He couldn't help the flutter in his chest as his face was touched so gingerly, his hands were so warm and strong. That intense look always felt like his soul was bare.
Though upon hearing his words, really listening to him, and knowing his future, he could barely keep the tears from escaping, running down his face. It used to be easier to keep his mask in place, but there were so many things he's faced that made keeping the facade up so hard.
Jin Guangyao looked up at his eyes watery, brows knotted together. "Da-ge, if everyone else in the cultivation world were like you there would be no wars." but even righteous Mingjue had his blindspots, the tendency to black and white thinking he had prescribed to in his later years, he used to be so afraid of him.
But like this, when he was young and so passionate, it was no wonder that he had led the war and so many followed him. You are an irredeemable son of a whore. he had said to him back then, before kicking him down. Guangyao was caught in a snare back then, between his father's wrath and Mingjue's.
It was when he had made the choice to kill him.
It was the wrong choice and he was here now. He was going to do better. He was going to be the kind of person that would be worth Da-ge's regard.
He wanted to touch him, it was greedy but he was inherently a greedy person. But somehow he felt safe now. As his hands fell away, Guangyao wrapped his arms in for a hug around Mingjue's broad torso. I'm so sorry Da-ge.
Nie Mingue was here. He was real. They can make it better.
