"Azhi, you said you would give Ling Tian'ao your answer in a week, whether you would return to the Ling Family or not. So, are you going to go back?" Dongye Runyi asked reluctantly.
Thinking of the dream where Ling Tian'ao was with Yun Kezhi.
Her jealousy and her heartache.
"Quanquan, have you ever loved someone, or hated someone? I have loved and hated the same person. But knowing there is so much pain, I still can't let go."
"I don't want to torment myself any longer... it hurts... it hurts so much that every memory feels suffocating."
Dongye Runyi understood her choice.
"Azhi, if... and I'm only speaking hypothetically!" Dongye looked at the purple Jade Pendant on Xia Zhisu's neck, "If you hadn't met Ling Tian'ao, and I happened to find you, would you fulfill the promise you made as a child and agree to marry me?"
Xia Zhisu smiled faintly, "Quanquan, there are no ifs."
Indeed, there are no ifs.
Xia Zhisu had sleeping issues.
