Wen Jinkai felt so much disgust towards the woman in front of him that he couldn't fathom to look at her any longer. He dropped her to the ground, finally having enough of her sickening tricks. It was all too familiar to him, that sweet beckoning and plea.
"Son…" she trailed off, in a broken plea.
When was the last time she was this desperate? When was the last time the Empress wanted him to do something? He could still recall the days she invited him to the tea room, whispering lies into his ears until it tainted his heart.
It was the same voice, the same despair that convinced him Li Minghua was the villain in his life.
Believing the Empress's lies before had already harmed him for the rest of eternity. He refused to fall into that same cycle over and over again. Enough was enough.
