Ye Lu shuddered violently, her heart clenched into a tight ball as she numbly collapsed onto the ground, her entire being dazed.
His words struck right at her most vulnerable spot. She wasn't afraid to die, and she'd rather die with him.
But she had a child, she couldn't just disregard the child inside her.
Third Young Master Jun, seeing her come to her senses after hearing about the child, felt relieved. He guessed right, for the sake of the child, she could do anything, endure any pain and still choose to live on.
Even if he really died, they still had four children, enough to soothe the grief in her heart and allow her life to go on.
But then he heard Ye Lu's hoarse voice rise up again.
"But I... still can't leave, I can't abandon you."
Third Young Master Jun's breath choked, and he almost collapsed. Why was she so stubbornly unyielding, knowing that staying meant dying together, yet still so obstinate?
