Starlight Has No Past
Chapter 44 Part 2

It seemed even more unbearable when the words were coming out of Ruan Feiyan's mouth. Zhou Tingsheng squashed his growing anger, but his voice still sounded like burning fire: “She doesn't even know who you are. What the hell are you yelling at her? I'm the real murderer you're referring to.”
“You are not!”

She seemed to have a harder time accepting that fact than himself. She defended him: “It was just self-defense, involuntary manslaughter! After my dad died, my mom and I survived thanks to your family. My mom was willing to take the blame for you, it's all because we owe it to your family. But what right does that Hsu person have? If it wasn't for the fact that he wanted the heart, why would he push for my mom's death sentence? You think everyone in the world is as stupid as my mom that she'd agree to anything!”

Ruan Feiyan bit her lower lip: “He's the real murderer. His daughter's life was saved at the cost of my mom's life. His whole family is cursed.”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Zhou Tingsheng couldn't hold his anger in.  His voice had turned icy cold.
Ruan Feiyan shouted one more time: “I said— — Their whole family is— —”

The last word stopped in her throat, frozen by the chilling look in his eyes. Ruan Feiyan was disgusted with herself. But even now, she still cared very much of him. Even though she was woken up by nightmares numerous times and cautioned herself that the root of all the sin was him. She shouldn't treat him differently just because he supported and cared for her in the last ten years. Furthermore, she especially shouldn't have a crush on him just because the warmth he occasionally showed on his stern face……

When she was young and innocent, she lost both parents. Zhou Tingsheng became the only person she could rely on. Even if she knew the entire truth, she would rather find all the excuses for him and place all the blame to someone else. She would hide her sorrows and hate to present an innocent face in front of him.

But this man, the man she cared the most in her short life, was now using the most icy and hurtful tone: “Get out.”
She couldn't believe her ears: “What did you say?”
Zhou Tingsheng's voice was detached of any feeling: “Get out.”
After he repeated his command, his adam's apple slowly went up and down. He felt that he had used up all the strength he had gathered in the past ten years. It felt like all that strength wasn't enough to keep the scar in his heart from being pried open.

Ruan Feiyan ran out of his apartment with tears in her eyes. Zhou Tingsheng suddenly felt extremely exhausted, the air and lights felt like cold needles piercing into his flesh.

Five meters away, Ye Qiao shut herself inside her apartment which hadn't been occupied for quite a few days. The heater in the living room was broken. Her thin clothes couldn't keep the cold away, both her hands and feet were freezing cold. She huddled inside the only couch in the living room. This was the first time she regretted that she hadn't put in more furniture in her living room. The emptiness in the room made her unable to hide her loneliness.

The horror game which she had gone through already couldn't keep her interested. She played robotically…...until she threw down the controller in irritation. All she could hear was the mechanical clicking of the clock on the wall.

He hadn't shown up yet.
