Along the way, she couldn't help but imagine what the house would look like, hoping to provide her mother with a better living environment.
After walking for a while, they arrived at the house. Liu Shiyin looked up and saw a simple yet elegant courtyard.
The courtyard was shaded by green trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers, like a paradise. She walked into the courtyard, carefully looking around at the surroundings, and felt increasingly satisfied.
The house was spacious and bright inside, with complete facilities. Liu Shiyin could imagine her mother living here, and her heart was filled with anticipation.
Liu Shiyin was satisfied and decided to stay there. She asked the landlord about the price and, finding it reasonable, booked the place on the spot.
In the evening, Liu Shiyin and her mother sat together in the courtyard of the guesthouse, enjoying the peaceful night. As the night deepened, everything outside the window was quiet, with only the occasional chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves.
Liu Shiyin gently tucked the blanket around her mother to make sure she slept soundly. She then lay down on the bed herself, closed her eyes, and prepared to drift off to sleep.
However, despite being exhausted from moving and taking care of her mother during the day, Huo Muchen's image would always involuntarily appear in her mind when the night was quiet.
Liu Shiyin lay on the bed, her heart aching, the pain almost making it hard for her to breathe.
She tried to suppress her tears, but the pain in her heart was like a flood that had burst its banks, unstoppable.
Huo Muchen's image lingered in her mind; that unforgettable love was etched deeply into her heart like a brand.
Her heart ached as if it were being torn apart; every memory felt like a sharp blade cutting into her heart.
Liu Shiyin tried various methods to fall asleep, but no matter how hard she tried, the pain and longing followed her like a shadow, making it impossible for her to sleep.
Throughout the long night, she could only bear this pain alone.
Time passed by like flowing water, but Huo Muchen still had not received any news from Liu Shiyin.
His initial anxiety and worry gradually turned into anger and disappointment.
He could never understand why Liu Shiyin would be so heartless as to refuse to give him even a simple message.
Her departure was like the brightest star in the night sky suddenly going out, plunging Huo Muchen's world into darkness.
Huo Muchen once thought their love was as solid as a rock, but unexpectedly, everything seemed so fragile in the face of Liu Shiyin's departure.
He tried to find out why she left, but he couldn't figure out what she was thinking no matter what.
Liu Shiyin's departure was like an invisible knife, piercing deep into his heart and causing him unbearable pain.
Since Liu Shiyin left, Huo Muchen has become utterly despondent. He spends his days drowning his sorrows in alcohol, trying to numb his senses and forget the endless pain.
His eyes became empty and lost, as if he had lost his soul.
He began to doubt himself, to doubt his former beliefs and convictions. He couldn't understand why the woman he once loved so deeply would leave him so cruelly.
He also began to blame himself, believing that he must have done something wrong to make Liu Shiyin leave him. His heart was filled with endless pain and self-blame, as if swallowed by endless darkness.
Even amidst such pain and despair, Huo Muchen could not let go of his longing for Liu Shiyin.
His heart was filled with longing and affection for her, as if her departure was only temporary and that one day she would return to his side.
He firmly believes that one day in the future, they will meet again and rekindle the flame of their once deep love.
