<h4>Chapter 513: Chapter 513 I don’t have the energy to give you another chance</h4>


    An Ruo couldn’t help but look at him, feeling that whatever was about to happen must have been terrifying for him.


    Her heart tightened slightly, for his sake back then...


    After a few seconds of silence, he went on coldly, "The rule was that if I lost, I would have to die. I didn’t want to die. I had promised my mother that I would live well.


    I nned to run away immediately, but I was too naive. I was no match for them at all.


    I was caught and beaten mercilessly, then my older brother had someone force-feed me poison. It was the kind of poison that wouldn’t kill you instantly but would slowly and painfully lead to death.


    After being poisoned, they dumped me in the outskirts. If it hadn’t been for Uncle Liang saving me by chance, I wouldn’t have survived until today."


    Though Liang Weiming saved his life, he couldn’t eliminate the residual poison in his body.


    His body had always contained toxins, and since that time, he had lost his ability to reproduce.


    But now he was cured, and there were no longer any toxins in his body.


    Tang Yuchen paused for a moment, then continued in a low and deep voice.


    "After Uncle Liang saved me, I also told him what happened to me. He immediately asked me if I was willing to join the military to be a special agent for the nation.


    He told me there were many benefits to bing a special agent. I would learn the best survival skills, and I could change my identity, making it impossible for anyone to find me, including my brother.


    To survive, I agreed to his suggestion. So, he arranged for me to enter the military, and that’s when I started the most brutal training of my life.


    A special agent is different from other soldiers; they can be considered the nation’s secret assassins, doing the most cold-blooded and cruel work.


    After three years of training, I was sessfully selected as a special agent before I even turned eighteen.


    As a special agent, I began secretly collecting evidence of my brother’s crimes. Finally, when I was twenty-three, I seeded in bringing him down, resulting in a life sentence for him.


    With him out of the picture, the Tang Family needed a new sessor. I didn’t want to continue living a life shrouded in darkness, so I asked to leave the organization and took over the Tang Family’s business..."


    He didn’t mention the sacrifices Lan Keren made to help him sessfully leave the organization or the bloody violence hemitted as a special agent.


    He didn’t speak of them, not wanting to frighten her, nor to make excuses for himself.


    Tang Yuchen looked at An Ruo, meeting her eyes, he said gravely,


    "An Ruo, I’m telling you all this to say, my past has shaped my cold-blooded nature.


    I know you can’t ept my cold-bloodedness and cruelty, and I know I shouldn’t have hurt you over and over again, I understand now that I was wrong.


    Since meeting you, I’ve changed a lot. My heart has gradually warmed, and your kindness has moved me...


    So, can you give me another chance to make amends, can you not take away myst ray of light?"


    In that instant, An Ruo’s heart felt as if it had been struck hard by something, leaving her speechless.


    She averted her gaze, refusing to look into his eyes.


    After hearing his past and his plea, it was impossible for her to remain unmoved.


    But...


    An Ruo stood up and turned her back to him, saying sorrowfully, "Tang Yuchen, it’s not that I don’t give you a chance, it’s that I no longer have the strength to give you one.


    I am human, not a savior, and I too have moments of despair.


    Being with you for so long, I’ve experienced too much pain. My heart has long been bleeding and broken to the point of numbness...


    I’m sorry, I can’t give you any more chances."
