But Chen Zhi is different; she's a woman, her heart is soft, and once hurt, the wounds are hard to heal.
She doesn't have his ruthlessness, the ability to forget her mother's death and live with him as if nothing happened.
However, she can't bring herself to hate him, to treat him with finality.
Simply because she loves both her deceased mother and him...
The person she loves the most caused the death of the one she was closest to; she's actually the greatest victim, and no one can truly understand her inner torment.
The more Si Ye thought about it, the more his heart ached for her. Knowing full well how much pain she was in, he still couldn't bear to let go...
He held Chen Zhi tightly, doing nothing more. Just holding her like that, silently offering her comfort, giving her support.
Chen Zhi cried for a while and then stopped. She wiped away her tears, went to the bathroom for a shower, and changed into a clean outfit.
