Under the starry night sky of Jiangshan City, she seemed to see her younger self, wearing ragged clothes, standing in a small town street as night fell, waiting for Shen Liangnian to come home from his vacation in the city.
In the small town at night, the lights were not as bright as in Jiangshan City. Walking down the pitch-black streets, one could see the bright moonlight. He and she were walking quietly, one behind the other.
Back then, both their faces were still youthful. He was not as steady and mature as he is now. The streets in the small town were full of potholes and puddles. She found it difficult to cross them, so he extended his hand and held hers, unintentionally brushing her skin. A shy blush would then appear on his face.
Such a beautiful past, youthful recklessness, happy times, but such a tragic ending.
At some point, the refined and handsome youth from that small town had fallen to be just like any other worldly being.
Only at this moment did she realize that the notion of an everlasting love was just a misunderstanding.
…
Liang Chen always maintained a moderate distance behind Jing Haohao.
When she walked fast, he followed suit. When she slowed down, he did likewise. When she stopped, he would stand under the street lamp twenty meters away, quietly watching her.
Her expression was somewhat blank. He couldn’t tell what was on her mind. The vivid neon lights illuminated her quiet beauty, mesmerizing him.
Many people darted back and forth between them, obstructing his line of sight. But with a slight turn of his head, he could always easily spot her in the crowd.
From a young age, he had always learned faster than others. At the age of eighteen, he had arrived in Jiangshan City with nothing and built his own empire.
He always believed that he was invincible.
But now, he realized that love was something he was only just beginning to understand.
As it turns out, loving someone is as simple as spotting her amid a crowd. The world may be black and white, but she colors it in.
Liang Chen’s expression softened for a moment, his eyes unwavering as they watched Jing Haohao. His gaze held an indescribable sense of awe, as if he was looking at the most beautiful thing in the world.
…
The singing in the shop abruptly stopped, pulling Jing Haohao back to reality. She glanced around at the crowd, then hurried towards the alley behind the large building.
Liang Chen stood still, only starting to follow her after her figure completely disappeared around the corner of the alley.
