But no one had a choice.
This peaceful world had been hard-won. Everyone was busy with post-apocalyptic reconstruction, rejoicing for the new lives being born.
No one wanted to return to the dark, hopeless days of the past.
Duan Qianyu lowered her eyes, unable to bear it.
If it weren't for Li Xingye, they wouldn't have dared to even imagine the life they had now.
But now, they had to sacrifice Li Xingye for the hope of a new life.
What made it even harder was that, having been with Li Xingye for so long, she knew better than anyone that he wouldn't refuse.
'But should one person have to sacrifice themselves for the sake of a group?'
'Duan Qianyu knew she was overthinking things, but she couldn't help but feel like an ungrateful wretch. She didn't even dare to look Li Xingye in the eye.'
Unexpectedly, after hearing all this, Li Xingye let out a soft laugh.
"Is that all? I thought it was something serious."
Duan Qianyu and Gu Peijun stared blankly at the smiling Li Xingye.
