Feng Yu was overjoyed. “Of course.”
“Then why do you have a girlfriend now?” Zhou Kexin questioned Feng Yu.
Feng Yu was tongue-tied and did not know how to answer this question.
“Alright. Our past lives are different from our current lives. In this life, we are not fated to be together. Please leave.” Zhou Kexin turned her head away from Feng Yu.
Feng Yu did not expect Zhou Kexin to chase him away.
Feng Yu had finally mustered up his courage to tell Zhou Kexin all his secrets, and he will not allow it to end this way.
“Why are you not leaving? Could it be that you want to have the best of both worlds? I don’t want to see you! Leave me alone!”
“Alright. Rest well. I will visit you tomorrow.”
“Don’t come tomorrow! If you come tomorrow, I will get discharged!”
Feng Yu sighed as he looks at Zhou Kexin one last time before leaving the ward slowly.
After Feng Yu left, Zhou Kexin could not hold back her tears.
Why?! Why?! He already has a girlfriend, and why is he still pestering me?
When Zhou Kexin met Feng Yu, she was overjoyed, before becoming sad. But after Feng Yu left, she felt hurt. She felt like she was about to lose the most important person in her life.
Fate… why do I have to go through all these?!
Translator’s notes: The title for this chapter is from a Chinese poem by Li Shangyin. Below is the translated version of the poem I found on the net.
Li Shangyin

It is hard to meet,
but hard to part too,
the east wind languid, hundreds of flowers wasted.
A spring silkworm may not stop spinning
silk after death. A candle’s tears dry
only when it is burned down to ashes.
In the morning’s bronze mirror, you worry
about the change in your hair,
and you feel the moonlight cold,
reading alone in the night.
Mount Penglai, so celebrated in fairy tales,
cannot be located far away:
O Bluebird, please go there kindly,
and take a look for me.
