Gu Yuan placed the bouquet she was holding in front of the tombstone and said to the black-and-white photo on the tombstone, "The weather is nice today."
The only response to Gu Yuan ca from the cold tombstone and that black-and-white photo.
Wen Fei, standing beside her, showed no reaction at all, completely like a stranger coldly watching.
Gu Yuan glanced sideways at Wen Fei and reminded her, "You should be talking to Dad now, not just standing here indifferently."
"What’s there to say to a cold tombstone!" Wen Fei replied coldly.
Gu Yuan did not argue with her, rely said, "Whether you loved him or not, he was always your husband."
"No! He stopped being my husband long ago!" Wen Fei’s reaction was heartless: "He’s been dead for sixteen years, long enough for reincarnation. Do you think with this tombstone here, his soul is waiting here too?"
As she spoke, Wen Fei arched her thin eyebrows high, her expression both harsh and unfeeling.
Gu Yuan returned the sa indifference.
Such heartless and cold-blooded words to the extre made Gu Yuan think, if she hadn’t really had such a heartless person by her side, she would have found it hard to believe that soone like Wen Fei could exist in the world.
She was so heartless she seed devoid of a heart, and even if she had one, it was encased in layers of ice too cold to ever thaw.
Suddenly, Gu Yuan smiled slightly and said to Wen Fei, "If you’re going to be this discourteous, you needn’t trouble yourself any longer, just leave. Otherwise, I worry you’ll pollute the air of the entire cetery."
Wen Fei: "..."
After saying this, Gu Yuan turned and left for a few minutes.
No matter what Wen Fei would say, in any case, this was ti to be alone.
While Gu Yuan was away, Wen Fei stood alone in front of the tombstone.
The breeze was gentle, as if caressing her; Wen Fei lifted a hand to adjust the wide brim of her hat, and finally, her gaze landed on the black-and-white photo on the tombstone. She slowly said, "These sixteen years have been long; I’ve grown old, but you remain the sa."
As she spoke, she raised her hand to touch the corners of her eyes, her smile accentuating the fine lines.
"Gu Yuesheng, in these sixteen years, I’ve lived the life I wanted. As long as I didn’t think of you, every mont of my life was joyful. Just imagine how much unhappiness you brought ." Wen Fei let out a soft laugh.
In that soft laugh, there was sarcasm, there was hatred.
As the years went by, the resentnt that had once taken root in her heart never faded.
Gu Yuan stood at a distance, quietly observing this scene. Perhaps at this mont, Wen Fei was cursing Gu Yuesheng, or maybe she was boasting about how well she was living now, or even recounting what types of boyfriends she had dated...
Gu Yuan wouldn’t interfere with anything Wen Fei had to say.
Because she couldn’t interfere.
A few minutes later, Wen Fei turned and walked away, and Gu Yuan didn’t stop her, only said, "Wait for in the car."
Wen Fei walked straight down, "Don’t make wait too long."
After Wen Fei left, Gu Yuan approached the tombstone.
She took a deep breath and said to the person in the black-and-white photo, "The last ti I ca was seven months ago, and I wasn’t in a good state that day when I told you I broke up with Chi Yu."
At this mont, the sky was clear with no clouds, her clothes gently fluttering as Gu Yuan sat down on the steps in front of the tombstone, "I think I’ve already let go..."
"But I can’t lie to you; I want to be true to myself deep down... yet I’m hesitantly cowardly, wondering if I should look for him."
