Chapter 10

“Not…”

The rest of my words caught in my throat, choked with sobs.

I stood there for a long time.

Blinking.

My eyes were swollen and dry.

There were no more tears to shed.

All my tears had already been spent in the days gone by.

Until–

I heard the news of my brother’s death.

Only then did I realize I could still cry.

Ji Yuxuan’s voice was cool, but tinged with hoarseness.

“Can’t keep up the act anymore?”

“Brother…”

I reached out, wanting to touch him.

But the moment my fingertips brushed against him, I pulled back.

Ji Yuxuan spoke, “Ji Yutong, if you want to play games with me using the things in this diary, then you’re mistaken.”

He lowered his head, muttering, as if speaking to himself.

“I stopped… liking you a long time ago.

“I’m not that pathetic, liking someone who has hurt me again and again.”

Ji Yuxuan looked up helplessly, his eyes on the verge of shattering.

“Go out. I want to be alone for a while.”

I got up.

A stream of bullet screens followed me.

[Wuwuwu the male lead and female lead are about to break, I’m about to break too.]

[The brother thinks it’s his college diary, he doesn’t know that the things he’ll write in the future have already betrayed him.]

[Do you believe it? In his dreams from now on, it’ll always be that kiss brushing past his neck.]

My steps faltered.

Right before closing the door.

I asked Ji Yuxuan, “Your birthday is in half a month. Can I spend it with you that day?”

It had been a long time since I accompanied Ji Yuxuan on his birthday.

Ever since I met Qin Siyuan in my previous life, and up until now.

Ji Yuxuan’s figure froze.

With his back to the light, I couldn’t see the expression on his face.

I could only see his silhouette, blurred in the shadows.

He nodded and said, “Okay.”
