Don’t want to go back?
Ha! Most of it has to be because of that man isn’t it?
Oh Qing Qing dear, don’t you know? The more you care about something, the more I want to…..
Destroy it.
Matters here on this side look like they were about to come to an end. Meanwhile, in a place that no one knew about, it was not known how long the two people Qing Lan Fei and Mo Jing Yu had walked, over the endless snowy ground.
Qing Lan Fei’s sight, had gone from seeing a fuzzy blur in the beginning to become completely blind now, and could do nothing but to follow Mo Jing Yu’s lead.
She knew….. that things cannot be left to go on like this. Maybe, in just a short period, Mo Jing Yu might become just like her, unable to see anything at all. This was afterall a common after effect for someone who spent too long a period of time over snowy lands.
Mo Jing Yu had been holding Qing Lan Fei tightly and had not let go even once. All of a sudden, he halted in his footsteps.
Qing Lan Fei came to a stop as well. As she could not see, she did not know what had happened and so she opened her mouth to ask puzzedly: “What’s wrong? Is the way in front impassable?”
Mo Jing Yu stared before them, his gaze unwavering. A moment later, he then said slowly: “It’s not that the way is impassable. It’s just that we’ve already been walking on this route for two days at least but I still can’t see it where it ends.”
“And, ever since I stepped into this place, I have not seen night descend.”
Mo Jing Yu’s hand that held hers tightened slightly. For some unknown reason, even he had begun to become unsure.
Will they be able to walk out from this place at all?
It didn’t matter that much to him, as he would be able to take another ten days or even a fortnight of this with not much problems. But Fei’ Ers eyes….. if they were not treated in time, she might…..
Mo Jing Yu lowered his eyes and looked down, his fingers coming up to gently caress the woman’s smooth tender cheek. His voice was soft and gentle as he started to say: “Fei Er, if we are unable to find our way out, we might come to lose our lives here. Tell me, do you have any regrets?”
The look on Qing Lan Fei’s face was slightly taken aback. She was unable to see the expression on the man’s face and no emotion could be detected from his voice, which sounded flat and monotonous.
She had no way of knowing whether it was because of the low temperature that permeated the air around, but the man’s hand against her cheek carried a cold chilly tinge, which might possibly be a reflection of his mood right at that moment, with no hope in sight, his heart cold with despair.
Qing Lan Fei reached out and gently clasped it over the man’s hand holding her cheek, before she squeezed it lightly.
“Jing Yu, you might even call me selfish. Because I wanted to save you back then, I could even give up the lives of the two children in my tummy. At that time, I felt as if the sky would fall if I lost you, so I chose to give up everything else, but just wanted you to live.”
