Qiao Muye delivered a crushing blow to the old lady.
But in reality, this was a pyrrhic victory for him.
Whenever he thought of the past, he felt unbearably pained, almost wishing for death over life.
So many times, he considered just ending it all.
But when he thought of the words Han Rujin said before she left, he felt even he wasn't worthy to accompany her in the afterlife.
He could only lead a listless life in this world.
Using the money he earned to do good deeds and accumulate virtue.
If this could earn him a meeting in the next life...
Next life...
He would certainly...
He couldn't continue the thought.
Because, no one knows if there really is a next life.
It's too ethereal and intangible.
There's only this life.
Only this one existence.
Which is undoubtedly real.
But he lost Han Rujin.
And could never find her again.
In this life, he never properly protected her, cherished her, allowing her to suffer so much harm.
