Su Musu’s words plunged Ye Ge into silence once more. For a moment, he didn't know what to say. In his heart, there was only self-reproach.
Ye Ge actually understood that the reason Su Musu spoke to him this way wasn't because she was blaming him or held any grudges; it was simply how she truly felt. Lately, Su Musu had endured a great deal, and her heart was heavy with bitterness. Yet, even in such circumstances, she knew she had to maintain an optimistic outlook; she absolutely could not face her sister with a mournful expression. That was simply out of the question! No matter how heartbroken she felt, she could only smile. She knew that if her own mood soured, it would affect her sister’s, and if her sister’s mood suffered, it would impact the baby. So, even if it meant forcing a smile, Su Musu had to remain a cheerful presence.
"Musu, don't worry. I will certainly treat you and your sister well. No matter what happens, even if your sister never forgives me, it doesn't matter. I will stay by your side for the rest of my life," Ye Ge promised. To Ye Ge, this statement carried more weight than any formal vow. No matter what happened, and no matter how they might reject him, he would never abandon them. These were things he had done, and as such, he had to take responsibility.
