Su Qiqi was completely stunned, her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't utter a single word.
Thinking about everything Mo Chen had experienced, her throat became choked. He was an illegitimate child who had overcome countless hardships to reach the top.
The bitterness he must have tasted was not necessary to mention. Just thinking about it made Su Qiqi feel uncomfortable.
"I..." Her mouth opened and closed again, genuinely at a loss on how to face Mo Chen.
Mo Chen, who had silently given his all for her behind the scenes, had done more than what Su Qiqi could have ever imagined anyone would do for her.
Except for the time Jin Muchen had recklessly jumped into the sea for her.
Mo Chen chuckled softly, but there was no trace of humor in the depths of his eyes, it seemed more like self-mockery.
He had exhausted all his strength to get here, he had contemplated countless endings, yet the one he ended up with was the one that hurt him the most.
