Wen Suwan and Shen Qizhou had known each other for six years. Over those years, his thoughtless little gestures and occasional concern made Wen Suwan wonder time and again if Shen Qizhou might have a special soft spot for her. In that hazy, ambiguous relationship, she secretly delighted in the possibility and looked forward to more.
Then a post by Shen Qizhou on social media shattered her fantasies completely. He bluntly stated that not responding meant he was not interested, and that he was speaking up now because he had fallen for someone. He tagged Wen Suwan without mercy, declared that he did not like her, and even said he was disgusted by videos edited to make them look like a couple.
Those few short sentences were like a sharp blade, slicing through the beautiful dream Wen Suwan had woven over the years. All her self-persuasion had been nothing but wishful thinking; the special affection she thought she saw had never existed. In that moment, she understood clearly that her six-year entanglement with Shen Qizhou had come to a definitive end, leaving behind only heartbreak and resentment.
