Realising that he had let it slip in a moment of desperation, Cao Dan was about to make up for it when he heard Gu Yanshu’s usually calm and steady voice tremble slightly. “What did you just say?”
“I said… Ah, forget it. You can see it for yourself.”
When did a person like Gu Yanshu’s voice tremble? Only bystanders would understand what he was thinking at a glance.
It was just a matter of two people who were in love with each other wanting to have a romance, but because of these messy things, Cao Dan also felt inexplicably anxious when he saw this. He simply couldn’t be bothered about what he promised Shen Jue and directly sent the video to Gu Yanshu.
Gu Yanshu looked at the icon of the video and his fingertips froze in the air, not daring to click on it for a long time.
Something that he had longed for and struggled with for too long was suddenly brought to him like an oasis suddenly seen by a traveller who had travelled a long way in the desert. He would always worry that it was a mirage, and the dream would shatter when he touched it gently.
However, he still yearned for it too much in the end, so even if he was worried that it was a dream, he still clicked on it with a sliver of hope.
Then he saw Shen Jue saying, “I’ve liked him for seven years.”

Just like how he liked Shen Jue.
For seven whole years.
The snow outside the window fell quietly. Gu Yanshu sat quietly, as if he was thinking about something, and was lost in thought.
After an unknown period of time, his phone suddenly started vibrating continuously. Gu Yanshu finally came back to his senses and opened it. There were messages from Shen Jue.
“I left my phone at the airport and just found it.”
“Don’t worry, it’s fine. I’ll clarify immediately. Don’t be afraid.”
“I have nothing to do with Zhao Shan. I told her that I like you. She said she wants to treat you to a meal next time.”
“Where are you now? Can I come to you right away? I’m sorry. I didn’t intentionally miss your calls.”
“Be good. Everything will be fine.”
“It’s snowing heavily today. Did you wear thicker clothes?”
Every word made Gu Yanshu’s eyes tear up.
Before he could reply, the door of the resuscitation room was pushed open. Gu Yanshu suddenly turned his head. The doctor took off his mask and heaved a long sigh of relief. “The patient is already out of danger.”
Drip!
A tear hit the screen.
It turned out that fate could actually be so kind to him.
Gu Yanshu took a deep breath, then took out his phone and dialled the number he knew by heart.
He said, “Shen Jue.”
A deep and gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. “Yes, what’s wrong?”
Gu Yanshu felt his throat go a bit dry. He said in a low voice, “It’s nothing. I just missed you a little.”
He said it very lightly and indifferently. His comment inadvertently stirred up the space of more than a thousand kilometres between the two of them, both of them almost losing control in his silence.
Shen Jue’s knuckles were already a little white as he held the phone, but his voice was still a calm, reliable yet gentle tone. He said in a low voice, “Go to sleep if you miss me. You’ll see me when you wake up.”
“Mm, alright.”
The flights from Xi’an were grounded. He couldn’t see Shen Jue immediately, so he would sleep and wait.
When his grandfather recovered, when the filming was completed, and when all the disputes were over, he would definitely choose a sunny day and wear the best formal suit. He would also bring a bouquet of roses to tell Shen Jue that he liked him too. It had been seven years.
For seven years, even though they didn’t see each other, didn’t talk, and didn’t have a future together or any hope, he had always liked Shen Jue.
After deciding on all of this, fatigue overwhelmed him, as if the things that had been accumulating in his mind for many years had instantly faded, and he was satisfied and relaxed.
Gu Yanshu thought, “I’ll just sleep then. Who knows, I might even see Shen Jue in my dreams.”
As his mind wandered off to sleep, he really had a dream.
The emotional rollercoaster!
