“Miss Song, you were the one who fell first. How did I end up being the one who can’t let go?”
“Miss Song, am I really that embarrassing? We just made things official, and now you want to have an online romance?” Lu Jingting laughed in disbelief when he received Song Shiwei’s message.
Song Shiwei was practically ready to flee the country overnight. She was the one who had first stirred his heart, yet now she wouldn’t give him a proper label.
Song Shiwei felt completely misunderstood. Was she really that heartless? She was only the kind of person who would run away overnight upon learning that Lu Jingting was already engaged. (Even though the engagement was just a joke made by their elders and Lu Jingting had never taken it seriously, Song Shiwei still cared. She wanted a devoted lover who would give her a unique, wholehearted kind of love.)
Don’t tell her that true love can overcome every obstacle and that you have to face difficulties head-on. Song Shiwei’s life philosophy is simple: if something should be given up, give it up. Being a carefree, lazy fish is happier than anything else. He’s just one man. If he can’t overcome every obstacle and stand before her, she can live without loving him.
Love isn’t a necessity in life, just a seasoning.
So even though Song Shiwei likes Lu Jingting, all she gives him is the chance to like her and pursue her. Love yourself before you love someone else. Being lovesick is one way to love, but it isn’t the only choice in life.
