Two years into their marriage, Zhao Yuan learned that his wife, Chen Ruyan, spoke about him as if he were worthless whenever she was with her friends.
At the same time, he heard what she was really thinking:
He’s the best man in the world. I’m just afraid someone will steal him away, so I hide him behind the cruelest words I can think of.
Zhao Yuan didn’t call her out.
He simply began to withdraw all his tenderness and quietly walked out of her life.
Chen Ruyan thought he would come back, just like before.
But he never did.
She began learning how to polish a silver lock, how to take things slowly, and how to speak like a normal person.
She didn’t know if it was already too late.
Some people take time to love.
She spent two years pushing him away, then the rest of her life trying to win him back.
