Lin Hongyu looked at her and slightly curled his lips. Now, Xiaoyi should be satisfied, right?
"Oh, okay, I'll get ready." Luo Xiaoyi readily agreed. She was determined to do what she wanted to do, relying on her own abilities and doing it legitimately. However, she was a little nervous. Would she be able to pass the exam? Anyway, she would do her best for the sake of her child.
Lin Hongyu pondered that even if Luo Xiaoyi failed the exam, he would secretly find a way to bribe the examiner to help her pass. However, that would be a last resort; he still believed in Xiaoyi's abilities.
Seeing Luo Xiaoyi readily agree, Lin Hongyu was very pleased. His love marathon had finally begun, and a sense of anticipation arose in his heart.
The LCD TV on the wall had been on all along, but they hadn't noticed it, probably because they were too focused on talking. However, a news report on the TV caught their attention.
Four eyes turned to the news on the television. The attractive news anchor announced: "Mr. Ou Zihan, the richest man in Country A, and Ms. Bai Zhi are deeply in love and will soon be getting married. The wedding date is set for the 15th of this month. It will be an unprecedentedly grand wedding, a couple that will be the envy of the entire nation..."
Then, romantic and heartwarming wedding photos of Ou Zihan and Bai Zhi appeared on the screen, one after another. The two were intimately embracing each other. Ou Zihan was wearing a sharp suit, looking as perfect as Apollo, making people so infatuated that they couldn't help but fall in love. His face was filled with a happy smile. Bai Zhi was wearing a pure white and sexy wedding dress, nestled in his arms, smiling more brightly than flowers.
Bai Zhi's smile was a blissful smile that drove all the young women in Country A mad with envy.
But it was a cruel smile that plunged Luo Xiaoyi into an abyss.
As you flip through the photos, you see them embracing, kissing... in all sorts of romantic and happy poses.
Lin Hongyu's eyes widened in surprise.
Luo Xiaoyi's eyes were almost blinded by the stinging...
As she gazed at the scene, tears streamed down Luo Xiaoyi's face without her realizing it. This was the beautiful wedding dress she had always dreamed of wearing, the image of her marrying this man she had always dreamed of—now, it was all a distant, fading memory…
She suddenly stood up from the sofa and ran upstairs as if fleeing, tears streaming down her face. She covered her mouth to stop herself from crying.
"Xiaoyi, Xiaoyi..." Lin Hongyu quickly got up to chase after her, his worried voice continuing. Just as he caught up with Luo Xiaoyi and was about to reach out to grab her, Luo Xiaoyi had already entered the bedroom before him.
With a bang, she slammed the bedroom door shut. Immediately afterward, Lin Hongyu heard Luo Xiaoyi lock the door from the inside. "Thump, thump, thump..." He pounded on the door with his fists, over and over again, his heart pounding with worry!
"Xiaoyi, open the door! Don't do anything rash! Ou Zihan is such a heartless man, he's not worth you being so heartbroken. Xiaoyi, don't do anything stupid!" Lin Hongyu's deep voice was full of anxiety. He was really afraid that Xiaoyi would do something foolish like committing suicide!
Yes, Ou Zihan is such a heartless man that he is not worth her tears. At this moment, she is hiding in a space where no one is around. She leans against the door and slides her whole body off the door, squats on the ground, hugs her knees, and buries her face in her knees.
Her muffled sobs could no longer express her overwhelming emotions; her grief surged forth like a flood.
In a place where she could cry, where no one laughed at her and no one saw her, she could hide away and cry.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Hongyu heard Luo Xiaoyi's heart-wrenching cries from inside the room. She was a very stoic girl. In the past, she had suffered grievances and abuse at home, leaving her covered in bruises.
Every time Lin Hongyu found her in the dark corner, she would sob softly, almost without making a sound. Xiaoyi was always like this, even her crying was suppressed, and even when she cried, she revealed her strength.
However, this was the first time Lin Hongyu had heard her cry so loudly and so sadly. It broke his heart, and his eyes turned red and wet.
He wanted to wipe away her tears, he wanted to heal her wounds, he wanted to hold her in his arms and make sure she never shed a tear again in her life.
"Xiaoyi, please open the door, okay? Let me tell you something, okay? You still have family, your brother, Luo Bin, and me. You still have these important people in your life..." Lin Hongyu's voice choked with sobs. He wanted to rekindle her hope for life because he could sense her despair and knew he couldn't let anything happen to her.
Xiaoyi still wouldn't open the door. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. He took out his phone and quickly searched on Baidu to find the phone number of the nearest locksmith company. As soon as the call connected, he yelled into the phone, telling them they had to be there within ten minutes!
Then he started talking to the door. He kept talking and talking, talking about Luo Bin, Luo Shaoyi, about him, about their past, one thing after another. He talked tirelessly, exhausting his words and energy in an effort to arouse her desire to live.
In the room, Luo Xiaoyi cried for a long time before finally stopping. Why should a man who has already let go cry anymore?
What's left between her and Ou Zihan? It seems like all that's left are some sweet photos. These photos were taken when she and Ou Zihan went to the castle that day. Han Yue felt it was a historically significant moment for them, so Han Yue secretly took a few pictures with her phone, developed them, and gave them to Luo Xiaoyi as a keepsake.
She took out these treasured photos from the drawer of the bookcase. In the photos, she was nestled happily in Ou Zihan's arms, her lips curving into a happy smile.
There was also the image of Ou Zihan holding her in his arms, gazing at her with devoted tenderness; and the image of Ou Zihan kissing her lips at the birthday dinner he had prepared for her;... scene after scene vividly flashed before my eyes...
She held a photograph in one hand and a lighter in the other. She lit the lighter, and the flame burned towards the edge of the photograph. The edge of the photograph caught fire, bit by bit, burning away her feet, her legs, her body, and her face in the photograph.
At that moment, she felt as if she was being destroyed bit by bit.
In the photo, only Ou Zihan, that handsome man, stood there alone. Looking into his affectionate eyes in the photo, as if those eyes were staring at her, her tears fell again. Zihan, from now on, your focused gaze will only be directed at the woman you have always loved.
She said to the child in her womb, "Baby, look, this is your father. Isn't your father handsome? Your father is a great hero. He's going to fight a war in a faraway place and can't be by your side. Don't blame him..."
But don't be sad, Mom will love you even more. Then, the flames spread, bit by bit, burning Ou Zihan in the photo away...
This time, she said goodbye to Ou Zihan for good!

Then, one photo after another, she threw them into the flames of the trash can. The flames inside the trash can were burning very high. Suddenly, she shakily reached one of her small hands into the raging fire...
That way, her heart won't hurt anymore...
