Back then, she had been young and naïve. She had followed behind Shen Luo'an like a dutiful little wife. Everyone had thought that they would be together forever. In the short course of a few years, everything had changed.
Ye Youyou worked hard to hold back her tears. She looked at Shen Luo'an in front of her and didn't say a word.
As Shen Luo'an looked at this version of Ye Youyou before him, he felt a deep sense of shame take root in his heart.
It should never have turned out like that. He should never have been in this state in front of her.
His throat ached. Shen Luo'an was about to say something, but the ache in this throat prevented a single word from being uttered.
"Why?" Ye Youyou's voice was gentle. It echoed back in the empty room.
Shen Luo'an looked at her and chuckled. "Why what?"
"Why are you taking the fall for me?" Ye Youyou's beautiful and dazzling eyes turned imperceptibly red. "You clearly didn't commit this crime."
