I got up and opened the door of the lounge, and ran into Ling Zhi who stood still.

Ling Zhi looked at me with a deep gaze.

I took a step back and looked at him, "What's the matter?"

Ling Zhi looked at me, his whole body tense, as if trying hard to restrain something.

"Your boyfriend..."

He stopped, unable to continue.

I took a deep breath and looked up at him.

"Ling Zhi, it's in the past, you don't have to keep holding on to it."

Ling Zhi lowered his head and said nothing.

"Twelve years, I think I know you pretty well." I said gently, "You clinging onto it like this, it's just because you're a very traditional person."

"When the gap in our identities was so huge, we didn't even think about letting go, because we both still loved each other."

"Even though we were not compatible in many ways, we always accepted each other."

"But a long time ago, I stopped feeling it, maybe you don't want to admit it, but that's how it is, we no longer tolerate each other as before, but instead show the thorns we used to hide."

Ling Zhi retorted, "I did try to save it at the beginning!"

I shook my head, "Is it about you and your junior sister? I admit, that incident did reignite our feelings, but I later found out, it was just a dying spark of our relationship."

After saying that, I turned around, only to see Lu Beicheng walking towards us.

I smiled.
