Qiu Chi clenched his fist, filled with regret. “I know I was wrong. I just wanted you to give up, not to push you into another man’s arms!” He had never thought he would one day have feelings for her.
Now, these words were useless. The real Qiu Ruofeng was already dead. Ruofeng looked at him, “Qiu Chi, it’s too late.” Too late to be separated by life and death, with no chance to know Qiu Ruofeng’s answer.
After a moment of silence, Qiu Chi asked, “Ten years of devotion, can you really let go so easily? Can we not even be friends?”
The man before her was elegantly dressed and charming. No wonder Qiu Ruofeng had once obsessed over him. Her gaze carried a slight admiration but also sadness. “When I loved you, you were everything; now that I don’t love you, you are nothing. Just because there were ten years of devotion doesn’t mean there’s no end. So, Qiu Chi, you and Qiu Ruofeng are truly over.” She looked at him seriously, “I said you’re a good man.”
“Perhaps after everything is resolved, we can be friends again.”
Qiu Chi suddenly stood up, staring at her intensely. “Qiu Ruofeng, I suspect your ten years were also an act. Can you truly say you devoted yourself?”
He continued to stare at her, as if trying to see into her heart. “Loving when you say love, not loving when you say you don’t—Qiu Ruofeng, I’m impressed by how easily you control your emotions.”
After finishing his statement, he turned and left. Qiu Chi, a proud son of heaven, had a slight fondness for Qiu Ruofeng but was unwilling to trample his pride beneath her feet.
After a moment of silence, her elder brother’s voice came through the phone. “Feng’er, I’m sorry. In the past, I never helped you when Sui Feng hurt you. Now, I need you to help her.” He took a deep breath. “Sui Feng is losing too much blood. Can you get Qi Feng to save her?”
Ru Feng closed her eyes and said nothing. On the other end, Ying Feng clenched his fists, knowing how difficult this was for Ru Feng. Yet Sui Feng’s life was at stake, and only Ru Feng could persuade her second brother to help.
