Bai Yu, no, now she should be called Shangguan Yu. As I watched her radiant smile, and saw the tenderness in A'Sheng's gaze as he looked at her,
I finally understood everything. The one A'Sheng loved... was not me, never was me. Everything, all of it, had been a carefully laid trap by the two of them. And all of it was done for the secret I carried.
How laughable. How utterly laughable.
True affection meant nothing in the face of profit. No, A'Sheng was capable of true affection. It just wasn't for me.
"Look at her, doesn't she look like a stray dog that's been cast aside?" Shangguan Yu laughed sweetly.
"She's not even worthy of being compared to a dog," A'Sheng advances step by step, a dagger in his hand, disgust in his eyes. "Fortunately, she's stupid enough. Otherwise, having to keep up this farce every night would have given me nightmares!"
I had nowhere to run, no strength left to resist. They severed the tendons in my hands and feet, then tossed me into the gutter of the Unbound Cavern. Even as my body fell, I forced my eyes to remain open. I wanted to see them, to etch their faces into my memory. Even if I became a ghost, I would never forgive them.
No—
I refuse to die like this.
I refuse!
I will claw my way out of this darkness.
I will crawl back into the light.
I will stand before them and take back everything they stole from me!
