240 From a Moment to an Eternity 1 (1/2)

This was the first time Song Qingchun had heard that, and at that moment, she didn't realize it was related to herself. It was not until much later that she realized how nuanced the meaning of that sentence was, more than the literal meaning, he was giving her a hint; alas, it had fallen on deaf ears.

If there was no Su Zhinian, she believed, after that long deep-night conversation between the two of them, the person Song Qingchun would soon have disappeared from the world.

Song Qingchun was stunned when she heard that sentence. She had no idea whether she was startled by the emotions of the sentence itself or the enveloping sadness in Su Zhinian's tone when he said it.

Regardless, she was stunned for a long time until Su Zhinian opened his lips to continue. ”This sentence is probably the most appropriate sentence to describe my story with her.”
