Unexpected romance

For the two of them, some things don't need to be said explicitly; often, a single expression or a simple word is enough to convey their feelings.

I really like the lyrics of that song.

Thank you for coming.

take care of yourself

You'll find someone better!

Feeling a bit flustered, I sat in front of the computer, repeatedly telling myself that this wasn't real, maybe it was just a joke, and that it would pass in time.

however……

But he knew that this time, perhaps it really was...

He didn't reply to her messages anymore, nor did he respond to her posts on WeChat Moments; he needed to calm himself down.

"Loving too deeply makes it too easy to sacrifice oneself."

It's too easy to let yourself get lost.

Too easily reckless, leaving behind only scars

I was so stupid, I knew you were the wrong person.

Knowing full well that this wasn't fate

But he still chose to risk everything.

The song brought him back to reality. It was almost noon, and the phone was still lying quietly in his hand. He would check it every now and then, imagining the moment the phone screen would light up.

He decided to turn on his computer, change into the red outfit he wore when he first met her, the familiar golden ponytail, and the familiar guitar!

I don't understand why he changed into this outfit. Perhaps, for him, it's time to put a period to everything.

The love letter casually states, "I won't interfere with your life; liking someone is my own business!"

When it all actually happened, he found he wasn't as calm as he'd made it out to be. Was it heartache, fear, or...?

He can no longer distinguish between them; he hides what he wants to say in songs, with each song representing a single sentence.

Now, his hand was on the mouse for a very long time, so long that he forgot about time!

I thought of countless ways to say goodbye, only to overturn them again and again. When I was tired, I would lean on something; when I felt sad, I would smile.

At noon, he made a decision: to return to that familiar stage, to the place that gave him so many wonderful memories, to dance for her one last time, and to send her a message via WeChat.

"No need to reply!" followed by a gentlemanly smile.

Shang tried her best to dance to that special number that had once moved her heart on the stage, but her fingers were no longer nimble, as if she had forgotten how to dance it. She made mistakes one after another and could not dance it well no matter what she did.

Finally, it was finished. Looking at the screen, a bitter smile appeared on his face, with a salty taste lingering on his lips.

He withdrew from the family, leaving no room for negotiation.

"Yu Sheng, please be happy, Shang!" After changing the signature, she found that tears had already welled up in her eyes. With her best wishes, she dragged her dejected body and curled up in the corner of the study, letting the alcohol numb her senses. Looking at her reply on the phone screen, tears once again slowly dripped down her cheeks onto the cold wooden floor.

He never denied her decision; it was all wishful thinking on his part. He wanted too much, so much that she couldn't bear it anymore.

"You must be happy in real life!" Shang murmured.

His mind was filled with that shy face, and the scenes he had experienced played back in his mind like a movie, over and over again.

He longed to reply to her, to say, "I really can't bear to part with you, I love you so much, to the core of my being!"

From the initial aloofness upon returning, to the gradual change, it's a truly wonderful feeling.

"Can I have you as my partner?"

"You are my pride!"

"It's mine!"

"..."

"I've lost you, and I can't find you again!" Shang repeatedly questioned herself.

He didn't regret his decision. From the moment he learned everything about her, he knew this day would come, but he didn't expect it to be so soon, nor did he expect to fall so deeply in love.

I keep my love for you hidden deep in my heart, afraid that it will suddenly come out, so I lock it away with layers of shackles.

I'm so happy to have met you, the best version of you, the most beautiful version of you, the most understanding version of you, the version of you that makes my heart ache and makes me want to hug you.

Shang didn't have time to say goodbye to everyone. Since he met Yu Sheng, everyone else had unknowingly become dispensable. His heart wasn't big enough to hold too many people; one woman was enough.

He used to secretly log on, secretly smile at her standing beside him, and his heart would race the moment she logged on. He would get nervous during parties, and couldn't do anything else but smile like an idiot every day.

Shang never thought of possessing her; he only wanted a corner of her heart to belong to him.

True love for someone is never about possession, but about giving and making sacrifices.

Shang is a man of few words. He doesn't say anything too mushy, and he usually lets his actions speak louder than words.

When she said, "I want to keep my distance from you!" Shang's inner hopes collapsed. He wanted to fall asleep, the kind of sleep he didn't want to wake up from.

I tried to suppress my longing and not reply, but I couldn't help but read the messages she sent me.

"I had no intention of giving up on you, yet you let go so decisively. I don't blame you; it's all my fault. If only I could have maintained my initial rationality. This morning I was still thinking about how to make it last longer, but I didn't want it to crumble so easily."

Best wishes to you! Perhaps this was the inevitable ending, but it's truly heartbreaking. I won't bother you anymore; I'll quit playing after receiving the flowers. Let's go back to the beginning! Let's focus on real life. Wishing you all the best!

After seeing these words, Shang could no longer hold back. He originally wanted to end it all that night, including all his memories.

But now, he wavered, and he... replied.

"It's not your fault, I asked for too much!"

His reply was a crying emoji.

"Please don't let you leave, okay?"

"Is it okay?" Shang asked himself.

"Can I manage on my own?" She has her own life, friends, and family, and I shouldn't bother her anymore.

"Can I have a day to calm down?"

"Yeah, I need to calm down too!"

The original decision was postponed for a day.

He cut off everything in the game, but still couldn't immediately sever his connection with her in reality. He originally only wanted to preserve this beautiful moment until the evening, but he compromised again. This was something that would never have happened to him before, but it quietly occurred.

Shang was conflicted and hesitant.

That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep, staring at her phone screen. She had attended a party where everyone else was in couples, while she was all alone, making her feel so different, so helpless, and so lonely.

"Did you attend their wedding?"

"Okay, I'll cancel now!"

"My head hurts a little!"

"pain?"

Shang stared at the screen, unsure how to describe her current feelings.

"It's raining in your city, and I don't dare ask, afraid you'll say you didn't bring an umbrella, and I'll be powerless to help!" Isn't this the same situation now?

"Get some rest!" This was perhaps the only care Shang could offer her.

"Too early, I can't sleep! Tomorrow should be better!"

"obedient!"

"I won't listen!"

Shang sent a sighing emoji.

I'll be online later tonight, will you wait for me?

"good!"

Shang put his phone in his pocket and walked towards the parking lot, eager to meet her.
