C90 (1/2)

When I returned home, Jiang Yu was already sitting on the sofa, waiting for me. He looked to be in rags, with bruises on his face.

”What's wrong?”

Too many things had happened today, and my heart was in chaos.

Seeing him in such a sorry state, I didn't have much energy to care.

He walked to the bathroom and filled his cup with water before sinking into the bath.

The pressure of the water, the feeling of suffocation that made me unable to escape, assaulted me. My whole body sunk into it, and in that instant, many things appeared in my mind.

I began to recall my life.

From the moment I met Lin Mu at the age of eighteen, my life had practically revolved around that man.

He was the one who took me out of the time I didn't want to remember, the one who let me know that even if I was born that bad, I was still worth being loved for.

I admit I hated him, but it was all because I loved him.

Because I loved him, I could not love anyone else for so many years after his death.

Because of my love for him, I have always been unable to rationally face my own heart.

Because I loved him, I had always regarded my relationship and feelings with Jiang Yu as treacherous and unshakeable.

Although I don't think so myself, I have always subconsciously rejected such relationships and feelings.

Maybe it was because of this that I was so angry and unable to control my emotions when I found out he was still alive.

Because if I had known that he had betrayed me, I wouldn't have tortured myself for so long.

The feeling of suffocation grew stronger and stronger, and the burning pain in my lungs forced me to surface.

I hate him, I hate Lin Mu.

But that doesn't mean that my life will continue to get dark because I hate him.

Not worth it.

After understanding all of this, he suddenly felt relieved in his heart.

Since he had already betrayed me, there was no one who let down others between us.

From today on, I will face everything I have and revisit my feelings and my heart.

I walked out of the bathroom in my pajamas and saw Jiang Yu sitting on the sofa to clean up the medicine.

I walked to his side and gently caressed his face.

There was color on his face, but it didn't change the fact that he was a good-looking man.

The face had a fatal attraction for me.

Especially his eyes.

The pair of deep eyes that I could not figure out at one time became hazy. At this moment, they had become the most enchanting existence.

There were a few traces of bruises on his eyes, and it was precisely because of these scars that his originally feminine face now had a hint of determination.

”How?”

My hand brushed the wound on his face, and I heard him groan almost inaudibly.

When did he become so important to me?

Every scar on his body made my heart ache with ease.

”Can you forget him?”

His eyes were filled with confusion, but when he opened his mouth, there was a faint smell of alcohol.

The originally irresistible voice, at this moment, had a hint of a whisper, as if a child who had begged for her child was acting coquettishly.

He took my hand and lay in my arms. I gently stroked his soft hair and nodded. ”Okay.”

There was no hesitation, nor was there any worry.

I gave him my word.

Jiang Yu's eyes suddenly lit up. He leapt out of my embrace and placed his hands on the sofa, maintaining a certain distance from me. However, his eyes met mine.
