Chen's mother's face turned pale, and before she could answer, Si Chengye said:
"But I like you, I love you very much. Ayu, more than twenty years ago, I had fallen in love with you. My feelings for you have never changed. It's just that back then I didn't realize my love for you in time, and it wasn't until I lost you that I knew how much I loved you."
Chen's mother widened her eyes in shock. She had never expected Si Chengye to have fallen in love with her, even back then!
Si Chengye let out a bitter laugh, "You must find it hard to believe, right? Even I myself didn't want to believe it at first, but I had truly fallen for you and couldn't forget you anymore..."
What was this, fate's cruel joke?
She had left him back then, filled with heartache, yet happiness had been so close at hand...
They missed each other by just that little bit, and that missed opportunity lasted for over twenty years.
In life, how many "over twenty years" does one have?
