A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) novel Chapter 889

Suzumiya Eigetsu looked so begrudging that she appeared like a jealous girlfriend.

Ye Fan couldn't help smiling sadly at Suzumiya Eigetsu.

"Am I such a fickle man to you?"

Ye Fan reached his hand out and knocked gently on Suzumiya Eigetsu's head.

Ye Fan and Suzumiya Eigetsu had become a lot closer in the past few days.

Moreover, Ye Fan was easy to get along with in the first place.

Ye Fan briefly halted before he continued, "I just admire her for being so kind."

Although they barely knew each other, Chiike Shizuka was willing to offend her elders and beg for leniency on his behalf.

Ye Fan was moved by how kind Chiike Shizuka was.

Ye Fan wanted to help Chiike Shizuka because he felt that good people deserved kindness.

From now on, no one could compare to Chiike Shizuka in status in the Miyamoto clan.

Suzumiya Eigetsu remained angry despite Ye Fan's explanation.

She pouted without saying a word and looked like she was sulking.

"Fine, my bad. Tell me what you want. If it's something within my power and isn't unethical, I will give it to you."

After all, Ye Fan was a married man, so he knew how a woman's mind worked.

Suzumiya Eigetsu was clearly sulking because Ye Fan had never given her a present.

Suzumiya Eigetsu instantly beamed brightly when she heard what Ye Fan said.

A beautiful smile bloomed on her stunning face and felt like the sun rising after the rain.

However, no one knew that this lovely smile was going to depart from the world very soon.

Despite the beauty that surrounded them, it was all fleeting.

Ye Fan couldn't help feeling sad about how cruel the gods were.

Why create such beauty only to take it away so hastily?

Ye Fan would probably no longer be able to see this mesmerizing smile in six months.

"You said it! You will give me anything I want," said Suzumiya Eigetsu happily.

"Uh huh. That's right." Ye Fan nodded.

"Then I..." Suzumiya Eigetsu touched her chin and thought about what gift she wanted.

After a long time, she couldn't come up with anything.

"Oh never mind, I will save it for now. I'll tell you when I come up with something, and you can give it to me then,” said Suzumiya Eigetsu gently.

"Sure thing," replied Ye Fan with a smile.

The sky had turned dark, and lamps had lit up both sides of the street.

Dim light scattered into the air and chased away the darkness.

"Master, the sun has set. Tomorrow, you will be going to Sword Shrine," said Suzumiya Eigetsu softly. She suddenly felt dejected. They stood under the greenlight and looked at the stars in the distance.

Her words sounded sad.

In reality, Suzumiya Eigetsu and Ye Fan were keenly aware their ties as master and slave would come to an end tomorrow regardless of their success.

Because of Suzumiya Eigetsu's unusual identity, neither Sword Shrine nor the Japanese martial arts circle would allow

Ye Fan to take her away.

Also, it never once crossed Ye Fan's mind for Suzumiya Eigetsu to remain his slave forever.

Initially, he had forced Suzumiya Eigetsu to be his slave in order to get back at Mochizuki Kawa.

Many of them were couples who came earnestly because they heard how beautiful the cherry blossoms were. However, they ended up leaving disappointedly.

The light in Suzumiya Eigetsu's eyes instantly went dimmed.

"Hmm? Aren't you little love birds leaving? The cherry blossoms haven't bloomed yet. Come back in half a month," said a middle-aged man who was exercising.

Suzumiya Eigetsu hung her head sadly.

She was keenly aware that if she didn't manage to see them tonight, she wouldn't ever be able to see cherry blossoms with Ye Fan again.

Ye Fan said she could still keep her consciousness for half a year or so.

However, Suzumiya Eigetsu knew her condition best.

The headaches had gotten increasingly worse in the past few nights.

The voice deep inside in her head was also becoming increasingly clear.

Sometimes, she even had difficulty controlling her body.

Suzumiya Eigetsu felt that she had less than half a month left.

She was hoping to see cherry blossoms with the man she loved before she died so that she could at least die contented despite how fleeting her life was.

She didn't expect her only wish to get dashed.

Tears suddenly trickled down her face.

That regret and sadness seemed to grip Suzumiya Eigetsu's heart tightly like the hand of a demon.

She could no longer conceal the sorrow in her heart.

She squatted on the ground and buried her face in her knees, and wept sadly.

Suzumiya Eigetsu looked so helpless that she seemed like an abandoned child.
