How Could He Not Love Her?

Lin Wan curled into a ball, tears streaming down her face, soaking the bed sheets.

Yichen, am I the only one for you?

Is there another woman beneath you besides me?

Is that Xu Yanxi also… beneath you?

…

The following day, a Saturday, Xiao Yichen opened his eyes to find Lin Wan still asleep beside him.

He stared at her for a while, then turned to the bedside table's alarm clock. It was already past ten o'clock. He had plans to meet Yanxi for lunch today.

Xiao Yichen turned and leaned down, kissing her lips for a long moment before releasing her.

"Wan'er," he softly called.

"Mm," Lin Wan replied groggily.

"I've got something to attend to today. I'll be out for a while. Remember to have lunch, alright?" Xiao Yichen said.

"Mm," Lin Wan replied with a single word, her voice devoid of emotion.

Xiao Yichen got out of bed and headed to the bathroom.
