Let go
The day Jiang and Jiang got their marriage certificate was Jiang Rou's birthday.
Lin Xing's house was filled with all sorts of small ornaments, and the light shining on the cake on the table made it particularly dazzling.
"Xing, where's my birthday present?" Jiang Rou asked Lin Xing, combing her long, black waves.
Lin Xing was reading in the study when she heard the sound and closed her book: "Wait a moment, let me look for it."
"I'm going to take a shower now." Jiang Rou walked into the bathroom.
Lin Xing started rummaging through the table when suddenly a letter slipped off.
The contents came into Lin Xing's view:
To Ah Xing:
Today is April 1, 2012, your birthday. This is the first year I've celebrated your birthday with you.
Although we've only known each other for six months, you hold a very important place in my heart.
I met you on a sunset. We had a little disagreement that day, but we resolved it smoothly. From that day on, my life was painted with a layer of light.
You are a wonderful boy. You would sweetly call me Teacher Qiu, get jealous over a notebook, make me a star lantern a few days before my birthday, and protect me without hesitation when I was being chased by thugs.
At that time, I truly believed I was the happiest girl in the world.
After your birthday, can you come back and continue your tutoring? I really miss you.
Finally, happy birthday to our little birthday star, Ah Xing! May you be happy every day.
Also, I've liked you for a long time. If you see this, could you please reply?
Song Huan
March 2017
Lin Xing's body trembled uncontrollably. He picked up the envelope and stared intently at the signatory on the letter.
Song Huan.
Every time Lin Xing sees this name, her heart aches terribly.
How badly did he hurt the princess he loved so much?
Lin Xing wanted to slap herself hard.
He clearly had a chance, he clearly had a chance, but he only saw this envelope, which had been sealed for eight years, now.
He hated himself for not realizing it sooner, for not confessing his feelings sooner.
"Ding." A message came through her phone, and Lin Xing blankly scrolled through the message.
It was posted by Song Huan.
[They're together now, Jiang Rangshi.]
The picture shows them walking out of the Civil Affairs Bureau, holding their marriage certificates.
Lin Xing felt as if her heart was being torn apart, and she glanced at the comments section.
A: [A perfect match.]
B: [To the two of you, I wish you happiness.]
Lin Xing slowly put down her phone, tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and silently shed a tear.
Ah Qiu, it turns out that letting go is really a very, very difficult thing.
