On the day she broke off the engagement, Shen Qingci did not cry, but quietly took off her ring: "Okay."
Gu Jingchen thought she would pester, question, and cry to beg him to stay. But she did nothing. He breathed a sigh of relief and turned towards Lu Wantang, the enthusiastic woman who could stand side by side with him in the mall.
Three months later, Gu Jingchen was outside the intensive care unit and saw Shen Qingci being pushed out covered in blood. She blocked the runaway truck in order to save his sister. There was still an unsent message on the screen of her mobile phone: "Jingchen, today is your birthday. I knitted a scarf for you and put it in the usual place."
He ran to the sycamore tree like crazy and dug out the iron box. Inside were letters she had written to him for more than ten years but had not sent. The last letter was written on the day the engagement was broken off:
"Brother Jingchen, if there is an afterlife, I don't want to meet you again. It hurts too much."
She has loved him for more than ten years, waited for him for more than ten years, and been humble for more than ten years. He finally looked back, but she didn't want it anymore.

The author's writing is very good
Some people will never come back if they miss it. We have to move forward and don't look back.
