She silently looked at him for a few seconds, withdrew her hand, and said indifferently, "Ah Chen, I won't go with you."
"Why?"
"I have my responsibilities and mission."
"What if I ask you to abandon your mission and insist that you come with me?"
"…In my heart, the mission always comes first." Lan Keren stated firmly, her words deeply hurt him.
Tang Yuchen took a deep breath and asked her in a serious tone, "I'm asking you one last time, will you choose to come with me, or will you continue with your mission?"
Lan Keren was silent for a long time, and finally, she turned around, leaving him with a decisive back.
"Ah Chen, no one can make me abandon my mission."
She said this to him, and he knew that no matter what, he could not persuade her to turn back.
It was a road of no return. Knowing the likelihood of imminent death, she still chose to continue. He couldn't bear to see her die, begging her to come with him, but she disagreed.
