Chapter 283 - 264 She is the Love of My Life_2
"It must be fate that she later returned to Aus City, becoming an unknown actress in Bai Chengxi’s company. One time, we were playing cards at Xiangshan Club, and Bai Chengxi invited several artists to join us. She was one of them."
"Did she recover her memory then?"
"She had recovered a long time ago, but she always feared facing me, worried that I might disdain her." Mu Shuoqian said this with a soft ripple of tenderness on his lips, which under the warm sunshine, seemed incomparably beautiful.
Even though Gu Qili had seen him smile countless times, none were comparable to the smile he wore now—obsessive, pure, adoring, profound—it was a smile meant for that ’Little Rain’.
"How could I disdain her, when she is the love of my life?" Mu Shuoqian slowly finished speaking, his gaze turning tender and lingering once again.
Qiqi, you are the love of my life. Other than you, I could never love anyone else in this lifetime. From now on, you’re free to love whoever you want, marry him if you so choose, and I— I will not stop loving you; on the contrary, I will love you even more, for I don’t know any other way to live.
Gu Qili felt a pain in her eyes caused by his gentle smile. While he spoke these words, his expression was so intensely focused, as if recalling every little memory with her. She thought, he truly must have been devastatingly in love with that ’Little Rain,’ and perhaps that’s why he transferred the unattainable love meant for Little Rain onto her.
Bearing the sharp pain in her heart, she spoke again, trying not to appear too flustered, "One last question. If she came back, why did you still want to elope with me, to abandon everything and go to Australia with me?"
This had puzzled her incessantly, if he wanted to reconcile with Little Rain, what was the necessity of this drama with He Mi.
Mu Shuoqian still looked out the window, never daring to meet her eyes from start to finish, hearing her heavy nasal voice as if she were crying, fearing that seeing her tears would soften his heart - he can’t bear her tears anymore.
