Footsteps.

Chanel closed her eyes and said, "Mu Xicheng, you don't have to avoid me anymore."

Mu Xicheng held the milk cup in his hand: "After drinking this cup of milk, I will send a car to take you back."

Chanel suddenly opened her eyes and saw Mu Xicheng's lonely eyes. She shook her head and said, "Go back to where? To Su Shijie's side? No need."

"Why?"

"Mu Xicheng, it is my decision now to return to you, and I will not change it again. I have... broken up with Su Shijie."

"Idiot, do you think I won't help find an antidote when you return to him? Xia Nai, do you think that's how you look at me?"

"I'm not... I just don't want to leave after using you again and again."

"Being able to use me proves that I still need to exist in your world... Xia Nai, my existence is just needed by you. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, think of me and let me help... I am alive and have

It has a new meaning." Mu Xicheng smiled lightly, "It is the meaning of my existence for you."

Chanel's heart tightened.

"You are right. With freedom, I will no longer seek death and survival."

Mu Xicheng handed her the milk cup and stared closely at her long black hair scattered on the snow-white pillow: "I will no longer be such a weak man, unable to give you anything."

"Mu Xicheng..."

"Drink milk."

She took the milk cup, clenched it tightly and said, "I have never thought you were weak. I know how hard it is to be a forced puppet like this. I will not look down on you at all. On the contrary, I appreciate your ability."

Have the courage to go till today..."

Having been manipulated since childhood, Mu Xicheng must have endured it to the limit.

Mu Xicheng's eyes moved slightly, and he smiled brightly: "Xia Nai, you are comforting me."

Even he himself looked down upon himself.

She didn't even dare to live, and it put such heavy pressure on Shanel that she almost lost her legs!

"No, I really understand you now..." Shanel murmured, looking across Mu Xicheng into the distance.

Because now she has lost the courage to live.

She is alive now, and her only goal is to atone for her sins... If Mu Xicheng doesn't want her anymore and Su Shijie's illness is cured, she wants to leave this world where pain manipulates her.

Now Mu Xicheng is her life-saving straw.

On the other hand, she has always been the straw that saved Mu Xicheng from drowning, supporting his courage to fight against adversity.

"Hey Mu Xicheng," Chanel took a deep breath, "Let's just pretend that nothing happened and be together like before...?"

Mu Xicheng suddenly held his breath and breathed very close, staring at her silently with his glazed eyes.

This was such a tempting invitation to him.

"Forget it, Xia Nai," he heard his own voice say, "I can't go back."

Chanel's tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

Mu Xicheng's hand gently covered her head and stroked her gently: "I have been waiting for you in my memories, waiting for you to come back to me. Now it's too late."

Chanel stared at him deeply with tears in her eyes: "Why is it too late now?"

"You have given your heart to another man."

Even if she stayed with him, she would be a walking zombie all her life.
