Dong Xin Yan crouched there, picking up pieces of broken glass, too frantic, her hands trembling badly, and after a long ti, she still couldn’t pick up many pieces.
"Stop picking them up."
The deep, hoarse voice slowly rang out above her head, with a timbre so low it could pierce one’s heart.
Dong Xin Yan acted as if she hadn’t heard, continuing to pick up those fragnts, her head hanging lower and lower.
"Stop picking them up."
Gu Ningyi spoke again, his voice low and heavy, as if sothing was pressing down hard, making the surrounding air oppressive.
Dong Xin Yan’s hands trembled even more, almost unable to hold the piece she picked up, and when she reached out again, she accidentally touched a sharp corner with her fingertip, causing bright red blood to imdiately ooze out.
Dong Xin Yan couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
Even though the sound was very faint, Gu Ningyi clearly heard it, his dark eyes suddenly deepened, and he grabbed Dong Xin Yan’s wrist, pulling her up roughly with a slight force.
"I said, stop picking them up!"
This ti, the voice was deep and fierce, causing Dong Xin Yan’s body to shudder involuntarily, and she gazed at him blankly, both surprised and scared in her eyes.
The next instant, her wrist, held by Gu Ningyi, flinched as if it had been burnt, and she instinctively flung his hand away, retreating a few steps back, creating distance between them.
So things, she never needed to say, but every expression, every action, already conveyed the answer.
Gu Ningyi stood there, staring at her blankly, recalling the humble wish deep in his heart, bitterness spreading uncontrollably, like swallowing a bitter gourd.
He knew he couldn’t bla her for anything, that she didn’t love him wasn’t her fault. It’s just that he realized it too late, too tardily, even though fate allowed him to et her first, he foolishly missed it.
The lody of Little Luck involuntarily echoed in his ears, so beautiful, yet so poignant.
eting you, how lucky
But I’ve lost the right to cry for you
A step late, and it’s already worlds apart.
He once went alone to the cinema on a certain night, watching the movie thed around this song, everything happening in it, scene by scene, seed just like his past with Dong Xin Yan.
It’s just... the male lead in it was luckier than him, at least, the female lead loved him, at least, he realized it earlier than he did, at least, they eventually t.
In the silent night, in the empty cinema, he found himself uncontrollably with tears wetting his eyes.
Even with her head lowered, Dong Xin Yan could feel Gu Ningyi’s gaze tightly fixed on her, her back gradually stiffening, her body slowly growing cold.
His confession, without any warning, caught her off guard, leaving her completely flustered.
But she knew, at this mont, she must stay calm, no matter what, she had to calm herself down, only by staying calm, could she handle the situation in front of her properly.
Dong Xin Yan’s hands, hanging at her sides, clenched tightly, she took several deep breaths, carefully deliberating her words, closed her eyes briefly, and with her red lips slowly parting, she uttered in a low voice, word by word, "Mr. Gu, I’m sorry, I don’t..."
"Ha."
Before Dong Xin Yan could finish her words of rejection, she suddenly heard Gu Ningyi’s cold sneer, and she paused, involuntarily looking up at him.
