got dark, they would want to come out and kill people. At that time, I felt that they were pitiful and pathetic.

If I could completely lose my mind, I wouldn’t know what I was doing and I wouldn’t feel any pain. But… I would still wake up and be afraid of when I would go crazy next time. I don’t want to be like that…”

Having said that, Dongtang Chiyou suddenly raised the knife in his hand, put the sharp blade on his neck, looked at Yun Ci opposite him, and said, "If you can't do it, I can do it myself."

“Don’t—” Yun Ci suddenly rushed towards Dongtang Chiyou, grabbed his hand, took away the knife on his neck, threw it to the ground, opened his arms to hug him, and said almost pleadingly: “Don’t do this, Ah You…”

The two of them fell to the ground hugging each other. Dongtang Chiyou slowly reached out his hand, hugged Yun Ci back, and buried his head in her neck, seeking warmth like a child.

Yun Ci finally couldn't hold back her tears and burst into tears, which flowed down one by one, soon soaking Dongtang Chiyou's shoulders.

She cried and nodded, trying to endure the pain of her heart being torn apart: "Okay... I promise you, I will give you whatever you want."

Even death.

In the evening, a ray of afterglow came in from the window, covering Dongtang Chiyou who was lying on the bed. He raised his eyes and looked at Yun Ci with a pair of quiet eyes.
