Bright Spring Days

*The copy has been backed up and screenshotted with timestamps. Lu Zhaozhao and Chen Yubai reunited after a long separation at the hospital. At the time, she was sitting in the emergency room, pressing a hand to her bleeding wound. Chen Yubai, dressed in a white coat, hurried past her. His face was tightly covered by a blue mask, leaving only his cool, deep-set eyes visible. He didn't see her. And she didn't call out to him. Not long afterward, Lu Zhaozhao pushed herself up and left. She had no idea that in the instant she turned away, across the crowded room, the man lifted his eyelids and watched her limp off. The depths of his eyes flickered with the faintest hint of emotion. A nurse asked curiously, "Dr. Chen, what are you looking at?" "Nothing," Chen Yubai replied coolly. "Just an ex-girlfriend who dumped me after leading me on." The next time they met, she was on a blind date at a cafe, while her date spouted nonsense without pause. Chen Yubai sat alone by the window, waiting for someone, his long fingers stirring his coffee with a spoon. A little while later, a pretty young woman with immaculate makeup arrived right on time. She looped her arm through the man's and smiled brightly, coquettishly clinging to him with effortless ease. Chen Yubai's brows drew together slightly, as if impatient, yet his body was relaxed. He curved his lips into a lazy smile, his expression carrying a hint of indulgence. Lu Zhaozhao lowered her eyes and took a sip of black coffee. Its bitterness was hard to bear. Lu Zhaozhao and Chen Yubai had been together for four years. She had personally traced every inch of his bones and seen every vivid expression he wore, from restraint to self-control. He had doted on her without limits. Only on the day they broke up did the usually cool and proud young man turn red-eyed, gripping her wrist so tightly it seemed he would crush it. His voice hoarse, his brows weighed down by a fierce, menacing anger, he said, "Lu Zhaozhao, don't let me see you again." She thought they had no future together. That if they met again, they would be strangers. But that night, under the heavy dew and deep darkness, the man came through wind and rain, cold enough to chill her to the bone. "Lu Zhaozhao, I told you not to let me see you again. Otherwise..." "I will never let you go." The day they left the marriage registration office, Lu Zhaozhao clutched their marriage certificate, dazed. Chen Yubai merely glanced at her coolly. "You owe me this, Lu Zhaozhao."
