“How is that possible?”
Meng Xi’s short hair that hung on her shoulder swayed slightly. “I don’t have the habit of destroying people’s relationships.”
Lin Jiao played with the ballpoint pen on the table. “Then are you going to keep the feeling in your heart?”
“No.” Meng Qi did not like to have a crush.
She met Lin Jiao’s gaze. “A relationship without feelings won’t last long. I can wait.”
“Waiting for what?”
“Wait for them to break up.”
Lin Jiao paused.
She grabbed the ballpoint pen and felt an indescribable pain in her heart like someone was clenching it.

“Why? There are very few people in his circle who can be loyal to each other.”
“It’s just not right to want people to break up.”
Meng Xi caught the change in her mood.
She lowered her eyes slightly. “I know it’s not right, but I can’t help but say it.”
“Then don’t tell me.”
“I’ll only wait two months.” She muttered to herself, “If they haven’t broken up, I’ll forget it.”
Lin Jiao did not respond.
She placed her hands on the keyboard, but her frustration was like a net that trapped all her thoughts.
Under the urging of time, the sun became weaker and weaker.
The colleagues who clocked out of work left one by one.
The elevator door by the corridor opened and closed.
When Lin Jiao arrived at the parking lot, she walked to the A3 and pounced into his arms.
She leaned close to his chest. “I miss you so much.”
“What happened?” Pei Zhi pinched her chin and raised her face to see her expression.
He asked softly, “Who bullied you?”
“No one.” Lin Jiao cupped his cheeks and closed the distance between them. “I just miss you.”
“Why do you look so sad then?”
“Do I?”
Pei Zhi sensed that she was different from usual and was lost in thought, trying to figure out what might have happened.
His absent-mindedness made Lin Jiao even more dissatisfied.
She pulled his tie down and kissed him.

He pulled out the long hair that had entered her collar.
His cold fingers caressed that face, and every touch was filled with gentleness.
“I’m not trying to hide.” Lin Jiao leaned on his shoulder, as if she wanted to be clued to him.
She pursed her lips. “How long will you like me?”
“That depends on how long I can live.”
Pei Zhi raised a hand and carried her to sit on his knees.
He stared at her side profile. “If I live long enough, I can probably like you for another sixty years.”
“How can you prove it?”
“My heart and body can prove it.”
A smile appeared in Lin Jiao’s eyes.
She pointed at his heart and asked, “What if you have a change of heart one day?”
“I don’t think that’s possible.” Pei Zhi was afraid that his glasses would poke her, so he took them off first.
He tapped the tip of her nose. “There is no space in my heart for someone else.”
Lin Jiao bit his index finger, leaving a series of teeth marks before letting go. “What if you’re tired of me and decided to replace me?”
