Chapter 67 You Must Be Happier Than Me 3/2.23.58...
“You…” An Rufeng’s eyes widened, speechless.
Kwon Ji-yong approached An Joo-feng, put his arm around her, and whispered in her ear, "I won't commit suicide. I will live a good life. You should reconsider the spot."
An Rufeng froze, and in a flash, she seemed to understand why he was acting strangely: "You know?"
Kwon Ji-yong gave a soft "Mmm": "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have pressured you. I'm sorry." Tang Yu had told him the significance of the spot, and he had struggled with it for a long time.
“It’s okay if you don’t leave my information. You can become friends with Aunt Qiu after meeting her three times without leaving your information, and so can we.”
"Our destiny must be set in heaven."
“I…” An Rufeng’s throat was dry, and she didn’t know what to say. Every time she met Aunt Qiu, she would have a deep relationship with her. A big reason for this was that Aunt Qiu’s cat would be caught by Watanabe, and one of her spots was reserved for remembering Watanabe. She would only meet Aunt Qiu if she had contact with Watanabe.
In the vast sea of people, the probability of meeting someone three times and developing a deep relationship each time is too low.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think I would need this spot, and I never expected to meet you." Otherwise, even if Watanabe was a murderer, she wouldn't have used up a spot so easily.
"Don't say sorry, it will make me feel guilty and sad. Don't let me stop you from being the carefree and unrestrained Anru person you want to be because of me, okay?"
Faced with the choice between his lover not being able to see his parents and him not being able to see his lover, Kwon Ji-yong chose the former.
Anru Feng is now caught in a dilemma between her parents and her lover.
She didn't want to lose either side.
Recently, people around Kwon Ji-yong have noticed that he is acting strangely.
He had just announced his relationship and was preparing to propose not long ago. He should be very happy now, but he was surrounded by a sad atmosphere.
Even the fans noticed.
During a media interview, when asked about his love life, Kwon Ji-yong, who usually refuses to answer, surprisingly gave a reply.
"If I can get married, I would like to get married as soon as possible."
It's clearly a statement full of hope, yet it's contradictory, carrying an atmosphere of both happiness and sadness.
Happiness is having someone like that, someone wonderful. Sadness is knowing he'll soon lose her.
When fans saw the interview, they sensed Kwon Ji-yong's pain. They thought he was sad because he couldn't get married due to his idol status. They had mixed feelings and felt sorry for him. Even the fans who were hoping for the two to break up were wavering.
Kwon Ji-yong was unaware of the fans' complicated feelings, and he didn't have time to care, because An Ru-feng was really leaving.
On the day An Rufeng left, Quan Zhilong took her to the airport.
Kwon Ji-yong took out a simple ring, casually handed it to An Ru-feng, and said with a smile, "Let's wear matching rings as a keepsake."
Kwon Ji-yong shook his left hand, which was adorned with various ornate and elaborate rings. On one of his fingers was a simple ring that seemed out of place, similar to the one he had given to Anjou Feng.
Kwon Ji-yong originally planned to give the engagement ring to An Yeo-feng as a keepsake, but he didn't want to tie her down, so he decided against proposing. The engagement ring was too flashy and could be easily identified as an engagement ring, so he gave her a simpler one instead.
It was a very simple plain ring, decorated only with a circle of small diamonds on the outside, and his and her names engraved on the inside: KwJiYong & Anru Feng.
Actually, the ring on his hand and the one he gave her were a pair of matching rings, which he prepared for daily wear after marriage.
Unlike his usual elaborate and ornate tastes, it is very low-key, which is the minimalist style that Anjou Feng likes because it is easy to match with her usual style.
Furthermore, he felt that wedding rings didn't need any fancy or expensive decorations; his lover's name was enough to make the ring shine and be precious.
He has now given up on proposing, so he's just giving her a regular couple's ring as a keepsake.
Anru Feng took the ring and put it on the ring finger of her left hand.
Just right.
Kwon Ji-yong watched as An Yeo-pung put the ring on the ring finger of his left hand, his eyes flickered, a fleeting mix of sadness and joy passing through them.
Inside the waiting room, the soft yet slightly cool lighting evenly illuminated the polished floor and rows of seats.
The waiting room wasn't crowded, and there were occasional quiet conversations that reached their ears intermittently, but they had nothing to do with the two of them.
Anru Feng had a lot to say, but didn't know where to begin, and in the end said nothing.
Kwon Ji-yong didn't say anything more.
The atmosphere fell silent as the two sat quietly in the waiting room, waiting for their flight.
When it was time to board the plane, Kwon Ji-yong escorted An Yeo-poong to a place where he could not go any further.
Kwon Ji-yong broke the silence, gently touching An Yeo-feng's face and gazing at her intently, as if wanting to imprint every detail deep in his heart.
"I will live well, and I hope we can meet naturally. If we can't meet, it's okay. I hope you find your destined one and live happily, even if that destined one is not me."
Kwon Ji-yong's expression was gentle, and his tone was calm and soft, "You must be happier than me."
An Rufeng's nose tingled, and her eyes instantly reddened.
"Don't cry." Kwon Ji-yong wiped away her tears. The announcement was urging them to leave, so he turned around for her. "It's time to go."
Anru Feng dragged her heavy steps toward the boarding gate.
Brother Li was waiting for An Rufeng not far away. When An Rufeng walked up to him and they started walking together, An Rufeng couldn't help but turn around and look at Quan Zhilong.
Kwon Ji-yong remained standing in the same spot. When he saw An Joo-fung looking over, he gave her a gentle smile.
Kwon Ji-yong kept smiling as he watched An Ru-feng turn around, until he could no longer see her figure, and then his smile faded.
Kwon Ji-yong looked in the direction where An Joo-feng had disappeared, standing there for a long time with a calm and expressionless face.
He turned and left, got into his car, but didn't start it immediately. Kwon Ji-yong looked up at the sky quietly.
As planes flew overhead, tears welled up in his eyes without him even realizing it.
