Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 3090: Chapter 3088: Bai Ying

"Xiao Qi, you know someone as wonderful as Yingying, but you’re not treating her well. If one day she returns to her own world, you won’t be able to find her no matter how hard you try.

I don’t know if you can hear me now, but you can’t let her make that kind of choice, understand?"

"What I’m giving you now is water, but it’s also spiritual medicine. I hope it works for you.

If you could wake up sooner, treat her well; once the opportunity is lost, it won’t come again.

No one knows what the future holds, cherishing the present is the most important thing." Xue Ling hopes Xiao Qi won’t end up missing the chance with Nangong Beiying, so she says these words to him.

"What does it mean, going back to her own world?" Xiao Qi asks the white shadow beside him.

"She wasn’t originally from your time; she arrived here by a strange twist of fate. If the same opportunity arises again, she might leave here and return to her own world. That’s all there is to it; surely you can understand that?" The white shadow looks at Xiao Qi, thinking it should be easy to understand such straightforward words.

"It’s not that I don’t understand; it’s that she clearly belongs here, so why say she’s not from here?" That’s what puzzles him, right?

"You’ll have to wait until you’re better to ask her yourself. Treat her well; these years haven’t been easy for her. If I had known she felt so guilty, maybe I wouldn’t have taken the bullet for her back then. But if given another chance, I would still make the same choice, because I want her to live well." The white shadow doesn’t care how Xiao Qi feels about this, but speaks thoughts he’s long wanted to express yet never uttered.

"You know Yingying, then between you two..." Xiao Qi is stunned.

"We were colleagues, also lovers who never had the chance to declare our love.

I’m leaving now. Treat her well in the future. I’ve done my best to liberate you from your constraints; now I have to go. Wish you both happiness." The white shadow has settled a concern in his heart.

Knowing that she is living well, he feels relaxed and unburdened.

Had he known it would be like this, he would have come to terms with it sooner. But coming to terms doesn’t help because she hasn’t found her happiness, so he still can’t ease his mind.

Thus, even if he had figured it out previously, it wouldn’t make any difference, because to him, Nangong Beiying’s happiness is what he cares about most.

It’s like when he first read her file, his heart ached for her situation.

This is why he continued to watch over her silently in the days that followed, strictly overseeing her yet reluctant to leave her alone, so he kept her by his side.

He was originally planning to confess his love after completing that mission, but little did he know, that mission would mark the end of his life.

To say he has no regrets is impossible, but compared to letting her suffer injuries or lose her life, he would rather be the one to die, so he made the decision he most wanted deep within his heart.

He just didn’t expect her to grieve for so long, living in sorrow and guilt, unwilling to move on.

The white shadow doesn’t know if what he did was right or wrong, but he doesn’t want her to feel heartbroken, so Xiao Qi is the best choice.

Nangong Beiying’s heart has fallen, though even she might not realize this.

The white shadow looks toward the light. Yingying, goodbye. From now on, the person guarding you will not be me. May you continue to be happy.

As soon as the white shadow finishes speaking, his ethereal figure vanishes along with the light, leaving this world without the presence of the white shadow.
