Chapter 273: Chapter 273 Willing to Give His Life for Him

"I’ve said it before, if you don’t trust me and feel it’s inconvenient to tell me certain things, I can understand." His eyes were full of sarcasm. "You can choose not to answer directly, there’s no need to rack your brains to fabricate some excuse to fool me!"

"...I’m sorry." She felt a bit flustered, and couldn’t help but smile bitterly. "It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, it’s just... I don’t know how to say it..."

Qiao Yebai turned around, his eyes slightly narrowed. "I only have one question: what exactly is your feeling for Yan Sijue?"

Mu Yiliang was stunned, and a sharp pain shot through her heart.

What exactly was her feeling for Yan Sijue?

Their ties began from that ludicrous marriage contract. She resisted the marriage, so she approached him with another identity.

Admittedly, at the beginning, even though she didn’t want to become that inexplicable Mrs. Yan, she was curious about this man, Yan Sijue.

The more she engaged with him, the more she realized he wasn’t simple.

The passion he gave her, his tender doting, his slowly opened heart all captivated her multiple times.

Even six years later, knowing her deception, he still refused to let go, yet she rejected him time and time again.

How foolish she was back then.

Perhaps it was because she relied on his love for her, she felt fearless, subconsciously testing his patience and tolerance for her.

When she finally saw through her heart and wanted to respond to his affection, he no longer dared to believe.

If only she had realized sooner... if only she had known how deeply she would love him... if, in the beginning, she had a little more faith in him...

But now it’s too late, and she’s missed too many chances...

Thinking of this, her throat tightened, and tears fell involuntarily.

"...Yiliang?" Qiao Yebai seemed surprised by her strong reaction, instinctively walking over to wipe away her tears.

"I love him..."

Words she had never spoken before were revealed for the first time to another man.

Qiao Yebai’s hand froze.

"I love him." Mu Yiliang repeated, taking a deep breath and looking up at him. "That is my feeling for him."

Qiao Yebai looked at her silently, his dark eyes revealing no emotion.

"When you left today, you deliberately put on makeup." Qiao Yebai suddenly smiled a little, speaking of unrelated matters. "It was to make your complexion look better, right?"

Mu Yiliang hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"You didn’t want Yan Sijue to know you were hurt." Qiao Yebai continued, "Because the gunshot you suffered was because of him, wasn’t it?"

"I..."

"You got hurt shielding him from a bullet, didn’t you?" Qiao Yebai stubbornly questioned.

"...Yes." She finally nodded and admitted.

Qiao Yebai smiled gently.

"So that’s how it is." His expression was indescribable, neither happy nor angry. "It turns out you are even willing to offer your life for him. It seems you truly love him..."

"At that moment... I wasn’t thinking much..." Seeing him like this, Mu Yiliang felt inexplicably panicked. "In the future, I will cherish my life..."

"I don’t believe it." Qiao Yebai seemed a bit angry, his tone mocking and cold. "If it happens again, you would still rush to shield him without hesitation! I really didn’t expect, my sister turned out to be a love-struck fool."
