On Christmas Eve, several coworkers receive flowers from their boyfriends.
Our team leader teases me:
“Yueyue’s boyfriend has a doctorate in art. He must be more romantic than us regular office drones.”
After all, the year before last, Gu Yunchuan gave me 999 Burgundy roses that made everyone jealous.
Last year, he gave me a picture frame spelling out “I love you” in countless pink diamonds.
When it came to showing off his love, Gu Yunchuan had never let me down.
But this year, my phone stays silent all night.
Worried that something has happened to Gu Yunchuan, I apply for leave early and fly halfway around the world.
But when I brave the wind and snow to reach his building, I see him kissing another girl beneath the Christmas tree.
