This sentence seemed to make him understand that in this life, there was one person he could never wait for to return.
That's why he knew, when the night fell and the lights dimmed, why he sometimes felt directionless, as if abandoned by his most beloved, and felt the urge to cry.
"I don't know what I can possibly do to keep her, I just thought, by letting her know, that as long as she's by my side, she would live a life of luxury and be waited on hand and foot, but without me, she would have nothing, even to the point of doing laundry and cooking for others."
Even if she stayed by his side just because he was wealthy, Ye Che had stopped caring; he deluded himself with a thousand excuses, attempting to be content.
But all these were met with the decisive words, "I would rather sell myself, demean myself, but never in front of you, Ye Che."
