687 The Fall 1 (1/2)

When she saw the caller ID, her whole body froze.

Beauty Su…

It was a phone call from Beauty Su…

It's 11 am. There's only one hour left until his departure time. Why would the man suddenly call me after the period of silence between us?

Song Qingchun could feel her heart racing for some inexplicable reason. She stared at the ringing phone in her hand as she took several deep breaths. Finally, she had the courage to pick up the call. The call was connected, and she heard his rather anxious voice say, ”Qingchun?”

Song Qingchun wanted to answer, but before she could say anything, she felt someone's hand clamp over her mouth from behind, and the phone fell from her fingers. She heard the phone land on the floor with a heavy thud. Then a black cloth covered her eyes, and she was dragged from behind by a powerful force.

…

Su Zhinian closed his eyes, but he was not sleeping. He was slowly counting down the time he had before his departure.

Actually, he knew he should not have felt so sad because when he discovered that secret so many years ago, this ending was already destined.

He knew that he should not have been so depressed—after all, they did share two nights together. Those two nights might have been nightmares for her, but they were dreams that he did not dare even wish for.

He should learn to be satisfied. After all, he had already shared a hundred days with her. There had been plenty of warmth, laughter, and kindness. Even though there was sadness and anger as well, he believed that when he sat alone in a foreign country in a crowd of foreign faces, he would smile at the memory.

He would spend the rest of his life hopping from one business meeting to the next.

The rest of his life would be too long because he could not be with her.
