"Uncle Feng, no, no, I will never forget you," Shangguan You shook her head while speaking rapidly, the tears in her eyes uncontrollably spilling out.
"Girl, Uncle Feng is not capable enough; I won’t be able to rember you all," Zhuge Feng gently stroked Shangguan You’s hair as the tears slid from his eyes. His gaze lingered greedily on Lin ngjie. After tonight, would he really forget Lin ngjie forever? Would he never have any interaction with her again?
"ngjie, you can’t do this; you don’t have the right. You can dislike , you can even forget , but you can’t erase our mories. You can’t do this?" Shangguan Hao looked at Lin ngjie in front of him, truly wanting to cry out. Why did it have to be like this?
If he had known this would be the result, he would rather Lin ngjie never awoke again. Only then would he truly know that Lin ngjie had always been by his side, not this noble yet cruel woman before him.
"Why can’t I?" Lin ngjie said coldly, without a flicker of emotion in her eyes. With a wave of her hands, a powerful surge of Spiritual Energy flooded into Shangguan Hao’s body.
"Let go! I don’t need this useless stuff."
"It may be useless to you now, but not long from now, without these skills, you’ll die a terrible death," Lin ngjie snorted coldly and swept Shangguan Hao aside again.
"Alright. It’s been made clear, and it’s ti to solve this once and for all." Lin ngjie waved her hands. A brilliant array of lights flashed, and every person present felt a surge of Spiritual Energy entering their bodies. Even the Lin Family father and son, who were far away in the Lin Family residence, also felt suddenly at ease.
"Shangguan You, co here," Lin ngjie ordered coldly, her gaze sweeping over Shangguan You.
"What are you trying to do? She is our Shangguan Family’s daughter; I won’t let you take her away," Shangguan Zhi stood in front of Shangguan You, locking eyes with Lin ngjie. Lin ngjie’s gaze was icy; his was unwavering.
"She is my daughter. There’s no need for any of you to rember her," Lin ngjie’s cold words struck everyone’s hearts like a heavy stone.
"ngjie, not only do you want us to forget you forever, but you also want us to forget You? She has lived with us for seventeen years! How can you do this? You’re making us forget you, and we can’t oppose it, but to make us forget her too? You can’t be so cruel, so heartless!"
Imposing mories or erasing them was a trivial matter for Lin ngjie, but for all of them, it was a devastating blow.
"You can’t make us forget You! You can’t do this! She’s our little sister, the little sister we’ve adored for seventeen years! Auntie, you can’t do this!" Shangguan Qing stood in front of Shangguan You, looking at Lin ngjie before him.
"That’s right, she’s our sister. You can make us all forget Lin ngjie’s existence, but Auntie, you can’t make us forget You!" Lin Wenjie also stood in front of Shangguan You.
"Sister Lin, Sister You is my lifesaver! I don’t want to forget Sister You! I don’t want to!" Qi Zhuochen said loudly, tears streaming down his face as he spoke.
"ngjie, You is also my daughter. I still rember what you said all those years ago; I have always treated her as my own child. Now that you have recovered, you want to treat us with such cruelty?" Liu Ruoling spoke, her face full of sorrow.
"She is your daughter, but she is also my daughter, and I won’t allow it."
"You are a Guardian; you have your responsibilities. But Shangguan You is *our* Shangguan You, all of ours! You have no right, nor can you make us forget her existence!" Ye Ershao stood coldly in front of everyone, locking gazes with Lin ngjie.
Seeing them stand one after another in front of her, protecting their family, Shangguan You felt a deeper sting in her eyes. Looking at the stunningly beautiful Lin ngjie in the center, Shangguan You’s words resounded, word by word, in everyone’s ears.
"Although you are Lin ngjie, and although you are my mommy, you can’t make decisions for . I am the daughter of the Shangguan Family, and I always will be. I don’t want to follow you. I don’t want to beco a re Guardian. Nor do I want Daddy, Grandpa, Uncle, Auntie, Grandfather, Uncle, Brother Wenjie, Brother Hao, Brother Qing, and Uncle Feng to forget . I don’t want that! I will always be Shangguan You," Shangguan You said calmly, looking at Lin ngjie.
"I have my own life; I don’t want to be your pawn or anyone else’s. I have my own friends, my own family, and people I want to protect. You can continue choosing to be a Guardian; you can abandon your daughter. You can let go of Daddy, Uncle Feng, your father, and your brother, but I am not you. What you don’t want, I cherish. Regarding the things you don’t want to do, no one can force you—no one at all. But even you cannot force . You have the power to make everyone forget you, but you can’t choose for . Nor can you make them forget ."
Snowflakes drifted down heavily, blanketing the ground. As ti ticked by, the night deepened, and the air grew colder.
The Shangguan Family, the Lin Family brothers, the Qi Family grandfather and grandson, and even Ye Ershao stood amidst the snowstorm, watching the indifferent Lin ngjie and the light surrounding her. Though she was breathtakingly beautiful, this version of Lin ngjie felt alien and even frightening to everyone. They feared the power she held and the actions she was about to take.
Shangguan You’s clear words entered everyone’s ears, word by word, easing the tension for those who had been nervous. They then turned to watch Lin ngjie anxiously.
"Shangguan You, you are my daughter. Your existence is not about having these dispensable familial bonds," Lin ngjie’s voice, colder than a winter storm, once again reached everyone’s ears. She had told them everything because she intended to erase herself from everyone’s mory. Then, no one would recognize or rember her anymore. She and Shangguan You would rely beco passersby in their lives.
