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

Chapter 229 She longed to push through the crowd and embrace him.

The moment she saw Huo Muchen, her heart felt as if it had been gripped by a tremendous force, and it stopped beating instantly.

Her mind kept replaying their sweet memories, those scenes of laughter and affection.

She longed to push through the crowd and embrace him. A selfish thought also flashed through her mind for a moment: she hoped that Huo Muchen could feel the same way she did, filled with longing and reluctance to part with her.

However, what she saw was the indifference and disgust in Huo Muchen's eyes. His gaze was like ice and snow in the dead of winter, cold and piercing. At that moment, her heart felt as if it had been struck hard, like raindrops falling on hard ground, shattering into pieces, causing her excruciating pain.

Liu Shiyin bit her lower lip tightly, trying to stop herself from crying, but tears flowed out like a flood.

She hugged herself tightly, as if seeking warmth and comfort, but in the empty car, there was no sound except for her own sobs.

"Sister Shishi, the event doesn't start until tonight. Let's go back and rest first. We'll come back to clean up after they're done tonight."

Li Qingyou opened the car door and suggested softly. She noticed that Liu Shiyin's eyes were red, obviously she had just cried, and she couldn't help but feel anxious.

"What's wrong, Sister Shishi? Is something bothering you?"

Li Qingyou got into the driver's seat and turned around to ask with concern.

Liu Shiyin gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, trying her best to appear calm:

"It's nothing, Xiaoyou, I'm just a little tired. Let's go back."

She didn't want Li Qingyou to worry, and she didn't want her emotions to affect her.

Although Li Qingyou felt a little confused, she didn't press the matter further. She understood that Liu Shiyin might need some time to calm down, so she started the car and drove Liu Shiyin back to her residence.

"Sister Shishi, why don't you go upstairs and rest? I'm going home for a bit. The weather doesn't look too good. Remember to lock the doors and windows when you get back."

The clouds in the sky resembled surging waves, layer upon layer, subtly revealing an ominous aura.

Li Qingyou gazed at the sky, which was gradually turning from clear to cloudy, a faint worry showing between her brows. She spoke with concern to Liu Shiyin, who looked slightly tired beside her.

Liu Shiyin nodded gently and said softly:

"Xiaoyou, please be careful on the road and remember to drive slowly."

"Oh, I see."

Li Qingyou smiled and nodded, then started the car and drove off slowly.

The car gradually drove away, turned the corner, and disappeared from sight. Only then did Liu Shiyin turn around and slowly walk upstairs.

After Liu Shiyin went upstairs, the already oppressive atmosphere seemed to become even more so. She entered her room, gently closed the door, and a faint silence spread out.

Before long, the sound of pattering rain could be heard outside, starting as a faint drizzle and gradually becoming more frequent.

She lay in bed, closed her eyes, and tried to calm herself down, but the sound of the rain seemed to have a magical power, constantly pounding against the window and knocking on her heart.

Each raindrop felt like a heavy stone falling on her heart, making her increasingly uneasy.

She opened her eyes and looked out the window. The sky had completely darkened, with thick, dark clouds that seemed poised to swallow the entire world.

The rain, like fine silver threads, fell densely from the sky, shrouding the whole world in a hazy mist.
