Xu Jiamu softly said "Goodbye", then opened the door. He quietly walked out, then gently helped Song Xiangsi close the door.
She was suddenly the only one left in the room. She sat in front of the dining table, staring at the dishes on the table. Then, she picked up a spoon and took a mouthful of porridge.
It was sweet and warm. As it slid down her throat, she couldn't help but let her tears fall.
It was as though she was replaying a movie in slow motion, scene after scene flashed past her mind.
He used blood to make a deal with her, but in the end, in the hotel, he didn't do anything, he just left like that.
He waited with her outside her father's surgery. He crouched in front of her, helping her massage her sprained ankle.
He promised her to act as her boyfriend. He made her father so happy. He didn't mind washing his father's urine stained clothes.
He had always been pampered, but in her house in the countryside, he slept on the sofa for so many days. He sat for so many meals without complaint, and even pulled out all the weeds on her mother's grave.
He was the one who arranged everything after her father's death. He knew she was sad, so he stayed by her side.
In the middle of the night, she ran out alone and cried her heart out. He was the one who found her and brought her home. She was afraid of thunder, so he stayed by her side the whole night. He gave her his phone number many times, saying that she needed his help. He even built a tombstone for the child he thought was dead...
What should she do... The more she thought about it, the more she felt like she had to compromise.
The iron wall that she had built when she left him was starting to crumble.
Tears streamed down her face as she ate the porridge. As she ate, she suddenly put down the spoon in her hands and abruptly stood up. She kicked the chair behind her, and without even changing her shoes, she pulled the door open and chased after him.
She wanted to return to China. She wanted Little Red Bean to return to her name. She wanted to have a family, she wanted to find someone to rely on. She didn't want to stay in America, she didn't want to be alone anymore...
When she rushed to the street, she saw Xu Jiamu hail a taxi and leave.
Without a second thought, she chased after the taxi.
There was a speed limit on the street, so the taxi drove very slowly, but the distance between them grew.
Xu Jiamu sat in the taxi and shut his eyes.
He had always known that he missed her, but only when he saw her did he realize how much he missed her.
This time, he was only able to see her because of her call. He didn't know when they would meet again.
Perhaps, after this farewell, they would never meet again in this lifetime.
A lifetime... At that thought, Xu Jiamu couldn't help but lower his head to look at his palm.
Once upon a time, he also held her hand … but in the end, as they held and held, he lost her hand.
A hint of sadness surfaced in Xu Jiamu's eyes. He couldn't help but turn his head to look out of the car. Then, his gaze landed on the rearview mirror.
He stared at the rearview mirror for a long time. As if he had confirmed something, he suddenly said to the taxi driver, "Stop!"
In his desperation, he blurted out in Chinese. The taxi driver didn't understand, so he asked in English in surprise, "What?"
Xu Jiamu hurriedly switched to English and said it again. Then, the taxi driver slammed on the brakes. Before the car came to a complete stop, Xu Jiamu threw a bill, pushed open the door, and hurriedly got out.
