Chapter 321: You say it, I will do it

Hong Liu had never seen him like this, he looked like a helpless child. The knife that just murdered her hope was now had started to twist its way to her spirit, seeing him like this is unbearable. She blinked away her tears, sliding beside him. She sat, hugged his arms and rested her chin. But giving up has never been in her nature.

"We knew, finding the answer was nearly impossible," She rubbed his arms reassuringly trying to keep the hoarseness out of her voice. Dong Hai met her eyes, frowning and he closed his eyes again, struggling.

"It is fine, we have tried," She whispered. Dong Hai shook his head, letting out a sigh and he turned his eyes to look straight away from her.

Hong Liu wrapped her arms around him, fisting her hand in his robe, imploring him silently to look at him.

"I am fine with it," She said, she made peace with it a long time ago. He looked into her eyes, shock evident in his.

"Is it easy like this?" He asked.
