Chapter 95: Pure White in Memories
You once said my appearance made your world start to shine with vibrant colors.
You once said you would spend a lifetime interpreting your love for me.
You once said you didn't care about others' opinions as long as we were together.
You once occupied the softest place in my heart, leaving the most colorful mark in my pure and white youth.
As excellent as you are, you bend down to tie your shoes for me, and paint all night just because of a careless remark I made.
Once you were my warm sun, your warmth made me unable to extricate myself.
I thought we would be together forever, just like you said.
But... you still failed me.
You said you care about the gap in status, being in a wealthy and noble family is beyond your control.
But you don't know.
I have long been at a height where you can never catch up with me

Xiao Feng Xue
Three years ago, she had a falling out with her parents, and after a big argument, she angrily packed up her luggage and returned to the country alone.
Arbitrarily refusing all care and help from parents, shaking off the bodyguards behind him again and again.
Since childhood, she has been living in the Xiao family, with all the pampering and love focused on her. Like all princesses who yearn to leave their luxurious castles, she longs to break free from her gilded cage and experience new life.
She is curious about the ordinary people's life in TV series and yearns for such a simple life.
You can eat what you like on the street without worrying about your manners affecting your family's reputation.
It's better to attend classes in a school that may not have the most advanced facilities but is filled with love and warmth among classmates, rather than attending a prestigious academy where teachers and classmates put on fake smiles and flatter each other.
There are many things that can be done with diligence and hard work that cannot be accomplished with wealth and fame alone.
She abandoned all luxuries, holding a credit card with millions of dollars in it, but deliberately lived in a one-bedroom bungalow.
The princess turned into a commoner, and after the initial freshness wore off, she soon discovered many inconveniences. When she started feeling unable to adapt and wanted to return to her castle, Chu Yan Shuang appeared.
Their encounter was nothing new or accidental, nor did it have any heavenly timing or geographical advantages; it was just a clichéd plot that had been repeatedly performed in idol dramas.
On the rooftop of that ordinary high school, she was surrounded by a group of jealous little girls who cursed her with very dirty language and tore at her hair like mad.
At that time she was extremely frightened and had no idea how to resist.
As Xiao family's little princess, she had always been in contact with high-society ladies who were well-educated and gentle. When had she ever met such an unreasonable and violently fierce woman?
Then Chu Yan Sheng appeared, and with just a faint sentence "I'll take care of this girl", all the girls left in embarrassment.
Because he was the most famous school grass in that school, coming from a small and medium-sized entrepreneur family, he was already a very wealthy existence in that ordinary high school, with handsome and sunny looks and extraordinary talents, and was the dream of all girls at that time.
He descended with pure white wings on his back like an angel, gently wiping away the tears from her cheeks with a handkerchief, and telling her in a slow, gentle, and reassuring voice that she didn't have to be afraid, it was all over.
Perhaps in every girl's heart, there lives a boy like this: wearing a white shirt, white canvas shoes, deep blue jeans, and black hair. When he smiles, it's as warm and clean as sunshine. He'll appear before you at the moment you need him most, just like the Prince Charming in fairy tales, to rescue you from danger.
Chu Yan Sheng was such a young man, his warmth and the deep emotions in his eyes had her deeply entrapped and unable to extricate herself.
They soon fell in love, a story as passionate and sweet as those found in idol dramas.
Soon after, she met Zheng Biya, who was comparable to Chu Yan Sheng in terms of family background and appearance, and became best friends with the kind-hearted and friendly Zheng Biya.
The three of them stuck together every day, forming an enviable trio in that high school, even though many people thought her family background didn't match up to the other two and considered her a third wheel inserted between them.
Chu Yan Sheng is a very meticulous and caring guy who takes care of her in every possible way.
He is like the ideal boyfriend of all girls, gently tying her scarf and shoelaces for her. When she's tired, he quietly lends his shoulder for her to lean on. After late-night self-study sessions, he sends her home. When she sprains her ankle, he tenderly applies medicine and carries her to buy dessert.
He painted many portraits of her because he said he wanted to remember every expression of hers, so that when she was not by his side, he could take them out and look at them.
Zheng Biya is very considerate, gentle, elegant and beautiful. She has a mature personality and will take care of her like an older sister, teaching her how to learn and recognize the world around her.
At that time, Xiao Fengxue felt really satisfied and happy, it was a kind of happiness that she had never experienced as the daughter of a wealthy family.
She didn't want to break such a simple and warm friendship and love, so she didn't tell them her true identity, they all thought she was just the child of working-class origins.
And so it happened.
September 6th is Chu Yan Sheng's birthday
。
That grand and extraordinary banquet was like a carefully planned trap, meticulously calculating how to make her fall apart.
She still remembers how she went to the party with great joy.
Went to the most expensive and famous hair salon in the local area for styling, carefully dressing up.
She wants to tell people who care about her that her identity is not as bad as they imagined, and she can also keep up with their pace.
Little did she know, it would be a birthday party that shattered all her warmth and pushed her into endless darkness.
Chu Yan Song and Zheng Bi Ya officially announced that they are together!
As she watched the two of them exchange a deep and meaningful glance, she suddenly realized that many things had happened that she had never anticipated.
When a group of people raised their glasses in a toast, she laughed louder than anyone else and poured herself a full cup of wine.
The liquor slid down her throat, and no one knew she was really crying.
That was her first time drinking alcohol.
Finally, the young man who was her source of all warmth still smiled gently, with deep and passionate eyes.
Taking her good girlfriend's hand and walking in front of her, telling her that they have been together for a long time and will be engaged soon.
She only then realized that all the happiness was just an illusion, it was all her one-sided thoughts, everything was just her self-deception, she had been living in her own fabricated dreams all along.
Everyone cheered and congratulated the couple who were about to get engaged, their bright smiles filled with blessings made her feel like a joke every time she thought about it.
Seeing her completely immersed in her own thoughts, Emperor Liang furrowed his brow and wrapped his arms around her waist.
The cold wind was kept out by his chest, she withdrew from her memories and slowly pulled out a smile, pale and beautiful.
"It's okay, I'm fine."
