Chapter 48

Bruce held Jasmine's hand tightly, but carefully restrained the force so as not to hurt Jasmine. He looked directly at Jasmine and placed his true self naked in front of her, fearful and uneasy, hoping to get her.

response.

Jasmine pursed her lips as she was being watched. She couldn't pull her hand away, so she simply turned away and said nothing, because from the bottom of her heart she didn't want to forgive Bruce easily. The reason why Jasmine suffered from depression was when she was dealing with her parents' funeral.

Watching her every move, the pressure on her was too much. As her boyfriend, Bruce failed to stay with her to give her support and courage during her most difficult time. So she chose to break up with Bruce.

I was also heartbroken by Gotham, and finally chose to stay in New York.

The two stood at the door of Jasmine's room. Occasionally, people who also stayed in the hotel looked at them with strange eyes. Bruce got no response, let go of Jasmine's hand, and then invited her: "Can you accompany me?"

Take a walk?”

Jasmine was hesitant. It was already the morning of the next day. If she walked with Bruce, she would have less sleep time. Coupled with Bruce's emotional performance just now, Jasmine was a little scared and did not dare to agree easily. But seeing Bruce

With the fragile expression on her face, Jasmine couldn't bear to say no.

As Jasmine remained silent longer, the light in Bruce's eyes gradually extinguished. Although Bruce's body did not move, Jasmine felt that his whole body softened, with an inexplicable aura of decadence. In the end, it was Bruce who compromised first and spoke: "It's already been very long."

Night……"

"I'll accompany you." Jasmine locked the door, took two steps forward, looked back at the stunned Bruce with raised eyebrows, waiting for him to catch up.

The two of them were walking side by side in the corridor of the hotel. When Jasmine couldn't see him, Bruce dared to turn his head and show a smile of success. He had discovered long ago that Jasmine was soft-hearted and not hard-hearted. As long as she showed her weakness a little, Jasmine would usually

They will raise the white flag and surrender.

They stood on the roof of the hotel and looked at the scenery, watching the white fish belly gradually appear on the horizon. The morning wind was very cold. Jasmine was wearing Bruce's coat and focused on the person standing next to her. She felt that Bruce was looking into the distance in front of her.

Familiar yet strange.

"Are you engaged?" Bruce turned to look at Jasmine. The ends of his hair were blown, and the broken hair was floating on his cheeks. His face was half bright and half gray, and behind him was the sun that was about to get angry.

The picture is as beautiful as a poster.

Jasmine tightened her clothes and lowered her head to avoid Bruce's gaze: "Yes."

The two of them returned to a state of silence. Bruce had thousands of words in his mind. He asked the question just now with a prayer that he didn't believe. He even thought that it was not true. He and Jasmine proposed to get back together, but everything

His words were locked in his heart. Jasmine was not aware of Bruce's thoughts at all. She just felt that the current atmosphere was a little unbearable, so she thought about the topic in her mind to lighten the atmosphere.

"I'm so sorry that I couldn't be by your side when you left Gotham." Bruce moved his fingers, but he couldn't hold back after all, and reached out to tuck Jasmine's hair behind her ears.

After noticing that Bruce put his hand next to her ear and stopped moving, Jasmine pursed her lips and turned her head to avoid it without hesitation.

Bruce, who was good at rhetoric, realized his lack of language at this moment, and the guilt in his heart could only be relieved for a moment by repeatedly saying sorry to Jasmine. The more he spoke, the more uncomfortable he felt, until his eyes turned red in the end.

"Bruce." Jasmine was helpless by Bruce's actions. After seeing his expression, the indignation and disgust that came up slightly subsided. She looked at the handsome man in front of her and sighed, "You don't need to apologize. We

Neither of us owes each other anything, so that's good."

Jasmine raised her head and looked at Bruce. At this time, Bruce did not dare to look at her. He looked away awkwardly and looked at the rising sun. Jasmine stretched out her hand and pulled Bruce's sleeve and changed the topic: "You

When do you start becoming Batman, before I'm gone or after?"

"Two months before you left Gotham, I didn't make an impulsive decision. I had been preparing for this." Bruce pushed Jasmine's hand back into the suit and looked at her neck intently.

The collar was smooth, and his own hands tightened the coat for her. "It's just that a lot of unexpected things happened later, resulting in today's situation."

Just like the feeling Bucky once gave Jasmine, she felt that Bruce's words were the same as Bucky's words. There were deeper feelings and more twisted meanings hidden in their words. Thinking of the darkness of Gotham and what Batman had done,

Jasmine felt that Bruce might have made a very bad decision, but she had no position to persuade Bruce. Jasmine's eyes were also red, and she looked at Bruce who was close at hand with a hoarse voice: "You won't regret doing this? You

You know, in the eyes of many people, Gotham is like the Great Triangle, which is hopeless and cannot be saved."

