Lu Yanchen ignored her, so s.h.i.+ Guang heaved in with a deep breath of air before confronting again. “Oi?”
However, he still ignored her.
“Lu Yanchen.”
Still ignoring…
s.h.i.+ Guang was a little speechless and dumbfounded. She could not help but mutter out, “No idea which tantrum it is again this time around.”
Even though she was really soft, Lu Yanchen heard it all the same. His expression changed as he gripped his fist really tightly, clearly trying his best to endure everything without saying anything once more.
The lift stopped at the 11th floor. s.h.i.+ Guang did not want to argue with him and was ready to get out. But the moment she took a single step, she was held back by someone from the arm. Before she could even react to it, she felt herself being tugged back before colliding into Lu Yanchen’s embrace.
She was shocked. “What are you doing?”
Lu Yanchen said nothing, merely watching her silently with eyes as cold as a thousand years old iceberg. She was so surprised that she did not move at all, merely staring at him back with widened eyes.
She did not know how she had offended him again. He was clearly the one who had b.u.mped into her earlier on, but right now, he looked as though he was all ready to toss her down from this building.
Thankfully, there were no windows in the lift.
Ding!
The lift arrived on the 12th floor as the doors opened once more. Lu Yanchen blinked his eyes slowly and collected his emotions before letting go of her and walking out without a single word. s.h.i.+ Guang was rooted on the spot with a flabbergasted face.
Ever since that incident with Yang Sitong beneath their apartment, this was the first time they had met in the days after. But, she didn’t recall offending him in any way.
…
Lu Yanchen slammed the door harshly after entering. He did not switch on the lights, merely walking into his bedroom where the slivers of moonlight seeped in. The house was dimly lit with the moonlight, and filled with a deafening silence.
He collapsed onto his bed, staring at the ceiling coldly. His eyes were so cold that they seemed fake, as there was no light in them–he was merely staring up ahead vacantly.
His brows quivered slightly, seemingly thinking about something. Suddenly, he bolted up as though he was frustrated. Raising his leg, he kicked the cabinet at the front of the bed with all his strength, venting his frustration.
The force was so great that the entire cabinet fell over, causing the drawers to slide out and the things within to spill out.
Within it laid a red velour box.
When he saw that box, his face turned even darker as he bent over, wanting to pick it up and throw it out. But, his hand had barely finished with the arc of motion when he came to a stop.
Heaving a deep breath of air, he walked to the edge of his bed and sat down. After a moment of silence, he opened the box.
There was a ring within–a plain looking crystal ring. However, the design on the crystal was rather special.
It was made of two interconnected hearts with two English characters–C and G.
The back of his name started with C while hers started with G.
Back in the third year of high school, she was always studying every day in order to get to her dream school. Be it in school or back at home, she would just be facing the books.
He was really afraid that she might overdo it, and on a random afternoon, he forced her to head out. As they pa.s.sed by an accessories shop, they caught sight of that ring. s.h.i.+ Guang pointed at the ring to him. “For it to put in the English characters of the last word of our name into the heart-shaped crystal, don’t you think that the ring was made just for us?”
My heart… T_T
