Zhiyuan shook his head. "It's not your fault, Xinyi. Stop blaming yourself for doing nothing. Instead of drowning in despair over Caihong's loss, I should have moved forward and-"
"It's not easy, Zhiyuan," Xinyi sadly smiled. "I said, right? Had I been in your place, I wouldn't have been able to give up on you either. It's the same with Shuang, who couldn't move past her feelings from Xiaosi even though Yunru was right beside her for all these years. Zizi is there with him now, but I can see that he has been hesitating too. Sometimes love makes us strong, but sometimes...it also makes us helpless that keeps on binding us in the past. And I did nothing to break that connection."
Zhiyuan pursed his lips and seemed to be frustrated. "No matter what you say, it seems ridiculous to me. If you accuse yourself one more time, then I would stop talking to you!"
