Xiang Wan looked at the glint of cold light on the blade he was holding, her mind reeled for a moment, but quickly, hatred surged into her heart, propelling her to grab the knife.
But facing Zuo Xingyun's face, she found herself unable to strike.
Scenes from the past began to surface in her mind. As a child, she had kept a hamster, but hamsters have short lives. She hadn't taken care of it carefully enough, and it hadn't been long before it died.
She and Zuo Xingyun had buried the hamster together, sobbing uncontrollably.
He held her and whispered, "You still have me. I won't leave you. I will always be by your side."
In every moment when she was sad or in danger afterwards, he would appear just in time. The sense of security he provided was unmatched by anyone else, but it was he who ruined everything for her...
Tears streamed down her cheeks, and Zuo Xingyun's distinct features began to blur behind the waterworks.
