She gently pulled her hand out of Qi Chen’s hand and placed it behind her back.

“If this were in the past, I would definitely agree to it immediately. But now, I don’t want to. Perhaps you don’t know, I’ve liked you for ten years. I know all of your habits by heart. Every time you do this, you only wish for me to come and go as I please. What am I to you, a dog that you’ve raised for so many years?!”

Yun Xi had never said such harsh words to Qi Chen. Before she could finish, her eyes turned red.

“Now that you’ve come to talk to me, don’t you think you’re being cruel? Love isn’t charity, and I don’t need your charity. You’re just relying on the fact that I like you.”

Qi Chen’s fingers trembled slightly. He raised and lowered them, but he didn’t say a word.

Yun Xi was right, but he hadn’t noticed it before.

“Do you feel like you don’t have anything to say? “Then go home. It’s getting late. If your family finds out, it’ll only make things worse. You don’t need to worry about Yun Huai’s matter. I’ve already found a solution myself. Don’t worry about it. Take care.”

Tears welled up in her eyes. Yun Xi didn’t dare to stay a second longer. After speaking, she retreated and closed the door behind her.

“Then… I’ll take my leave first. Take good care of yourself. We’ll talk next time when our emotions are more stable.”

After a long while, Qi Chen’s footsteps could be heard outside.

The moment he confirmed that he had left, Yun Xi’s entire body seemed to have been drained of energy.

Yun Huai wasn’t at home, so she didn’t even have anyone to confide in. She could only hide by the door and cry secretly.

It was already early spring, but the tiles on the ground still carried some coldness. Yun Xi squatted on the ground, her mind repeatedly replaying the past that she and Qi Chen had experienced together.

Ten years meant not only growth to Yun Xi, but also half of her youth.

And Qi Chen was the only person she had ever liked.

Her heart ached, and her stomach also felt uncomfortable. Yun Xi burped a few times in a row, crying so much that she did not even have the strength to stand up.

Just then, her phone suddenly vibrated.

Yun Xi picked it up to take a look and realized it was a message from Gu Linyan.

“Are you free now? I’m resting today. Do you want to go out for a walk? I heard that a new bar has opened in the south of the city recently. It’s free with me. It’s now or never.”

Yun Xi wiped away her tears and used her tears to quickly write three words on the screen.

“Go, where is it?”

“I’ll send you the location in a while. Pack up and go out first. Remember to wear thicker clothes, it might rain in a while.”

Gu Linyan looked like he did not care about anything on the surface, but there was an indiscernible meticulousness in his heart.

At the very least, at this moment, Yun Xi was indeed touched by his words.

The wind whistled outside the window. Yun Xi took out a denim jacket from the cabinet, which she wore a long time ago, and casually tidied it up before walking out of the house.

It was unknown if her emotions had affected the heavens, but just as she walked out of the building, rain began to fall from the sky.

The raindrops were very small, like a continuous line, carrying an unexplainable sorrow as they covered every corner she could see.

A sorrowful person would always be pessimistic about everything. Yun Xi was like this at the moment. Sometimes, she felt that Qi Chen was like rain to her and wouldn’t affect her progress, but it also made her angry and unable to see the road in front of her clearly.

She had been trapped for ten years, but in the end, she still couldn’t wait for the weather to clear up..
