Chapter 512: Rescue Plan

In Sikong Ling's view, any reason or explanation was just an excuse and couldn't be treated as grounds for exoneration. Had Su Wenyue not been lucky this time, with the Phantom just happening to hold a grudge against those five men, and had just happened to receive information about them and went to the rescue, even if Su Wenyue had jumped from the cliff and miraculously survived, the outcome wouldn't have been much better.

Actually, Sikong Ling wasn't a person of spotless character. In the past, if he took a fancy to a woman, he had many ways to obtain her, willing or not. However, regarding Su Wenyue, for some unknown reason, Sikong Ling always felt an inexplicable sense of guilt. Therefore, even though he fancied her, he never wanted to force her, and even harbored thoughts of helping and protecting her—provided that Su Wenyue lived happily.
