Wang Zhan was silent for a long time before he spoke.
"I'm not with Marin like you think."
"What do you mean by that?"
"We..."
He paused.
"There are no inappropriate actions between us."
"So what?"
"So..."
He looked at me.
"Are you just trying to provoke me?"
"No."
I shook my head.
"I finally understand a fact."
"What fact?"
"You won't choose me."
His face turned pale: "I..."
"In the future, I won't cling to you or try to provoke you anymore."
"I..."
He opened his mouth but couldn't find the words.
I smiled lightly: "You're free now, isn't that good?"
"I..."
His eyes turned red: "I'm not..."
I stood up: "I'm going back to my room."
I turned and walked toward my room.
In the drawer, I found a hairpin.
It was a light purple hairpin that Wang Zhan had given me when I was seventeen.
That summer, Wang Zhan and I spent almost every day together.
But after school started, I saw him kissing a girl.
That girl was wearing a light purple hairpin.
I silently put the hairpin away and never wore it again.
I finally understood that no matter what happened with Marin, he would never choose me.
On the last day of the vacation, Ma Jia called me out.
"I have something to tell you."
"What is it?"
"Do you want to hear it?"
"You speak."
"I was with Wang Zhan. The shop was too busy during that time, so we stayed together."
"Mm."
"Marin did come to find me."
"Mm."
"But she was looking for me, not Wang Zhan."
"What?"
"They were in the room that day and didn't do anything."
"So?"
"So, you misunderstood."
"What does it matter?"
"You..."
Ma Jia sighed.
"Wang Zhan likes you."
"He's a man and has his pride. If you keep giving him the cold shoulder, he won't have the courage to reach out to you."
"He has been feeling really down these days."
"You should go see him."
I walked out in silence.
Outside the milk tea shop, I saw Wang Zhan.
He looked at me quietly, his expression calm.
Wang Zhan and I are both rational and self-aware people.
We have never made an effort to pursue anything.
Our lives flow naturally, and everything comes easily.
I thought that after what happened last time, Wang Zhan would no longer pay attention to me.
But since I returned from my hometown, Wang Zhan has not been well.
He was sick for two days.
He even tried to cook seafood porridge himself and ended up burning himself.
Ma Jia said he stood in the kitchen for a long time.
I understood what she meant.
Wang Zhan has feelings for me deep down; it's just that he needs more time to adjust to life without me.
I focused on myself.
Xu Zheng made me feel cared for and loved.
He made me realize that there are people who care about my well-being more than I do.
Since being with Xu Zheng, I have never felt wronged again. Even when walking by the river, I feel the air is sweet.
"What's wrong?" Xu Zheng asked me.
"Nothing much," I blinked.
"You seem very used to taking care of others."
"Do I?"
"You do." He nodded.
"In your heart, what kind of person am I?"
"Very smart, very gentle, and also good at taking care of people."
"Is that all?"
"And..." He smiled at me.
"What else?"
"You love me very much."
"You're a bit narcissistic."
"Isn't that true?"
"At least in front of me, you don't need to be like that."
"Huh?"
"I will take care of you."
"Okay." I nodded.
"Promise to follow through."
"Okay."
"Promise to follow through."
"Mm, promise to follow through." I smiled and hugged him.
