Bab 167: Bitter

"Yan Yan."

Liwei finally stood tall in front of Li Xiqing and Shao Yan.

Shao Yan had thought of this moment many times in her life. What would she do if Liwei is finally standing in front of her? What would be the first word to say? How would her expression be? Who would be with her?

Shao Yan thought she would not be able to say anything because she is still too hurt and too angry. She thought that she would lash out at him and curse him.

But surprisingly, her heart did not feel any of that. Bitter, yes, but no more anger left.

Shao Yan slowly stepped out of Li Xiqing's shadow. She felt that this man, who was holding her hand firmly, had lend out a courage to face her past and to reconcile with her pain. His relentlessness in conquering her heart had been very fruitful. And now, her heart did not feel empty or alone anymore.
