Back then, those who had the right to ask me didn't dare to, and now, when I least deserve to, I've blurted it out.
Gu Tingshen said nothing, simply drove on and took me to his place, leaving me feeling somewhat uneasy.
This was my second time coming here, standing at his door I felt awkward, yet right now Gu Tingshen was my last lifeline.
I let him lead me to sit in front of the sofa. He pulled out a pair of slippers, and as I reached out to take them, he bent down and placed them beside my feet.
I didn't know why, but my nose felt an unbidden twinge, my eyes quickly turning away; I had dreamt of this scene countless times before.
Before my family's disaster struck, my greatest dream was to have my own career, then marry Gu Tingshen and have a happy family.
But now, everything had changed, that dream would never come true.
