Tao Yi was slightly taken aback, instantly understanding her implication.
He was no longer angry, all that was left in his heart was distress.
He also felt a bit of remorse, blaming himself for not being able to help her in timeâ¦
âXiaotang, you didnât do anything wrong. Itâs me, useless and incapable of helping you,â he said guilt-ridden.
Hai Xiaotang quickly shook her head, âTao Yi, itâs not your fault, donât blame yourself. In fact, I should thank you. Thank you so much for your unwavering support. It was me who let down your goodwill.â
Tao Yi pursed his lips, âSo, you really plan to remarry Dongfang Yu and stay with him for the rest of your life?â
âYes.â Hai Xiaotang nodded, having made this decision, she wouldnât change it.
A sharp pain stabbed Tao Yiâs heart, âYou wonât regret it?â
Hai Xiaotang lightly smiled, âI wonât. Tao Yi, I am really okay. Donât worry about me, I have already let go of everything, really.â
Tao Yi immediately guessed her thoughts.
âLetting go of everything means you donât care about your own happiness anymore, being indifferent to whom you marry?!â
Hai Xiaotang was stunned.
Tao Yi grasped her shoulders demanding, âIs that it?â
Hai Xiaotang didnât want to lie to him, she nodded, âYes, I donât care anymore, I truly donât.â
Dongfang Yu, who had been eavesdropping from the side, finally couldnât help but rush over, grabbing Hai Xiaotang!
Hai Xiaotang staggered, she looked up in surprise, met his gloomy eyes!
Seeing him suddenly, she was taken abackâ¦
Hadnât he already left?
Dongfang Yu clenched her wrist, suppressing his anger and pain, questioning word for word, âYour acceptance of me is simply because you donât care anymore? Do you completely disregard me?!â
ââ¦â Hai Xiaotang blinked, not knowing how to respond.
But her silence was as good as admitting it.
Dongfang Yu suddenly felt furious, a fury that seemed to come out of nowhere!
âYou completely donât care about me, not even hate?!â he questioned again.
Hai Xiaotang remained silentâ¦
Dongfang Yu was deeply shocked, his heart felt as if it had been ripped apart, empty and hollow.
He hadnât thought it possible, that she had no hate left for himâ¦
But how could that be possible? How could she not hate him?
âAnna, I am really not hated?â He couldnât help but seek assurance again, his eyes filled with tension and cautiousness, âNot even a little bit of hate?â
Hai Xiaotang felt her emotions getting a little complicated, but nodded honestly, âYes, I donât hate anymore.â
Hating someone is too tiring, she no longer wanted to bear that burden.

He suddenly felt very ironic, all the while he was hoping that Hai Xiaotang still loved him.
But⦠She did not even want to spare him a bit of hate anymore.
She wasnât even willing to show him a shred of hatred!
When a person no longer hates someone who has hurt them, what does it mean?
It means that person has truly let go of everything, completely let go of anything related to that person, both love, and hate.
This release was absoluteâ¦
Now he understood why Hai Xiaotang had been so cooperative and not resistant to him lately.
He had expected her to be learning to accept him.
But she had only entirely let go of her love and hate for him; therefore, she was indifferent to everything about him.
He should have known this all along, he had sensed it but⦠His heart didnât dare to think that way, he was scared to admit it.
Now, facing the reality, he could not deceive himself any longerâ¦
But this truth, it was like a knife stabbing into his heart, like a bloody wound!
