Unknowingly, I found myself still savoring the piece of candy that had just been handed to me. Initially, I thought about tossing it aside, but perhaps due to a distraction that interrupted my train of thought, it remained in my mouth. If I hesitated any longer, it would have melted away completely.
However, keeping it in my mouth didn’t feel like a loss. After all, it was given to me by someone else, and if I didn’t mention it, no one would notice. Deep down, I felt a sense of joy. Although his words had been somewhat harsh, the fact that he maintained this habit was a source of happiness for me.
The candy he had just given me was fruit-flavored and from my favorite brand. I was surprised that after all these years, he hadn’t forgotten this habit of mine. Perhaps it was because my own habits hadn’t changed much over the years; maybe I had deliberately held onto this habit, or perhaps he had done the same. That’s why when we met today, our two habits coincidentally merged so perfectly.
Yet, I couldn’t shake off the feeling that something was amiss about what had just transpired. It felt as if I hadn’t expressed myself well enough, and I even wondered if my words had been a bit excessive. After all, we hadn’t seen each other in years, and to start off our reunion on such an unpleasant note felt somewhat impolite.
The things I said earlier seemed petty; the more I spoke like that, the more it revealed how much I cared about him. If only I could have acted with more grace, then perhaps I would have moved on from those feelings long ago. Suddenly, I realized that my earlier behavior had indeed been a bit excessive. Even if I had strong feelings for him, I should still present myself as mature and composed.
After all, I was already working and doing a job that I loved very much. No matter what, I should show a dignified side of myself. Yet, my earlier actions came off as rather small-minded.
But what’s done is done; there’s no point in dwelling on the past. Who knows when we might meet again? Regretting things now wouldn’t change anything. Since we can’t see each other often, any missteps wouldn’t have too significant an impact on me.
Just as I was about to leave, time seemed to freeze as if under a spell. Suddenly, someone walked in, and everyone gasped in surprise at his entrance. Among them was one person whose status here was quite high; yet upon seeing this newcomer walk in, he became surprisingly humble.
The person who entered was Xu Zhen.
