So I decided to stay by your side, or rather, shamelessly stick around, waiting for you to understand what you really want. If by then you still reject me, I’ll truly give up.
“But people really do want more…” he sighed softly, “Unknowingly, I wanted to hear you say you liked me. That rejection at the Longyun Club was really hard to bear, but I still wanted to try again. Forgive me for lying that I was leaving, but the disappointment and sadness you showed when you believed me made me happy.
Those days on the island were unforgettable for me. You agreed to marry me, you gave me your everything.
I told you I want to marry you in every time and space, and I’m not joking. I truly mean it. No matter which time and space, I only want to be with you until we’re old.
But it seems I’ve never been that lucky. The people I value most, I can never stay with them for long.
In the end, you still chose to sacrifice for your family. I understand, so I didn’t stop you.
I shouldn’t have left this message, but I couldn’t help it…
I wish you could still stand before me, smiling slightly at me. You don’t know how beautiful your smile is…”
His voice choked, becoming intermittent and hard to distinguish.
Then there was silence. Yu Yi waited a while and heard her own voice again from the recording: “Who are you exactly?”
She gently released the jade dragonfly, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Meng Qing’s words were clearly sincere. He loved his wife deeply. He said this jade dragonfly only recognized his wife as its owner, and no one else could use it. But couldn’t she use it? Could his wife be referring to her?
Yu Yi laughed softly to herself. She had never seen him before, and she had never been married. How could she be his wife? It seemed he had mistaken her for someone else, perhaps his wife looked very similar to her, so even the jade dragonfly mistook its owner.
Yu Yi understood this and felt relieved, thinking that if she met him again, she would return the jade dragonfly and tell him, “You’ve got the wrong person.”
