"Gu Xin." Di Yi did not seem to know what else to say. He held her face and slowly said, "Marry Di An, and he'll treat you well."
"No!" Gu Xin shook her head, devastated. "I thought that when the whole world was urging us not to get married, you would be as determined as I am. You would be like me, marrying me no matter what happens. Why did you have to back out? Why did you have to compromise?!"
"I'm sorry, Gu Xin. I'm not as determined as you. I can't use you as a bet. I can't be stubborn when I can't protect you completely."
Gu Xin was utterly disappointed.
She had thought that love was not like this.
The love she always believed in was that they would be together no matter what happened.
She never thought that love could be like this. It wavered so easily.
"Gu Xin…" Di Yi called out softly when he saw how upset she was.
He actually hated the situation as well.
Why did his father have to give Di An whatever Di An wanted?
