Gu Yufei asked Duan Yu softly: "If one day I am no longer in this world, will you fall in love with someone else?"
Duan Yu frowned slightly, not understanding what he meant.
A glimmer of hope flashed in Gu Yufei's eyes, and she opened her red lips slightly: "If I am gone, I hope you can fall in love with someone else and continue living without constraints." After saying that, a trace of reluctance and expectation flashed in her eyes.
Duan Yu was overwhelmed with emotions after hearing this. He looked deeply at Gu Yufei. Suddenly, he gently moved closer and silenced her with a gentle yet powerful kiss. At this moment, it was as if time had stopped, leaving only the sound of their breathing and heartbeats.
After a long time, Duan Yu slowly left Gu Yufei's lips and whispered, "In my heart, no one can ever replace you. I won't let you leave. If you dare to leave, I will bury the whole world with you."
"Ha." Gu Yufei was amused by Duan Yu's words.
It seems that the male protagonist of every novel says this line.
"I don't want the whole world to be buried with me. I just want you to be well." Gu Yufei leaned close to Duan Yu's ear.
Duan Yu pursed his lips.
He would never let what Gu Yufei said happen.
No one can take her away from her.

Half a month later
In the damp corner of the prison, Li Qingxuan's figure looked particularly desolate.
Her belly grew bigger day by day, as if carrying the heavy weight of fate. Her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with the despair of being unable to live or die.
Whenever the early morning sunlight shone through the cracks in the high wall onto her thin body, she could feel Gu Yufei's cruel order, "She must be kept alive," echoing in her ears.
"Eat these quickly and don't try to play tricks." The jailer threw down the food and said viciously.
This woman works hard every day.
Because of her, he couldn't spare a minute.
I can't let her die, nor can I let her have an easy life. It's really too difficult.
Li Qingxuan picked up the bowl on the ground and ate silently.
The double torture of pregnancy reaction and psychological stress made Li Qingxuan become skinny. Her eyes were empty and lifeless, as if she had lost all expectations for life.
Across from them, Zhang Ling was chained with heavy iron chains. He and Li Qingxuan were also prisoners in this dark place. They would curse each other several times a day. It was their only form of communication, the truest cry from within this prison.
Li Qingxuan was eating when the sound of footsteps in the distance came closer and closer.
Gu Yufei took Qingwen into this place full of mold and despair.
Qingwen's steps were light and firm. There was no anger in her eyes, only a deep calmness. The moment she saw Li Qingxuan, the waves in her heart seemed to have really subsided.
After seeing who was coming, a trace of fear flashed in Li Qingxuan's eyes. She knew that another enemy of hers had come to her.
Qingwen walked up to Li Qingxuan, her voice calm and clear: "Li Qingxuan, I am here to take your life. Do you still remember me?" These words echoed in the cell, like an inescapable judgment.
Of course Li Qingxuan remembered Qingwen.
This was the first person she harmed, when she had just crossed over.
Li Qingxuan's lips trembled, but she did not beg for mercy. She knew that in this world, some debts must be repaid.
A complex expression flashed across Qingwen's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She unhooked the dagger from her waist, its cold light gleaming in the dim cell.
Just when Qingwen was about to take action, suddenly, Zhang Ling's voice broke the silence: "Wait a minute!" Although his voice was hoarse, it was full of power.
Qingwen stopped what she was doing and turned to look at Zhang Ling.
