Chapter 114: That’s OK
Bai Qiulan’s chest heaved violently.
After scolding Shangguan Huanling, she turned back to look at Yue Hongling, not even giving herself time to calm her own emotions.
“And then?”
“Then she said, if Senior Brother forgives us, it means he doesn’t love us. Only if he doesn’t forgive us, does it mean he still loves us.”
“She made me choose—between being forgiven and unloved, or being loved but never forgiven.”
Forgiveness meant letting go—letting go of a past love.
As long as love remained, the pain of being betrayed by the one you loved most would never disappear.
Which one to choose?
Bai Qiulan thought that, without question, she would choose the first.
As long as she was forgiven, that undeserved love—let it be thrown away.
But when she was really faced with the choice, she found herself in torment, unable to decide.
Neither of the two seemed like the answer she truly wanted.
