Translator: 549690339

Mei’er was lying on the already cold body of Tu Tong, her eyes blurred by tears. Everything around her seemed to have drifted away, as she stroked the lengthy scar that stretched from his left cheek to his right rib, she remembered their past sweet moments.

It was this man’s first time coming to the Tianxiang Building, his fierce appearance even made the old regulars tremble, let alone the girls. Everyone tried to mask their fear with forced smiles, dreading that they would be chosen by him.

But she wasn’t scared, on the contrary, she felt a bit of heartache, because she could see the faint hurt in Tu Tong’s eyes caused by everyone’s gaze and suppressed fear.

Somehow, she found the courage to take a few steps forward, softly nestling in Tu Tong’s arms, and letting her warm breath caress his neck: “Sir, let Mei’er serve you.”

This act of seducing a patron was strictly forbidden in the Tianxiang Building, but that day, no other girl blamed her, because the frightening appearance of Tu Tong scared them all.

That was their first night together.

After undressing, she finally saw the long scar. It was like a long purple snake, covering the man’s body.

She gently touched the scar, asking with compassion: “Does it hurt?”

Tu Tong didn’t reply, he just held her beneath him.

The warm spring breeze came, Mei’er curled up in his embrace, like a lazy kitten, her little paw gently touched his long scar.

The man’s scar reminded Mei’er of her friend who had escaped, which made her feel a sense of familiarity.

Her friend refused to serve clients and was flogged by the old crone with a whip, leaving similar purple marks on her.

But back then, she was too young to stop the whipping or offer comfort. All she could do was sneak into her friend’s quilt in the evening to ask, “Does it hurt?” The tenderness of a woman can cause a man to fall.

He really liked Mei’er, so much so that he came every day. But it wasn’t until a whole month later that they had their first conversation.

“I’m Tu Tong.”

“Then Mei’er will call you Mr. Tu.”

Once they had decided on what they would call each other, they finally become more familiar. The man always boasted about his bravery, what kind of tasks he had accomplished, and how many enemies he had slain.

Mei’er always cooperated with surprise and admiration, gently reminding him to be careful.

Perhaps it was then, they both began to feel that the other was special.

Can all vows of eternal love really be false? Not really, at least when they were embracing each other, every word came from the heart.

But Tu Tong, after all, was not the universally strong man he claimed to be.

And Mei’er, she didn’t have the patience to wait that long.

Until half a year ago, when Tu Tong suddenly disappeared, Mei’er realized that he might be fed up.

After all, it had been three years.

Sometimes, feelings are just that fragile. When they are fresh and intense, you always believe in everlasting love, but when you get tired, all past touches are forgotten, and all you want to do is walk away.

New, young prostitutes come in batches every year. The fact that Mr. Tu had liked her for three years was indeed a long enough expression of affection. Mei’er tried to console herself in this way.

But deep down, the hatred erupted when Tu Tong disappeared from Tianxiang Building for a month. She wet her pillow with tears.

The next day, Mei’er was as seductive as always, flirting with her customers with affectionate eyes. But no one knew that she had already closed her heart.

Yesterday, a servant from Young Master Shen’s household came to choose a knee pillow. She was chosen because of her beautiful legs. But when she came out, she unexpectedly saw Tu Tong again.

He was carrying a huge sack, presumably for a new lover.

“What a damn man.” Mei’er thought with hatred. Since he is nothing but a client, why deceive me?

It was as if Heaven wanted to fulfill her wish. Without warning, he charged at them.

A few bodyguards immediately stepped forward, but they were easily sent flying by Tu Tong.

Then it was Young Master Shen’s servant’s turn. The first move broke Tu Tong’s hands, and the second one struck his chest.

This fierce and self-confident warrior died before Mei’er’s eyes.

Mei’er didn’t mourn. The tears she should have shed for this man had dried up on that cold night.

Young Master Shen’s servant acted as if he had done something insignificant, took Tu Tong’s bag, and took Mei’er out of the building.

Mei’er thought she would never shed a tear for this man again. But to her surprise, her makeup got ruined by tears once again.

She touched Tu Tong’s face, which was cold and pale but looked incredibly peaceful, just like when he was asleep, his features relaxed, making him look like an innocent child.

“Mr. Tu, Mei’er had some savings too. If you didn’t have enough money, you should have told me.”

The lover cooed softly, but he could no longer respond.

The scene before her eyes felt as if there were only two of them in the courtyard.

“Old Tu came to Tianxiang Building yesterday to redeem you.” Tang Luo looked at Mei’er’s sobbing figure and said softly.

No matter what, this was Tu Tong’s greatest wish. Although he was dead, as his landlord, Tang Luo felt it necessary to fulfill this wish.

But these words made Mei’er dizzy, she finally understood why Tu Tong suddenly rushed at them without warning and what was in the bag that the servant took.

Soft sobbing turned into loud weeping, it turned out that this man had died for her.

Seeing Mei’er in such a state, Hua Ji was also filled with sorrow, because he suddenly thought of Xing Yu, who had once made a love oath with him.

Love always begins with deceit, or at least it involves an element of it.

Hua Ji fell in love with Xing Yu at first sight, thinking she was particularly cute and approached her intentionally.

The naive girl suddenly became the center of someone’s attention. She was sweet when she called him “Brother Aji”.

Their affection for each other grew during their time together. Aji gave Xing Yu a bamboo bird, and Xing Yu gave Aji a handkerchief.

“Who embroiders little black pigs?” Aji questioned, poking Xing Yu’s head.

The girl blushed. She wanted to say that it was a pair of mandarin ducks.

Later, Aji was transferred to the Spirit Beast Garden. During his gloomiest time, Xing Yu would come to see him every night with a few buns, encouraging him to hang in there, to keep going, and promising that everything would get better.

Then Tang Luo appeared suddenly and took him to the Star Pavilion. The servant Aji became Manager Hua Ji who earned fifty thousand golds per year. Hua Ji felt that he had made a name for himself and thought about marrying Xing Yu when he was successful.

But today he realized that waiting for the right moment to expresses his love might be too late. Would the one he loved still be there waiting for him?

The greatest pain in life is always not what you can’t get, but the realization that you have let go of the best even after you’ve had it.

For half a year, Hua Ji in the Star Pavilion, never thought of going back. Even during the Chinese New Year, he spent it with Tu Tong in the pavilion.

Tu Tong was there for Mei’er, while he was there for Xing Yu.

But they never considered whether their unshaken love could be felt by the other party.

If you don’t express it and you don’t give any news, how can they continue to wait for you?

“Young Master.” Hua Ji tears streamed down his face.

“Hmm?”

“I miss Xing Yu.”

Tang Luo looked at Hua Ji with tears streaming down his face, sighed, patted his shoulder and said: “Don’t miss the right person, go..”
