"Xixi," Lu Yebai whispered, "I can't sleep if you don't come home for a night. What should I do in the future..."
Meng Xi'er rubbed her nose, feeling sour-hearted, "I'll sleep with you in the future, you won't have trouble sleeping."
"Really? Then we have a deal, you can't back out."
Meng Xi'er bit her lip, staring at the ceiling as tears slowly rolled down her cheeks.
She wanted to say it was true, but she just couldn't bring herself to agree.
Pretend nothing happened, know nothing, and mindlessly continue on with Lu Yebai?
Could her deceased parents ever forgive her?
She could forgive Lu Yebai, but could she truly stand in for her parents and forgive him too?
If her parents were still alive, could they... accept her being with him?
They died because of her, could she just nonchalantly continue on with Lu Yebai?
Carrying all this, how could she alone be happy?
"Yebai, I'm feeling a bit sleepy," Meng Xi'er said as she rubbed her eyes softly.
