Bab 135: Chapter 135: Ultimately Missed

The person she once liked, who still lingered in her thoughts, had expressed such tender feelings. As the woman being confessed to, Qiao Zhiyi was deeply moved but also very uneasy.

As he said, she was already married. Even if there was still affection between them, they couldn't do anything that went against morality.

It was precisely because of this moral constraint that they both dared not take a step further.

Qiao Zhiyi clasped her hands tightly, both reason and emotion pulling at her. She wanted badly to be an immoral person, but she couldn't.
