Although he always caused her pain, he was also her only light and hope; she had given him the chance to hurt her because she wholeheartedly wanted to like him. A moth doesn't seek the flame without expecting destruction.
But at this moment, Sheng Qianxia was engulfed by fear when she realized that she might truly lose him forever.
A blanket of fear swept through her, and she palpably felt her body tremble, not just from the craving stimulated by the drugs, but also from a deep inner panic...
In a daze, she remembered what Gong Beiyao had said.
He had said, "As long as I'm willing, I can find you no matter where you are."
He had said, "Knowing you're in trouble, how could I possibly not save you?"
He had said, "Whenever you're in trouble, contact me first! I've told you I'll keep my phone on twenty-four hours a day for you."
This was a man's promise to a woman.
