A secret crush is a one-person play...
At 24, Nan Yi had been acting out this play for ten whole years...
Then, an unexpected reunion and a heartfelt confession finally gave all the emotions she had accumulated since their youth somewhere to go.
“Can we stay together forever?”
Nan Yi nestled close to the place nearest someone’s heart and whispered softly.
“Of course.”
The young man’s deep, resolute voice was still etched in her mind.
But later... she broke her promise.
“Shen Linchun, let’s part on good terms.”
“Shen Linchun, what’s the point of dragging this out?”
“I don’t want you anymore, Shen Linchun. This is over!”
It was as if she had lost her senses. The more hurtful the words, the more easily she let them slip out.
“Yiyi, some things are beyond our control. We were still young back then.”
Three years later, those words kept echoing in her ears. They had been young, and so had Shen Linchun. She had dragged this innocent outsider into the mess just to satisfy the rush of revenge she thought she would feel.
But she regretted it...
She cut her hair short, hoping to return to where it all began.
“Shen Linchun, if you’re willing to turn back this time, I promise I’ll keep my word.”
