Chapter 562: Chapter 562: Wishing You Well for the Rest of Your Life, No More Wasted Time
No wonder Yu Qingzhou looked so shocked when he heard my confession, no wonder he said he and I could never be together in this lifetime, no wonder he kept avoiding me, no wonder he wanted to flee this city and never had any plans to return.
This melodramatic plotline, even novels and TV dramas wouldn’t dare to write it like this. I’ve seen plenty of jokes about it, where lovers end up being siblings. I always thought it was a joke, but who would have thought that such an ironic thing actually exists in this world, and it just had to happen to me.
I might as well go buy a lottery ticket; with such odds, I don’t think there will be a second person to encounter this.
The room was unusually quiet, even the breathing was faint, as if deliberately giving Su Shiyue time and space to cope, but how could she possibly get over such a thing in a short time? Even Fu Shinian, he couldn’t imagine if he was in Su Shiyue’s shoes whether he could handle it better than she did.
Yu Qingzhou wanted to speak, but was stopped by Fu Shinian across from him. Although he had always disapproved of Su Shiyue’s way of handling things, he still loved his sister dearly. Seeing her like this now, it would be a lie to say he wasn’t pained, but what good would that do? He couldn’t replace even one ten-thousandth of it.
Time passed indeterminately until Su Shiyue finally reacted. She laughed, starting with a chuckle, then a cold laugh, and eventually a loud guffaw, as if she had accepted all of this irony, yet also seemed to have gone mad.
Su Mu disregarded Fu Shinian’s obstruction, stood up, walked over, and took Su Shiyue’s hand:
"Shiyue, I know asking you to calm down is a luxury, but things are what they are. I only hope that you don’t keep any emotions bottled up inside. You can vent them out, whatever it is, it’s better than fighting with yourself."
Su Mu’s words seemed to have some effect on Su Shiyue; she slowly stopped laughing, and her gaze shifted to Su Mu’s face. But the look in her eyes when she looked at Su Mu was no longer the friendliness and admiration from before. Her gaze was like ice, extremely cold:
"Did you already know? Did you just want to laugh at me? Because I targeted you years ago, so you wanted to use this way to laugh at me. Now you’ve seen it, how does it feel? Do you feel the satisfaction of revenge? Your heart must be thrilled, right? Back then I treated you that way, and now you have repaid it in this manner..."
Fu Shinian furrowed his brows at these words:
"Su Shiyue, watch your words. Susu only found out last night too."
"Really?" Su Shiyue chuckled: "Even if you found out last night, in your heart, you must have been pleased the moment you heard the news, right?"
Although Su Mu couldn’t fully empathize with Su Shiyue’s feelings at the moment, she could understand somewhat, so even though Su Shiyue was saying these things that misunderstood her, she didn’t feel much anger, only looking at her:
"If saying this makes you feel better, I don’t mind being your punching bag."
Fu Shinian: "Did you get my approval? I can’t even bring myself to raise my voice at you, so why should she?"
Su Mu turned around and glared at Fu Shinian, feeling that what he was saying now was nothing but asking for a beating, but Fu Shinian was completely unaware of what he had done wrong, meeting Su Mu’s gaze steadily without an iota of submission, as if he wouldn’t consider Shiyue’s current mood should she utter another word that was to her disadvantage.
Actually, deep down Shiyue might not be unaware that Su Mu had never had such thoughts about herself; she also believed what Fu Shinian said, that Su Mu had only just found out, but the problem was, she didn’t know what to do anymore. She felt like there was a fire inside her and a heavy stone pressing down hard on her chest, so that fire could never be released and could only slowly consume her from the inside until it exploded.
It wasn’t that she was targeting Su Mu, but at this moment whoever spoke to her would set her off.
She slumped back into her seat, holding her head in her hands, furiously pulling at her hair. Yu Qingzhou stood up and walked over; this time, Fu Shinian didn’t stop him, merely watching him coldly.
Seeing this, Su Mu returned to where she had been standing by Fu Shinian’s side.
Yu Qingzhou crouched in front of Shiyue, raising his hands as if to touch her, but as he was about to make contact, seemingly remembering something, he ultimately retracted his hand. He pressed his lips together and then spoke:
"Shiyue, I know your heart must be in turmoil right now, but this is the reality. If you don’t want to see me, I’ll leave right now. However, I still want to make it clear that this whole affair has been my fault from beginning to end. Since the first time we met, Fu Shinian suggested I should be frank with you, but it was I who had reservations and chose not to speak."
"Having made the decision not to tell you then, I shouldn’t have come near you again for any reason afterward, become a part of your life, let you consider me in a way that you shouldn’t, and let you misunderstand that my approach had ulterior motives. I’m truly sorry. If there were ever a chance to start over in this world, I definitely wouldn’t choose to reappear before you and cause you such pain."
Shiyue maintained the same posture as if she hadn’t listened to a single word from Yu Qingzhou. After a long silence, and with obvious heartache, Yu Qingzhou realized he didn’t know what else to do. Throwing Shiyue into such a distorted relationship was already a source of guilt he couldn’t shake off. Perhaps leaving was the only path for everything to return to peace.
Although Shiyue might not know how long it would take to recover, if Yu Qingzhou remained by her side, she would never be able to move forward.
Yu Qingzhou slowly rose to his feet, and in the end, he still stretched out his hand to gently touch Shiyue’s hair:
"Shiyue, I’m leaving. I hope you have a peaceful life, with no further regrets."
After saying these words, Yu Qingzhou left without a second glance towards the door. However, just as he was about to reach the door, he was suddenly struck hard by a heavy object, causing severe pain and making his body stagger, though he did not fall. The object that had hit him crashed onto the floor, shattered, and Yu Qingzhou never looked back.
But both Su Mu and Fu Shinian saw Shiyue picking up everything on the low table, and with decisive anger, flinging it towards Yu Qingzhou. Su Mu had the intention to stop her, but Fu Shinian held her hand back, so in the end, they could only watch with their eyes wide open.
Shiyue, looking in the direction of Yu Qingzhou:
"Did you ever ask for my opinion? You say leave and you leave, come and you come, who do you think I am, treating me well without my knowledge, saying it’s just a brother’s feeling toward a sister, but I don’t know you, didn’t even know of your existence in this world—do you think a normal person would feel that your kindness was only as a brother to a sister?"
