“Xiaoxuan, am I being foolish?”
“I actually sacrificed my whole life for such a scumbag.”
“Secretary Wang, why did you give up?”
“In the past, I always thought I could change him.”
“I believed that as long as I stayed by his side, one day he would see me.”
“But now I realize that I can never change him.”
“He will never see me.”
“In this relationship, I have always been at a disadvantage.”
“This battle, I lost before it even started.”
“Xiaoxuan, I’m tired.”
“I’m really so very tired.”
“I don’t want to continue like this.”
“I’ve truly had enough of this kind of life.”
I sighed, “Secretary Wang, the woman you mentioned will never step through the door.”
“Never, ever.”
“He only has me as his child; no matter how much he dislikes me, that’s an unchangeable fact.”
“So you don’t need to worry too much.”
“At least in this battle, you still maintain your own identity.”
Secretary Wang smiled, “Yes.”
“I am Mrs. Li.”
“Always will be.”
In the evening, Qian Fan called me.
“Are you asleep?”
"No."
"What are you doing?"
"Looking at a house."
"What house?"
I chuckled lightly, "Our home."
"Our home?"
"Yes."
"Qian Fan, actually, our home is right under that bridge."
"Our fate was also tied under that bridge."
"I just didn't know back then that the little boy was you."
"I only found out that day that you lived in that house when you were young too."
"But then, you moved away."
"Later on, the house was burned down in a big fire."
"And then, I could never see that little boy again."
Qian Fan chuckled lightly, "Zixuan, do you remember?"
"You used to follow me around like a little tail."
"Wherever I went, you followed."
"I told you not to follow me, but you wouldn't listen."
"I was thinking, why is this little girl so stubborn?"
"But I was also quite happy."
"After all, I had a little shadow."
"Then I moved away and never saw you again."
"Sometimes, I still think of you."
"I remember that little girl who followed me around, calling me brother."
The next day, after finishing my drink, I pretended to be drunk, but in reality, I was very sober. I did this just to get back at Cheng Lin.
Qian Fan felt uneasy seeing Cheng Lin's heartbroken expression. I acted drunk while he played along with me, putting on a lovesick facade.
How Cheng Lin was doing didn't concern him at all. He only cared about getting me out of there and letting me have a good sleep. As for everything else, he left it to the actors.
"Qian Fan, do you remember?"
"There was that time when our grade had an event, and I followed you to the small grove."
"You didn't realize I was behind you until you were already scared half to death."
"I still remember how I leaned in close to your ear and talked to you, and you nearly jumped out of your skin."
"Then suddenly a snake appeared in the grove, and I was so frightened that I jumped right onto you."
"You were worried I'd get bitten by the snake and pushed me away."
"As a result, rumors spread that you slapped me."
"I was mad at you for a long time."
"Clearly, you saved me, yet everyone misunderstood it like that."
"But later I found out that you were really afraid of snakes back then."
"That's why you reacted the way you did."
