She had no mood to continue watching the drama on television, so she took out her phone and unblocked the WeChat contact she had previously added to her blacklist.
"Come out, I'm waiting for you outside."
Yun Li stood up and walked out, making her way along Wutong Tree Road, a path that seemed unchanged over the years.
It was here that she had once secretly watched him, thought about him, and quietly liked him without daring to approach.
She arrived at Zhan Station, a popular spot during the holidays known for its famous sycamore trees, where many people came to take photos.
When Jiang Shiyu approached, he saw Yun Li standing there beneath the canopy of yellow sycamore leaves. She wore a light shirt and denim shorts, and as the leaves fell around her, her eyes followed their descent.
She crouched down to pick up a leaf, delicately tracing its texture with her fingertips.
Focused on the leaf, she didn't notice Jiang Shiyu standing beside her until she finished observing it.
After examining all the patterns on the leaf, she stood up and looked directly at the passing bus. Many people boarded it before the doors closed and it drove away, leaving a quieter atmosphere behind.
"It's beautiful here," she said aloud.
Jiang Shiyu turned to look at her as she spoke. Her long eyelashes curled upward, and with her head slightly tilted back, her slender neck revealed graceful bones and a beautiful collarbone. She appeared delicate, reminding him that she had only eaten a bowl of rice earlier, hardly touching any dishes.
He felt a pang in his heart.
"Let me take your picture," he suggested.
"Just like before."
Yun Li gently smiled and slowly shook her head.
Turning to face him directly, she pulled out a plane ticket from her pocket and asked, "What were you doing when you came back?"
Jiang Shiyu froze for a moment upon seeing the ticket; panic began to set in.
He pressed his lips together and lowered his gaze, wanting to fabricate an excuse, but Yun Li wasn’t giving him any chances. Perhaps she sensed his intent to lie in his downcast eyes and silent demeanor.
"Is this evidence you provided?"
"And those two men who tried to kidnap me—did you deal with them too?"
Yun Li remained calm, staring intently at him as if determined to extract answers.
She tightened her grip on the ticket until severe creases formed in the paper.
"Why are you afraid to admit it?"
His voice was low: "I didn't do these things to show you. I only want you."
Yun Li nodded slowly. "I'm holding on now, but it would be easier if you didn't show up."
Jiang Shiyu's face suddenly turned pale. He spoke in a hoarse voice, filled with emotion, "Hmm."
Yun Li returned the plane ticket to him, tucking it into his coat pocket. As she prepared to leave, she turned her back and said, "Thank you for this matter, and for what happened with Fang Yang."
Fang Yang had caused her trouble after she broke up with Jiang Shiyu, persistently harassing her and openly pursuing her. Once, he even bribed someone from her class to lure her into a trap. The moment she stepped inside, seeing Fang Yang made her want to run, but others were already waiting at the door, pinning her down on the sofa so she couldn't move. Her classmates had fled.
There were both boys and girls in the room, but the boys outnumbered the girls by a large margin—six boys to three girls. The dim lighting and colorful lights created an atmosphere of unknown fear that pulled her into despair.
Fang Yang took off his outer jacket and approached her with a lewd grin. No matter how Yun Li struggled, she couldn't get up; all she could do was kick at him, landing a blow right in his groin.
In the next moment, Qin Nianzhe and Qin Nianchu appeared, along with police officers. With the police present, they dared not act recklessly anymore and were eventually taken to the police station for a few days.
Later on, Fang Yang was criticized by the school and expelled. If he had been watching her from the shadows all along, then he must have had a hand in that incident.
Jiang Shiyu didn't respond; she guessed correctly. She didn't know how many more things he was hiding from her, but at this point, it didn't matter as much anymore. Since he didn't want to talk about it, there was nothing more to say.
