Situ Jing had always followed behind Duan Ningxuan, watching him walk to and from school, watching him choose another girl, and watching him get married and vanish from her world for good.
Later, she became an excellent lawyer and appeared before him to handle his divorce case.
Seeing him single again, the feelings she had buried deep inside surged forth.
“Duan Ningxuan, I like you. I’m telling you this not so you’ll become my boyfriend, but so I can bring all these years of feelings to a close. After this, I’ll return to the crowd, and I wish you a smooth and happy life.”
From that day on, Duan Ningxuan could never get one person out of his mind. Her independence, her strong opinions, her competence: none of it would leave his thoughts.
Gradually, “Miss Situ” became “Situ,” and then eventually, “A Jing, may I call you that?”
So this was what it meant to like someone. You didn’t see her as a burden or find it exhausting to be around her. You even began to worry about her every move, and her joys and sorrows became connected to your own.
“A Jing, forgive me for taking so long. If you’re willing, will you be with me?”
