Mu Yiliang trembled all over, but from his words, she realized something.
"Was it you? His failure, was it caused by you?"
He silently curled his lips: "I'm glad you figured it out. It's a pity Nie Qing was useless and let him escape; I had intended for him to die!"
"But... why..." she bit her lip, unable to suppress her trembling.
"Because I'm jealous of him. Does that answer satisfy you?" His tone was grim, "What, does it pain you?"
Mu Yiliang closed her eyes, and large teardrops followed.
She couldn't remember how long it had been since she last cried; to her, crying was a weak and useless reaction, but at this moment, she couldn't control the tears from falling.
Turns out Ye Moran's fate also indirectly had to do with her.
As for Yan Sijue, neither Nie Qing nor Ye Moran were on good terms with him, but he chose to cooperate with Nie Qing... both to save her and to attack Ye Moran.
