Chapter 18

Half a month later, Chen Xu personally delivered the answer to me.

That morning, I walked into the law firm as usual.

Passing by the office next door, I saw Chen Xu sitting behind the desk.

He had switched jobs to my law firm.

He moved everything to the city where I was.

I thought changing cities for someone was a crazy thing one would do only when young.

He made such a move at an age when he should be seeking stability.

I understood well that he hadn’t considered turning back.

I said, “Chen Xu, you must be crazy.”

He came prepared with an answer:

“Shen Shuyue, I’m not here to force you to make a decision.”

“Slowly getting closer to you is my sincerity, whether you accept it is your freedom.”

“If you never fall in love with me, you can keep me hanging for a lifetime.”

Back in college, he told me:

“Don’t love someone who only leaves you their back.”

“Love someone who faces you and runs towards you.”

That’s what he said, and that’s what he did.

It turned out the question of suitability and love wasn’t that difficult.

Because love will overcome all difficulties.

The question Xu Siyan couldn’t solve, Chen Xu solved effortlessly.

At that moment, my heart, calm for so long, was stirred.
