The woman in white sneered, "Why make things complicated Just leave him."

Jun Wei was stunned. If it were that simple, why would she go through so much trouble to come to Athens and risk the danger of Ye Feimo finding out about her being in the Aegean Sea Was she just bored

"I don't believe there's nothing I can do," Jun Wei said solemnly.

The woman in white replied, "Believe it or not is up to you. All I can say is that the curse cannot be avoided. You should go to the Du family; the Long family has always belonged to the Du family. Don't resist anymore; you can't afford the cost."

"If I could get a divorce, I wouldn’t have come here," Jun Wei said in a daze. "Why does such an evil curse exist Why do I believe in it Why am I not the daughter of the Wen family instead of being born into the Long family"

She asked several questions, but the woman in white remained expressionless.

She simply said, "You have no choice."

Jun Wei knew that she indeed had no choice. Being born into the Long family was not something she could choose.

"Are you also from the Long family"

"Do I need to ask such a question"

"Then what about you and me…" Jun Wei wanted to know their relationship but felt that asking wouldn't make any difference. The woman in white looked very young, younger than her, yet she seemed experienced beyond her years.

Jun Wei thought to herself that at least she had been lucky. She had grown up without knowing she was from the Long family and had never taken on any responsibility related to it. She lived happily and carefree for twenty-one years without a worry in the world.

She was indeed fortunate compared to the girl before her who seemed much less happy.

At least, there was no deadness and emptiness in her eyes like the pale-clothed girl's.

Warming knew that even if she asked more questions, she wouldn't get any answers. She finally gave up hope, walked towards Ye Feimo, but felt conflicted as this pale-clad woman was the first relative she had ever seen.

Yet, they were even more strangers to each other than people who have just met.

Ye Feimo asked, "What did you talk about with her"

Warming shook her head listlessly and said, "We didn't say much; I only inquired about Mom. Let's go."

The place made her feel very uncomfortable and suffocated.

Ye Feimo didn't say anything more, leading Warming along the path lined with red spider lilies to the seaside where they boarded a yacht.

The pale-clothed woman watched them leave, her lips curling into an ambiguous smile.

Warming stood alone at the bow of the ship. The scenery of the Aegean Sea was truly beautiful, especially when seen from the island, it was breathtaking. Although there was a special field of red spider lilies that looked eerie, during sunset, with blood-like rays reflecting off the setting sun and an atmosphere of solemnity, it made for a stunning view.

Watching the sunset at sea was indeed a unique experience.

Living in such a place, whether for retirement or eternal rest, would be an excellent choice.

Therefore...

Long Xiushui should now be resting in peace.

Warming didn't feel any particular emotion towards this mother she had never met before and wasn't grief-stricken with her; there was only a faint pity. Perhaps because blood is thicker than water, she wished that Long Xiushui could rest in peace after death.

Ye Feimo walked over and silently held her in his arms.

Her back looked lonely, sad, and isolated; he felt a pang of compassion. Despite being a simple woman, recently he found it hard to read her thoughts or understand what she was contemplating.

She seemed to have many concerns, but kept them buried deep within herself, unwilling to speak about them, just as he didn’t want to pressure her.

If she didn't want to talk, then he would give her an embrace to let her know that his presence was all she needed.

He wouldn't push her.

No longer would he.

Warming leaned against Ye Feimo's chest, filled with sorrow.

She no longer resisted this warm embrace and reached out to hug him tightly. Wherever Ye Feimo was, she felt inexplicably at ease; even after visiting Long Xiushui’s grave, she still felt secure.

But if such a person were gone from the world, how sorrowful would it be for her

The mere thought of it was unbearable.

"Feimo, one day…"

Warming stopped midway through her sentence, her nose stinging painfully. She couldn't bring herself to say what she wanted, yet at the same time, she yearned to know his thoughts. "What are you most afraid of"

"Most afraid "

Ye Feimo gently stroked her long hair with a tender gaze filled with affection. "With you in my arms now, there's nothing I fear. What I'm most scared of is losing you."

Warming gave a bitter smile. "Do you know what terrifies me the most"

"What’s that"

Hugging him tightly, she whispered softly: "I’m most afraid of death.

All people fear death; with too many concerns in heart, once dead everything is gone. What happens to those we care about then

Ye Feimo paused, in a flash of insight, Ye Feimo seemed to realize something. He couldn't help but look down at Nuwan; some things he had been ignoring appeared to resurface— the Aegean Sea, Nuwan's mother… Nuwan…

He looked at Nuwan who had been preoccupied with thoughts lately. Could it be because of the curse

Had she found out

Who told her

No wonder…

"Nuwan, did Du Di say anything to you" Ye Feimo asked solemnly. "Do you know about the curse"

Nuwan got up from his embrace and looked at Ye Feimo with wide-eyed innocence. “What curse What did Du Di say”

Seeing her innocent expression, Ye Feimo couldn't help but wonder if Nuwan really knew nothing about it.

"It doesn’t matter." Ye Feimo said. Nuwan turned her head and was secretly surprised; she had been trying so hard to hide the truth, yet Ye Feimo already knew about the curse. If he knew, why did he still want her

Why

What could be more important than his life Knowing that Ye Feimo wouldn't normally believe in such things, Nuwan wondered if he really didn’t care about Long Family’s peculiar situation.

The pain in Nuwan's heart intensified. For a person to stake their own life and still want another, it required tremendous confidence and self-awareness as well as tough choices. Tears welled up in Nuwan’s eyes; despite knowing everything after the incident, Ye Feimo continued loving her一如既往地。

But she thought about divorce.

If the curse had been on her, she wouldn't have cared about anything else, but now that it was afflicting Ye Feimo instead, how could she pretend nothing happened Even if they stayed together like this, neither of them would be happy. The rest of their days would only be filled with gloom and despair.

When the two returned home, Nuwan's mother had not yet arrived. Feeling tired, Nuwan skipped dinner and went to her room for a rest.em with others. This is due to psychological trauma where he doesn’t want to remember anything painful, choosing parts of his memory that could be replaced by a fabricated story to believe in more eas...
