Xiang Yang finally told Shi Ke everything that had happened to her when she was young. This time, she told her tale to the man she loved the most.

It was an extremely difficult and risky decision for her. If Shi Ke was bothered about her past, she would have to be prepared to leave him. But even so, Xiang Yang still told him. No matter what happens, she should face it bravely. She also didn’t want Shi Ke to hear about her past from others in the future.

When she finished her tale, Xiang Yang cried as she said, “The mother of that classmate who passed away said she would never forgive me; she would curse me for the rest of her life. So, I always felt… that I’m not worthy of you—”

Shi Ke embraced Xiang Yang once again and uttered, “Silly girl, why are you so silly? That wasn’t your fault; you were also a victim. Why should they vent their anger on you? Only incompetents would do that.”

All the grievances Xiang Yang had kept in her heart welled up within her. “I—I didn’t become anyone’s girlfriend. I just—I just didn’t reject the flowers and gifts they gave me. They were the ones who mistakenly thought that I liked them, that they were my boyfriend. That’s how I comforted myself, but… but someone died, after all!” Xiang Yang cried.

“I can’t absolve myself of the blame. It’s only right that those boys’ parents hate me and resent me. I don’t know what I can do to atone for my sins. I don’t know… A person like me doesn’t deserve to be happy or deserve to have an outstanding husband like you…”

Shi Ke gently patted her back. He could sense that Xiang Yang was feeling more helpless than ever before. Shi Ke had always known that the cold and aloof impression Xiang Yang gave others on the surface was just her disguise. Xiang Yang was just a spacey, innocent little girl before Shi Ke. However, he didn’t know that there was such a deep scar in her heart.

Shi Ke tried his best to coax and comfort her. “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. If only I had met you earlier, then those people wouldn’t have had anything to do with you. Don’t cry; you won’t be in any state to go out tomorrow if you keep crying. It’s all my fault. Honey, why don’t you punish me? You can punish me by making me carry you to bed.”

The more he coaxed, the harder Xiang Yang cried. Shi Ke knew that what Xiang Yang needed was to vent. Only by venting all the negative emotions that had accumulated in her heart for so many years could her injuries slowly recover. And he, Shi Ke, was her lifetime healer. As such, he decided that the healing of
