In the fall of 2017, Lin Ruotang met Han Sheng.
At their first meeting, during H University's anniversary celebration, the girl onstage gazed at him with affection, while the man in the audience was captivated by her looks.
When they met again, he said, “You have a beautiful name.”
That day, heavy rain forced her to accept a ride from him. As she got out, he handed her a note: “If you'd like, you can get in touch with me.”
After that, he made a point of getting close to her, while she deliberately kept her distance.
“Mr. Han, if you need anything, just tell me directly. You don't have to take me out to dinner.”
“Is it okay if I just want to see you?”
“Do you like me, Mr. Han?”
“I like you, Mr. Han, but I only want to date you openly and honestly. I don't want to be your secret lover. Would you be willing to do that?”
“If you can't, then we should stop contacting each other.”
When she came back, she wept and said, “You treated me so well that I thought you loved me. Now that I think about it, you never once said you loved me.”
“When it comes to love, I'm selfish. I want my husband to be mine alone, body and soul. You can't give me that, and you won't marry me.”
