He Xiyan's fingers left his face but she continued to keep her gaze trained on him.
She closely observed the change in his emotions. She first saw shock fill his eyes, then it turned conflicted before it turned resolute.
She had clearly correctly guessed his decision.
"Yan Yan, you are backing me into a corner." Mo Yixuan frowned and reached out to grip her shoulders.
He Xiyan smiled once more, her lips curling contemptuously.
"Yes, that's exactly what I'm doing! Yixuan, you know deep in your heart that you care most about your son and your son's mother, Xia Yuwei. I am neither of these people, so why did you still look for me?"
What was the point in him looking for her? She was the person he abandoned. Even if she wanted to start all over again, wouldn't he make the same choice once more?
Mo Yixuan closed his eyes and under the sunlight, his face was pale and melancholic.
