The lingering autumn heat refused to leave the end of September. The plane tree leaves had been scorched brittle by the sun, and fell rustling whenever the wind blew, carrying waves of hot air into the faces of passersby.
Jiang Yiheng sat on a bench in front of the medical school’s graduate building, holding an unlit cigarette between his fingers and gazing toward the campus gate in the distance.
He wore a simple white T-shirt, his figure tall and straight. The lines of his profile were sharp, as if carved by a knife; his jaw was clenched, his thin lips pressed into a straight line.
Girls passing by couldn’t help sneaking glances at him, only to hurriedly look away, intimidated by the cold aura around him.
His phone vibrated in his pocket. It was a message from his academic advisor: [Senior Jiang, Su Yu’an’s registration is complete. Shall I bring him over to meet you?]
Jiang Yiheng’s fingers twitched. He rolled the cigarette between them, replied [Mm], then crushed the cigarette he had never lit and tossed it into the nearby trash can.
Three years.
He had waited for three whole years.
