Gu Xi, however, looked at him and said, "Back then, when I agreed to live a quiet life with you in the mountains after everything was over, I was serious."
But Yun Ye had betrayed that sincerity.
The man across from her froze, as if he couldn't believe what Gu Xi was saying.

After a long moment, he looked at Gu Xi and spoke slowly. "Then what about now? Xiaoxi, what if I said…"
"There are no 'what ifs'." Gu Xi looked at him and slowly shook her head.
'She never doubted that Yun Ye did eventually come to like her. But his affection was tainted by too many other things. From the very beginning, his feelings for her were never pure.'
Yun Ye fell silent. He understood what she meant.
But… he couldn't accept it.
