Every time the prince opens his eyes, he sees

He Yaoyao gently stroked the cold tombstone, as if she could feel Chi Yu's warmth through the stone surface.

Her tears fell again, but this time, she did not let the sadness overwhelm her.

Just because she knew Chi Yu didn't like him like that.

After the funeral, He Yaoyao returned to the home where she and Chi Yu once lived together.

Everything here still retains traces of their lives, and every item is full of memories.

……

"Xiao Xie, I'm still very worried about Yaoyao. Do you think she'll be unable to get over it? How about you or Aunt Bang go to the place where she and Chiyu used to live and see her?"

"Okay, Auntie."

Nicholas Tse drove to the apartment.

From the outside window you can see the lights on inside.

He got out of the car and walked inside.

He Yaoyao seemed not to notice him coming in, and her hands were stroking a photo of her and Chi Yu.

Time passed by minute by minute, and Xie Tingxuan did not make a sound to disturb her.

Finally, He Yaoyao put down the photo, turned around, saw him, was startled, and then said: "Did my mother ask you to come here? Is she worried that I will be depressed?"

Xie Tingxuan shook his head, his eyes full of confidence, the confidence to see through everything.

"You won't do anything stupid. First of all, your personality determines that you are not that kind of person. Secondly, with your mother around, you won't do anything reckless."

He Yaoyao raised her eyebrows slightly. She didn't expect Xie Nicholas Tse to analyze her inner thoughts so directly and accurately.

She chuckled, and there was a hint of bitterness and relief in her smile.

"You're right. I won't give up my life easily. Although Chi Yu is gone, what he left me is not only pain, but also the beautiful memories we shared, and his last wish for me - that I would be happy. I can't let him down."

Nicholas Tse nodded silently, with a barely perceptible look of relief in his eyes.

He slowly approached He Yaoyao and was about to pat her shoulder. Before he could do anything, he heard He Yaoyao say, "But I'm really in so much pain. I can't control this pain. I've let him down for two lifetimes. He died because of me in both of his lives. How can I let go of this?"

Tingxuan Xie really wants to say:

what about me?

I died for you in my previous life, and I’m crazy for you in this life?

Is it only when I die that you can see my good side and come to your senses?

But he is not that stupid. If he really dies, he won’t be able to get it, let alone see it.

Yaoyao is so good, she will soon be snatched away by another man.

He would rather watch over her in pain in the mortal world than wander around in hell, unable to do anything.

Chi Yu was already dead, and he couldn't just watch her become depressed.

He wanted to be with her and love her forever, even if it meant using despicable means.

……

After meeting He Yaoyao, Xie Tingxuan came to her mother.

Her mother asked anxiously, "What happened? Is Yaoyao okay?"

Xie Tingxuan's expression was solemn. "Her current condition is not very good. She may become depressed at any time. Chi Yu's death was a huge blow to her. She simply cannot accept it. So, in order for her to live well, I have come up with a plan. I hope Auntie can cooperate with me."

"Okay, you say."

When she heard that her daughter might be unable to make ends meet, she panicked and lost her mind.

Xie Nicholas Tse loves his daughter so much, she never thought that he would do anything bad to her.

……

After reaching an agreement with He Yaoyao's mother, he found He Yaoyao again and said, "Yaoyao, there's an expert in the United States who has great insights into treating Alzheimer's disease. So I want to take your aunt to the United States to see him. Do you agree? By the way, you can go abroad to relax and forget the pain that Chi Yu's death has brought you."

"Really?"

"If you don't believe me, you can ask your mother. I've already talked to her and got her consent."

A glimmer of light flashed in He Yaoyao's eyes, which seemed to be a desire to escape from the current predicament.

She lowered her head in thought for a moment, then looked up at Xie Tingxuan, her eyes filled with gratitude and hesitation. "Thank you, Xie Tingxuan. You've been by my mother and me all this time, helping us a lot. Going to America... is truly a new beginning. Perhaps a change of environment will help me get over it faster."

Xie Tingxuan smiled gently, a smile that held a hidden meaning. "You're welcome, Yaoyao. I'll arrange everything if you're willing. Besides, the treatment conditions in the United States are indeed better, which will be a great help to Auntie's illness. As for you, just think of it as a long vacation for yourself and go see the outside world."

"Ah."

In the following days, Nicholas Tse was busy with the preparations before going abroad, and He Yaoyao also began to pack her luggage slowly. Although she missed Chi Yu like a shadow in her heart, she knew that this was for the good of herself and her family.

The day before going abroad, Li Mubai came to see her.

The two hadn't seen each other for a while, and it was a bit awkward when they first met.

"Yaoyao, I heard about Chiyu. I didn't expect him to leave this world so suddenly. Are you... okay?"

He Yaoyao looked at the cautious man in front of her.

He cares about himself no less than Chi Yu.

He was the one who accompanied me through the difficult time when I first came back.

However, feelings are never measured by the length of time or the amount of effort put in.

He Yaoyao sighed inwardly. She shook her head gently and forced a smile, "Mu Bai, I'm fine. Thank you for coming to see me."

A complex emotion flashed across Li Mubai's eyes, as if he was unwilling and heartbroken. "Yaoyao, I know you're feeling very sad right now. If you need to talk, I'm always here. If you need someone to help you get over your pain, I'm also..."

He was interrupted by He Yaoyao before he finished speaking. He Yaoyao nodded gratefully and said, "Mu Bai, you are really kind, but I... may not be able to accept new feelings for the time being."

Li Mubai smiled bitterly, "I understand, Yaoyao. I just hope you can take good care of yourself and don't make yourself too hard."

The two chatted for a while, and then Li Mubai stood up and said goodbye.

Looking at his departing back, He Yaoyao felt mixed emotions.

She knew that Li Mubai was one of them, but matters of the heart could not be forced after all.

The sun was shining brightly on the day we left the country, which seemed to suggest that the journey would be smooth.

Nicholas Tse stayed by her side the whole time, helping to take care of his mother carefully, which made He Yaoyao feel warm in her heart.

During her time in the United States, He Yaoyao accompanied her mother in her treatment while trying to integrate into the new environment.

But for some reason, the famous figure seemed to be everywhere.

You can see countless of him when walking on the street, but every time you turn around, the face is not his.

He Yaoyao collapsed and squatted on the ground crying.

At this time, a man approached and handed her a tissue, "Little beauty, stop crying. You've broken my heart. If you're willing, I can take you to a happy place and make sure you never think of the sad things again."

"Where are you going?" She wiped her tears.
