Elvis' spine stiffened, and it was as if his blood had solidified in that moment. For a long while, he was out of breath, and could only stare right at Gu Mengmeng, whose determination and certainty shone through her clear and doe-like eyes. Elvis knew that such an expression was more than just the stubborn words of a female.
She was really going to depart from his life.
His left chest stopped beating for a while, then let out a deafening sound which was so loud it caused Elvis' eardrums to buzz continuously. Blood rushed to his eyes, blurring his vision.
Turning around resolutely, Elvis only said, "You don't have to go."
Taking big strides, he took his leave.
As she watched Elvis' back view, Gu Mengmeng felt as if she was going to be swallowed by her own guilt.
Damn, rejecting someone is truly stressful, Gu Mengmeng could only hope that she would never have to do it a second time.
