519 Fu Qinglun Had Stood Lin Shiyu Up (1/2)

Zi Jun had written her a letter, asking to meet at nine o'clock under the pavilion.

Zi Jun had set up a meeting with her.

Lin Shiyu took a look at the clock, it was half past eight, she still had half an hour to prepare.

And so she quickly entered the bathroom and took a warm shower before getting changed and heading out to the designated meet up point.

She was finally going to meet Zi Jun in person after exchanging letters with each other for three whole years.

She would find out if he was really Fu Qinglun once she met him in person.

…

Under the pavilion, Lin Shiyu was seated while waiting for Zi Jun's arrival.

It was cold at night, especially since they were at a higher altitude. She wore a black overcoat and her damp, wavy hair was let down, complementing her tiny face and she was indescribably beautiful.

She lowered her eyes to check her phone for the time, it was already nine o'clock and yet he hadn't arrived.

He was late.

Lin Shiyu walked out of the pavilion, stretching out her hands, feeling the tiny drops that were starting to drizzle down from the sky.

It landed on her palms, those transparent rain drops.

Why wasn't he here yet?

Was he really Fu Qinglun?

If he really was, then what exactly was Fu Qinglun planning?

She had started exchanging letters with Zi Jun since she was 16 and when she turned 18, Fu Qinglun had forced her to get married to him.

He knew who she was then.

What was in his mind when he married her?

Lin Shiyu was not only intelligent but also very analytical, she pieced the events that happened over the past few years together and had understood almost everything.

He had hugged her tightly while muttering in her ears—- Shi'shi, I like you, I really like you very much…

Shi'shi.

Oh, she was suddenly reminded of something again.

He had claimed that her mother told him about her nickname, he was actually lying!

She spotted a black umbrella in her peripheral vision, someone had arrived and sheltered her with it.

Zi Jun had arrived, at least she thought so.

She fluttered her eyelashes and slowly turned around.

But it wasn't Fu Qinglun in front of her, but rather… Fu Jingtong.

Lin Shiyu paused for a moment. ”Jingtong, why are you here?”

Fu Jingtong wore a black coat and had a navy blue scarf around his neck. He appeared very much like a prince charming.

He had sheltered Lin Shiyu from the rain with the umbrella in his hands while looking in her eyes affectionately. He had noticed that she her eyes were gleaming with expectation when she first turned around but when she realized that it was him, it quickly dissipated and she seemed disappointed.

He wasn't the one she was waiting for.

There was a moment of awkwardness and Fu Jingtong quickly smiled. ”I accompanied my friend here to visit the hot spring and noticed you from afar. It's currently raining, are you waiting for someone?”

Lin Shiyu checked the time again, it was already half past nine.

He didn't turn up.

He had stood her up.

”I'm not waiting for anyone, let's go back to the hotel together.” Lin Shiyu laughed it off.

…

Along the corridors.

Lin Shiyu and Fu Jingtong were walking while discussing the album when Lin Shiyu suddenly jolted. She saw two familiar figures in front.
