Xi Siwei’s pair of pitch-black eyes stared at Lou Xi, very profound, as if he wanted to see through Lou Xi completely inside out.

But clearly Lou Xi’s gaze was so clear, and yet Xi Siwei still could not understand what this girl in front of him was thinking. She seemed as if she was thinking about many things, or perhaps nothing at all.

Clearly, she was a very simple girl, but in front of him, she raised all her defenses.

This landed an unprecedented blow to Xi Siwei’s heart.

Is it because he can’t compare to Qin Mobai, or is it something else that makes Lou Xi follow Qin Mobai so devotedly?

"Mo Xi came to the Capital earlier, and I chatted with her for a while." Lou Xi maintained a calm appearance, breezy and carefree, "She also asked me, she said Mo Bai is gone, said I’m still so young, will I ever fall for someone else again."

Xi Siwei became slightly tense, anxious to hear Lou Xi’s answer, in the long days ahead, will Lou Xi ever fall for someone else?

"I told Mo Xi," Lou Xi lifted her head, meeting Xi Siwei’s eyes that seemed to bear an earnest inquiry, "I will never love anyone else as I loved Mo Bai, loving him has exhausted all my energy, my entire heart belongs to him. This place..."

Lou Xi pointed to where her heart was, "this place can never hold anyone else."

At that moment, in the dim setting, Lou Xi saw the sadness deep in Xi Siwei’s eyes.

Lou Xi did not know if Xi Siwei truly liked her, or if it was because she was Qin Mobai’s wife, and he wanted everything Qin Mobai had.

"What exactly makes me inferior to him?"

"Xi Siwei, it’s not a matter of being inferior or not. You are also great, successful in your career, handsome and elegant, but you weren’t the right person at the right time, so I won’t like you. My love for Qin Mobai is a lifelong affair." Lou Xi said heavily.

Liking someone is not wrong, the thought is sincere.

But as Lou Xi said, someone showing up at the wrong time as the wrong person cannot be remembered at heart.

The only thing Lou Xi could say to Xi Siwei was sorry, and sorry again.

But...

"But if because of liking me, you did something to harm Mo Bai, don’t just expect me not to like you, I would resent you, hate you."

"He’s already dead, why do you persist in this obstinacy?"

"In my heart, he’s always alive."

After Lou Xi said these words, she met Xi Siwei’s gaze.

It was a confrontation, unyielding on either side.

"Xi Siwei, I just want to ask you one question, did you have anything to do with Mo Bai getting shot?"

It’s said that when facing a true love, one cannot bear to speak a lie.

Lou Xi wanted to gamble, to see if Xi Siwei would tell her the truth.

Xi Siwei was silent for a moment, then said. "Qin Mobai is dead, I’m very happy."

Hearing this, Lou Xi’s hand tightly grasped the corner of her clothes, how could he feel happy! How could he!

"But about the gunman, I don’t know, no matter how much I hate Qin Mobai, he was still my cousin, I wouldn’t lay a hand on him." Xi Siwei spoke very sincerely, "He’s made quite a few enemies over the years, who knows which opponent wanted him dead?"

"But you clearly told me that day, you wanted to kill him!" It was precisely because of Xi Siwei’s words that Lou Xi decided to go to Qing City, only to witness the situation there upon arrival.

Lou Xi asked where Qin Mobai’s bodyguards had gone, Su Lin said it was arranged by Qin Mobai himself, if he took so many bodyguards with him, the workers would think he was not there for negotiations but for suppression, which led to the situation at that time.