"Regret?" After hearing this word, Bruce felt it was ridiculous. He said categorically, "I don't regret becoming Batman, I just..." I regret losing you because of it.

Jasmine pretended not to understand what Bruce had not finished saying, but her hands holding the coat honestly squeezed it tightly, rumpling the flat suit.

"Look." Bruce took a step back, stretched out his hand and gently turned Jasmine's head, wanting her to see the rising sun in Gotham and the magnificent scenery below that could cover up all the darkness, "This is my city, and it is the city I am willing to work for.

The place where he gave his life.”

There was a smile on Bruce's lips, and when he saw Jasmine's eyes sparkling with color, he paused and continued, "So, I never regret it."

"Gotham is very lucky." Jasmine looked at the streets below that were dyed golden. The fatigue from a night's sleep was swept away. The original sentimental mood dissipated with Bruce's laughter, and she couldn't help but laugh along.

"There are people like you to protect me silently."

Jasmine heard the beep on her phone and lowered her head to unlock the screen. After seeing Tony's text message, her smile widened and her eyes curved beautifully.

"Wait for me." -Tony

The picture shows a flight ticket from New York to Gotham.

"He must be better to you than me." Bruce saw Jasmine's expression and guessed it was a message from Tony. As the atmosphere eased, he was able to gradually let go and joked, "Tony Stark

Are you so eager to come to Gotham?"

"He won't arrive until tomorrow." Jasmine put away her phone and was in a good mood, "I miss him too."

Bruce felt the water mist on the sleeves of his suit from behind and patted Jasmine's arm: "Go back."

After Jasmine returned to the hotel, she kept thinking about Tony who was on the plane at the moment. She would occasionally think of Bruce's words "I'm sorry" and the look on his face when he said he didn't regret it. Of course, she had insomnia again. Although she had a headache.

It almost exploded, but Jasmine was still not sleepy.

Later, Jasmine fell asleep vaguely. When she opened her eyes, she found that she was tied to a chair and realized that she was in a dream! Standing in front of her was Wade, who had been missing all night. At this time, Wade was wearing

Wearing short shorts and topless, when Jasmine looked over, she was still leaning on the steel pipe, posing in a seductive pose.

Even in a dream, Jasmine was dumbfounded. She tried to move her legs and feet, but she could only drag the chair together.

Wade, who was usually chatty, said nothing in her dream. The muscles that were usually hidden under his clothes were exposed to Jasmine's eyes without any hesitation. The lines were smooth and eye-catching. Jasmine clearly heard that she was worthless and swallowed her saliva.

She tried harder to break away from the rope, and her wrists were rubbed red.

Wade seemed to also hear the sound of Jasmine swallowing. He chuckled lightly. The moment the music started playing, a cold and arrogant expression appeared on his face that would never appear on Wade's face. Jasmine couldn't help but look away.

When Wade started pole dancing to the music, the rope came untied!

Jasmine stood up rudely and kicked the chair away. She didn't know when she had a handle/gun in her hand. Without thinking much, she raised it and shot at Wade. When Jasmine saw that the bullet was about to hit Wade,

Suddenly her vision became blurry.

Then, Jasmine woke up...

The moment Jasmine woke up, she was still confused between reality and dream, until she gradually came back to reality holding the cold hand/gun under the pillow. Thinking of the content of the dream, she hid under the quilt and shivered, not daring to move.

The second thing Jasmine realized was that it was dark when she woke up. She stood up helplessly. When she was brushing her teeth, she saw two thick dark circles on her face in the mirror. She sighed deeply and hoped sincerely.

It would go away tomorrow, but she didn't want Tony to see her looking so ugly.

When Jasmine walked out of the room, the strange feeling that had appeared at the engagement ceremony emerged again. This time she resisted the uncomfortable feeling and reluctantly opened her eyes to see the vast sea of ​​​​stars. It was like an hallucination. Jasmine blinked and found that she was holding the door.

The handle stood frozen at the door of the room. She subconsciously retracted her hand, regained consciousness, locked the door and walked out.

"Jasmine." Ah Fu stopped the distracted Jasmine with a smile and waved to her. After Jasmine sat down, she found that there were desserts and black tea on the table in front of Ah Fu. She didn't feel hungry until she smelled the sweet smell.

.

Ah Fu pushed the dessert towards Jasmine: "This is specially prepared for you."

"Thank you." Jasmine sheepishly thanked her and ate a biscuit, "Bruce isn't here?"

Ah Fu shook his head: "The man who came with you is also not here."

When Wade was mentioned, Jasmine's eyes showed the seductive figure of Wade in her dream, and the biscuit in her hand was crushed hard by her.
