452 Her Approach 5 (1/2)

Song Qingchun's mind was completely blank. She stared at Su Zhinian dumbly and unblinkingly like she was stunned into a mental shut down.

When Su Zhinian's gaze fell on her, his expression remained the same. He continued walking leisurely down the steps until he reached one meter in front of Song Qingchun and stopped.

He was much taller than she was, so he was looking down at her.

As if stirring from her daze, Song Qingchun slowly raised her eyes to look at him.

The afternoon sun filtered into the room through the living room's floor-length window. It fell right onto his face, lighting up his features with a golden hue.

Song Qingchun's heart skipped a beat, and after a half-second hesitation, she quickly lowered her head.

He stood immobile before her. Even though she didn't look at him, she knew that his eyes were boring into her as if quietly questioning her, Why are you still here?

She quivered under his gaze and reached out to grab at the end of her sleeves. Then she whispered an explanation. ”You're still recovering, and too much take-out is bad for you, so I…”

As Song Qingchun continued, her voice became smaller.

He already said we no longer share a relationship. I've lost the right to even cook for him… The more I explain, the more bothered I will appear in his eyes. I should have just turned and left.

The feeling that had welled up in her heart that afternoon when she said her goodbye returned. She bit her lips and blurted out, ”…I'll go now.”
