Little Years of Hardship

"Who let her in?"

The man in the black suit frowned.

The young secretary had been working at the company for some time, but she still wasn't as good at reading the room as the previous one. "Miss Luo is downstairs. She's been waiting for two days..."

He turned around expressionlessly. "Finish handing over your work. You don't need to come in tomorrow."

The graceful woman sitting on the sofa slowly lifted her face at his words. "Le Nan, why don't we talk?"

Le Nan?

Like her, this woman had always insisted on calling him by his full name. Her tone was as cold as a layer of tiny ice floes drifting across the water, sending a chill through the air.

Jing Lenan sneered inwardly. "Where is she?"

--------When we fall in love with someone, we always carry the most sincere, sun-bright hopes. We push through the darkness that refuses to lift and walk alone along a road strewn with thorns.

Have you ever loved someone?

Have you ever, years later, suddenly heard news of that person and felt your heart crack ever so slightly, leaving behind an ugly scar?

That person remains like mountains and seas, stretching across your memories.

Only you no longer go running to them.

Meng Li once loved Xu Wen.

At least she only loved him in the past.

Later, Xu Wen came back. When someone asked why she was so determined to avoid him, Meng Li patiently and seriously explained, "My doctor told me to avoid cold things."

It was only one night, much later, that Xu Wen finally understood what she meant.
