As she spoke, Liao Zhaoji just plopped down on the ground and began to wail bitterly, all the while voicing the hardships she had endured over the years.
Ruan Jiandang was afraid that her crying would summon the Ruanlin Family, so he tried to pull her up. However, Liao Zhaoji let herself go completely, shook off his hand, and with every breath, she cried that she did not want to live anymore, gasping for air in her sobs.
Ruan Jiandang had no other choice and could only say, "Alright, alright, stop crying—I'll figure something out! I'll find a way!"
"Really??" Liao Zhaoji's face, still wet with tears, turned to look at him.
Ruan Jiandang nodded, his expression dark and heavy.
Liao Zhaoji's face instantly blossomed into a smile. No longer needing Ruan Jiandang's help, she sprang up from the ground on her own.
