Shao He set down her chopsticks, her face clouded with deep melancholy. In the relationship between her and Pei Huaian, all the difficulties were being shouldered by him alone, and the grievances and pressures he endured were unimaginable to her.
"Miss, are you alright?" Qingxia, seeing that she was not eating and kept sighing, asked.
"Let's call it off," Shao He waved her hand and stood up to walk outside. She always felt that she should do something for Pei Huaian, rather than let him make all the sacrifices silently.
She went under a large tree and stared blankly at the courtyard next door, reminiscing about her moments with Pei Huaian.
They had met at the Mass Burial Mound, and later on, she treated his leg. Whenever there was trouble, he always protected her.
The moon hung high in the sky, with Pei Huaian being the other person also admiring the moon.
