Chapter 245 The Only Thought
Li Tingmo glanced at them indifferently, and then said coldly: "Go ahead if you want to pay your respects, and leave as soon as you're done."

Bian Yue didn't say anything, just nodded to Li Tingmo, and walked towards the center of the mourning hall.

The atmosphere in the hall was desolate and cold, unlike what Bian Yue remembered. Li Siheng was gone, and for Bian Yue, the last bit of affection she had for the Li family was about to be stripped away.

This worship was the end of all emotions. From now on, there was only irreconcilable hatred between her and the Li family.

Bian Yue held incense and candles in her hands and looked at Li Siheng's portrait. Just one glance and her heart ached, and she lowered her eyes in panic.

She paid tribute to Li Siheng's portrait with a very solemn attitude.

On the side, Li Tingmo watched this scene, and some past events came to his mind.

Although it was all a show, he didn't know if it was because of the scene that brought back some unspeakable emotions. He felt complicated and tried to say in a cold voice: "Okay, since you have seen it, you can leave now, right?"

"I'll leave now, don't worry." Bian Yue lit the incense and candles and turned around calmly.

She walked towards Shen Jinci, took his arm, and said her final goodbye to Li Tingmo, "My condolences."

Shen Jinci looked at Bian Yue's pale and calm face. He held her hand in his calmly. His jade-like face was cold but gentle.

Li Tingmo suddenly called her with a gloomy face, "Wait a minute!"

"Is there anything I can do for you?" Bian Yue asked calmly.

"I don't have anything to say to you," Li Tingmo walked towards the two of them. He hesitated a little, raised his eyes to look at Shen Jinci, and softened his tone: "Mr. Shen, can I talk to you for a moment?"

Shen Jinci looked at Bian Yue, and only when she nodded did he say coldly, "Okay."

Li Tingmo showed a look of joy. He made a "please" gesture to Shen Jinci, and the two of them walked towards the side hall, one in front and one behind.

Bian Yue stood where she was and turned her gaze to Li Siheng again. For some reason, the coldness in her heart became even greater.

"Li Siheng," Bian Yue said softly, with a hoarse voice, "Are you really dead? Why do I still feel that all this is so unreal."

The moment the words fell, the sound of high heels came from behind.

Bian Yue turned around and saw Su Youxue.

The two haven't seen each other for a long time. Bian Yue heard that Su Youxue's new drama was a great success, but she did not participate in any offline activities and was almost in a state of retirement.

Those resources that everyone is scrambling to get may be nothing to Su Youxue now.

At this moment, she walked in from outside in a white dress, and the sunlight fell on her body, casting a light halo on her.

Seeing Bian Yue, she smiled gently and said, "Hello, Miss Bian."

Bian Yue felt that Su Youxue had changed a lot, but this change was too heavy and painful for a single person.

Bian Yue frowned at her and couldn't help but said, "Miss Su, you still have to take care of your health."

Su Youxue still smiled. She placed the flowers she had prepared in front of Li Siheng's portrait, burned incense carefully, and then said, "Don't worry, Miss Bian, I won't commit suicide. Li Siheng doesn't love me, and if I die for him, it would make me look self-righteous."

Bian Yue didn't know what to say. At this moment, words of comfort were pale.

"In fact, I had guessed this day a long time ago. When Mr. Li asked me to leave the Li family, I knew he didn't have much time left." Su Youxue turned and looked at Bian Yue with a dark look in her eyes. "Miss Bian, I used to be very jealous of you. Out of hatred and jealousy towards you, I even caused you a lot of trouble, but now..."

Her smile faded a little, and her eyes became more complicated. "Now, Si Heng is gone. I am very glad that you are still alive. Because you are alive, I have some thoughts about you."

Bian Yue was stunned for a moment before repeating softly, "Nianxiang?"

"You are the person Si Heng loves most in this world. I know it sounds ridiculous for me to say this, but it is true. Si Heng seems gentle, but he is actually heartless in his bones. However, he is the only one who is sincere to you."

Su Youxue's eyes were slightly red, and she smiled and said, "He was planning for you until his death, so now, I will protect you for him. This is what I want."

Reason told Bian Yue that she should reject Su Youxue sternly and draw a clear line between them. Many entanglements were unnecessary from the beginning.

But there was an idea lingering in Bian Yue's mind, and this idea clearly told Bian Yue that if she rejected Su Youxue, the latter might really not be able to survive.

So Bian Yue said: "Don't worry, I will be fine. Shen Jinci will protect me well. I am safe, so you must live in peace as well."

Su Youxue just smiled, her eyes became more complicated. She looked at Bian Yue, made a goodbye gesture, and walked out.

Her figure disappeared in the sunlight, and Bian Yue felt it was dazzling.

She withdrew her gaze, but saw Tang Yuwei at the fence on the second floor.

The two of them never had any close contact with each other again after that slap.

But now, Tang Yuwei looked at her with tears all over her face.

Bian Yue looked up and they looked at each other.

After a moment, Bian Yue said slowly: "Please accept my condolences."

Tang Yuwei burst into tears. She paused and suddenly went downstairs.

She rushed to Bian Yue and held her hand before she could react.

The woman who had been elegant and beautiful all her life was extremely embarrassed at this moment. She cried, "Bian Yue, I am sorry for you. I am sorry that your auntie is not good enough to you. I am sorry."

"You never treated me badly in the past." Bian Yue looked at her like this, frowning deeply. She said slowly, "Li Tingmo's decision was not something you and Si Heng could go against at that time. I know who was the source of all this, and I won't blame you. We don't owe each other anything."

Tang Yuwei stared at Bian Yue in a daze, tears still flowing. She said, "I know, I don't expect you to treat me as a relative. I am already very happy to hear you say this, Bian Yue, I am really very happy."

Bian Yue calmly let go of Tang Yuwei's hand. Her sadness was real. As for the sudden guilt, was it because of Li Siheng's death, which made her want to atone as much as possible, or for other reasons? Bian Yue didn't want to pursue it.

She took out a handkerchief from her bag, handed it to Tang Yuwei, and said softly, "My condolences."

This was the scene that Li Tingmo and Shen Jinci saw when they turned back.

Shen Jinci's face turned grim, and he quickly walked towards Bian Yue, took Bian Yue's hand, frowned and checked her, and said in a cold voice: "Are you hurt?"

"She didn't hurt me." Bian Yue shook her head, looking at Shen Jinci's nervous expression, she couldn't help but smile, "I'm not a little white rabbit."

Shen Jinci didn't say anything. The wrinkles between his brows relaxed. He looked at Bian Yue with a gentle tone, as if he had breathed a sigh of relief. "Let's go, let's go home."
