Anqi's footsteps came to a halt.
Bai Qingzhu looked at Xiao Lijin, almost ready to intervene.
But Anqi suddenly turned her head and said, "Since you so desire to know the answer, then I'll tell you. It was never about your mother between us; it's that I have no feelings for you. Just like Ancheng said, I appreciate your admiration, but we really can't be together."
Shangguan Liuyun's eyes were full of hurt.
Seeing him like this, everyone found it unbearable, yet this man was truly mad. Why must he torment himself to this extent before he is satisfied?
As they left, everyone went over and pulled him to his feet.
"Alright, you've heard the answer you were waiting for. Isn't that enough?"
Shangguan Liuyun sat on the ground, not sure whether to cry or laugh, never imagining that fate could be so cruel to him. Was loving someone sincerely truly that difficult?
