Gu'er took a long, deep breath. The memory of her past life made her heart ache so terribly it felt like a heart attack. But Gu'er knew she had developed that heart condition later in life; she didn't have it now. The pain was just a subconscious reaction.
Gu'er looked at Liu Yuan. He had come all this way to find her and said he wanted to marry her. It would be a lie to say she wasn't moved at all.
Especially now. She had cut ties with her family, was all alone, and had nothing. Yet, he was still willing to marry her. His intentions were so pure, so genuine.
"I'm sorry, Brother Liu Yuan. I don't want to live in the city."
Gu'er's eyes reddened slightly. The city held too many unhappy memories for her.
Liu Yuan let go of Gu'er's hand. He had said so much, yet Gu'er was still unwilling. 'Saying she didn't want to live in the city is just an excuse. The truth is she already has Sun Jiaming in her heart and looks down on me.'
