Love is as vast as the Milky Way, impossible to cross.

Chapter 171 She is gone

He didn't understand why Liu Shiyin would leave with her mother without a word, without any explanation or farewell.

He shook his head, trying to clear his mind.

He couldn't believe Liu Shiyin would leave him; their relationship was so deep, how could it end so easily?

He immediately drove to the places they had been together, hoping to find some clues and also hoping to find Liu Shiyin. However, no matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any trace of her.

The image of Liu Shiyin kept flashing through his mind; her smile, her voice, her gentleness all made his heart ache.

He simply couldn't understand why she had suddenly disappeared without a trace or any clue.

Exhausted, Huo Muchen returned to the Huo residence around midnight.

He lay in bed, looking at the black card Liu Shiyin had placed on the table, and an indescribable sorrow welled up in his heart.

Everything at this moment was telling him that Liu Shiyin had really left, left him, without any reason or cause.

"Mu Chen, I love you,"

Liu Shiyin's gentle and affectionate voice seemed to transcend time and space, softly drifting into Huo Muchen's dream.

He seemed to see Liu Shiyin's affectionate gaze and feel her sincere love.

"Mu Chen, I will never leave you,"

Immediately afterwards, Liu Shiyin threw herself into his arms and said with deep affection and firm determination:

Just as Huo Muchen was about to reach out and hug Liu Shiyin, the scene in his dream suddenly changed, and a sad expression appeared on Liu Shiyin's face.

"Goodbye, Mu Chen,"

She pushed Huo Muchen away and said softly, tears streaming down her face.

At that moment, Huo Muchen's heart felt like it was being gripped tightly by something, the pain making it hard to breathe. He suddenly opened his eyes and woke up from his dream.

Sweat soaked his clothes. He sat on the bed, panting heavily, as if he had just experienced a thrilling adventure.

Recalling the scene in his dream, Huo Muchen was filled with unease and anxiety. He didn't know what the dream meant, nor did he know where Liu Shiyin was now.

All he knew was that he couldn't lose her; he couldn't let her leave him like this.

Huo Muchen got up and walked to the window, gazing at the night sky. The stars shone brightly, but they couldn't illuminate the darkness in his heart.

In the morning, sunlight streamed through the office window and fell on Huo Muchen's face, but it failed to dispel the solemnity between his brows.

He sat at his desk, his brow furrowed, his eyes revealing a hint of pain and struggle, as if he were going through an inner storm.

"What's wrong? Did you have a fight with Shion?"

As Gu Heng entered the office, he immediately noticed Huo Muchen's unusual behavior.

He secretly guessed that, apart from the entanglement with Shiyin, it seemed hard to find any other reason that could make this chosen one of heaven so frowning.

Huo Muchen raised his head, a hint of helplessness and confusion in his eyes. Seeing Gu Heng's concerned gaze, he no longer concealed anything and spoke.

"She's gone,"

"What? You left? You broke up with her and kicked her out?"

Gu Heng was somewhat surprised. He had known Huo Muchen for many years and knew his personality and emotions well. Although the women he had dated in the past had all ended after a month or two, he could sense that this time he was absolutely serious about Liu Shiyin and had fallen in love with her. How could it have come to this?

"We didn't break up. We were fine this morning, but after the meeting, I couldn't reach her anymore. I arranged for people to check, but there's still no news. It's like she suddenly vanished from the face of the earth."

He gently touched his forehead and said in a low voice:
