"Star!" As soon as he entered, he looked at me with overwhelming joy. At that moment, I stood quietly by the window, my expression as calm as still water, gazing at him without a hint of emotion. He seemed to sense something was off; his steps hesitated, and a flicker of confusion and unease appeared in his eyes. He paused there, locking eyes with me, trying to find some answers in my gaze. However, my eyes remained unchanged, like a deep pool, making it difficult to glimpse the true emotions within.
"Star, what... do you want to talk about?"
"Brother Yulin..." My voice was as soft as a breeze, as if it would scatter with the slightest force. "I admit that even knowing your mother harmed me back then, I never thought of leaving you. However, your actions later filled me with fear. When I was with you, I felt incredibly happy and believed I was the luckiest person in the world. But after going through various trials, my love for you hasn't changed; it has only added a touch of fear. I never expected you to be so insecure that you would treat me in such an extreme way as to imprison me. Perhaps... we really are not meant to be."
"I'm sorry, truly sorry. It was my moment of confusion; fear clouded my judgment and led me to hurt you," Shen Yulin said, looking at me with guilt written all over his face.
"Enough; those things no longer matter. Now, I just long to live the life I desire. Here, please allow me to process my resignation from Chengxing Corporation. Can you do that? Please don’t refuse me."
"Do you want to stay here?" His voice was as calm as still water, showing no ripples, yet I sensed a hint of hope and expectation within it.
I bit my lip, a sharp pain coursing through my heart, but I nodded firmly: "Yes, I want to stay here, beside the one who loves me... beside... someone without you."
As I uttered the last sentence, it felt as if something was blocking my throat, making it nearly impossible to breathe. I struggled to hold back the tears threatening to spill from my eyes.
I knew that I still loved him. This love had once burned like a flame but had now turned into endless pain and torment. Yet I also understood that we could never go back. Some things, once they happen, can never be undone.
Shen Yulin stood silently, filled with contradictions and struggles within him. He yearned for reconciliation, but my stance made it difficult for him to voice that desire. Memories surged like a tide in his mind; every little moment we shared flashed before him. However, the chasm of reality left him feeling powerless. His lips moved slightly as if he wanted to say something but ultimately chose silence instead. The conclusion of our separation gradually settled in his heart; despite the unbearable pain, he preferred to bury these feelings deep inside rather than risk pursuing the possibility of reconciliation.
"As you wish. But Star, don’t give up on me easily; I will come back."
With that, he turned silently and left, his figure appearing lonely and desolate under the corridor lights. Tears welled in his eyes, but he held them back fiercely. Perhaps this was fate's arrangement; he could only accept it and hope that time would dull the pain in my heart and bring us back to that most beautiful moment once again.
