"Her ears can't hear sweet nothings."
*
Years later, Cheng Ningwan ran into her ex-boyfriend at an alumni reunion.
Everyone knew that their once passionate relationship had ended as a joke. He was a playboy from a prominent family, while she was a quiet, almost invisible disabled girl. Back then, everyone had said she was marrying above her station.
During a game, someone suggested a prank: make Yao Shizhan confess to a girl at the gathering as a dare.
After looking around, he still chose Cheng Ningwan. He tugged at the hearing aid by her ear and said in front of everyone, "I love you. Let's get back together."
Everyone: "..."
Everyone mocked the school heartthrob for being such a hopeless romantic.
But while she stood there stunned, he laughed and said to the others, "It's just a dare. It's easier to say it to someone who can't hear."
Only then did everyone let out the breath they hadn't realized they were holding.
Cheng Ningwan didn't react. She simply got very drunk that night, and no one asked about it.
But that very night, someone saw Yao Shizhan, equally drunk, run over and pull her into his arms. He gently stroked her face, his voice choked with emotion. "When I said I loved you, I meant it, both then and now."
To her.
He still had the same sweet words for her: "You and your busted ears, I know you can hear me."
