His lips no longer touched her lips, but the empty air.
Her body lying in his arms, dissipated.
Wake slowly opened his eyes, they were dull and dazed.
He held her in his arms, motionless, even after her limbs had all dissolved into sandy ashes from having her life taken away from her.
As the water flowed, the ashes began to drift away.
Wake hurriedly reached out, screaming as he clutched at them.
What was being shouted couldn’t even be deciphered, just deranged bloody sobs.
Heart breaking, lung tearing pain.
The merfolk’s singing voice became tragically painful at this point.
The ashes in his fingers had floated away, he couldn’t keep her.
She always lied to him, she said the secret of the Merfolks’ Heart was just to test love.
Liars, humans were liars.
Wake grasped what little remained of her body’s ashes in a death grip, he held it hysterically.
“You lied to me, you kept lying to me.”
Red blood and tears flowed from his eyes.
Blood and tears became pearls, falling down one by one.

When Bai Weiwei woke up, her whole person was somewhat faint.
She had never once woken up so tired and powerless.
Sitting in his hospital bed, staring dully at the white walls, she suddenly said, “What do you think of Wake?”
She died, and didn’t know how miserable that mentally retarded fish was.
The system hesitated, “Uh, maybe, probably, after crying he went to find a new love. After all, your face was ugly and flat, and you had no tail. He might have already abandoned you this first love, and found another merfolk with forward and backward curves for a wife.”
Bai Weiwei was silent for a while, only to breathe a sigh of relief, and say: “Like that, ah.”
The system immediately nodded, “Just like that. How could there be a life and death love? He would be sad for a while, and when that passes, then move on to his own good life.”
Without the emotional shielding, the system was scared to death of emotional side effects.
Bai Weiwei thought it over, and nodded very naturally, “That’s good.”
The system breathed a sigh of relief, no issues, just fine.
Suddenly, there were three restrained knocks at the door, followed by a momentary pause.
When no one answered, the door opened.
Bai Weiwei looked up to see Ye Yuxuan come in.
His slender body was well dressed in a nice black suit, his short hair was shiny and clean, and his beautiful black eyes were deep and calm.
He lifted his eyes and saw Bai Weiwei sitting on the bed.
She stared at him dazedly, her legs hanging off the bed, with beautiful ankles so fragile that they could be broken by a pinch.
Ye Yuxuan’s eyes flashed with forbearance. He walked over, and carefully reached out, just about to hold her.
But, Bai Weiwei seemed to have only just seen him, she suddenly reached out to hug his lean waist, the side of her face attached to his suit.
Ye Yuxuan stiffened, he didn’t dare to move.
She didn’t speak, she just quietly held him.
Her weak arms and clean face, embraced him tightly with all her strength.
Ye Yuxuan’s pulse began to accelerate, even his breathing rhythm distorted.
Bai Weiwei didn’t know what was wrong with her, for the first time she woke up very tired.
Frighteningly tired.
Even at a loss. She couldn’t be like before, waking up and forgetting the intense images of the previous plane.
Instead, she kept thinking back to Wake’s final expression.
He gave her a kiss, and when she finally closed her eyes, he still had an appearance that showed he didn’t know anything.
Was this the side effect of not using the emotional shielding?
Bai Weiwei suddenly realized that the emotional shield was more than just an ox strength plugin, human beings couldn’t separate their feelings multiple times to attack different people.
If she woke up like this every time, she couldn’t persist through more than a few planes before she went crazy.
Bai Weiwei suddenly whispered: “I’m sorry, I’ll pay for your clothes.”
With that, she burst into tears.
She wept quietly, without a word. Her expression was incomparably flat, her overflowing eyes were clear to the bottom.
No excitement, no sadness, no pain.
Just plain tears.
She also didn’t know why she wanted to cry when she saw Ye Yuxuan come in.
She always felt he was very familiar.
