His face was tense as iron, "So? What are you planning to do?"
She lowered her head, picking at her nails. Some words would hurt even to say...
"Xiao Xu, do you think I'm just a child? Where did I get the strength to grow up so strong? It's just because I am good at discarding and forgetting. I've already carried too much in my life; I can only discard what I can't conquer, things that hurt me, and move forward lightly. Actually, I'm not only afraid of death but also of suffering because I can't bear more pain. I'm really not as strong as you think. At my core, I'm a coward, a coward who wants to escape when facing difficulties. My mom once opposed us being together because she wanted me to live happily and easily, without facing too much. But I didn't listen to her. Looking back now, it's something beyond regret that can't be mended. It's not just that I'm unhappy..."
"So, you mean to discard me?" His throat tightened, and each word came out stiff.
