"Bai Wei, you're right. Whatever I say now is wrong." Explanation? In Lingxi's eyes, it's just a cover-up excuse. My heart feels like it's being tightly gripped by someone, hurting so much that I can barely breathe.
"Lingxi..." How I wish I could catch up to her, hold her in my arms, and tell her how much I care about her and how afraid I am of losing her. But I didn't; I can't. The only thing I can do now is give her time to calm down.
"Du Ming, don't you understand? What Lingxi needs is not your silence, but your attitude!" Bai Wei looked at me with disappointment, her tone filled with urgency. "You should hurry and chase after her!"
Bai Wei's words awakened me. Yes, I can't just sit here and do nothing! I turned around to chase after Lingxi but was pulled back by Bai Wei.
"What are you doing?" Bai Wei's eyes were filled with confusion.
"I'm going to find Lingxi; I need to explain things clearly to her!" My tone was firm and resolute.
"Are you crazy? If you go find her now, it will only make her angrier!" Bai Wei shot me a frustrated glare. "What you need to do right now is calm down and think about how to salvage this relationship!"
Bai Wei's words helped me regain my composure. Yes, if I go find Lingxi now, it will only add fuel to the fire. I took a deep breath, trying to suppress my inner turmoil, and asked, "So what should I do?"
"Right now, you shouldn't do anything. Let me go find Lingxi first and soothe her emotions." Bai Wei patted my shoulder gently, her tone softening. "Don't worry; I'll take good care of her."
I looked at Bai Wei gratefully and nodded. I knew she genuinely wanted the best for me and hoped for my happiness with Lingxi. I watched as Bai Wei left, filled with worry and unease. Lingxi, where are you? Do you know how worried I am about you?
The large villa felt eerily empty at that moment. I slumped helplessly on the sofa, replaying the image of Lingxi's resolute departure in my mind over and over again, my heart aching like it was being sliced open. What did I do wrong? Why did things turn out this way? Is this really how it ends between us?
"Lingxi, I'm sorry..." I murmured to myself, but there was no response. Bai Wei was right; I couldn't keep avoiding this any longer. What Lingxi needed was my attitude; she needed me to prove my sincerity through actions. I have to let her know that I love her more than anything.
But what should I do? Send flowers? Too cliché. Write a letter? That would seem insincere. I pondered deeply but couldn't find a suitable way to express myself. Lingxi, what do you want me to do for you to forgive me?
Meanwhile, Lingxi was walking in the park with Bai Wei by her side. The early autumn sun shone down on them, bringing a touch of warmth but failing to dispel the gloom in her heart. "Lingxi, don't be sad; Du Ming didn't mean it," Bai Wei said gently, looking at her with concern.
Lingxi shook her head without speaking. She knew Du Ming didn't intend to hurt her, but she couldn't accept his repeated concealments. Did he really see her as an unreasonable woman who didn't understand anything? "Weiwei, do you think he really loves me?" Lingxi's voice trembled slightly as tears welled up in her eyes.
Bai Wei sighed and embraced Lingxi tightly. "Silly girl, of course he loves you; he just expresses it clumsily."
Weiwei was right; Du Ming had always shown his love through actions. Memories flooded my mind—his determination when he shielded me from harm and his focus when he crafted pills for me late at night—those images were so vivid as if they had happened just yesterday. But every time I thought of his repeated lies, my heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.
"Weiwei, I want to be alone for a while." I gently pushed Bai Wei away and walked over to a bench by the lake, gazing at the shimmering water while lost in thought.
"Okay, I'll wait here for you." Bai Wei understood and quietly stayed by my side without pressing further.
I don't know how long passed when a gentle breeze blew by, carrying a faint fragrance with it. Following the scent, I looked up and saw a familiar figure standing not far away. He held a bouquet of lilies in his hands and walked toward me step by step. The setting sun cast a golden glow around him.
"Lingxi, I'm sorry." Du Ming stood before me and offered the lilies with eyes full of regret and guilt.
I didn't reach out to take the bouquet; instead, I coldly stared at him. "What are you apologizing for?"
"Lingxi, I know I've made mistakes; I shouldn't have kept things from you repeatedly." Du Ming's tone carried a hint of pleading. "I just didn't want you to worry; I wanted to bear it all alone."
"So you chose to keep me in the dark, making me look like a fool?" My voice unconsciously rose a few notches. "Du Ming, have you ever thought about my feelings?"
Du Ming remained silent, simply pulling a letter from his pocket and handing it to me. "Lingxi, this is a letter I wrote for you. Please take a look at it, okay?"
I hesitated for a moment but eventually took the letter. The envelope emitted a faint scent of ink, the kind Du Ming often used. I took a deep breath and slowly opened the envelope. On the letter paper was Du Ming's familiar handwriting, each stroke filled with his love and regret for me...
