"No..." Crawling out of his embrace, she timidly said, "This is all my fault... Back then, if I hadn't been so narrow-minded and naive, causing you... causing you to find it unbearable to stay in this home, you definitely wouldn't have dropped out of school to join the army. You were such a good student, you could've attended a great university, you wouldn't need to be living this challenging and dangerous life now."
She vaguely remembered that his initial choice for university was a medical school. If he had become a doctor, he wouldn't be covered in scars.
Su Chaoyang gently wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with his thumb, repeating, "I've told you I don't blame you for that, why can't you let it go? Don't you trust what I say? Even though I hadn't initially considered joining the military, once I was there, I realized I actually liked it very much."
