127. Chapter 127: Fear of Loss 1

Now he suddenly appeared before me in the flesh, telling me he missed me, telling me he had never forgotten me, telling me how he loved me……

I don't understand—why was he so cruel to me back then, and why does he appear again now? When I was slowly removing him from my life, from my mind, why does he show up to tell me he misses me? What is this all about? After finally being able to be with Shangguan Yun, why does he have to appear at this moment? Is this fate? Is it fated?

I felt powerless, my limbs went limp, my whole body felt heavy—unbeknownst to me, tears had already traced my cheeks and slowly reached the corners of my mouth; the tears were icy, bitter……

"Xuanxuan, what's wrong?" Huiqing saw my tears and hurriedly took my hand, asking with concern.

"Are you doing this for him?" Shangguan Yun's voice remained as cold and devoid of warmth as ever.

I quickly raised my hand to wipe the tears from my cheeks, forcing a faint smile at the corner of my eyes onto my lips and said, "No, it's fine, it's fine."

I don't understand why I'm crying—is it for him? For Haohua? For his words? My thoughts are a tangled mess; I can't find a beginning or an end, unable to untangle or discard them.

Shangguan Yun took me directly to a hotel, not to Huiqing's place; perhaps Huiqing also thought I needed to clear things up with Shangguan Yun, so she didn't stop us.

Thus, numb, I followed Shangguan Yun to the hotel, all the way to the room, without saying a word.

After entering the room, Shangguan Yun stood by the window looking outside, while I sat on the bed; neither of us made a sound, neither spoke.

After a long while—I don't know how much time had passed—Shangguan Yun finally turned around, slowly walked to my side and sat down; his complexion was awful, his face gloomy, brows furrowed.

Several times he twitched the corner of his mouth, wanting to say something to me, but he never managed to speak.
