"When you were by my side before, I never felt lonely. But that one night," Wen Ming said, her eyes reddening without her realizing it, "that one night, my emotions just suddenly surged. The more I thought about it, the more I felt like the whole world had abandoned me."
"And then he drove over, and you two were like tinder and flame, a meeting of star-crossed lovers…" Tan You summarized for her. She had already seen their progress through the Beauty System. All she could say was that this was truly an adult romance; the pace was breathtaking.
'I'm still just a baby, why must I be subjected to this?'
Wen Ming sniffled. "I don't know what came over me that day. I just really wanted someone to hold me, or at the very least, just talk to me. As long as I wasn't alone. Being alone was just too hard to bear."
Tan You was silent for a long time. "In the end, it's because I wasn't there. I'm sorry."
