Only his side profile was seen on the tablet screen. His exquisite but pale face was recorded on the video. They could see him singing as they saw his mouth moving and sounds recorded on the tablet were heard. The song he sang is entitled 'My heart is broken' [by Evanescence].

Lyrics of My Heart is Broken by Evanescence.

I pull away to face the pain

I close my eyes and drift away

Over the fear that I will never find

A way to heal my soul

And I will wander 'till the end of time

Torn away from you

My heart is broken

Sweet sleep, my dark angel

Deliver us from sorrow's hold

Or from my hard heart

I can't go on living this way

But I can't go back the way I came

Shamed of this fear that I will never find

A way to heal my soul

And I will wander 'till the end of time

Half a life without you

My heart is broken

Sweet sleep, my dark angel

Deliver us, change, open your eyes to the light

I denied it all so long, oh so long

Say goodbye, goodbye

My heart is broken

Sweet sleep, my dark angel

Deliver us

My heart is broken

Sweet sleep, my dark angel

Deliver us

My heart is broken

Sweet sleep, my dark angel

Deliver us from sorrow's hold

[A/n: Credits to the singer and composer of the song. The song is not mine.]

The song is about a brokenhearted person, who decided let go of everything because someone broke his heart. The music is slow and mellow, but the core of the music is sadness and misery of loss.

Wan Lengya's tears couldn't help but fall as he listened to that familiar voice singing with such emotions, eventually melting even his ice cold heart. That person in the video was his! The reason why his soul aches is because he lost him when he was already his and that it was him who let him go for a mirage of someone who can never be the same as his wife.

It was even during his wife's greatest sorrow. How could he not know? For someone like Wu Xue who loves music as much as he does, how could he let go of that person's hand in his darkness moment? Even leaving this person on his own in his despair. Only then did he finally realize why Wu Xue never looked at him once that day.

Wu Xue was afraid. He was horrified by the fact that he might or couldn't, give me the freedom I wanted, if he saw my face. He was anxious that he won't be able to control his emotions, his love for me and won't be able to let go.
