Zuo Qingqing kept her eyes closed until the sounds outside the door gradually faded away, then she slowly opened her eyelids, widened her eyes, and stared blankly at the ajar door.
There was no sound at all in the ward, it was eerily quiet.
She said, with her father's power, how could it be possible that he couldn't even find anyone for more than two months.
It turns out...this is the truth of the matter.
Tang Ziqian was not missing at all. Asking for leave and never returning home were all the excuses they used to deceive her. The real reason was that Tang Ziqian's enthusiasm for her had subsided. It was as simple as that.[
The truth that makes my heart hurt like a whip.
Uncle, please believe that I will love Qingqing sincerely in the future. Although, I don’t know how long this period will be, and I can’t guarantee that I will love Qingqing for the rest of my life... I can’t speak high-sounding words, but I hope,
I will be the one who makes the lifelong commitment.
Obviously, his words of assurance were spoken less than three months ago. Thinking about it now, it feels as if he heard it in the last century, so far away.
She thought that she really got close to his heart.
She thought that those words about him being unable to settle down were not true.
She thought he would stick to his promise.
She thought that they would really get married hand in hand.
She thought...
It turns out that all this is just what she thought...it's all what she thought...
Her chest tightened, as if something was broken, and a hot mist gradually filled her eyes, causing her to close her eyes and pretend that she had never heard this conversation.
The time he kept his promise was really short. It was almost the same as the flowering period of an epiphyllum. It only lasted one night. It was so fast that it withered before people could even react...
She didn't know that she was so talented in acting. Even though she was heartbroken and was about to die, she still acted like a fine person on the surface and continued to ask her father and Ah Cheng for news about Tang Ziqian as if nothing had happened.
Every time, I had to endure huge heartache and spend a lot of effort to pretend that I had no idea that Tang Ziqian didn't want to see him at all.
But she knew that if she didn't do this, her father would become suspicious and even more worried, and she didn't want her father to worry about her anymore.
So, she pretended to know nothing and heard nothing.
