"Why... why, didn't we agree before? You told me to find everything I like about you slowly... you said it..."
Leaning on the railing, Yao Mingyue's last hope seemed to be extinguished at that moment.
"I've also told you before not to waste your time on me. You're really good, but now I prefer to live my own life. Maybe I'm not suited to be anyone else."
Xu Musen said softly.
"But I've been trying so hard to change!"
Yao Mingyue's voice squeezed out, her eyes brimming with tears, her limbs trembling: "I've really been trying so hard, I endure not thinking about you, not seeing you, not disturbing you, not bothering you…
Clearly, we've been getting along so much better lately, haven't we? Why... why won't you wait for me just a little longer..."
Yao Mingyue's tears rolled down her cheeks, her heartbreak carrying a shattered pain, like desolate leaves falling in this season, breaking at the slightest touch.
