Two years later, West Side Police Station Chief Inspector Qiu Ziqiang was assassinated. His body was wrapped in a sack and thrown at the door of the Police Station. It was already torn into pieces and unrecognizable. People speculated that it was done by West Side's new generation of business tycoon, Xiao Tsuyi, but due to lack of evidence, the Police Station had to give up on the matter. The matter became a hot topic in West Side. In the past two years, Xiao Tsuyi has been looking for many places non-stop. His figure appeared in various towns and villages, with a persistent look in his eyes. Finally, in a tile house in the countryside Hsinchu Village, he found Su Yau, who had not been seen for many years. She was making a fire in the yard to cook. She was a little thin, her skin was darker, and she looked a little haggard. Xiao Tsuyi stared straight at Su Yau who was making a fire and cooking. There was an indescribable excitement and joy in his eyes. His eyes widened slightly and his heartbeat accelerated. He had been looking for her for so long and finally found her. His lips trembled slightly. He wanted to call her, but he was a little hesitant. Xiao Tsuyi was about to step forward to recognize her, when a strong and dark man suddenly walked out of the inner room. He strode out with a simple smile on his face. He domineeringly snatched the firewood from Su Yau's hand, his movements were a little rough, and helped her to rest on the stool next to her, saying, "You take a break, I'll do this job." This scene made Xiao Tsuyi's legs suddenly feel like they were filled with lead, and he couldn't move. His eyes became dim and his heart was stabbed. She got married! This man seemed to love her very much. Trying his best to hold back the loss and sadness in his heart, he turned and left, his steps were a little heavy, and every step was very difficult. She is living so well now, he shouldn't disturb her peaceful life anymore, his eyes were filled with sadness. The man who made the fire put down the firewood in his hand, and brought a bucket of water from the well at the door, the bucket was shaking. The thin sole of his shoe, which was worn flat, was suddenly hit by something hard, he frowned, looked down, and saw that it was actually shining. "Brother Xu, what are you so happy about!" Su Yau looked at the happy man and asked happily, with a curious smile on his face.
"Su Yau, I found this at the door, it's for you." The man's hand opened to reveal a sparkling diamond necklace, glimmering in the sunlight and reflecting dazzling light, beautiful yet painfully familiar.
"He came, he found it..." Su Yau murmured to herself, a flicker of surprise crossing her eyes as her heartbeat quickened.
He had said that this necklace was one of a kind; who else could it belong to? Her hands trembled slightly as she picked up the necklace, tears shimmering in her eyes.
Her feet instinctively wanted to run outside, but a sudden hesitation in her heart made her stop abruptly.
She bit her lip, her brows furrowing. Hadn't she decided long ago to forget the past?
What was she still clinging to now? A hint of struggle flickered in her gaze.
Yet, thinking it over, this farewell might be the last time they would meet in this lifetime. Perhaps it was time to say goodbye and put an end to their story. Taking a deep breath, she seemed to make up her mind.
This thought banished the hesitation in Su Yau's heart. She turned and ran outside, her steps quickening as she dashed through the village, looking around anxiously.
Finally, under the willow tree at the village entrance, she spotted that long-missed figure, excitement shining in her eyes.
"Ziyi—" The voice seemed to come from a distant horizon, as if from another world, trembling with emotion.
Xiao Tsuyi slowly turned around, surprise flashing in his eyes as he gazed at the face that haunted his dreams. His heart surged; his lips quivered as he tried to speak but didn't know where to begin.
"Yau'er, do you still want to come back to West Side with me?" He knew he shouldn't ask such a question, yet he couldn't help himself, his gaze filled with anticipation and nervousness.
Su Yau shook her head, a hint of sadness in her eyes. After a long pause, she managed to utter two words: "I don't want to."
Xiao Tsuyi let out a self-deprecating laugh, the bitterness in his smile making Su Yau's heart ache. He said, "I know I shouldn't have come. You've married, and your husband treats you well. It must be far happier than the days spent by my side."
Husband? Su Yau furrowed her brows in shock, only realizing after a moment that he had mistaken Brother Xu, who helped her with boiling water, for her husband.
She hurriedly explained, "I haven't married. The reason I don't want to go back is that I don't want to face those painful memories. Also, I don't want to be an obstacle between you and Shen Tingyu."
Turning her face away, she spoke with a touch of sorrow, tears glistening in her eyes.
"It seems you indeed left because of my conversation with Shen Tingyu. Then you must have heard me say that I am your husband alone and will be for this lifetime. Perhaps I should have added one more thing: I love you."
Such a heartfelt confession left Su Yau in shock. Her body trembled slightly, tears of emotion shimmering in her eyes, yet she still shook her head. She lacked confidence in him—or perhaps in herself—her gaze revealing a hint of hesitation.
"In that case, I'll stay here in this small village with you. If you refuse to go back for the rest of your life, then I'll stay here with you for the rest of mine."
Xiao Tsuyi tightened his brows like a stubborn child and declared firmly, determination shining in his eyes.
In the next moment, without waiting for her response, he pulled her into his embrace, holding her tightly as if afraid she would disappear again.
Whether she wanted it or not, he was determined to make her his for life!
