And so, we met, and we fell in love.
Later, she told me that she was actually my junior from our freshman year. She had just entered b University, while I was about to leave b University.
She had a crush on me for many years, even after graduation, she was still inquiring about my whereabouts.
She thought she would never see me again in this lifetime.
But fortunately, fate is always so wonderfully unpredictable.
Xu Yan Ying said, Shu Ran, I’m telling you this just to let you know.
I succeeded; I have successfully let you go.
I am very grateful to have met you. Liking someone for four whole years has helped me mature a lot.
I also learned that when you cannot have the person you like, letting go is the best choice. Seeing you happy now is my greatest wish, and at this moment, I feel very relaxed.
Because I no longer have any concerns, I can love someone freely and cherish someone deeply.
Thank you for helping me understand the value of love that is hard to come by.
Thank you for teaching me what love is.
Thank you.
Shu Ran watched with tears in her eyes until the end, not out of sadness or sorrow, but out of happiness for him.
He is glad that he finally met The Right Person, glad that he finally has a lover who has become Companions, and glad that he no longer has to struggle in the Purgatory of misguided love.
Letting her go also means letting himself go.
This is good; she no longer has to self-blame, no longer feels sorry for him, and no longer has to feel regret and Guilt for her Heartlessness.
He is grateful that she did not agree to be with him, grateful that she set him free.
He is thankful that she gave him a chance to find true love.
From now on, he is her senior, and she is just his Sister Shuran.
That's all there is to it.
Let the Right and Wrong of those Old Times fade into memory and scatter with the wind.
Xu Yan Ying: Haha, it feels much better to say it out loud.
Xu Yan Ying: Good night, Shu Ran.
Xu Yan Ying: Goodbye, Shu Ran.
Goodbye to my past obsession.
Goodbye to what once was.
Let me start over, from the beginning.
Shu Ran: Good night, goodbye.
Shu Ran rarely browses other people's social media, but today, she clicked into Xu Yan Ying's profile.
As expected, she saw a recent post of him with his current girlfriend.
The girl was very cute, with two sweet dimples when she smiled. She nestled against him, laughing, while he looked down at her with a doting expression.
They were very affectionate.
Perhaps, this is also a kind of happiness.
Shu Ran smiled calmly and liked the post.
Then she casually scrolled down, and sure enough, he had finally deleted that one post.
That one post.
It was a status update about her that he had posted before leaving S City, which made her feel heartbroken.
She had countless possibilities, except for me.
Below were various inquiries from a group of college friends, to which he replied that everything was fine.
Shu Ran might have felt this way, which is why she later didn't dare to chat with him at all. It was a mix of her apology and the discomfort of their strange relationship.
But now, finally, he had received a good outcome.
Well, Shu Ran thought that tonight she would definitely have a good dream.
Shu Ran turned off the internet and activated airplane mode.
Finally, her phone stopped ringing.
Shu Ran contentedly buried herself in the warm blankets, closed her eyes, and softly murmured a phrase.
Good night, sweet dreams.
...
Shu Ran didn't know how she fell asleep or how long she had slept.
She only knew that when she woke up the next day, it was already snowing heavily outside. Snowflakes danced in the air, mixed with strong winds that howled. Occasionally, they tapped against the window, producing a faint rumbling sound.
Shu Ran wasn't awakened by this noise but by the knocking on the door and soft calls from outside.
Just waking up, her nose felt a bit stuffy, and her throat was somewhat dry, as if something was stuck in it. She cleared her throat with effort and called out to the person at the door, "I'm awake. Is there something you need?"
A voice from outside replied, "Qin Shao called and wants you to answer."
Hmm?
A phone call? What phone call?
Shu Ran was stunned for a second before realizing.
Wait! What time is it now!
She remembered that Qin Xian was coming back today, and she promised to pick him up!
Suddenly, she flipped over and got up, searching for her phone under the covers and beneath the pillow. She didn't forget to shout towards the door: I got it, tell him I'm calling him right now.
"Okay." The servant responded and turned to leave, their footsteps gradually fading away.
Shu Ran finally found her phone on the blanket; she must have been so tired last night that she just left it there.
In a hurry, Shu Ran unlocked her phone and turned off airplane mode. Instantly, the notification sounds rang out continuously, with a flood of missed calls and messages popping up on the screen, overwhelming her.
Shu Ran glanced at the time. Oh my god, it's already almost three o'clock.
Goodness, how long did she sleep? It must have been a full ten hours.
Shu Ran rubbed her forehead; she really hadn't realized she could sleep like a pig.
She truly slept until dawn. If the servant hadn't come to wake her up, who knows how long she would have kept sleeping.
As if perfectly timed, just as she unlocked her screen to return a call, his call came in first.
"Hello?"
A clear voice came through, "Are you awake?"
Shu Ran smiled awkwardly. "Haha, yes, just woke up." Suddenly remembering something, she asked, "Haven't you boarded the plane yet?"
He chuckled lightly, "No, I've already arrived in B City."
"What?! Isn't it only three o'clock? Didn't you have a five o'clock flight?"
"I took an earlier flight due to the heavy snow in S City."
Upon hearing this, Shu Ran glanced out the window. The trees and ground were covered in a blanket of white, and snowflakes continued to fall heavily from the sky.
This snow was indeed quite substantial and didn't seem like it would stop anytime soon.
Shu Ran timidly asked, "What time did you arrive?"
"Well," he seemed to think for a moment before leisurely replying, "around two o'clock. To be precise, it should be one forty-five."
