Abyss Dominator System-Chapter 33 - 30: Good and Evil Depend on the Heart
Chapter 33 - 30: Good and Evil Depend on the Heart
"Why did you suddenly change cars today?"
Bai Yan was steering the wheel when he suddenly asked in a faint voice.
"Ah?"
Immersed in her own blissful daydreams, An Xiaowan, who was caught off guard, then realized Bai Yan was speaking to her.
Her pretty face blushed slightly as she softly said, "This car was a gift from my sister; I've never driven it before. I just remembered it today."
"Why didn't you tell Fu Chao and the others just now that this car is yours?"
Bai Yan smiled and continued to ask.
"Does it matter whose car it is? If you like it, I can just give it to you."
An Xiaowan beamed deferentially, her gaze fixated on Bai Yan's profile, seemingly entranced by it.
"Sensible."
Bai Yan sincerely praised her.
This girl truly understood things. Even though they hadn't spent much time together, Bai Yan always felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
An Xiaowan, she gave him a sense of rare tacit understanding.
This was a feeling Jin Xuanxuan could never give him, the kind of telepathy between lovers where a single glance conveyed each other's thoughts!
Such an understanding—if not born from true love—could only be accumulated through the day-to-day, bit by bit interactions.
"Hehe."
An Xiaowan giggled sweetly, her shallow dimples blooming adorably; her eyes never left Bai Yan's face.
This man, whom she had watched for eighteen whole years, she could never get enough of him.
"What are you looking at? Is there a flower on my face?"
Bai Yan suddenly turned his head, meeting An Xiaowan's beautiful eyes.
"Ah, no, I wasn't looking at anything!"
An Xiaowan hastily shifted her gaze, though Bai Yan could still catch the quiver of trepidation in her lovely eyes.
Just like a child caught in wrongdoing.
So pitiful and charming.
Such an unblemished innocence!
Truly...
It's hard to maintain self-control!
Bai Yan took a deep breath, squinting slightly as he turned his head to look forward.
He didn't want An Xiaowan to realize that his pupils had turned completely pitch black.
The demonic side of Bai Yan had been successfully invoked by An Xiaowan.
Bai Yan could clearly hear a voice inside his soul roaring and howling, constantly tearing at his nerves!
...
"Do you... have something you want to talk about today?"
Bai Yan's voice was somewhat hoarse as he changed the topic, no longer looking at An Xiaowan.
He feared he wouldn't be able to restrain his demonic side.
She was a rather decent girl; there was no need to ruin her life, nor to drag her down into the Abyss with him.
Bai Yan was a man of great principles, who valued freedom highly.
He could be evil, but his wickedness remained under his own control!
When I wish to be kind, it brings benevolence to the world!
When I wish to be evil, it fills the heavens with bones!
Good and evil were but a single thought's breadth away for Bai Yan; no one could control him.
"I..."
An Xiaowan looked somewhat troubled, her brows furrowed and biting her lower lip playfully. What should she say?
Should she tell him that she feared her sister might forcefully take her away to Mo City after a while, so she wouldn't have the chance to see him again, hence her unbearable longing brought her here?
Or, should she tell him the truth, that night, we actually...
Oh my!
No, no, it's too embarrassing; she absolutely cannot let him find out!
An Xiaowan's pretty face alternated between flushed and poignantly sorrowful; the rapid changes in her expressions puzzled Bai Yan.
"Xiao Wan, are you feverish?"
Bai Yan asked with concern.
"Not at all."
An Xiaowan took a deep breath, her intelligence kicking in as she quickly thought of an excuse: "The reason I came to see you today is that I do have something in mind."
"What happened?"
"I know, you were kidnapped last night."
An Xiaowan sneaked a look at Bai Yan's profile, and cautiously spoke up.
Bai Yan's eyebrows slightly raised, and he fell silent.
"Don't misunderstand, Bai Yan!"
An Xiaowan panicked, her crisp and pleasant voice tinged with a trace of anxiety: "The person who kidnapped you wasn't me. I'm also looking for the culprit behind this!"
"I know who kidnapped me."
Bai Yan said indifferently: "Li Feiwen, right?"
"You know?"
An Xiaowan's pretty face froze, her small hands nervously clutching at her clothes, looking somewhat tense.
"Actually, this is all my fault. If it weren't for me, Li Feiwen probably wouldn't have troubled you."
"Li Feiwen came for me. Sister has already found out that someone attempted to kidnap me a while ago. Also, Li Feiwen is possibly the person behind that incident, but there's still no concrete evidence..."
An Xiaowan's voice carried a hint of apology, she believed that her own identity and background had brought trouble to Bai Yan.
"Wait, you were kidnapped before?!"
Bai Yan interrupted An Xiaowan with a serious expression.
"Ah? Yes... I almost got kidnapped, and five of the bodyguards protecting me died that day."
An Xiaowan's pretty face showed a touch of guilt and sorrow, she was a kind-hearted and good girl.
"Li Feiwen, you really deserve to die!"
Bai Yan's voice was cold, filled with an indescribable anger.
For some reason, when Bai Yan learned that Li Feiwen had taken Jin Xuanxuan away, his heart was very calm, and he even anticipated it to some extent.
But now that Bai Yan heard about Li Feiwen's previous attempt on An Xiaowan, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.
Was he angry?
Is it because he's worried about me?
An Xiaowan looked at Bai Yan with a bit of a silly expression. For some reason, at this moment, her heart felt warm and sweet.
He hasn't changed, even with memory loss, he still instinctively wants to protect me.
"What are your bodyguards doing, not even able to protect a person properly!"
Bai Yan remained silent for a moment before squeezing out such a sentence.
He didn't even know what got into him just now; after all, she was the precious pearl of An Group. What does she have to do with you, Bai Yan?
She was almost kidnapped, why are you getting anxious about it?
"Hehe, my sister said the same thing."
An Xiaowan smiled playfully, blinking her eyes.
Compared to Bai Yan's sullen expression, An Xiaowan's heart was filled with happiness.
Love is an unreasonable emotion that's beyond status, family, age, and everything else!
...
The atmosphere in the car became somewhat silent.
The girl's heart was filled with shy and sweet love, but she didn't know how to explain herself. Should she be reserved or forthcoming? How could she make this silly man understand her feelings? There was the engagement with his sister as well, which was a complication.
The girl was caught in a mix of happiness and worry.
Bai Yan, on the other hand, was brooding over something.
Why should I worry about her safety?
No, that's not right!
This emotion is really strange!
I've only met her a few times, after all. In the end, I'm just her private tutor. Is it really my concern if she's safe or not?
Yet, why do I have this uncontrollable urge to kill whenever I think that Li Feiwen might be secretly targeting her?
This was the first time Bai Yan found himself deeply confused. The loss of memory couldn't change the brand in his soul; some things are destined right from the start.
No words in the car.

The Maybach quickly arrived on St Kilda Avenue, stopping in front of An Xiaowan's villa.
"Do you... want to come in for a glass of water?"
An Xiaowan placed her hands behind her back, blinking playfully. She was a bit shy; this was the first time in her eighteen years that she awkwardly invited a man.
It's so late, come in for water?
Bai Yan was stunned.
Such an obvious hint.
At that moment, he understood.
