"I don't know what to do, really." Wu Qian Qian said in a low voice, "You love someone at all costs, but you love someone else at all costs … This is an unsolvable situation. But, the final result won't be perfect if you force her to carry out the engagement. Maybe two people will suffer for the rest of their lives. Maybe three people will suffer for the rest of their lives. But, you may be the only one who will suffer if you let her go. "
"You have already sacrificed everything for the sake of the person you love. So, what's the harm in sacrificing a little more …" Wu Qian Qian said, "… You have to let go for the sake of the person you love even if it's unfair … even if it's uncomfortable. Just for the sake of the person you love! "
She raised her head and looked at the red-clothed man. She said, "This is the opinion of this junior. Senior, please don't laugh at me. I don't know if this junior's answer will satisfy you or dissatisfy you? "
The red-clothed man let out a long sigh and was silent for a long time. Then, he slowly turned around so that the other four couldn't see the expression on his face. He murmured as if he was sighing, "Pass!"
Chu Yang and the other three people didn't feel happy when they heard this' pass'. Instead, they felt very uncomfortable in their hearts.
They thought of the bitterness that Wu Qian Qian had suffered in secret. They thought of the despair and helplessness that the red-clothed man had felt when he was forced to let go of his own accord …
Everyone felt an indescribable sadness in their hearts. It took a long time for them to calm down. They didn't feel the joy and pleasure of passing the test.
The red door that had been closed all this time suddenly opened, revealing a shining path. It zigzagged into the distance.
The red-clothed man's back was still facing them. He didn't turn his head. But, his figure was slowly fading. Gradually, it became faintly discernible.
The four people silently walked on that path. They walked a few steps. Then, Chu Yang finally turned his head and asked, "Senior, may I ask … what did you choose at that time?"
This was undoubtedly a question that the four people had in common. They wouldn't forget this question for the rest of their lives if they didn't ask it now.
The man in red said in a low voice, "From the beginning to the end, she has never treated me badly. "From the beginning to the end, Soo Soo has always believed that being with me is the most relaxing, the most relaxing and the most comfortable time. Moreover, it is also the time when she does not need to worry about anything. Thus, from the beginning to the end, she has always regarded me as her father, or as her biological brother … But she has never thought of me as her lover. That is all."
His silhouette became fainter and fainter. It was almost impossible to see him clearly. His entire silhouette floated up in a trance. His voice was almost inaudible, "In the end … I had a little sister. But, she was also lonely for the rest of her life … Since that day, I haven't seen her … even once."
"I didn't let her know about any of the things I did. If she chooses me, perhaps I will let her know what I have sacrificed, let her understand my feelings for her … to deepen our relationship. But since she didn't choose me, I don't want her to know what I've done. That would be too heavy a burden for her. "
"I don't want her to be burdened so heavily … She is happy."
The last sentence was followed by a soft chuckle. It was as thin as gossamer, "Haha … when love reaches the depths … no complaints …"
The voice was still lingering here. But, the man in red's silhouette resolutely turned into mist and disappeared in a flash.
However, the desolation and deep affection in his last few words turned into a thick melancholy, lingering in the world for a long time.
Everyone sighed, and their hearts became even heavier.
In the end, he had a little sister.
A little sister … How could there be a little sister? It must be that he had helped his beloved to break off their engagement and recognized her as his little sister. Thus, he had cut off his infatuation.
More importantly, he had let his beloved let go of the shackles of her heart. She could chase after the happiness she wanted wholeheartedly and live a happy life.
What about himself?
When love reaches the depths, no complaints … Could he really have no complaints?
If it was true, how could he not see her for his entire life? How could he die alone?
For a woman, from youth to old age, who knows how many years he had to spend.
Congenitally deficient, I changed!
I spent all my wealth just to follow your footsteps. I wanted to catch up with your footsteps.
I extracted all the bones in my body and replaced them all. Just to chase after your standards …
I extracted all the blood in my body and replaced them all, just to be able to match your excellence …
I broke all the meridians in my body and reconnected them, just to be able to be with you openly.
Your heart is not with me. You are going to marry someone else.
When I saw your happiness and pleading, your hope and guilt, I felt that I shouldn't and couldn't destroy your happiness.
The moment you begged me, the moment you begged me, my world collapsed and ceased to exist.
