Chi Xingye could only steel herself to say, "Everything I told you that day, it was all the truth! We're not meant to be together. Why the insistence, Helian Chengyan? Why hold onto me so tightly, causing us both pain?"
"I haven't been happy these days, and I believe it's the same for you!" Chi Xingye's eyes welled up with tears as she looked long and hard at him, "When two people are together, the most important thing is not the depth of their love, but happiness! Chengyan, our relationship only brings endless pain to both of us! What's the point in harming each other?!"
Where does the pain come from?
If one has never tasted the beauty of love or the happiness it brings, how would they understand the pain that is its opposite?!
Helian Chengyan's ruby eyes flickered, staring fixedly at her.
With a throat dry with pain, he swallowed hard before asking, "Chi Xingye, do you truly feel no lingering attachment to me at all?!"
Chi Xingye's heart ached suddenly.
How could she not?!
