Belated Romance (Mu Tongrui)

A black Knight sped on the road. Inside the car, Fu Lingye's face was cold and deep in thought.

He could still recall vividly every word from Qi Yanli's phone call.

“Fu Lingye, I forgive you. Qiao Sang did not die, she was still alive!”

These words had been repeating incessantly in his mind.

Fu Lingye could not help but to step on the accelerator and sped his car even further.

He had shouldered this pain for countless years until now. If Qiao Sang was still alive, he owed her an apology.

His memories flashed back to ten years ago.

That time, he and Qi Yanli were still best friends and Qiao Sang had always accompanied them wherever they went, whether it was attending classes in the university, studying together in the library, and hitting cybercafes and gaming......

Perhaps that was the only time when Fu Lingye felt happiest and lived without worry.

During that time, he was not as dark and ruthless, and certainly not that emotionless compared to now.

He had the best friendship in the world and had Fu Hanyu, his best Brother in the world, at his side.

Ten years ago, Qiao Sang drowned. Five years later, Fu Hanyu was killed in a high-speed road accident.

Two of the most important figures in his life had gone away subsequently. The darkness and depression in his heart grew stronger, and the people that he could trust were becoming lesser in time with no one being able to embrace his pain.

During these ten years, he became quieter and more enigmatic.

If Qiao Sang had really come back, he wanted to say sorry to her.

......

When Fu Lingye arrived at the hotel designated by Qi Yanli, he rushed inside the room.

There was a girl standing beside the window with her back facing him. Her silhouette bore some resemblance to Qiao Sang. However, that was ten years ago. Even though Fu Lingye could not be sure of the truth, he went and grabbed Qiao Sang's arm without hesitation.

“Sang!”

As the girl turned around, she suddenly sprayed some kind of concoction at Fu Lingye!

Fu Lingye was unable to evade the abrupt attack and his head was struck by a wave of dizziness.
