Chapter 5
Until late at night, the pain of emotions spread uncontrollably to the physical level.
I pressed on my aching stomach, biting the back of my hand, the pain was so intense that I felt faint.
I vaguely felt a pair of big hands quickly lifting me up, and the usually calm voice became flustered.
In a daze, many past memories flooded into my mind like a tidal wave.
Since I met Ronald, our relationship has not always been smooth sailing, and we have experienced a breakup once.
It was the second year after falling in love, and there were no signs at all when he suggested breaking up.
At that time, I was still immersed in planning for the rare vacation trip, and when I heard it, I felt it was absurd.
me with shallow eyes, as if he was detached from the situation: “I can’t give you what you want.
He just looked at me
Just a moment ago, he was blaming himself for burning my hand.
I pondered for a long time, and couldn’t understand what could trap us, except for his lack of money.
It’s okay, let’s work hard together
“We were still so young, as long as we worked hard, we could definitely have everything we wanted
“And, I didn’t need you to have a lot of money either..
He interrupted me, just gently patting my head, as if we would never suo each other again in the rest of our lives.
“Elsie, I’m sorry, I hope you will encounter something better.”
At that time, who wasn’t full of youthful vigor, with a proud and independent spirit, believing that anyone could be someone special,
So, I didn’t hold back, didn’t cry, just pretended to be calm and proud: “Ronald, in the end, you are a coward, and you didn’t love me that “Since it was like that, then let’s part ways amicably.”
If there was overwhelming love, how could you not even try and give up on me?
I thought I was determined enough, rational and clear–headed.
Because I used to weigh things, I would abandon anything that was not beneficial to me.
But these, in Ronald, were completely ineffective.

The person who disappeared after parting ways, thinking they would never see gach other again, was unexpectedly brought back together by fate.
It was an occasion that I could never set foot in, but coincidentally, I saw Ronald dressed in a suit
1 stared at him blankly, and he opened his mouth, the glass in his hand spun twice.
“L., driver, quite skillful…….
I nodded, didn’t speak, and walked straight past
Past him
But at that time, I always had an inexplicable premonition that perhaps If I missed this opportunity, I would never have a chance to fall in love in this
The rational person who was defeated by emotions for the first time in their life, bravely took a garpble.
I suddenly stopped my steps, pushed through the crowd, and ran towards him in the opposite direction
Ronald was still leaning against the dark side of the pillar until I walked up to him, and only then did I realize that he had been staring at me.
He was like that, looking at me, flowing against the crowd, giving everything to reach hin
I raised my head high and exclalined, “Ronald, I ask you this question only once, do you want to get back together with me? If you refuse, then our lives whd here.”
Only this time, I will only bow down humbly for the sake of loving you, and there will be no next time anymore.
Ronald lowered his head and remained silent for a while. Finally, he picked up his glass and gently tapped/ foolish”
on my raised forehead, saying, “You’re so

He was completely foolish, unable to perceive the implied meaning of “unable to give” and unable to see through his numerous flaws in disguise.
Chapter 6
When I woke up again, I was in the hospital, and the birds were already singing loudly at four o’clock in the morning.
Ronald’s skin was very fair, even more translucent against the backdrop of white walls and black hair. However, tonight he looked somewhat weary.
“Didn’t it get better? Why does it suddenly hurt so much?” He saw me wake up and reached out to gently rub my stomach.
There was a thermos on the bedside table that I had never seen before. Now that I think about it, it seems like there would always be some things in the house that I had never seen before.
He moved with my gaze and explained, “I ordered soup for takeout. If you feel better, would you like to have some?”
1 withdrew my gaze and moved my fingers: Do you know that the stomach is an emotional organ? Maybe my emotions got sick.”
He laughed, “Who bullied you? Tell me, I’ll take revenge for you!
As always, he had unconsciously said many similar things before.
I just turned a deat ear to it all. He was just an ordinary person with nothing but strength, what could he do for me?
When I had witnessed him verbally harassing me, I licked him hard and tried to speak less about the grievances I had experienced outside.
We couldn’t afford the compensation and medical expenses caused by a momentary impulse. I was willing to settle things peacefully as long as I could bear it
Only that one time, confronted workplace sexual harassment, risking being fired, collected evidence, published an article, and sued, but was suppressed by fabricated numÕES,
I collapsed when he casually asked a question, and I poured out my grievances in tears.
And Later, miraculously, things took a turn.
The e
ecompany initiated an unprecedented internal investigation, followed by police involvement. The manager, who had been sexually harassing a female employee for a long time, was taken into custody, and I also submitted my resignation.
I lifted the blanket, got out of bed, and put on my shoes.
He grabbed my wrist and said, “Where are you going?
“Going to work” I propped myself up in bed, looked up at him with a smile, “I’m feeling much better now, so hurry back and get ready for work, Don’t be
Take a sick leave for one day, 850 dollars, too expensive.”
“Eisie, don’t be silly.
“You go to work too,” I nudged him, “No taking leave”
Ronald consulted the doctor’s opinion, and the doctor respectfully followed behind him.
Many details that I used to ignore in the past, I can now see through at a glance.
Just like the fragrant and delicious soup in front of me, the homemade wine given by my colleagues at home, and the handmade pastries that I have never
seen outside.
In the morning, on my way to work, as I came out of the garage, I saw Ronald waiting by the roadside.
He said he didn’t like driving, so he bought this car. We rarely drive it except for occasional weekends.
After a while, I saw a black Land Rover parked in front of him, and then a driver got out aid bent down to help him open the door.
The car did not drive to Ronald’s company. Instead, it followed the Land Rover and headed straight to a secluded residential area after entering the second ring road
There was a sign prohibiting entry in the residential area, so I could only park by the roadside and watch Ronald’s car enter.
Shing in the car, I recalled the scene of helping him desperately revise his resume and find a job that year.
Every resung he submitted, from job intention to work experience and personal strengths, was meticulously polished by me, word by word, instead of being masa–distributed.
At that time, almost every resume could pass the screening of the target company smoothly, except when it came to the Interview stage. Even though I

could hit 80% of the interview questions every time and had countless interview rehearsals, he would always fail at the interview stage. Finally, only this inconspicuous company is willing to hire him. Fortunately, although the salary is not high, the benefits are top–notch. Ronald didn’t spend much money. His monthly salary was always deposited into my card, and I would specially prepare pocket money for him.
In the past, it seemed like scenes supported by love, but now I realize that they were all things that others didn’t care about.
