Chapter 948: Cutting the Ties

Liu Sisi closed her eyes; it took her a good while before she reopened them, completely oblivious to the beads of blood trickling down over her mouth, nose, and eyes.

Zuo Xingyu watched her in silence, not bothering to bring it to her attention, but instead wrapped his arms tightly around her, resting his chin on top of her head as he tried to steady his own breathing before chuckling lightly and saying, "Yes, this is the ocean. Sisi, haven't you always wanted to see the ocean? This is the most beautiful ocean! But you, you are even more beautiful, more enchanting..."

"Really? I wouldn't have guessed, Big Brother Zuo, that you've learned to flatter people."

Although she couldn't see her own face, the continuous torment of illness over many days let her know her complexion couldn't possibly look good, yet Zuo Xingyu praised her to the skies, how could it not amuse her?

"It's true! Sisi, in my eyes, you've always been the most beautiful."
