"I..."
Before Jiang Nuo could speak, the voice interrupted him.
[No! You don't love her. If you truly loved her, you wouldn't let her suffer like this.]
"That's not true, I really love her. I didn't want to make her suffer, I just wanted to tell her the truth."
[Your truth is to tell her that she betrayed you.]
Jiang Nuo was speechless. Telling her the truth would cause her pain, but not telling her would mean she lives in a lie forever.
The voice continued to persuade him: [It's better to let her be happy for a lifetime than to endure pain.]
"But that's a lie..."
[As long as she can be fooled for a lifetime, what's the harm? She would never know the truth even until her death. Does it matter if it's true or false, as long as she is happy?]
Although this voice caused Jiang Nuo much pain, he couldn't help but admit that, in some sense, it was right.
If one is deceived for a lifetime, the truth truly matters little because until death they would believe it to be "true".