My heart was breaking, my feelings were disintegrating, my will was collapsing, but I still had to tell you with a smile, "Silly girl, actually, I have always treated you as a younger sister …"
Then, I swallowed all my bitterness, all my difficulties, all my pain, without letting anyone know.
From then on, I had a younger sister.
From then on, I would be alone for the rest of my life.
From then on, I would roam the world.
From then on … I would never see you again.
Because seeing you would make you sad.
Because seeing you would make your other half overthink. Sooner or later, he would be able to see my feelings for you. That would inevitably cause misunderstandings and estrangement between the two of you.
More so, as long as I see you … I might never bear to leave again …
What kind of feelings were these?
"Chu Yang, if it were you … What would you choose?" Tie Butian turned and looked at Chu Yang seriously.
Chu Yang laughed bitterly. "I don't know, I really don't know! I also asked myself this question just now. But in the end, I really don't know what kind of choice I would make. "
Mo Qingwu hugged Chu Yang's arm and whispered, "I don't know either."
Tie Butian shook her head and smiled bitterly.
Everyone here was obviously crazy.
Those who said they didn't know, basically, would choose the same way as this red-robed man if they really encountered the same situation.
How could they put him (her) in a difficult position if they loved him (her) deeply?
Since he (her) didn't put him (her) in a difficult position, then they could only pay the price by suffering alone.
Perhaps Wu Qianqian and herself were blissful on this point.
Because this was a society where men and women were unequal after all. Years of war, the huge disparity in the ratio of men and women created this inequality.
Fortunately, with this inequality, she didn't have to live a miserable life and die alone!
But … if … if there came a day when this situation improved and the ratio of men and women returned to normal, what would happen? When that time came, wouldn't there be even more crazy men and resentful women?
But with the current situation, would there be fewer crazy men and resentful women? This was a heavy topic that no one in the world could truly explain and solve since ancient times!
It was love!
Perhaps in the future, many years in the future, it would still be an unsolvable problem!
Tie Butian shook her head and smiled bitterly. She stopped herself from letting her imagination run wild. Because no matter what, there was absolutely no standard answer to this question. What was right and proper in one's heart might not be so in the eyes of others.
Who could say for sure?
The four of them strolled slowly on that winding path. They didn't use any cultivation to speed up, just like ordinary people, taking a stroll after dinner. They walked like this for a long time.
The story of the red-robed man Lie Huo made the four of them feel very depressed and very heavy.
But it also seemed to have unraveled something …
"Is he really called Lie Huo?" Mo Qingwu asked thoughtfully.
"Silly." Chu Yang rubbed Mo Qingwu's hair lovingly. "The name Yu Xiuxiu … may be his real name, but Lie Huo or whatever, is definitely a fake name."
Wu Qian Qian sighed softly and said, "He's only saying … that in his entire life, from the beginning to the end, it was the feeling of placing his own body on top of a raging fire … that's why he wore red clothes and was named Lie Huo … that's a painful memory that can never be erased …"
"Could it be that Yu Xiuxiu, whom he loved deeply, really believed that he only had feelings for her as a brother? And then didn't care about it anymore? Lying to others and herself? "Mo Qingwu frowned, somewhat indignant." This woman is too heartless. "
Wu Qianqian smiled bitterly. "Silly sister, if you had a fiancé when you were young, and he still loved you deeply, but when you grew up and liked Chu Yang, at this time, your fiancé said that he had always treated you as a sister … Even if you knew that this was a lie, would you expose it? Would you give up Chu Yang and be with him because of his thoughtfulness, because he had always been giving up without any complaints? "
Mo Qingwu shook her head resolutely. "Of course not …" She suddenly realized.
"Then it's settled. People have the same heart, the same reason, everything is like this …" Wu Qianqian smiled bitterly. "Since you can't give him what he wants, then what can you give him? If you really expose this warm lie, you will face an embarrassing situation where both sides want to die. Or we will no longer be friends, but enemies. "
"Pretending to be confused at this time is the most appropriate choice. Even if outsiders think that you are heartless, you can only do so. That's because this is the best way to understand each other. It's also the best way to protect and respect each other. The other party has already done too much for you. So, what's a little bit of grievance to you if you bear the infamy of being heartless? "Wu Qian Qian heaved a long sigh.
"Although it is so bitter."
"The most difficult thing in the world … is this kind of love that you have to let go of but can't bear to."
