Chapter 361 - The Mafia King\'s Awakening - Pain (8)

Lihua self-deprecatingly chuckled. "You played me really well, Wei."

He trembled as the guilt washed over him.

Lihua took the pen in her hands. Her fingers shook as she turned the papers. The divorce statement brought tears to her eyes, and her gaze turned blurry. It felt as if her heart would rip into pieces any moment.

All their precious memories, the time they spent at the island, the promises they made to each other, his sweet nothings that always made her heart skip a beat, his feathery kisses and his warm hugs that always made her feel safe; everything flashed in her mind like a never-ending movie.

Wei\'s first innocent smile that had taken her breath away was still fresh in her mind as if it only happened yesterday. But with her one signature, everything would end.

I loved you so much, Wei, so much that it hurts. Why did you have to bring us to this point here?

Why couldn\'t we have stayed happy like the other couples?

Why Wei...

Tears plopped on the papers as the tip of the pen shakingly touched the paper. As she finally etched her sign on it, she felt her heart crush into pieces.

Gone…everything is gone now…

Lihua looked frighteningly withdrawn. The pen slipped from her fingers as her eyes looked empty.

On the other side, Wei hadn\'t moved from his spot. He stared at those ominous words that would tear him apart from Lihua forever.

It was a promise always to live together. Whether it be on that island or years back…

\'Godly handsome pwince! Will you make me your wife one day?\' the little Lihua shyly asked as her gaze brightened in hope.

Wei tilted his head. \'Wife?\'

"En. Wife. A husband and wife always stay together! It\'s what my Mama Dada said! I want to stay with Godly handsome pwince!\'

Wei seemed to understand it faintly.

\'Do you want to live with me too?\'

Wei felt as if he could see an imaginary tail and dog ears on the little Lihua that was furiously wagging to hear his answer.

He softly smiled. \'En.\'

Lihua hopped in bliss and danced around Wei. \'Yay! I will be Godly handsome pwince wife! I will take good care of you! I will cook yummy food for you too!\' she proudly said.

Wei nodded. \'I will make yummy food for you too.\'

Her eyes sparkled. She raised her little finger. \'So it\'s a pwomise! I will be your wife one day, and then we will always live together!\' she merrily chirped. \'Let\'s pinky pwomise!\'

\'What is that?\' Wei curiously asked.

\'It\'s a pwomise you cannot break!\' she harrumphed. \'We touch our pinky fingers and, then, it\'s a pwomise. If you break it, then...then...it will be really bad!\'

He nodded again and touched his little finger with hers as he said with a determined gaze.

\'I promise. You will be my wife one day, and we will always live together.\'

That was that memory of the past, but fate had brought them today at this stage when they had to break their promise.

Lihua had already signed on the papers.

As Wei signed his name on the papers, too, he felt the familiar darkness enveloping him once again before he had met Lihua. He felt himself stepping back into his shell, where he always lived a lonely and dull life.

His wife, his child...he had lost everything now for good. There was no turning back.

There was a long silence between them. Nobody said a word.

The Bureau official took the papers. He stared at them, who looked lifeless as if somebody sucked out every last drop of energy and hope from them.

"I will process the papers and get your divorce certificate."

They slightly jolted.

As he left, it was only them in the room. Lihua knew that if she stayed any longer, she wouldn\'t be able to hold back and completely break down. She had forced herself to remain strong to go through this. But it was over now, and she wanted to leave as soon as possible.

She pushed the chair back and slowly got up. As she turned, she felt a sharp dizziness shoot through her head, and she stumbled.

But she landed into a pair of warm arms who had immediately held her in a lightning response. Her brows furrowed, and the hazy image slowly cleared as she saw Wei.

But instead of freezing on the spot or pushing him away, she just blankly stood there and stared at him.

"A-are you okay…?" He slightly choked.

Her voice was devoid of any emotions as she spoke, "Should I be really okay?"

His eyelashes trembled.

"I am not okay...I am not okay at all…"

Wei felt a chill run down his spine. Her voice, her aura, her eyes; everything looked all too dreary and bleak.

"I didn\'t want to do this at all. But you forced me to...So I am not okay at all...I lost the two most precious people who I loved the most in this world. I am not okay at all…"

She weakly hit his chest and mumbled. "I am not okay at all...and I don\'t know what to do anymore…I-"

Suddenly Wei pulled her towards him and firmly hugged her in his embrace. He wrapped his arms around her waist and enveloped her small figure within his tall and broad stature.

They just silently stayed like that for a long, long time. Lihua didn\'t have the heart to push him away either because this was the last time they were going to be in each other\'s embrace like this.

As Wei slowly withdrew, his fingers entangled themselves within her hair, and he gently leaned towards her.

Their lips met, making her eyes slowly widen. She didn\'t know what she was supposed to feel, so she simply stood there.

But at that moment, she knew.

It was a parting kiss.

Their ways were forever diverged now.

Wei kept his lips pressed on hers, and it broke his heart to withdraw, but he did.

"I know you hate my sight now. But will you please forgive me for this…?"
