章節 152: Fool until the end

"We are both greedy for acknowledgement." Huang Qiuyan takes a step toward her. "Li Dai Yu, you don't want to leave Fu Sheng. You have the same fears that I have. You want to become stronger because you want to be with him. You want to break the bond because you don't want him to die along with you."

"Stop saying nonsense." Li Dai Yu moves away from her. "I am not like you."

She won't admit it. Huang Qiuyan sighs. "Then, tell me how we are different."

"I fight for what I want." Li Dai Yu snarls. "You are alive because of me. You couldn't fight Ian when he molested you."

"Did I not fight?" Huang Qiuyan smiles. "I endured as long as I could because I wanted to wait for Fu Sheng. That was my way of fighting back. I was able to endure because I knew that he would come back for me."

"He didn't come back in time." Li Dai Yu whispers. The sadness in her eyes contrasts the calmness in Huang Qiuyan's eyes. "He chose Fu Mian and his duty over you."
