For a moment, she could not hide her guilt towards Gong Fan and her eyes turned red.
Noticing her reddened eyes, Gong Fan's hardened heart began to soften. He couldn't bear to make things difficult for her, nor could he bear to threaten her to change her decision. He had been let go of, and he accepted that.
In the past, he had sworn that no matter what her decision was, he would always trust her and protect her. Therefore, Gong Fan couldn't bear to put the blame on her, especially after seeing her tears. But since it was her decision, he accepted it silently.
Gong Fan knew and could tell that it must have been painful for her to make this choice. She was hesitant, even now. He didn't want to ask her to reconsider her decision. After all, if this were to go on, he'd be tired, too, and so would the others. Since it was such torture, it was better to let go and give up. This way, everyone would feel better and more relaxed.
