Blurb:
Afterward, on every rainy night, Zhang Guanfu would stand by the window and calmly watch the raindrops fall on the parasol leaves. He would always remember Wen Jing with tears streaming down her face.
She sobbed as she asked him, "Are you going to marry someone else?"
The only answer was silence.
When she had stopped crying, he went over and said, "Wen Jing, didn't you know this already?"
She nodded and calmly turned to leave. "I'm going now, Mr. Zhang. Please don't come looking for me again."
