She came to a stop at the doorstep of a bridal shop. There was a huge, beautiful photograph hanging in the window, and she could recognize the people in it. It was a new one in replacement to the old one which had faded. So was her faded scarlet heart. Who would believe in forever love?
To think that he had declared he would love Xia Yixuan till his death. He fell in love with another within one year.
Chu Lui, oh, Chu Lui. With her hands on the icy glass, her fingertips were so cold—her mouth a bitter taste.
Besides Xia Yixuan, he could also be kind to another woman. The cruelty was only reserved for her. Love and cruelty could be this distinctive.
She turned away. The woman in the photograph smiled blissfully; she appeared to be happier than Xia Yixuan, not to mention Xia Ruoxin.
...
Xiao Hong sighed frequently in the Chu villa. Another woman was here instead of her madam, and she was gone. She did not know if she was feeling sad. Where had that madam gone? She seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth without any news.
She stood from aside and stared. All of Madam’s clothes and things she had used were thrown away. Her belongings were getting lesser, one at a time. Perhaps in the near future, everyone would forget that a woman—who loved to cry—had resided here before.
...
Chu Lui stood in the room as he felt an unexplainable feeling of emptiness. He had gotten rid of all of Xia Ruoxin’s things. She had meant her word and took nothing from the Chu family.
He took out a cigarette and squinted darkly at the wedding portrait hanging on the wall. This should be taken down too—not because he wasn’t in love with Yixuan. Yixuan would be buried deep within his heart while he would have a treasured wife.
The view in front of him was hazy; a face showing occasionally that he was deep in his thoughts. What was he emotional and sad about?
Maybe he wasn’t thinking, or maybe he didn’t know himself.
His staff acted quickly. The portrait on the wall had finally changed to the one of him and Li Manni. Actually, he had many options for a newlywed bedroom; he did not have to choose this room. Surprisingly, he had not thought of any other places. In his mind, this was his home.
He was not sure if it was because there had been another woman here besides Xia Yixuan.
He walked out. Very soon, there would be a female owner here; one whom he liked and not hated.
They were engaged. After what happened to Xia Ruoxin, Li Manni was now receiving well-wishes. Chu Lui had promised to marry her in a grand ceremony, and he was true to his word. There was no negative news, and they were in bliss with envy.
The car came to a stop. Li Manni’s arm was around Chu Lui’s intimately. “Where are we going today?” She looked up, and her face no longer had the shyness she presented previously. Instead, it was a happiness that was evident to anyone who has seen her. Chu Lui treated her very well and loved her, and she believed that she would be the happiest bride.
“What do you say? Anywhere you want.” Chu Lui moved forward, his eyes straight ahead. He had no idea what he wanted to eat; he was hungry but did not have the appetite to think of any delicacy. His world seemed bright yet gray and hazy at the same time.
He was glancing around, searching subconsciously, not knowing what he was looking for.
