nThe Firmament Stone left her wrist and hovered in front of her, as if observing her expression,

"Were you in love with him?

"

nGu Xijiu lied on the bed, looked up at the canopy, and softly said,

"I think so. I didn’t trust anyone else, as much as I trusted him. I told him all my secrets and I did not need to be vigil when he was around…

"

nThe Firmament Stone said,

"This was simply a tragedy…

"

n

"Yes, it was a tragedy. I always thought that he liked me too, or else he would not be taking care of me so well. Every time I encountered any danger, he would fall from the sky like a knight and hug me in his arms, telling me not to be afraid, as he was there for me…

"

nShe paused for a while and then continued,

"Although I did not need his help most of the time, and sometimes he even alerted the enemy of his sudden arrival, I still liked the feeling of being taken care of. I thought he would be the love of my life. I never expected that…

"

n

"That day I went for a coffee date with him and planned to propose to him. He had a cold temper so I thought that waiting for him to propose would take forever. Since we loved each other, it wouldn't matter who proposed. Haha, I was so innocent back then. I never knew that he already had a fiancé and didn't even know that he planned a scheme against me. I drank the coffee that he prepared for me… When the drugs started to kick in, he called his fiancé out from the other room and told me that I was a clone. His fiancé needed my heart to save her life…

"

nTonight, Gu Xijiu seemed to be very open and voiced out all the secrets buried deep inside her heart.

nBut her voice had always been very calm. It was apparently a very tragic thing but she retold it, as if she was telling someone else's story.

n

"And then?

" The Firmament Stone could not wait to ask.

n

"The story after this was very simple. I had an antibody to the anesthetic. Although Long Xi had injected me with an anesthetic, I only knocked out for an hour. When I was awake the operation was already in progress and the surgeon was Long Xi. He never expected that I would wake up midway, so he panicked and told me not to worry, as he wouldn't let me die. He told me that he had prepared a heart in exchange for mine. Oh yeah, he also promised that he would marry me…

"

nThe Firmament Stone was angry,

"He could still lie at this point?! What happened next?

"

n

"Nothing much. I killed him when he was not paying attention. I also ripped off my heart. At the time, my chest had already been opened and the heart was about to be taken out. I did not want to let other people use my heart so I destroyed it by myself…

"

nWhat a tragic ending.

nThe Firmament Stone remained silent.

nAfter a while, it asked,

"You could still kill him at that vert moment. You were indeed very skillful. Are you sure that he was already dead?

"

nGu Xijiu replied,

"I think so. I pierced through where his heart was and he might not have enough time to get a healthy heart to replace it, so I bet he had been killed.

"

n

"Do you hate him?

"

nGu Xijiu put her hands behind her head. She closed her eyes and said softly,

"No. At the time when I killed him, I had settled all the hatred I had against him. I did not owe him and he did not owe me anymore.

"

nYes, she did not hate him, but she could no longer believe in love.

n

"Master, why you are suddenly reminiscing about him?

" The Firmament Stone asked.
