The day she reunited with Zhou Xu was a gloomy, snowy day.
He was exactly as he had been back then, smiling as he greeted her warmly. Zou Yubai, however, could barely manage a trembling, awkward "Long time no see."
After the New Year, they ran into each other at a business dinner.
They happened to be heading in the same direction after it ended, and walked together to the building where he lived.
The moonlight cast dancing shadows, and even the shadow beneath his jaw was a beautiful shade of gray. Dazed by the night, Yubai impulsively asked, "Won't you invite me up for a while?"
He stopped dead in his tracks.
She would always remember that night.
Zhou Xu bent down reverently and slipped off her high heels, his cool fingertips brushing her ankle.
Their breaths mingled, damp and hurried, as they held each other close. He loved her so tenderly that she almost believed they had been in love for ages.
Theme: I love you.
