Feeling her rejection, Su Yuecheng gently persuaded her, "If there is a man in your future, why can't that man be me? We've spent a year together, and I don't know if you felt anything, but you've certainly made a deep impression on me."
"You left with Dudu, and it was only then I realized how important you are to me. I thought it was just habit, but it's been half a year, and I still can't get used to it." He lied, deliberately avoiding the unsavory parts of their acquaintance, but his love for her was genuine.
At first, his feelings for her were more out of guilt and a desire to make amends, but over time, her calm demeanor and gentle, considerate nature... slowly warmed his heart and made him want to know her better, to offer her more warmth.
Ziyan just listened quietly, her mouth slightly open but unable to utter a word, her hands stiff, even forgetting how to sign.
