Shang Ruyi took a deep breath and continued: "Since back then, we all anticipated he could ascend to power, then what kind of person would his son and daughter-in-law be? How could I, being in the midst of it all, not think about it?"
"..."
"How could I not figure it out?"
"..."
"At that time, Brother already said he wanted to take me away, you must have thought about it too, right? If I really couldn't accept it, I would have left back then."
"..."
"Since I didn't leave then, now, it's even less likely that I will."
"..."
"Because,"
At this point, she looked up at Shen Wuzheng and smiled: "this path is what I chose myself!"
At this, her own breath couldn't help but weaken, and finally, under Shen Wuzheng's deep yet gentle gaze, it was as if she was defeated, unable to say the words that followed.
And Shen Wuzheng's brows slowly relaxed.
However, his eyes held more understanding and heartache.
He said, "So, it's not that you don't mind."
"..."
