Mission: Failed

I will not give you another chance to Deceive him

Minho's heart was heavy as he thought of this. His regret was like a huge rock weighing on his heart, making it difficult for him to breathe.

He turned to look at Felix tied to the chair and walked over silently. With one fell swoop, the hard clasp clanged, and the specially made metal had broken into pieces in his hand. Minho lowered his head and stared for a moment. He confirmed that Felix was just temporarily weak due to being drugged and hadn't actually suffered any injuries.

This life, the youth was still the same. He clearly had the advantage, but in the end, he wasn't cruel enough to harm others, only using his words to get the better of them.

Seeing this scene again with his own eyes, Minho was finally convinced of his theory completely.

If Jisung really had the heart to hurt people, why would he drag someone through the mud only to go soft in the end?

Minho turned back and stared at the young man's pale face. He felt helpless inside, as feelings of pain were intermixed with pity and regret.

Minho pursed his lips tightly, and emotion surged in his pupils.

When he was reborn in this life, he vowed to never misunderstand the youth again, to never hurt him and to protect him well. He really wanted to see the youth again, but last time they met, he had no good reason to stop him from leaving, and no appropriate excuse to go see him either.

He could only carefully trace through each of his memories to recall the youth's appearance. That's why he never expected that they'd be reunited under these circumstances.

Thinking back on how he'd failed Jisung last life, and his impulsive behaviour just now, a look of remorse flitted over Minho's eyes. His hand that hung uselessly by his side clenched into a fist, and he felt like there was something stuck in his throat.

For a moment, he had no idea what to say.

Jisung looked at Minho's gloomy face, then at his clenched fist, recalling the scene where he had just crushed the metal like it was tofu. He swallowed his saliva, heart panic-ridden. He still got nightmares about his last life when he was beaten into vomiting blood by Minho's punch, and Minho wasn't even trying very hard. Jisung cried inside and almost wanted to kneel for mercy. However, he couldn't do that for the sake of the plot.

He took a brave step forward in the end.

Even though this was only a small step forward, it was a big leap towards being reborn back home.

'What I did this time was much worse than last time. I even took out something as crazy as a gene breaker to play with. Minho must be even angrier and raging even harder, but for your feelings of love, I risk it all!'

Jisung lifted his eyes and looked straight at Minho without avoiding or dodging. With a provocative look, he said through gritted teeth, "What do you want?!"

Minho looked at him for a long time and raised his foot.

Jisung's heart thumped rapidly, and he thought that he was finally getting beaten! But at that moment, Changbin, who had been shivering like a quail on the side, suddenly sprang forward and desperately clung to Minho's raised leg. Trembling, he implored, "Marshal, your greatness, please don't blame Young master Han this was all my idea."

Jisung really was a little touched. He looked at the shivering Changbin. This dog was so scared that he was about to pee himself, but surprisingly, he was still willing to plead mercy for him! This was many times more touching than what Second-in-command Choi did last time.

'But why do people keep jumping out every time I'm looking for trouble? I don't need to meet a good end!'

They say a person should take responsibility for his own actions, after all. Although Changbin was the one who took out the gene breaker, he himself had directed the kidnapping of Felix. Although Changbin wasn't a good sort of person, that was no reason to let him take this knife for him.
