Zhuo Yue was gone. He would never come back.
For Ye Lantian, who was still so young, this was an unbearably heavy blow.
She felt for herself that her best friend from the old days, the boy she had once liked, had just like that, cruelly and forever, left her.
She couldn't accept this reality.
Even though she'd known he would have to leave sooner or later, it all happened too suddenly, and it was while she was out having fun that he slipped away without a sound.
Her chest felt like a knife had been driven in, then twisted hard, over and over, from the inside.
It hurt, hurt so much she could barely breathe.
Her whole small body trembled violently as she lay sprawled in He Longze's arms.
He Longze carried her back to the car, wiping her tears while comforting her. "Little Devil, don't cry. This is… yes, it's a huge regret, it's heartbreaking, but if you keep crying like this, your body won't be able to handle it. Be good, don't cry anymore."
