The phone’s screen turned off and then on again, over and over, until finally, she didn’t hesitate anymore and pressed to call.

The phone had just started to ring when it was answered on the other end.

The image of Wen Yanqing sitting on the balcony, waiting by the phone, surfaced in Lin Gantang’s mind.

Lin Gantang didn’t speak, and from the other side came a hoarse voice: “Tangtang.”

“You knew it was me, huh? Were you missing me?” Lin Gantang asked softly.

Lin Gantang knew he missed her. She had followed him these past days, silently observing him, watching him restless and sleep-deprived, seeing him holding a ring until his eyes reddened.

She also heard him calling out her name in his restless sleep at night.

Of course he missed her, but she knew he wouldn’t admit it now. He probably figured that since she was willing to leave, she would gradually get used to life without him. Why should he disturb her, making her yearn and struggle to turn back?

“But I miss you.” Lin Gantang said, her eyes already red: “I won’t wear off-shoulder clothes anymore, nor short skirts, I won’t make male friends, I won’t do anything you dislike. I’ll come back to you, stop arranging things for me, okay?”

“Tangtang…”

“Look at your heart, see how it suffers without me. It says it’s in so much pain that it wants to die, it tells you to come find me.” Lin Gantang’s eyes brimmed with shallow tears, blurring her vision: “Now do you see? I left, but neither of us are happy with this outcome.”

“Don’t speak, I’m afraid I won’t like what you’re about to say.” Lin Gantang held back her tears and interrupted him: “I give you two choices. Just tell me your decision.”

On the phone, Wen Yanqing’s voice was hoarse and deep: “What choices?”

“I’m pregnant. One, you come to the Civil Affairs Bureau, we get married, and have the baby.” Lin Gantang heard a loud clang as if something had violently collided on his side. She lowered her head, tears in her eyes falling straight down: “Two, I terminate the pregnancy and start a new life abroad, never seeing you again.”

She bit her lip and said: “I am now in front of the Civil Affairs Bureau. I don’t want to wait too long. If you don’t come before the end of the workday, I’ll leave.”

After Lin Gantang finished speaking, she hung up the phone without waiting for a response and turned it off, terrified of receiving a call of rejection.

She watched the traffic come and go in front of her, the hurried footsteps of pedestrians, her gaze empty as it fell into the distance.

She didn’t know whether this would get her the desired result, but otherwise, when would their love stop wasting away?

She could wait and give him time. After all, Wen Yanqing had waited for her for eight years, so what was a little longer?

But he could stand still, he just absolutely couldn’t go backwards.

Then let her be the bad person. On the track of love, she’d break the rules, push others, either they’d both fall embarrassingly, or reach the finish line together.

Amidst the pairs coming and going, her solitary figure stood out in stark loneliness. Occasionally someone noticed her red eyes, gave her a few extra glances, and looking at the space behind her, probably assumed she was injured by love.

And they wouldn’t be far wrong, would they? Who could truly be untroubled by love, undisturbed by others?

Time slipped away minute by minute, Lin Gantang gazed in the direction of the road.

Anxious, worried, and unsettled.

Until she saw Wen Yanqing appear, rushing and anxious, and even wearing the home clothes he didn’t have a chance to change out of, she covered her mouth, and tears streamed down in an instant..
