Thinking of this, Shang Ruyi could only smile bitterly.
If she had known earlier that the person he truly loved was Empress Jiang, would she have ended up like this?
She chose such a life, there were indeed benefits, but also costs. Even at this moment she did not regret - as long as she could protect the family she loved, any cost was worth it - yet pain is pain, just like the joy in her heart when facing such a beautiful spectacle cannot deceive anyone, her pain cannot deceive herself.
Seeing the pain in her eyes, Chu Yang said bitterly, "Am I too late?"
"..."
Although her feelings had already been clearly seen through, hearing this question, Shang Ruyi was still in a daze.
Was he really too late?
Yet, she remembered that day, he appeared in the rain holding an umbrella, elegant and gentle like an Immortal, accompanying her on a walk to enjoy the scenery, not saying a word, but soothing the sorrow in her heart with the tranquil atmosphere.
Was it really too late?
