Chapter 1012: Save Victoria Again!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Every family had its own specialty.
Although the Rong family was the strongest overall, they might not have invested as much in certain fields. For example, they didn’t research youth-enhancing drugs like the Park family.
China already had a large population and they had the one-child policy, so the Rong family didn’t bother researching fertility.
Jordan looked at Rong Huangde awkwardly. Rong Huangde also looked rather embarrassed.
These two had a major grudge between them and deep hatred for each other, but Shaun brought up such a sensitive topic.
But Jordan was surprised by Rong Huangde’s answer.
Rong Huangde said to Jordan, “Yes, I do need it…”
Jordan was astounded.
This man was nearly 100 years old but still had to father another child to continue his line. It must be very hard on him!
Shaun laughed. “Haha, alright, no problem. Leave it to us. When you recover, you can give birth to a few more sons! I’ll personally choose the most beautiful woman in the world for you!”
“Um, Mr. Rong, I know you need time to yourself during this period of grief. We’ll remain in China. When you’re in a better mood, come visit us and we’ll plan something big together. How about that?”
Rong Huangde nodded.
…
Half a month later.
Jordan and Shaun were playing chess in a mansion in Beijing when Rong Huangde suddenly visited.
“Ah, Daddy is here! Please come in!”
Shaun was very happy to see that Rong Huangde was finally willing to visit Jordan. Half a month had passed and the pain and hatred in his heart should have decreased a lot.
Time could always soothe wounds and make people forget their hatred.
“Mr. Rong.”
Jordan put down the chess piece in his hand and stood up politely.
Rong Huangde looked a little old and thinner than before, and his complexion was pallid.
Rong Huangde looked at Shaun and said, “You killed my son.”
He then turned to Jordan. “You killed my grandson.”
“But I can’t do anything for them.”
Rong Huangde did look like a pitiful old man.
As the master of the world, he was indeed quite pitiful. His son and grandson were killed by the two people in front of him, but he did not do anything.
Actually, he could have avenged them.
Jordan said, “Mr. Rong, I understand your feelings very well. If you want to avenge your grandson and start a war with me, I won’t have any complaints if I die in your hands in the end. I don’t regret killing Rong Bingshao. I already thought of the consequences before I did it.”
ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ ꜰʀᴇᴇᴡᴇʙɴ(ᴏ)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄoᴍ ᴏɴʟʏ.
Jordan’s words were neither servile nor overbearing. He was firm and persistent.
Everyone had the right to avenge their loved ones, as did Rong Huangde.
Rong Huangde sighed. “Sigh, when will the cycles of vengeance end? I don’t want to live in such hatred anymore. I have only one request now. I hope that you can find out the secrets of the Handley family and the Deity. Thereafter, you can immediately kill me and send me on my way! I only need to know these things, then I can die without regrets.”
Rong Huangde actually invited Jordan to kill him as well.
Jordan did not know if Rong Huangde was sincere or not. He had never understood his true motives. However, Jordan felt embarrassed by his words. It was as if he was bullying Rong Huangde.
However, the truth was that Rong Huangde was very cunning and his technology very powerful. Jordan might not be able to kill him.
Shaun said, “Dad, why say such things? Don’t be so sad. Although you don’t have a son or grandson, you can treat me as your son and Jordan as your grandson!”
Jordan glared at Shaun.
Shaun realized his faux pas and quickly explained. “I’m not trying to take advantage of the situation. My intentions are pure!”
Rong Huangde said, “Forget it, forget it. I’m just an ordinary old man. How can I be the grandfather of a Deity? Deity Jordan, I know you’ve been thinking about Victoria. You want to go back and wake her up using my Time Gate. You’ve already blown up the previous Time Gate. Only the one in Chongming Island is left. I’ll take you there now.”
Jordan was extremely excited to hear Rong Huangde say this!
During this period of time, Jordan had been thinking about going back in time to save Victoria again! However, he found it too awkward to request this of Rong Huangde after all just killing his grandson.
Sometimes, Jordan even felt that he would prefer Rong Huangde to start a war with him. This way, if Jordan defeated the old man, he would be able to take control of everything owned by the Rong family.
Including the other Time Gate.
Jordan said gratefully, “Thank you! After I save Victoria, I will definitely help you find out the Handley family’s secret!”
Jordan was a man of his word. He didn’t care if Rong Huangde was faking it or not. He only knew that he really needed the Rong family’s Time Gate now.
Rong Huangde flew Jordan and Shaun to the Rong family’s base on Chongming Island.
Chongming Island had beautiful scenery, with beautiful national parks. Jordan had come here for the holidays before.
However, they didn’t have time to go sightseeing now.
The base on Chongming Island did not look like an important base. There was even the occasional tourist strolling past a few kilometers away.
However, this place held the most important invention of the Rong family.
Rong Huangde led the two of them in. Jordan was extremely excited to see the familiar Time Gate again.
Rong Huangde said, “Deity Jordan, choose a date which you wish to return to.”
Jordan had already thought about it. Previously, he wanted to prevent Victoria from being tainted, but he couldn’t change what had already happened.
Since it was already a known fact that Rong Bingshao had tainted Victoria, Jordan could not change it.
Therefore, Jordan intended to follow his original plan. He wanted to implant a thought into Victoria’s mind so that she would have a firm belief in her heart. The belief that she had to spend her life with Jordan. No matter what happened, she could not give up on herself.
Jordan chose the first of April last year.
“1 April, April Fool’s Day? Didn’t you hold your wedding with Lauren on this day? Why did you choose this day to save Victoria?”
Rong Huangde couldn’t help being curious.
Jordan was surprised that Rong Huangde, a 90-year-old man, could remember the date of his wedding with Lauren so clearly.
Before coming, he had said that his only wish was to know those secrets and then wait for death.
Wasn’t his memory just a little too good for someone who was just waiting for death?
