He spent 800 days turning himself into a joke, only to realize later that some people leave because fate is clearing the road for you.
Xiao Chonglin thought this was all life had left for him.
A top-tier white-collar professional, he was known in his circle for his ability. Becoming a director and buying a home and car before turning thirty would have been no problem.
But he chose another path.
To stay by Chu Shuangxue’s side, he held himself back. He stopped competing and striving, went home on time every day, cooked for her, watched shows with her, and traded all his ambition for devotion to her.
The day they broke up, she left him with one sentence: “More than 800 days? What a joke.”
Then she walked away without looking back.
Xiao Chonglin thought his life was over.
Later, he realized it was called freedom.
When they met again, a woman was standing beside Xiao Chonglin.
As for Chu Shuangxue?
She came back.
Xiao Chonglin smiled.
Those 800 days taught him more than how to make sweet-and-sour pork tenderloin.
They also taught him that when someone leaves, you shouldn’t chase them. Even if you get them back, they’re still the person who left.
The sunlight outside was lovely.
Xiao Chonglin looked at Shen Junning beside him and suddenly thought...
Those 800 days had been worth it.
Without that joke of a relationship, how could he have earned the life he had now?
