I patted Jiang Yu's shoulder. "You should go back now; I'm leaving." 0
"We'll meet again if there's a chance," he replied. 0
I turned to leave, but Jiang Yu grabbed the hem of my shirt. 0
I looked back at him. "What's wrong?" 0
Jiang Yu gazed at me, "Su Mei, that night... I only took a picture; I didn't touch you." 0
I chuckled softly, "Hmm." 0
"Jiang Yu, you should go too." 0
I turned and walked away briskly. 0
Goodbye, Jiang Yu. 0
I bid you farewell amidst countless lights. 0
Thank you for being so kind to me once. 0
Thank you for your concern. 0
I wish you peace and happiness. 0
May you live a life free of worries. 0
I turned around and tried to walk forward, but my body swayed in the wind. 0
Tang Che and Wang Ting were waiting for me in the distance. 0
As I approached, they looked at me. "How did it go?" 0
I shook my head. "It's nothing." 0
"Did you cry?" Tang Che asked. 0
I raised my hand to touch my face and realized it was icy cold. 0
I shook my head again. "No." 0
Tang Che chuckled lightly, "Still trying to fool me?" 0
I lowered my head and said nothing. 0
Tang Che spoke softly, "Su Mei, I know what you're thinking." 0
"You still can't let him go, can you?" 0
I shook my head. 0
 
 
I am just... 0
Just regretful. 0
Regretful that we have become what we are now. 0
If only we could have been more honest back then, perhaps we wouldn't have ended up like this. 0
But life has no "if only." 0
Jiang Yu and I were destined to miss each other. 0
I lifted my head to look at Tang Che. "Thank you." 0
Tang Che raised an eyebrow slightly. "Thank me for what?" 0
"Thank you for being there for me day by day." 0
Tang Che chuckled softly. "I'm just doing what I want to do." 0
I looked at him, and he was looking back at me. 0
I said, "Tang Che, thank you." 0
Tang Che smiled but didn't say anything. 0
 
A few days later, Jiang Yu released a video. 0
He admitted to the things he had done in the past. 0
He acknowledged that he had forced me and that he had taken photos of me. 0
He also made public the agreement he had signed with Yu Tian, revealing that they had originally planned to marry for two years and then part amicably; it was all just an act. 0
Jiang Yu, he has always been a proud person. 0
Yet now, he admitted his mistakes in front of so many people. 0
I don't know what he is thinking inside. 0
I truly don't know. 0
All I know is that we can never go back to how things were before. 0
 
Three days later, Jiang Heng called me. 0
He said, "Su Mei." 0
"I owe you an explanation." 0
I smiled faintly. "It's all in the past." 0
"I'm sorry, I misjudged people; Yu Tian had ulterior motives, which led to your situation being exposed." 0
 
 
I whispered, "It's okay." 0
 
"And those creditors, they extorted money from you and then sold the information to Yu Tian." 0
 
So that's how it was. 0
 
I replied, "I understand." 0
 
"Su Mei, can you come back?" 0
 
I shook my head. "I can't." 0
 
I could never go back. 0
 
Between Jiang Yu and me, things could never return to how they were. 0
 
I looked out the window at the warm sunlight. 0
 
Walking in the sunshine, a smile crept onto my lips. 0
 
It had been a long time since I felt this happy. 0
 
The smile on my face had not appeared for quite a while. 0
 
I closed my eyes, soaking in the warmth of the sun. 0
 
Tang Che came to my house. "Is there anything to eat?" 0
 
He had been busy since morning and hadn't even had a sip of water. 0
 
I handed him a piece of red bean bread. 0
 
He devoured it in just a few bites and then asked, "Su Mei, would you like to settle down in my apartment?" 0
 
I raised an eyebrow slightly. "Why?" 0
 
Tang Che cleared his throat. "Because..." 0
 
"There are no neighbors over there, and I'm scared being alone." 0
 
I was speechless. 0
 
What did he take me for? 0
 
I shook my head helplessly. 0
 
Tang Che glanced at me. "Alright then, I'll go home." 0
