Transmigrating into a Big Villain in the Book

Chapter 216: Apologize

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Ke Ruan asked the prison guard to leave. From this direction, he could see Yu Xin in prison clothes. His back was straight up and his profile showed determination. It had been seven years and he indeed had grown up.

He did owe him an apology.

He opened the door and walked in. Hearing the footsteps, Yu Xin turned around and saw Ke Ruan. Ke Ruan could feel that he froze a little bit even in the dim light like this.

Yu Xin wanted to get up, but Ke Ruan waved his hand, “You can sit.”

There was nothing in the dungeon. Yu Xin had to sit on the ground. Ke Ruan sighed and then bent down to sit opposite him.

Yu Xin’s voice was indifferent and void, “Empress, this is the dungeon. You’re not supposed to come here.”

“I’m sorry.”

Ke Ruan came straight to the point as if he didn’t hear his sarcasm at all.

Yu Xin suddenly looked up at Ke Ruan’s eyes, which seemed to be sparkling like stars.

No wonder… Those eyes looked directly into his. No wonder…

Seeing that he didn’t respond, Ke Ruan repeated, “Yu Xin, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I was wrong in the past. And I’m wrong today.”

“Empress, you don’t need to…”

Ke Ruan sighed, “I know it’s useless to apologize since you got hurt because of what I have done. And today… You can punch me if you want.”

Yu Xin was stunned and then smiled. There was a hint of sarcasm in his low voice, ” I dare not.”

Of course Ke Ruan noticed the sarcasm in his words. Well, he didn’t expect to be forgiven with a simple apology.

‘The police would be no use if apologies work all the time’, as the saying goes.

“Leave here. It doesn’t matter if you are intentional or not. I just don’t want you to have anything to do with my sister.”

Yu Xin said, “You still think that I have bad intentions. You don’t need to say more.”

Ke Ruan didn’t know what to day. Yes. He still thought that it was not just coincidence that Yu Xin had saved his sister twice.

Seeing that Ke Ruan was speechless, Yu Xin stood up and then knelt down, “Thank you for your kindness of not killing me.”

Ke Ruan furrowed his eyebrows. “Get up, I’ll get someone to pick you up.”

“Yes!”

Ke Ruan saw no point in staying here any longer, so he turned around and asked the guard to let him go.

He didn’t expect to see his sister and her pale face the moment he got out of the dungeon.

Ke Ruan frowned and said, ” Nuonuo. What are you doing here? Don’t you know that your foot hasn’t fully recovered?”

Ke Nuo’s eyes were red as she watched Ke Ruan and cried again. “Brother, don’t kill him, please. I’m begging you.”

Ke Ruan walked over. “Okay. But I don’t want you to see him again, alright?”

Ke Nuo trembled. “Then you won’t kill him?”

Ke Ruan gazed at Ke Nuo. He was just saying because he knew that Ke Nuo wouldn’t listen to him. He didn’t expect Ke Nuo to think that way.

He thought for a moment and decided to go with the flow, “Yes. If you promise to never see him again, I will not kill him.”

Ke Nuo pursed her lips and looked at the door of the cell. Her round eyes seemed to have dimmed at that very moment. Ke Ruan’s heart ached for this but he didn’t dare to gamble at the risk of losing her sister.

“Brother, I got it. I promise. I won’t see him anymore,” Ke Nuo lowered her head.

Ke Ruan turned around and squatted down with his back facing his sister. “Come on, I will carry you back.”

Ke Nuo looked at the cell door again. She knew her brother wouldn’t lie to her, but still, her heart was broken into pieces.
