    The silent confrontation continued, but it didn’t last long.

    The two pairs of eyes were staring at the person in front of them, as if unwilling to admit defeat, and also as if they wanted to see through the other person completely.

    “I’m sorry.”

    In the end, Chi Yu gave in first, just because he saw Xue Xue’s clean apricot eyes glowing with water, and there were a few strands of blood floating on the white eyeballs, which was inexplicably dazzling.

    Xue Xue didn’t expect the man to say these three words so easily.

    she mused.

    “I’m sorry.”

    Seeing that Xue Xue didn’t respond, Chi Yu said it again.

    The tall man with delicate eyebrows lowered his eyelids and drooped his head. He felt a little aggrieved for no reason, which made Xue Xue feel a little dazed. He thought the person standing in front of him was a big dog that was depressed just because he made a mistake and made his owner angry.

    She thought she should forgive the other person.

    Xue Xue thought so, but the words that came to her mouth were different.”Chi Yu, do you know that you are going too far?”

    Xue Xue just caught a cold, and her throat was still a little uncomfortable. Her voice was a little lower than usual, soft and waxy, and she seemed to be coquettish even if it was mixed with anger.

    Upon hearing this, Chi Yu lowered his head.

    “You asked me yourself. I told you the truth and you said some nonsense to make me angry. Do you think you are not going too far?” Xue Xue sniffed.”Or do you just like me to lie to you and tell you lies?”

    “No!”

    Chi Yu suddenly raised his head when he heard what Xue Xue said.

    He took a step forward, and Xue Xue took a step back.

    The two stood still again, separated by the same distance as before.

    “Xue Xue…”

    “Chi Yu, do you really know that you are wrong?”

    Chi Yu’s face turned pale and his thin lips were pursed tightly.

    “You can’t always keep things in your mind without talking about them. In the end, they will only drag you with them to rot, you know?” Xue Xue said, reaching out and tapping the man’s chest with his finger.”You don’t want to tell me what you have experienced in the past, and I don’t want to force you. Unless you are willing, it will be useless for anyone to explain it. But Ayu, you are my man, and I can’t just watch you be defeated by your own inner demons.”

    Xue Xue changed his tone as if he was a different person.

    Chi Yu stared blankly at the woman’s green-white fingertips, which were neatly trimmed in moonlight, and the pink nails were dotted with shining star totems.

    But soon his thoughts came back, and his nerves became tense. Just because of the woman’s next words, all his remaining sanity was blown away.

    “Falling in love shouldn’t be like this.” Xue Xue paused.”If love is like this, it’s better not to talk about it.”

    As soon as Xue Xue finished the last word, Chi Yu pinched his wrist.

    The man exerted all his strength, possessing the power to crush everything.

    “A Yu, are you angry with shame?” Xue Xue’s expression did not change. Even if she felt very painful, she tried to control the expression on her face.”Because you know it well, right? You clearly know what is missing between us, but you are unwilling to face it or admit it.”

    Chi Yu’s expression turned extremely terrifying for a moment.

    Xue Xue even suspected that he might have his hand twisted off by a man in an instant. As long as Chi Yu thought so, he would definitely do it.

    “A Yu… look at what you are doing now.”

    Xue Xue’s voice trembled, and her eyes gradually turned red from the pain.

    This is a natural physiological reaction.

    Chi Yu moved his gaze downwards stiffly, and then quickly let go of Xue Xue’s wrist as if he was suddenly pricked with a needle. However, a red mark appeared on the fair skin.

    Like a mark.

    The mark of his violence.

    Chi Yu’s breathing suddenly became rapid.

    Some scenes emerged in his mind, scenes that had been played out repeatedly in his childhood and adolescence. Chi Yu, who had experienced these scenes again and again, felt deep-rooted fear and disgust in his bones, which made him roar suddenly.

    “Ah!”

    Even though Xue Xue was mentally prepared, Chi Yu’s desperate and embarrassed look like a struggling trapped animal still stunned her.

    The man’s unexpected behavior made Xue Xue unsure of how to respond.

    So she watched helplessly as Chi Yu hugged her head, staggered and squatted down, curling up with his trembling body.

    This posture…

    Before his mind started to work, Xue Xue had already taken a step forward and hugged the man.

    “It’s okay, be good, it’s all over.” Xue Xue’s hand gently patted the man’s back, as if coaxing a child, patiently, gently and tolerantly.”I’m here to stay with you, A-Yu. The bad things are over. Just open your eyes and take a look, okay?”

    Xue Xue didn’t know what Chi Yu was thinking about. Even through the loose sweater, Xue Xue could still clearly feel the man’s bulging muscles and the sweat rushing up from the pores.

    Xue Xue’s eyes darkened.

    As time passed, the man remained motionless. Xue Xue did not comfort the other person with words, but hummed a song softly.

    It wasn’t pop music, but a nursery rhyme, a tune that she forgot its name and where she heard it, but she would use it to adjust her mood when she was in a bad mood.

    The rhythm is brisk and the melody is very simple.

    Gradually, Chi Yu’s trembling like convulsions stopped, and his breathing rate gradually returned to normal.

    “Are you okay?”

    Xue Xue asked worriedly.

    Chi Yu’s skin color was already fair, and after this experience, his face completely lost all color, replaced by a little water in his eyes. When he raised his head to meet Xue Xue’s gaze, Xue Xue had a rare and wonderful feeling.

    It was like being shot in the heart by Cupid’s arrow.
