Since Yan Ranran is already suffering from a terminal illness and doesn't want to burden Wang Qingge any further,
Then why did she still get engaged to Shen Fei? Is there some inside story that others don't know?
Unable to understand this, Li Yueyue asked her directly.
"Ranran, you actually don't want to burden Wang Qingge anymore because of your terminal illness."
"Then why did you get engaged to Shen Fei? Do you love him? But if you love him, you shouldn't have done this."
"Yueyue, I..." Yan Ranran became even more heartbroken when Li Yueyue suddenly asked her this question.
"Ranran, what exactly happened? Why did you get engaged to Shen Fei, and why did he tell everyone that you went abroad with him?"
Now that things had come to this, Yan Ranran no longer wanted to hide anything from Li Yueyue, so she spoke to her directly.
"Yueyue, actually, what happened between me and Shen Fei is fake."
"Ah!" Li Yueyue was somewhat surprised to hear this.
"Ranran, what do you mean? Are you saying that your engagement to Shen Fei is fake?"
“Yes!” Yan Ranran nodded and said, “Actually, Shen Fei knew that I had a terminal illness and was about to die.”
"No way! Then why did you two get engaged? Why did he get engaged to you?"
Yan Ranran's words made Li Yueyue increasingly puzzled.
Yan Ranran continued to explain, "Actually, all of this is just for one person."
"For one person?" Upon hearing her say this, Li Yueyue immediately thought of Wang Qingge.
"Ranran, are you saying that all of this is for Wang Qingge?"
"Yes!" Yan Ranran nodded, and continued, "As you know, Wang Qingge loves me very much."
"But given my current situation, I'm no longer qualified to be with him."
"But I can't tell him that I have a terminal illness, because if I do, he will be heartbroken and might not be able to accept it."
"So that's why I didn't keep the appointment that day after I learned I had a terminal illness."
"Afterwards, in order to keep him from knowing about my situation and to prevent him from being saddened by it."
All I could tell him was that I had fallen for someone else.
"In order to minimize Wang Qingge's pain, and so that he won't be too sad for me after I die."
"That was the only option I could take. I told him that I already had someone I liked."
"Because only by doing this will he think that I betrayed him, and then even if I really die."
“He wouldn’t be that heartbroken, and he might even commit suicide.”
"So the only way I could leave him was by betraying him and making him hate me."
"Only by doing that can he minimize his pain after I really die, otherwise, given his love for me."
"If he knew the truth, he would absolutely not be able to accept it."
After hearing Yan Ranran's words, Li Yueyue finally understood how ruthless Yan Ranran had been in her dealings with Wang Qingge.
Regardless of the circumstances, Yan Ranran did all this for Wang Qingge.
If it were her, Li Yueyue would definitely have chosen to do the same.
Even with Yan Ranran's explanation, she still couldn't understand that Yan Ranran was engaged to Shen Fei.
"Ranran, I can understand what you're saying, but what does that have to do with your fake engagement with Shen Fei?"
"Of course it's related," Yan Ranran said, tears welling up in her eyes again.
"Yueyue, you have no idea how deep Wang Qingge's love for me is."
Even though I told him that I already had someone I liked, he just refused to believe it.
"So I really had no other choice. If he were willing to believe me, I wouldn't have gone down the path of a fake engagement with Shen Fei."
No matter how I explained, Wang Qingge just wouldn't believe that I already had someone I liked.
"But if he doesn't believe any of this, then everything I've done will have been for nothing, you know?"
"So I can't let him be like that. I have to make him believe that I really do have someone I like."
At this point, Li Yueyue finally understood completely, and it was precisely because she understood that she finally understood.
Therefore, Li Yueyue felt even more heartbroken for Yan Ranran, and she asked in a choked voice.
"Ranran, so you deliberately faked your engagement with Shen Fei just to make Wang Qingge believe that you really already have someone you like, right?"
"Only by doing this will he believe you, and only by doing this will he feel less pain when you die, thinking that you betrayed him, right?"
"Waaah!" Yan Ranran covered her mouth and started crying.
Knowing the truth of everything, Li Yueyue was even more unable to accept it.
"Ranran, how could you do this? How could you treat him like this?"
Although she understood Yan Ranran's predicament, Li Yueyue also felt great sympathy for Wang Qingge for her deception.
Yan Ranran cried as she said, "Yueyue, I didn't want to do this either."
"But you know, if I don't do this, he'll never believe me, you understand?"
“If he had been willing to believe me from the beginning, why would I have lied to him and caused him so much pain?”
Li Yueyue knew very well that Yan Ranran's actions were causing her even more pain than Wang Qingge—a hundred times, a thousand times more.
Therefore, she had no right to criticize Yan Ranran.
Yan Ranran continued, "I can't care about anything else anymore, as long as he's alright."
"As long as he won't be too sad or upset about me after I die, it's all worth it."
"At most, what I'm doing is causing him pain right now. As time goes by, he'll definitely forget all about it."
"Once he forgets about me, he can find someone else and live happily ever after."
"But if I don't do this, and let him know everything, know the truth..."
"Even if he doesn't die for me after I die, he will definitely suffer and feel guilty for the rest of his life."
"So it was really out of necessity for me. If I had any other choice, I definitely wouldn't have taken this path."
"But now I really have no other choice. I just want him to live a good life."
"Ranran, why did God treat you like this? Why did He treat you all like this?"
Li Yueyue was at a loss for words, so she could only hug Yan Ranran tightly, and the two of them cried together.
