The first time Mo Xiaoqing saw Ji Muhan was in a coffee shop with a "superb atmosphere."
Those clear, bright eyes, tinged with a hint of allure, left a deep impression on her heart.
"It's already come to this, do you think... the two of you can still go back?"
Bai Yixue was so heartbroken he could hardly breathe, his voice was terribly hoarse, and his beautiful sapphire blue eyes were now filled with red veins.
"...As long as you let go, I promise we can go back. I can forgive and forget everything!"
His voice trembled slightly…
There's definitely enough time. As long as they're willing to try, nothing in this world can be too late!
Mu Liangliang closed her eyes and laughed, but at the same time, her tears flowed uncontrollably like a river bursting its banks…
Tears streamed down her face as she looked at him coldly. "No, you're wrong, Bai Yixue. You were the one who abandoned me from the very beginning!"
It's too late!
They could never go back; their fate had already been decided in his hands long ago…
"It was you who dragged me into this dark and unbearable world. It was you who took away everything that was beautiful in my life. I... I just did what I had to do!"
"Liangliang... I don't know, you know I don't want this!"
Bai Yixue looked as helpless as a child, his eyes filled with bloodshot veins, yet he stubbornly held back his tears.
His heart felt as if it had suddenly crashed to the ground, shattering into two pieces.
What should he do?
In that instant, his mind went completely blank, and he couldn't think of anything else!
He could no longer remember a single thought that had once clung to his mind!
He kept praying to God, saying that he would be willing to shorten his lifespan by 20 years if Liangliang could let go of her obsession!
He... only has her left!
As long as she's alive, even if she hates him...
"But it's already happened. You still hurt me in the end, and my parents still died because of you, didn't they? From the moment I learned the truth, there was absolutely no possibility between us in this lifetime!"
Bai Yixue's calm and composed expression changed slightly.
Where no one could see, his hands trembled, as if he knew perfectly well that the quicksand he held in his hand was about to slip away...
"Liangliang, let's stop making trouble, okay? As long as you come back, I promise to let her go, and we can go abroad and live the kind of life you want, okay? I promise you I'll never hurt her again, and I promise I'll never pursue those unreal things again!"
He doesn't want anything anymore!
He could give up the idea of revenge, or even the thought of staining someone as pure as Mo Xiaoqing with darkness…
He... just wants her by his side!
Even if... I hate him deeply!
"...It's too late. Who are you trying to fool with that expression on your face?"
Mu Liangliang laughed, a laugh mixed with tears, a laugh that was both poignant and desperate.
"...Bai Yixue, you've been scheming and calculating your whole life, and I'm starting to have trouble telling you which of your words are true and which are false."
"But... you should understand that the reason these people were able to arrive so quickly today is because I betrayed you. I told them everything you did, and I cut off your last escape route. Don't you hate me?"
"Are you sure you still want to take me abroad? Aren't you afraid I'll stab you in the back one day?"
Bai Yixue's eyelashes trembled slightly as he lowered his eyes. "...Success and failure are common occurrences in war. It's not your fault! Even without you, defeat would have been inevitable!"
His voice was extremely hoarse, several times worse than the hoarse, duck-like voice of a teenage boy going through puberty!
"Bai Yixue, you said you don't hate me, but I hate you. What I hate most is that I didn't see through all this sooner, and I was so foolish to stay by your side for so long!"
"Do you know? You were once my god, because you reached out your hand to me the moment I fell into the mud. Later, I became ruthless for power, to the point that I didn't even recognize myself. I stayed by your side for five whole years... signing that ridiculous agreement!"
"I don't know how to get revenge on you? I don't know how to make you sad?"
"But now I've thought of a great idea!"
Mo Xiaoqing's eyelids twitched violently. She had a feeling of unease in her heart. Sure enough, in front of everyone, Liangliang actually used his dagger to stab himself hard into his chest!
Large swaths of bright red blood were gushing out uncontrollably…
That moment brought tears to the eyes of many...
Bai Yixue was the first to be affected; in that instant, his heart felt as if it had been brutally crushed.
pain…
That was the only word left in his mind!
"Bai Yixue... are you in pain?"
