Chapter 581: Chapter 581: The unfortunate ones are everything he set his eyes on_1
The young master promptly got a leash to put around the eagle and then placed it in the backyard to feed.
In order to build a relationship with the eagle, he continued to talk to it and feed it every day. However, the eagle refused to eat or drink, always longing to fly away.
One ti, it even pecked the young master’s hand. The naive young master couldn’t understand why.
He was clearly so kind to it, so why was it always trying to leave, and even hurt him?
The young master spent a day alone in sadness, and finally ca out of his room to go to the backyard.
I was nearby at the ti. I heard him say to the eagle, “I know you want to leave. I can’t keep you no matter what.
Letting you go is sothing I really can’t bear. I’ve treated you as a good companion. I thought we could beco companions.
But you’re always unwilling to stay. Then I’ll let you go, because I don’t want to see you die.
But could you stay with for one more day, the last day? Tomorrow I’ll let you go. Is that okay?”
At this point, Aunt Li paused for a mont before continuing, “The young master had prepared himself to let it go. But the next morning, the eagle had died …
The young master couldn’t accept this reality and cried for a long ti.
That was the first ti I saw the young master cry. He was genuinely saddened.
Miss Jian, if only the eagle could have lived for one more day, it would have gained freedom, but unfortunately, it didn’t wait until then.
It thought that it could never attain freedom and fell into despair prematurely. But often things are just like that; victory is only that tiny bit away.”
“Miss Jian, do you think that if the eagle had waited one more day, the outco would have been different? Or maybe if it had eaten every day and not exhausted its life, it wouldn’t have died, and it wouldn’t have just missed out on freedom. Do you think that’s right?” Aunt Li asked her.
After listening to Aunt Li’s story, Jian Yufei felt nothing.
She just felt that Ruan Tianling was domineering, selfish, and conceited!
“Aunt Li, what are you trying to say? Are you trying to tell that if I don’t fall into despair, if I don’t waste my life, the day will co when Ruan Tianling graciously sets free?”
“Yes, the young master won’t always treat you like this. I can tell, he just doesn’t want you to leave, just like how he treated the eagle. No, he treats you differently. As long as you’re willing to stay and not leave, the young master won’t continue to be like this.”
Jian Yufei laughed dismissively, her laughter full of derision.
“Aunt Li, do you think, if the eagle had eaten regularly every day, had not shown such a firm and resolute attitude in expressing its pursuit, and had only struggled a bit from ti to ti, would Ruan Tianling have been rciful enough to let it go?”
Aunt Li was taken aback, not knowing how to answer.
“He wouldn’t! He is absolutely selfish. If given a shred of hope, he would never let go with his hands even in death.
If he wasn’t hopeless, how could he let go? Aunt Li, you still defend him, thinking he’s pitiful, right?
No, he isn’t pitiful. The ones that are pitiful are everything that he takes a liking to. Including that eagle, and …”
“Miss Jian, is it so hard to stay by the young master’s side?”
“Yes, it is! Look at how he treats . Even when I try to keep my distance, he won’t leave alone. What did I do wrong? What do I owe him? Why must he force and hurt like this?!”
