“Zoe…”
Turning around, I saw Lance.
I was somewhat startled.
The person whom I thought I would never see again in my life suddenly appeareit in front of me.
“Why did you do this?”

“Lance, in the past, I was the one who couldn’t let it go. You didn’t have to risk your life for our relationship, which was meaningless.” Lance looked at me, his eyes filled with deep affection. “No! You are not alone. I was too cowardly to admit my feelings for you.” Lance pursed his lips and tremulously uttered that sentence.
“Zoe, I loved you”
My body
stiffened for a moment, and after a while, I coldly told him the truth,
“It’s too late. We all died.
“It doesn’t matter anymore. V
We are both dead, aren’t we?”
Thinking about the entanglement the King of Hell mentioned, I became even more resolute.
“Let the past be in the past. Let’s go for the next life. We owe each other nothing
Lance remained silent for a long time before saying in a hesitant tone, “But it was you who said you liked me first.”
I smiled faintly and said, “In the past, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have let our relationship change, so I chose to end it all with death.”
The air fell silent, and the King of Hell muttered, “Love is hard to break and obsession is hard to dissipate, but everything lies within a single thought.
“You are dead, so the past should be left in the past. There is no need to pursue.

I looked at the King of Hell and asked sincerely, “How can I bring an end to this karmic relationship?”
His eyes were indifferent.
“There is only one way. Finish the soup, but the excruciating pain is unbearable.”
Without hesitation, I finished the soup.
Afterward, I walked onto the bridge without looking; back
“Lance, I wish we will never see each other apain in the next life.”
