Chapter 1239: 1239 Heather of the Other Shore Flower (263)
"Actually, it wasn’t long before I knew you were part of the Night Hawk Faction and had so connection with Helena. I secretly investigated you, and that’s when I found out you were sisters. You were just a knife sent by the Night Hawk to stay by my side, stabbing at my heart. But even so, I couldn’t let you go."
"I know you’re soone who has never been in this world, curious about everything. No matter where I took you, you showed infinite curiosity and a sense of novelty, and I knew that was your most real self."
"Back then, your eyes didn’t deceive. Night Hawk might have trained you through experiences, but your world remained as clean as a blank sheet. I vividly rember when you saved an injured kitten, cradling it in your arms like a baby, caring for it until its wounds healed. You don’t know how wonderful you were back then."
"I also rember the first ti you visited the Undersea World, showing the sa wonder as a child. Clearly, you had already dived in the real ocean and seen a more diverse underwater world, yet you still found it delightful. It’s not that you’ve never seen those fish, I know... Your happiness was because you finally lived an ordinary life like a normal person."
"You’ve probably imagined countless tis of being an ordinary person, forgetting your past as Heather. I know there were many nights where you cried, feeling your own insignificance..."
Listening to all this, Heather was already in tears.
How did he... know everything?
How was he able to analyze her psyche so thoroughly?
"Even though I knew everything about you, knew your pain and joy, I always pretended not to. I should have told you earlier so you could rest assured. I considered it but didn’t act in the end. I also know that with my hand, you removed the Night Hawk people around
one by one. You wanted the Night Hawk and his people to completely disappear from our lives and hoped they’d never return, right? So, I wished to fulfill your longing, not letting any Night Hawk people approach you. Wanted you to feel that you were indeed an ordinary person, the Manman I love. I regret not being honest with you about all this."
"But at the sa ti, we must also thank this trial. Your departure made
think a lot, read your letters to
repeatedly, and beca more certain of the kind of life you want. So I earnestly tried to create a truly ordinary world for you and wanted to be with you as Nian Shen."
Heather was already crying uncontrollably, her heart stirred by a mix of emotions—touched and sad, all blended together.
Her tearful eyes looked at him, her voice sowhat hoarse, "Li Sinian... are you foolish? You’re the biggest fool in the world. You deserve soone better; why do you insist on being so good to ?"
She had never called him foolish. When she was still Xiao Man, she always felt their relationship was abnormal, not like a romance but more akin to sothing contractual.
But it turned out, it was only because they never expressed their inner feelings, each harboring different emotions deep within, that led to over five years of wasted ti, precious monts they should have cherished together.
