It's late afternoon. The fiery sunset dyes the horizon a dreamy red. Beautiful. but with a little sorrow. The tall clock tower carries the light on its back. Turned into a black silhouette. Occasionally, birds pass by. With a few lonely screams. It makes people feel a little desolate in their hearts.

Hour. Ancient bells ringing beautiful musical bells. Calm and mournful music swirls between the clouds. Time always passes inadvertently. Another moment of waiting was passed.

Su Han's mood gradually precipitated. As the minutes tick by. She always wanders alone at the intersection. Probe look. I didn't see anyone coming.

Who could it be? Why did Xuan leave her temporarily. Leave her alone here and wait.

She had countless conjectures in her mind. and was dispelled by herself one by one. It's just that the scenery in front of me is as beautiful as an oil painting. She was intoxicated unconsciously. I don't know who it is. I want to enjoy this beautiful scenery with her. Watch the sunset with her......

Long. Behind her came the sound of a man's footsteps. It was a very soft voice. Very slowly. But it's familiar.

At the moment when the footsteps were recognized. She didn't turn her head right away. But it's just a blink of an eye. Two inexplicable tears have fallen unconsciously......

"Hanhan." He gently called her name. That soft, magnetic voice. As first acquaintance.

Just a call. Her heart melted completely. Maybe it's because she's too fragile right now. Unprepared for his arrival.

Why would it be him. How did he find her? It seems like they've not seen each other in a long, long time... Recent. So much has happened to her. Did he already hear about it?

She didn't know what to do with him. She had to choose to escape.

"Hanhan. Did you hear that. It's me. Why don't you turn around." Lu Tianming smiled slightly. He put the suitcase he was dragging on the ground.

In the end, there is nowhere to run. He has appeared on her life path. His love. It is destined to be a catastrophe that she cannot escape in her life.

She smiled to herself. Gloomily turned around.

At the moment when they met his eyes. She realized how lonely she was. Even the best friends of the past can't face it now.

In fact. Just say hi. Why should she think so much. Hello. Maybe that's enough.

She always thinks too much......

Lu Tianming saw that Su Han had been silent. He had no choice but to smile: "Hanhan. I'm sorry. Didn't it disturb you and Ye Junxuan?"

When she called Su Han, it was her man who answered the phone. Lu Tianming told himself self-deprecatingly. Today's Su Han is no longer the childhood buddy who could be called out to play at will. Now she has a lover. has a life of her own. Maybe. His childhood sweetheart is really redundant.

It's also good. At least he can leave without any concern. That might be the best thing that will turn out.

Su Han saw Lu Tianming dragging a suitcase in his hand. Puzzled, he asked, "You... Is this where to go?"

The corners of Lu Tianming's mouth raised slightly. Nodding: "Hmm. Han Han. I'm leaving."

Leave......

After a dialogue. The two fell silent again.

Su Han's gaze wandered left and right. She didn't dare to ask more. Because I'm afraid to hear that true answer later. She's going to have a complete breakdown.

"Where are you going?" She still bravely asked. Although her voice had begun to tremble.

Lu Tianming always smiled gently. He replied calmly: "Go to England. Continue to study for a master's degree."

United Kingdom. He's leaving City A. Once again, I went to such a distant and strange country....

"I passed the initial examination at the University of Cambridge. Already accepted by them. So. I'm going to live there for a year." Lu Tianming continued to explain. From start to finish. He had a smile on his cheeks.

"You're going to study abroad again." Su Han finally reacted. Little by little, her vision was blurring. But. She really didn't want her to see herself vulnerable." When did you decide... Why am I. I've never heard you say that."

She's his best friend. He decided to go abroad for graduate school. Why didn't she know at all. Why didn't it know until today.

Since Lu Tianming returned from studying abroad. Su Han always thought that he would never leave again. She waited so long for him. Gave all his youth. Don't. This is not yet possible to exchange for a so-called eternity....

Lu Tianming didn't explain her doubts. He. Just chose to keep smiling.

Actually, it wasn't something he deliberately didn't tell her. It's because the lives of the two of them are getting farther and farther apart. Right now. He doesn't belong to her world. She also went into other people's worlds...... So. She'd be so oblivious to everything about him. That being the case. There was no need for an explanation.

"Eight o'clock in the evening on the plane. Two hours to go." Lu Tianming raised his left hand and looked at his watch. His tone was always calm.

