Chapter 1258: Yeming, It Hurts
“Let me be honest, I can’t forget you. I’ll never be able to forget you. I love you and will keep loving you in the future. No one is ever going to remove you from my memories and my heart. You already live in my heart.
“All these years, I used to have nightmares that you would leave me and not want me anymore. Elder Sis… Do you really not want me anymore?”
A sheen of tears appeared over Tang Mo’er’s bright eyes and she lifted her eyes to look at the man in front of her.
Having such a heartfelt thing said to her, who wouldn’t be moved?
Of course she would be moved, to be so deeply loved by someone.
But she couldn’t accept it.
Because she wouldn’t be able to respond to his feelings at all.
He had his own life as well.
Tang Mo’er pressed her red lips together before saying the cruelest thing she could think of, “I’m sorry, I can’t accept your love. Let’s never meet again. I don’t ever want to see you again.”
Let’s never meet again.
I don’t want to see you again.
Lu Yeming felt as though he was being ripped apart. As the pain hit him suddenly, his eyes turned bloodshot and a heavy, oppressive devastation seemed to smash through his entire being.
Mo’er…
She was the only one who fulfilled his life.
She was the only color in his life.
He didn’t want to be abandoned.
He couldn’t take it if she left him.
Tang Mo’er tried to close the door again. But Lu Yeming’s foot didn’t budge and he held the door open stubbornly.
Tang Mo’er suddenly recalled the distant boy from all those years ago. Back then, he had been so lonely. She had invaded his heart, and as her mom had said, become the demon in his heart
She released the doorknob and turned to leave.
But before she could, a hand reached over to grab her delicate wrist.
She wanted to leave.
But he refused to go.
She never looked back, but hot tears rolled down her cheeks. In an instant, her face was soaked with tears.
He held her hand stubbornly, refusing to budge at all. His elegant facade slipped away as he was swallowed by weakness and loneliness. His long fingers tugged on her hand slightly. His touch was wistful and helpless.
Lu Yeming, who had become so famous at a young age, was now standing there with bloodshot eyes. His voice was careful and pleading as he said, “Elder Sis, please don’t abandon me, alright?”
Tang Mo’er raised her eyes a few more times, wanting to stop her tears from flowing. But this was to no avail, as hot tears continued streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably like pearls falling from a broken string.
She refused to turn around, only looked at his hand clutching hers tightly and said, “Yeming… it… hurts…”
She said that she was hurting.
But where?
Lu Yeming’s heart felt like it was being ripped apart.
He couldn’t bear to hurt her.
He couldn’t even stand her even getting hurt a little.
Taking advantage of this, Tang Mo’er shut the door.
…
Looking at the tightly shut door, Lu Yeming slowly lowered his bloodshot eyes. His tall body bent over as a self-deprecating laugh escaped his lips.
He knew that he had been abandoned.
She didn’t want him anymore.
After standing there for a long time, he turned and walked downstairs. Fan Men took in this scene. In all the years he had been with Master, this was the first time he had seen him so devastated.
Master loved Miss Jun as well, but all Elder Miss did was bring Master… pain.
…
In the apartment.
Tang Mo’er leaned against the door weakly. There was a metallic taste on her tongue as she pressed her hands against her mouth. Deep crimson blood stained her pale hands.
She had vomited blood.
She knew her body best and knew that her life was coming to an end.
At this moment, the doorbell rang. A soothing voice floated in from the outside. “Elder Sister Mo’er.”
It was Qingqing.
Tang Mo’er took out a few pieces of tissue to wipe the blood from her mouth before she opened the door.
“Elder Sister Mo’er.” Jun Xiqing walked in and held her small hands.
Tang Mo’er’s eyes were red. She looked like she had been crying for a long time. Jun Xiqing looked at her pale face worriedly.
Shaking her head, Tang Mo’er only held Jun Xiqing’s hands back. “Qingqing, Yeming must be extremely upset right now. He is a very lonely person, so please don’t let him be alone in the future. Please be by his side.”
Jun Xiqing’s watery eyes were sad as well. How could she remain by his side? She was going to leave soon. She had to.
“Elder Sister Mo’er, it’s no use even if I stay by his side. You’re the one he wants by his side. After the 20 years you spent together, there is no one who can replace you in his heart.
“As long as you’re by his side, he’ll act like an ordinary person. He’ll have a few girls he likes and give birth to children. He’ll laugh, and he’ll be warm and happy. He’ll have a good life… But if you’re not by his side, nothing matters to him anymore. His personality has always been cold, so no one knows what will happen to him.
“Elder Sister Mo’er, I wonder sometimes if I should never have exposed him. He wasn’t wrong in loving you. His love for you took root and blossomed in his heart and grew vines all over as time passed. How cruel would it be if you left him?” Jun Xiqing said in a low voice.
Tang Mo’er’s pale lips curved upwards and she said, “It’s precisely because of this that I have to push him away, don’t you think? He shouldn’t put himself in danger anymore because of me. He should take up the Murong name and rule over the world. He has always protected me, but as his sister, there should come a day when I protect him, right?”
“Elder Sister Mo’er…”
Tang Mo’er interrupted her gently. “I can’t be by his side anymore. There’s no such thing as the Red Spider Lily in this world.”
What?
Jun Xiqing’s pupils contracted. She turned her face to look at the Red Spider Lily on the study table. The bright red of the flower was already ebbing.
Tang Mo’er squeezed Jun Xiqing’s small hands tightly. “Qingqing, if the day that I can’t be by Yeming’s side finally comes, you have to stay by his side. How can love from his youth be stronger than love that he found by himself after that? You should find your way into his heart when he is at his weakest. He is someone who obsesses over love, so once he falls in love with you, even if he has his regrets, he’ll be able to live a good life. Can you do that, Qingqing?”
Jun Xiqing’s heart skipped a beat.
…
On the ground floor of the apartment.
Lu Yeming hadn’t left yet. A limousine was parked beside the vibrant street, cold light glinting off it as it stopped there like an emperor. Lu Yeming leaned on the car lazily with both hands in his pocket as a cold breeze ruffled his fringe. He attracted many gazes as he stood there, the very picture of elegance.
At this moment, two bright lights shone over as a Rolls Royce pulled over.
The car door opened as a tall figure got out. It was Gu Mohan.
Gu Mohan was in a black coat and a black suit under it. There were silver tassels on his suit, and they gleamed brightly. He had just come from an important business meeting and walked calmly over to Yeming.
“Yeming, you came over as well?” He stopped in front of Lu Yeming.
As if seeing him for the first time, Lu Yemingraised his eyes to look at Gu Mohan.
When Gu Mohan looked at his bloodshot eyes, those eyes he saw exuded an excruciating sense of pain.
