Qian Shudie watched Su Nian's departing figure, his arm around Xu Xinrou's waist, like a pair of celestial lovers.
Such a scene deeply pierced her heart. Recalling the days when they sat on the lawn basking in the sun in the Demon Emperor's City, the stark contrast left her feeling empty inside.
"Sigh... Fei Die, I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."
Suddenly, Shen Xingyue let out a long sigh.
Qian Shudie sniffed, calming herself down, and blinked curiously, "What did you say?"
