"But I can't let go of him, and I don't want to let him go."
Yao Mingyue lifted her head, her swollen eyes filled with grievance and sadness, but there was still a glimmer that could not be extinguished even today.
It was the flame that ignited six years ago, when Xu Musen held her during her darkest times.

"But he has already..."
Liu Rushuang didn't know what to say. Should she watch her precious daughter go after someone else's love interest?
Her own daughter, so outstanding, this would be too unfair to her.
"But at least, he is still by my side, isn't he? I can still see him, talk to him, at least I can still... as childhood sweethearts..."
Yao Mingyue spoke softly, thinking back on six years ago, her father's departure hadn't given her any choice.
