That evening, back at the hotel, Nanxi first went to see her father and mother. She had a long chat with her mom. Although her mother didn’t respond, Nanxi felt that she understood!
When she ca out of the room, Lu Yinchu was waiting for her in the corridor. She walked over and hugged him, murmuring his na. Lu Yinchu hugged her back, "What’s the matter?"
Nanxi said, "By trying hard not to care, I once thought my mom would get better. But seeing her now, breaks my heart. It hurts so much!"
Lu Yinchu sighed, "Don’t worry, Nanxi. You have to believe that there are real miracles in this world. We’ve already witnessed so many, haven’t we? Believe that this ti, a miracle will happen again!"
Nanxi pulled her little head from his arms, her bright eyes staring into his, and she nodded fiercely!
Lu Yinchu kissed her on the lips and held her tight again. "Nanxi, don’t dwell on the past or fear the future. Just try hard to live in the present, cherish the present, rember this mont. Nothing else matters more than this, understand?"
Nanxi nodded fiercely again!
"Lu Yinchu, do you know what? You’re a philosopher!"
Nanxi tiptoed to kiss him, breathing in the scent of his lips. Her heart was utterly intoxicated. She loved this man deeply!
There was nothing about this man that she didn’t love!
As ti went on, the more she saw how wonderful he was. No matter how much or deep she loved him, it never seed enough!
There really was such a man in this world, so perfect that it left her at a loss!
"Lu Yinchu, there’s sothing I’ve been wanting to ask you!"
"Hmm?" The man kissed her ear with an affectionate tone.
"Why did you persist? I an, when you learned I was Weihuan’s girlfriend and given the awkward relationship between you two, why did you insist? Were you not afraid that it might all co to nothing?"
The man chuckled, pulling her closer into his arms. He said, "Silly girl, compared to that, what I feared more was seeing you happy in the future, but without in your life."
"..." Nanxi was taken aback, when she looked up at him, she was silenced by his kiss!
...
In the room, Li Weihuan craved a cigarette and wanted to go out to buy so. As he opened the door, he saw a man kissing a woman passionately in the corridor. While they exchanged kisses, they retreated back into the room!
The loud crash of the door closing shattered the silent atmosphere, separating them into two worlds!
Li Weihuan took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. He closed the door and strolled out, like a casual pedestrian heading towards the elevator!
As the door to an elevator opened, Li Weihuan froze. When turned around, he saw a figure in a white knee-length skirt coming into view. It was Lun Ying.
Their eyes t in the air. Both of them were taken aback!
Just as Lun Ying was about to turn and head back to her room, Li Weihuan called out to her, "Wait a second!"
Lun Ying halted, her back towards him. Li Weihuan furrowed his brows and spoke, "Can we talk?"
...
Li Weihuan bought a pack of cigarettes at the store outside the hotel without checking the brand. When he smoked, brand didn’t matter as it was rely a tool for distraction!
Lun Ying waited for him under a streetlamp!
"Let’s go for a night snack. It’s a bit odd standing here."
Lun Ying glanced at him and nodded!
They went to a late-night snack shop and ordered so food with unmorable nas. Li Weihuan suggested, "Let’s eat and talk!"
Lun Ying lifted her glass of juice and took a sip, "Sure!"
Li Weihuan said, "Jiajia, I don’t know how to say it. You’ve been ignoring lately. I’ve been guessing the reason in my mind, but I hope it’s not what I think it is!"
After listening, Lun Ying suddenly laughed. She said, "Perhaps, it’s exactly what you think!"
"..." Li Weihuan was surprised by Lun Ying’s words and stayed quiet for a mont, "Jiajia, I..."
"I know, you don’t like ! I also know that there’s no possibility between us. I know all of this!" Lun Ying’s eyes trembled as she started to speak. She didn’t look at Li weihuan, but stared at the glass of juice in her hands, her eyes were pitch black, impenetrably deep!
"The other day, I returned to the hotel after inspecting the room and was about to pour myself a glass of water in the pantry when Sister Muyun called . She ntioned that you and Yi Mu got married! I held a cup in one hand and the phone in the other. The water overflowed and scalded my hand before falling to the floor, it then scalded my foot as well. The colleague beside was startled and quickly asked what happened and if I was hurt! I said I wasn’t, really I wasn’t hurt! Compared to the pain in my heart, how can these scalds possibly compare?"
"Later on, the Doctor ca by. He looked at my blisters and asked what happened? I looked up at him and said Doctor, Weihuan is married! I smiled and told him, you’re married!" Lun Ying continued to look down, her eyes were moist, but there were no more tears to cry. She had exhausted them all in the previous days!
"Actually, I do know that you and Yi Mu are the best match. She’s a good girl and everyone around you agrees for her to be your significant other. It’s really the most suitable match! I had predicated this outco, which was why I left ten years ago. However, it still hurts to see you and Yi Mu officially married. I was heartbroken, angry, and in disarray..." Lun Ying sighed, "Weihuan, you don’t have to care about . I’m the one who’s sulking and sooner or later I will be alright! Not all love in the world leads to perfect endings, especially when you don’t love !"
...
In fact, ever since Nanxi left, Li Weihuan thought he wouldn’t love anyone else!
Whether it’s Lun Ying or Yi Mu, there seed to be no difference. He didn’t dislike them, there was a bit of like, guilt, even pity, but there was no love!
He chose Yi Mu because she was the right one. At least he wouldn’t be tired of battling as he had done before; he was tired!
Even though he also admitted that for a long ti in the past, he had had a special feeling for Lun Ying!
But that feeling was not strong enough to give him the courage to fight it all over again!
Lun Ying left without taking a bite of the late-night snack. Li Weihuan sat there, looking through the glass at Lun Ying’s figure. In the distance, fireworks lit up the sky, then little by little, they faded away. His heart suddenly felt a bit empty.
He quickly paid the bill and left. As he walked under the streetlights, he saw his shadow stretching longer and longer. He stopped, took out the cigarettes he had bought earlier, and started chain-smoking!
He didn’t know when his smoking addiction grew so strong. Many tis, he smoked because of Nanxi, but this ti, it was for Lun Ying!