He was telling her an unchangeable truth in another two hours. He'll leave her a second time.

Why is this happening.......

Su Han couldn't help but take a half step forward. She stared into his eyes. Said hopelessly: "Tianming. You're really going to go. Are you sure."

She wasn't prepared at all... Why did he only tell her now. Still is. He hadn't intended to tell her at all. They're just a chance encounter, a coincidence.

Seeing Su Han's anxious look. Lu Tianming also felt a little comforted in his heart. At least she still cares about him. He was to her. Not completely innocuous and itchy.

"Before leaving. I've got something for you." Lu Tianming opens the zipper of the suitcase. Took out a box from the outermost layer. It was handed to Su Han: "Give."

Su Han stretched out his hands. But she felt her hands tremble. Finally got that box. Very light. I don't know what's inside.

She didn't dare to guess at will. What kind of parting gift he would give her.

"Open it and take a look." His gaze flashed with warm affection. Seems to be looking forward to it.

Su Han gently pulled the lid. At the moment of opening the box. She almost stunned a lot of paper hearts. A wide variety of colors. It's really beautiful stacked together......

Lu Tianming had already guessed Su Han's reaction. He held the box with one hand. Calmly said: "I folded for four years. Not a day has passed."

Su Han's gaze twitched.

Four years. He folded paper peach hearts for her for four years. There are 365 days in a year. Those four years were......

"Maybe it's a coincidence." Lu Tianming picked one up casually. Put it in the palm of your hand and look at it. He smiled and said, "Fold it to your birthday. Exactly 1,314."

Tanabata. Her birthday. That was also the day he confessed to her. But. She politely rejected him.

Since that day. He never folded a paper peach heart again.1314 let his heart stop on this beautiful number forever.This is his greatest wish.And the only wish.The promise of a lifetime.Finally delivered to her today.

Listen to what he has to say. Looking at these lovely elves... Su Han burst into tears.

How much the hell has he done for her. She had so many things she didn't know. Hindsight. Now he's going to leave her again. Do the two of them always have to say goodbye in such a regretful way? Why......

Su Han wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes. Finally squeezed out a smile: "Why are you so good to me. Always guarding me like a knight..."

When she learned she was pregnant. It was Lu Tianming who accompanied her and comforted her; On the day she was so heartbroken that she wanted to kill herself. It was also he who said that he would die with her. Why is she only realizing this now. He never asked her for anything. He would rather stand silently in the corner. Even if the person in her heart is not him.

"I'm not a knight. Ye Junxuan is your knight." After speaking. Lu Tianming laughed self-deprecatingly. He raised his head and looked into Su Han's eyes and said, "No. He's more than just a knight. Or a prince. It's your destined prince."

Knight. Prince. Now he doesn't even have the qualifications to be a knight. Would it be a pity. Finally. He's going to say goodbye to the princess of his dreams. The one who accompanied her to the end was not destined to be him.

The taste of parting is like a cup of black coffee. But if you savor it. I can also recall a little sweetness from it. Life is always so imperfect. Everywhere is full of regrets.

Su Han didn't know what to say. Just standing aside and crying. In order to pursue their love. She has seriously injured the most important person in her life, Lu Tianming. She always reserved a most special place for him in her heart. Above friendship. Higher than love.

"Don't cry. Han Han. What's there to be sad about. I'll be back." Lu Tianming suddenly smiled. Gently patted Su Han's shoulder. When I get back. I hope you and Ye Junxuan are already married. And a cute baby around you."

Su Han smiled bitterly. Nod to him. He probably didn't know about her lifelong infertility. That's fine. She didn't want to add another layer of concern to him.

Lu Tianming looked at the time. One hand pulled the lever of the box. Smile at her and say, "It's not early. I have to go. Hanhan."

Are you going to leave now. She subconsciously took half a step forward. And he. Sure enough, I was keenly aware of her movements.

Lu Tianming half-turned around. showed a bright smile to Su Han: "I wish you happiness. Grow old together."

This is a blessing from the heart. Only they understand the weight of this blessing to each other. At least. He has no regrets.

Han Han once said that he likes Tianming's smiling face the most. Right now. He wanted this scene to be reflected in her heart forever. Always remember that there was a fool named Lu Tianming who liked her.

Lu Tianming finally turned around. With his sad figure. Step by step, he dragged his suitcase and left.

Su Han stood in place and watched him. In that twilight sunset. His figure looked so lonely. So lonely.
