Chapter 281: Chapter 281: He’s That Good

Shen Weiyi looked behind at Sheng Ting and said, "Don’t I seem like a coward, only knowing how to run away when faced with problems?" In fact, there were other better solutions, but she chose to deal with it in the most negative way.

She had always felt that since she couldn’t bear the life consequences of others, it was better not to forcefully light a lamp for someone else. In reality, it was nothing more than an excuse for her cowardice.

"It’s all in the past," Sheng Ting said. "And with me, we’ve never broken up."

"Then why didn’t you contact me?" Don’t you worry that I might fall for someone else during this time?

After all, a year is neither long nor short, long enough to start a new relationship.

Sheng Ting gazed down at her, his voice low and rich as a cello in the night, "With such a great distance between us, I wasn’t sure if the feelings between two people could be maintained, and since I couldn’t be by your side, contacting you wouldn’t change anything. It was better to let you peacefully do the things you wanted to do."

He had certainly thought about it; otherwise, he wouldn’t have considered giving up the opportunity to study abroad.

But with the distance, emotions maintained through the phone are ultimately too fragile. He couldn’t comfort her when she was disappointed, nor could he celebrate with her when she was happy. All the companionship through the phone was nothing but empty spiritual comfort, lacking any real significance. It was better not to contact her.

Sometimes, not having expectations can be more relaxing, more at ease. Life can also be simpler, happier.

Of course, he hadn’t done nothing.

"Didn’t you notice that the number of suitors around you decreased a lot this past year?"

Of course, there were not a few who liked her. But many were discouraged before they even took action. Or, some appeared only once and quickly gave up.

Honestly, Shen Weiyi hadn’t really paid attention to these things.

This past year, she spent most of her time and energy on studying and changing her major, not caring about anything else. Although from time to time someone would confess to her, she didn’t even remember what those people looked like.

But since he mentioned it...

"It couldn’t be related to you, could it?"

How could he manage things in China while he was abroad?

In the beginning, Sheng Ting indeed considered letting go.

However, later in the car that time, watching her drunk, he suddenly made a decision.

If he couldn’t rest assured, then he would have someone watch over her.

If she still ended up falling for someone else, it could only mean that their fate wasn’t strong enough.

Although the other person said nothing in the end, Shen Weiyi knew that in this past year, he must have done a lot of things she was unaware of.

"Sheng Ting, I’m sorry, it won’t happen again." A good relationship needs both parties to contribute.

Not all relationships are absolute; she can’t let her failed experiences with Jiang Zhiyi affect her relationship with Sheng Ting, as that wouldn’t be fair to him.

And moreover, he was so good, worthy of someone’s sincere devotion.

When the two left, they were one behind the other, but when they returned, they were holding hands, and others seeing them displayed knowing smiles.

Everyone played at the camp for three days and visited nearby attractions before heading back.

Shen Weiyi returned to the villa, rested for a night, and the next day when she woke up, she saw a message that Sheng Ting had sent her early in the morning. She couldn’t help but curve the corners of her lips, then got up, changed clothes, told the maid she wouldn’t be home for lunch, and left the house.
