Chapter 442

No matter how she begged, no matter what conditions she proposed to atone for her sins, the Emperor never relented.

So she hated; she could understand the Emperor's resentment, so she vented all her anger on Su Ye. If Su Ye could have taken her away at that time, would the ending have been different?

She willingly became an undercover agent and was also prepared to die with Su Ye.

Su Ye felt a bit heartbroken for her after hearing these stories, and his eyes drooped silently.

"Then why did you give me armor? If you didn't give it, wouldn't I have died faster?"

Nanako smiled bitterly, "I didn't lie to you about that vest. When I gave it to you, I did indeed treat you as a husband, after all, I once liked you. But passing information was also something I had to do, after all, it was for the country."

Su Ye closed his eyes and turned his back.

"Then solve it yourself; you should know this is the result."

Nanako didn't speak, and tears fell to the ground plop, plop.

Indeed, she had always been prepared for this, and even when she learned that the mission had failed, she wanted to end her own life.

Looking at Su Ye's back, she walked over step by step, raising her hand, wanting to hug him one last time.

Su Ye's reaction was very sensitive; feeling the movement, he immediately dodged to the side and looked vigilantly.

Nanako was particularly aggrieved, "Do I not even have this bit of trust in your heart? Do you think I would still hurt you at this time?"

Her heart was so sad; perhaps this was her end... Without waiting for Su Ye's answer, she acted cleanly and neatly.

She raised her hand and wiped her own neck, fresh blood flowing directly, spraying Su Ye all over his face.

Su Ye couldn't hold on anymore and stepped forward to hug Nanako's body.

"It's not like that, I didn't mean that..."

Su Ye's words were very weak when he said this, because he knew his own heart; at the moment he moved, he had indeed misunderstood.

Nanako spat out blood, her speech somewhat blurred.

"Su... Su-san... don't be sad... I don't regret liking..."

Before the words were finished, Nanako completely stopped breathing.

A tear slid down the corner of Su Ye's eye. Did he do something wrong from the beginning?

If he hadn't been serious with the Sakura Country, there wouldn't have been a war. If he hadn't used mental control on Nanako every time something happened, would he have had a little more trust in her?

If he hadn't arranged for Nanako to be here, but in a hotel outside, or some other safer place, so that Nanako didn't have the opportunity to eavesdrop on information, could the ending have been changed?

Unfortunately... everything had no "if"...

Su Ye held Nanako's corpse, piled up a pile of firewood in the courtyard, and cremated her.

He put her in an urn and rushed to the sea at the fastest speed, heading toward the direction of Sakura Valley, scattering the ashes.

"I couldn't let you return to your hometown while you were alive. Now that you are gone, let me send you on your final journey..."

After handling Nanako's funeral, Su Ye was physically and mentally exhausted.

Returning to the Wuzhuang Force, he locked himself in his room and saw no one.

He wanted to be quiet for a while and find the direction for the future path.
