Chapter 285 - 266: Goodbye My Love
Gu Qili sat in the car, gazing at the villa nearby. A light was on in a room on the second floor, with the curtains drawn. A delicate shadow flitted by the window for a moment before vanishing.
Soon, the light went out, and the villa fell silent.
...Are they asleep already?
When they are sleeping, does he hold her close in his arms, whispering sweet shy nothings to her?
Perhaps they are truly the matched pair destined by heaven, with old flames rekindled after so many years, lovers finally united. She should be magnanimous enough to bless him, shouldn’t she?
But she couldn’t do it. In love, she became so narrow-minded and selfish, so fragile and pitiful.
Now, what she had just witnessed had slapped her face harshly; it must be painful enough to awaken her. Their journey together ended here.
Even if she doesn’t want to let go, what can she do? After all, the one he loves most isn’t her.
From a window on the second floor, Mu Shuoqian stood behind the curtain, peering outside through a thin gap, seeing the car parked not far below and the girl slumped over the steering wheel; even his breath bore the tinge of pain.
The heavy rain poured down, and he couldn’t help but wipe away the moisture on the glass to see her more clearly. But the rain was too heavy, and as soon as he wiped the moisture away, new condensation formed again.
She must have completely despaired over him by now. This way, she can return to her pure world. Even if heartbreak brings pain, this pain will eventually pass; it won’t take long for her to forget this hurt he caused, to completely forget him. She will start a new romance, have someone she admires, get married, have children... and continue on in an ordinary life.
He never asked to possess her in this life, only wishing her peace for the rest of her life.
