In his eyes, Ming Mei had made up her mind completely. But this determination of hers brought no joy to Shen Nie.
Shen Nie let out a soft sigh, so faint it was drowned by the pouring rain.
He said, "On my way back, I had thought that if I didn't see you, I would just leave straight away. But unfortunately..."
You stayed here after all.
The more resolute and unwavering Ming Mei's departure, the deeper her feelings for Kang Chen were. So deep that every second Shen Nie witnessed it, his heart was tormented with pain.
Ming Mei's face was nearly frozen stiff. She wanted to smile, but she couldn't manage it.
She raised her hand and rubbed her cheeks. They were cold, ice-cold, and her lips were numb from the chill. Her icy hands pressed hard against her icy cheeks twice, but no warmth came from it. Ming Mei gave up and lowered her hand.
Ming Mei said to Shen Nie, "I said I've decided to leave, and naturally, I won't go back on my word. Staying any longer is no longer an option."
