He sighed sorrowfully into the thick layer of mist .
He walked towards the steps .
Suddenly, snowflakes started drifting from the sky . He paused, turned around, and looked upwards .
A cold gust of wind hit him and pierced through his bones .
A snowflake landed on his eyelashes . Before he could even wipe it away, it melted .
In the pitch-black office, he didn’t turn on the heater although it was icy cold . He found the light switch skillfully, and the office brightened up .
The spacious office was empty .
He walked towards his desk and pulled out the chair . He sat on it .

Smoking wasn’t a habit of his, and he didn’t know how to do it either . But he had a pack of cigarettes in his drawer which he needed sometimes whenever he went on business engagements .
He pulled the drawer open and the first thing he saw was a metallic cigarette box . He picked it up, then he shivered .
There was a wooden photo frame under the cigarette box . It was face-down . Unconsciously, he removed his hand from the cigarette box and picked up the frame .
The girl in the photo was wearing a red dress .
Her smile was radiant .
‘Su Yan, whatever you wanted—be it Flourish & Prosper’s shares or anything else—as long as you say the word, I’ll give it to you no matter what it cost . But how could you not like me? How could you not love me? How could you… lie to me?’
Xin Yanting’s trembling voice rang in his head . He took a deep, shaky breath .
After staring at the photo for a while, he smiled . “I’m sorry . I wish you happiness . You deserve better . ”

The person in the photo was too far away to receive his late apology . But he seemed to see her reply through her radiant smile .
He wished that she would be blissful . She would be better off .
‘Aish!’
He sighed and placed the photo back into the drawer, face-down .
He took out the cigarette box and retrieved a cigarette . He didn’t light it . He held it in front of his nose, smelling it as he entered a reverie .
One year later…
Flourish & Splendor offered night tuition lessons . It was eight p . m . by the time it ended .
Su Yue brought Xiaojiao along to fetch Beibei . From afar, they saw him talking to a girl who was around his height . She didn’t know what they were talking about .
Su Yue stopped in her tracks . Xiaojiao looked over and peered up at Su Yue in confusion . “Mommy, who’s that girl?”
Su Yue replied, “She’s Brother’s classmate . ”
Xiaojiao raised her eyebrows . “Brother’s girlfriend?”
Su Yue looked at her in amusement . “Do you know what a girlfriend means?”
“Of course I do . ” Xiaojiao pouted . “She’s Brother’s wife-to-be . ”
Su Yue laughed and patted her head . “Little one, who taught you that?”
Beibei had already walked over to them in the midst of their conversation .
“Ming Beichen, remember to attend my birthday party tomorrow . Don’t forget,” Zhao Qingluo reminded him before bowing slightly at Su Yue . “Hello, Auntie . ”
Su Yue felt helpless at seeing a girl who was almost her height greet her as ‘Auntie’ . She smiled and nodded .
She watched her get onto a car and retracted her gaze . She turned to Beibei . The fellow was frowning impatiently at the leaving car .
She smiled and said, “Hey . She took the initiative to approach you and yet you’re being all haughty . ”
