◎ Older man | Rekindled love | Possessive pursuit
She ran into Fu Yuheng again on a London street. He sat in the back of a luxury car, his gold-rimmed glasses reflecting flecks of light from the angel lights outside. His gaze behind the lenses was cold and detached, just as untouchable as he had been all those years ago.
Christmas Eve was lively and festive, while Qin Sui had just been kicked out by her landlord, a complete mess.
In just five short years, their circumstances had changed beyond recognition.
Qin Sui's family had fallen on hard times, and now she worked her way through school just to afford a plane ticket home.
Fu Yuheng, meanwhile, had long since become the head of his business empire.
The man lowered the car window and looked down at her crouching by the roadside, his gaze indifferent.
"Qin Sui, looks like life isn't treating you very well these days."
-
At university, they had been the couple everyone envied.
Qin Sui came from a wealthy family, with bright eyes and lovely features. In her first year, she declared that she would win over Fu Yuheng, A University's acknowledged campus heartthrob.
The heartthrob kept his distance from women. Some people even wondered about his sexual orientation, which only made Qin Sui more determined.
"Is that so? Then I'll just keep going until I hit a wall!"
Qin Sui pursued him relentlessly, trying every trick in the book, until she finally got him in her second year.
Everyone marveled that even the aloof flower on the high peak had fallen from his pedestal.
-
An accident changed the course of their lives.
Qin Sui made a harsh declaration and asked to break up.
Fu Yuheng's eyes reddened. He begged humbly, "Sui Sui, don't leave me."
She turned and walked away without sparing him a glance.
-
After returning to China, Fu Yuheng pressed closer at every turn, leaving Qin Sui nowhere to hide.
At last, she couldn't take it anymore. Her eyes reddened as she asked in a trembling voice,
"Why are you treating me like this?"
The man wiped away the tear at the corner of Qin Sui's eye and whispered by her ear,
"I told you, if you're going to leave, go far away. Don't let me catch you."
