Lu Tingyuan said sorry.

What a familiar three words.

The same answer she gave to Zhou Ze just now.

She said she was sorry, which meant that she didn't love Lu Tingyuan.

When he said sorry, he was telling her that he would not go with her.

Qiao Sheng's fingertips felt cold.

Isn't this a kind of mutual torture?

Lu Tingyuan, do we have to be like this?

Qiao Sheng had a lot to say, but after he said he was sorry, Qiao Sheng didn't know what to say.

She looked at Lu Tingyuan, and he looked at her. Qiao Sheng couldn't see clearly the emotions hidden in his eyes. She could only vaguely feel that he was enduring something or restraining something.

Only Lu Tingyuan knew that what could not be expressed passionately was his deep love for Qiao Sheng.

Yes, Shengsheng.

A dying person is not worthy of love.

What a strange feeling, as if her hard and cold heart softened for a moment. She and Lu Tingyuan looked at each other for only a few seconds, but why did it last as long as ten thousand years in the past?

Qiao Sheng's hand couldn't help but touch his heart.

Lu Tingyuan, you have hurt me, made me despair, and made me painful, so I have sworn that I will never forgive you in this life, and if I don't pity you again, I will break up with you completely!

If possible, I really hope never to see you forever.

But the oath I made was shaken so quickly.

I can't watch you die, I can't watch you fall into the abyss of the Lu family and be unable to extricate yourself. Knowing that you are in danger, how could I leave you alone and leave?

I want to save you.

Lu Tingyuan, I want you to live.

Qiao Sheng retracted her hand. When she went to take Lu Tingyuan's hand, she deliberately put her hand into the pocket of her coat. Her fingers were curled up tightly, coveting the little remaining warmth in her palm.

It wasn't until both hands became warmer that Qiao Sheng stretched out her pocket. When she reached for Lu Tingyuan's hand, she glanced out the window.

I don't know when the snow became much lighter, and the gray sky became much brighter because of the snow. Qiao Sheng vaguely felt that the sun would come out soon.

Qiao Sheng looked at Lu Tingyuan, his face was colder and whiter than the snowy scene outside the window.

She gently called Lu Tingyuan's name, "Look, no matter how bad the weather is, sunny days will eventually come. Lu Tingyuan, no matter how long the winter is, spring will still come."

Qiao Sheng sat on the edge of the bed as she spoke. When Lu Tingyuan was about to take back her hand, she held his hand tightly.

She could feel Lu Tingyuan trying to break away, but Qiao Sheng's grip was tight. Even though it was like holding a piece of ice, Qiao Sheng didn't let go.

She spoke sincerely and firmly again.

"Lu Tingyuan, come with me. Leave Jiangcheng and the Lu family. We can drive Qiao to other cities, to a place that is suitable for you to recuperate, to a place where it is like spring all year round and there are always flowers in bloom."

"Lu Tingyuan, I want you to live well. I want you to be able to see the blue sky and the sun when you open your eyes. I want you to smell the fragrance of flowers forever."

"So, come with me."

Don’t be trapped in a prison by so-called family ties anymore, Lu Tingyuan, I want to see your smile and want you to be sunny forever.

Probably because she was afraid that Lu Tingyuan would reject her again, Qiao Sheng thought for a moment and added, "This is the last time I will say this."

After finishing speaking, Qiao Sheng looked at Lu Tingyuan quietly.

It was a matter of life and death, and Qiao Sheng could no longer care about all the hatred. Her eyes were bright and clear, just like when he saw Qiao Sheng for the first time, her eyes were shining like stars.

Lu Tingyuan's eyes narrowed.

How could he forget that in the past, Qiao Sheng was a bright, lively, smiling and cute girl. It was he who forced Qiao Sheng to lose the light in her eyes step by step. It was he who single-handedly made Qiao Sheng what she is today.

The light in her eyes now was brought to her by Shen Yu.

It was as if she wanted to save him now, but he couldn't see the love in her eyes.

Qiao Sheng only wanted redemption for him and nothing else.

Lu Tingyuan wanted to give Qiao Sheng a smile, but the corners of his lips couldn't help but turn down, and he couldn't smile. He wanted to ask her, Shengsheng, I have done so many damn wrong things, why don't you hate me and stand up? You smiled and watched me die, but instead, you wanted to save me?

