Chapter 1572: Chapter 1577: After This Farewell, He Will No Longer Be The Same, Part 3
"Shushu will pick up Xiao Huo, right?" Lan Liehuo was in tears himself, gripping her hand tightly.
Ye Yingsu nodded forcefully, but she knew, this goodbye meant that the man she knew was forever altered.
Ye Yingsu’s phone rang, it was Ye Qi calling her downstairs.
She wiped her tears dry, urging Lan Liehuo to eat breakfast, but he shook his head, murmuring, "I can’t eat."
Ye Yingsu’s chopsticks trembled. This was the first time since his return that he had refused to eat.
With one hand holding Lan Liehuo’s and the other carrying his suitcase, they left their home. Ever since they stepped outside, Lan Liehuo had become silent, not saying a single word regardless of what she said to him, he sat there, head bowed.
Finally, he lifted his head, his eyes red and swollen, he asked her, "When can I come back?"
Ye Yingsu didn’t know how to answer, because once he left, he could never come back.
At the airport, Ye Yingsu saw him off at the boarding gate, reminding him, "When you get there, remember to behave well, eat your meals on time..."
"Will you come for me sooner if I behave?" Lan Liehuo looked at her, desperation evident in his gaze. Ye Yingsu’s lips trembled, struggling to form words as he pleaded, almost begging, "Don’t abandon me, I beg you, don’t leave me behind. Xiao Huo doesn’t want to go, doesn’t want to leave Shushu..."
Quickly wiping away the tears that had fallen on her face, Ye Yingsu said, "You need to behave well... I will come to see you."
"No, don’t look at me, don’t send me away..." Lan Liehuo suddenly hugged her tightly, as if wishing to merge her into his being.
"It’s almost time, you should board the plane now." Ye Qi urged.
Ye Yingsu forcefully pushed him away, Lan Liehuo stared at her in shock, she took one last look at him, before turning around abruptly, and walking away.
Watching her retreating figure, Lan Liehuo suddenly started crying, he yelled at her, "You promised me, you said you wouldn’t leave me behind... you promised... I’ve behaved so well, why don’t you want me anymore..."
Ye Yingsu was by now sobbing uncontrollably, she dared not look back, for fear of losing her resolve...
"If you were going to leave me, why did you bring me home... Shushu, don’t leave me... Don’t..." Lan Liehuo suddenly bolted towards her, only for the bodyguards to intercept him and drag him towards the boarding gate.
"I’ll be good! I’ll be so good! Shushu... Please visit me... You must visit me..." Lan Liehuo’s cries were heart-wrenching.
Ye Yingsu abruptly stopped, turning towards him, just in time to see Lan Liehuo being dragged into the boarding gate. She regretted it, she did not want to let him go anymore...
"Xiao Huo!"
Ye Yingsu tried to rush after him, only to be stopped by the bodyguards...
Hearing Ye Qi’s report, Beiming Han finally relaxed. He knew it was a cruel thing to do, but he cannot stand to see Ye Yingsu in danger because of Lan Liehuo.
Ye Yingsu returned to her apartment, reminders of the life she and Lan Liehuo shared were scattered everywhere. It seemed as if all she had to do was look up to see Lan Liehuo there, telling her he was hungry.
Ye Yingsu sat down on the couch, Lan Liehuo’s favorite spot. He said sitting there meant gazing into her face, and that he loved looking at her.
Ye Yingsu sat there, not moving for a whole two hours...
Until, a news notification popped up on her phone.
After one glance, she couldn’t tear her eyes away. She swiftly grabbed her phone...
