When Xuan Tianyi got to the hospital's car park, Shen Rui's car was still there. In a hurry, he walked towards the car. When he peered through the passenger side's window, he saw Shen Rui was leaning her head on the steering wheel. Crying. Gently, he tapped the window.
Shen Rui quickly wiped her tears and rolled down the window. With a small sad smile, she said to him, "I wasn't expecting you to come back out here with me."
Xuan Tianyi didn't return her smile. Bluntly, he asked, "What was that about?"
"I... I don't know." She shrugged.
Xuan Tianyi nodded, then said. "Tell me. I want you to tell me the truth. And nothing but the truth."
Shen Rui shook her head. "You're not nearly strong enough to handle the truth."
"Shen Rui," Xuan Tianyi spoke softly. "I honestly don't think you're a bad person. And I want to prove that to Hua Zhendan. I just need your help with that. Open up to me. I promise I won't be mad at you."
Well, that's it. The last chapter. I won't call this a sad ending because they both obviously still have strong feelings for each other.
New volume called "The mail-order bride" begins tomorrow. Although it focuses on a different couple, we'll get to see more of the characters in this volume. Hopefully, Hua Zhendan and Xuan Tianyi would be able to fix their relationship then.
