SILENCE filled the room once again after Shen Yi Mu asked that question. He didn't force the other to answer his question immediately. Instead, he waited. And waited.
He didn't know how much time had passed nor did he care. He was simply observing Jiang Yue. So, he could see the struggle on his face. He clearly didn't want to answer his question. But at the same time, there must be a part of him who wanted to explain himself. Thus, the struggle.
Then, Jiang Yue closed his eyes. The moment he opened them, the fear and confusion in his eyes disappeared. They were replaced by determination and resignation. He took a deep breath before muttering;
"I left... I left because at that time I truly thought that it was the best choice for the both of us."
