Su Zhinian felt like someone had sucker-punched him in the guts . He stood beside Song Qingchun, just staring at her quietly .
"…Or are you too busy to come get me?" Her words sounded natural and easy, and there was even a trace of smile in her voice, but her tears kept on coming . "Then, it's okay…"
She took a pause as if worried that she might lose her composure . She bit on her lower lip and after a while, forced her lips into a smile . With her eyes shining with tears, she added with a barely discernible tremble in her voice, "…It's okay, I can wait for you . Please come fetch me when you're no longer busy, okay?"
After she asked that question, the curve on her lips suddenly disappeared . Like her soul had been pulled out of her, she gripped the phone in her hand and stared at the street ahead of her dumbly . After a long while, she said softly to herself, "How could I have forgotten? You already told me not to wait for you anymore…"
A veil of loneliness seemed to have fallen over her at that moment . When she finished the statement, her eyes scanned her surroundings as if with panic . Following two rows of tears, she lowered her eyes, and the hand that held her phone fell limply to her side like she had lost all her energy . "…In fact, you won't even be my friend anymore . "
Her hand holding the phone and her head fell even lower . Then, tears the size of pearls fell on the asphalt, creating a rhythm of sorts .
Those were the cruel words that he had told her on the night he rejected her . When he said those words, his heart had been twisting with pain . However, he had still forced them out of his lips . The main reason was because he wanted her to give up on him, but he did not expect that they would cause the girl such emotional trauma .
Su Zhinian's heart broke into pieces as he stared at the girl who was crying soundlessly . His lips were moving, and he was about to call out her name when the girl slowly sat down to the floor and curled up into a ball . With a voice that was as airy as fog, she started to talk into the phone again . "Su Zhinian, I don't want to be a bother in your life, but I really love you . Can't we pretend that the confession didn't happen and return to the state of being friends?"
As she continued to talk, she began to choke on her tears . "I promise not to fall in love with you, to not let you find out I'm in love with you . If you need a greater assurance, I can find a boyfriend or even get married . That way, I wouldn't be able to cling onto you anymore . It's a happy ending for both of us, right? That way, we will only be friends . That way…"
She suddenly raised her head to look at him . There were two globes of light shining at the bottom of her teary eyes . They spoke of hope as she breathed out . "…That way, we'll be able to be just friends, right?"
Su Zhinian felt like someone was using a knife to carve through his heart . Blood gushed out of his heart, and the pain seeped into his bones and marrow .