I don't deserve this from you. I have let you down for thirteen years, how dare I expect to spend the rest of my life with you.

So Lu Tingyuan closed his eyes, withdrew his hand forcefully, and said sorry again.

"You don't want to go with me, do you?"

Lu Tingyuan hummed.

Qiao Sheng was only slightly startled, but didn't react much. It seemed that he was expecting it, but it seemed that it was unexpected. Qiao Sheng just told him calmly, "An An wants to see you."

"She wants to meet her father."

These two short words made Lu Tingyuan burst into tears instantly!

The warm family of three has become an unattainable dream. Now, how dare he think about it, how dare he return to An An!

Lu Tingyuan forced his tears back. He didn't want to see An An. He was afraid that seeing An An would make him even more afraid of death. That was the most helpless and despairing thing.

There are so many things in this world that I miss, how could I die!

But Shengsheng, my life is never in my hands.

When Lu Tingyuan opened his eyes and looked at Qiao Sheng, the corners of his eyes were red, but his tone was pretending to be strong and indifferent.

"Shengsheng, you can find her another father."

"Find a father who is more suitable, better, stronger, more doting on her and loves her than me."

Where Qiao Sheng couldn't see him, Lu Tingyuan pinched himself tightly.

But he couldn't be cruel no matter what, he couldn't say harsh words to Qiao Sheng, he couldn't bear to hurt her, even if it was just a hurtful word, he couldn't say it.

So in Qiao Sheng's answer.

"There are indeed countless men in the world, but in An An's heart, she only has one father, and her father is Lu Tingyuan. No matter how good or good the man is, he cannot replace him."

Lu Tingyuan only felt that his mouth was full of fishy taste, and his fragile body was almost destroyed by the dual pain of tearing and heart-piercing pain!

He cannot fall!

Absolutely not!

Hold on, he has to hold on in front of Shengsheng!

Lu Tingyuan forced himself to swallow the blood back into his stomach, then turned his head and quickly wiped away the blood that overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

When he was able to speak, he responded to Qiao Sheng, "An'an can't see her anymore. What's the point of me being in front of her? Anyone can pretend to be me, anyone can be her father."

What an answer!

Lu Tingyuan is crazy, isn't he?

Qiao Sheng's heart tightened and she raised the decibel level, "I'll pretend I didn't hear it. Lu Tingyuan, An An misses you so much. She cried many times because of you. Don't let her cry anymore."

Don’t let me down again and again!

Lu Tingyuan, everything I did was just to enable you to live.

"So I asked you to find another father for An An." Lu Tingyuan spoke again, as if he wanted to push Qiao Sheng away, "I don't want to leave Jiangcheng, nor the Lu family, nor Shi Xiang'er, my father, grandfather... ...The people I care about are all here, Shengsheng, how do you want me to leave?"

Qiao Sheng was a little stunned.

"Lu Tingyuan, you said these words on purpose, didn't you?"

Lu Tingyuan shook his head, "I know my physical condition. If I die soon, I hope I can be with my family."

"What about An An? She is your daughter!" Qiao Sheng's tone was a little urgent. She didn't understand why Lu Tingyuan said that.

He stood in the snow for so long, just waiting for her to look back. Now that she is here, shouldn't he be happy?

So Lu Tingyuan, your words are a bit too deliberate.

"Don't try to lie to me, Lu Tingyuan."

I can’t deceive you anymore, Shengsheng, you have changed a lot. You are smarter and more rational and calm. You make me very surprised and very happy.

Sheng Sheng, Sheng Sheng.

If possible, I really hope to engrave your name on my heart. Not only in this life, but also forever, I will never forget you.

But Shengsheng, I can no longer see our future.

Just like the white snow, desolation and loneliness, it will be a road I have to walk alone. How can I let you and An An bear it with me.

"An'an's surname is Qiao, isn't she?"

"As early as when you gave birth to her, I never acknowledged that she was my child. Have you forgotten how I threw her into the orphanage? I didn't even want to change her surname to Lu, Shengsheng.

,don’t you understand yet?”

"I, a dying person, can see clearly better than you. Shengsheng, you have fallen in love with Shen Yu, haven't you? Let him be An An's new father."
