"I'm sorry." There was nothing else she could say.
"I don't want your apology. You didn't do anything to me. The one you should be apologising to is Gong Yi. I'm begging you, please, please leave my son."
Bai Beibei stared at her feet. After a long while, she agreed. "Alright."
As she said this, large tears fell from her eyes.
Old Man Gong did not expect her to agree so readily. It left him stunned.
Bai Beibei stood up and offered Old Man Gong a stiff bow, "I'm really sorry. Please accept my apology. I've troubled you greatly. Please accept this apology on behalf of my mother as well. I don't know whether she'll ever be released in this lifetime, but perhaps it is for the best. I'll take my leave first. Please... be more careful with your health... Gong Yi. Even if you don't believe me, I really do love Gong Yi very much. Goodbye."
Bai Beibei departed, having said all she needed to say.
