Chapter 826: She Once Loved Me with Her Life (4)
He was never mentioned again for some times after 2nd of April. Perhaps it was because she never saw her again around the campus. It was also possible that she was disheartened by his cold treatment.
Gu Yu turned another page. Her writing appeared again after a few blank pages.
June 28th: I calmed myself down for two months. I tried my best to avoid seeing him around campus. I never bump into him again. Our life returned to the parallel path we used to walk on. I thought I can finally forget him. But, Chunchun bought a new camera and insisted I should model for her camera around campus. We ran into Gu Yu.
Chunchun suggested taking a picture of us. I thought Gu Yu would refuse, but he did not. Initially, it was a picture of me, Gu Yu, and his best friend, Xu Shuai. But Xu Shuai hop out when Chunchun pressed the shutter, leaving only two of us in the picture.
That night, Chunchun gave me the picture she developed. It was the first, and also the last, picture of us. Still, I was thrilled.
I’ve thought it through. If Gu Yu doesn’t like me, it was his choice. As long as I keep my love for him to myself, it wouldn’t be a bother to him. I can at least love him in secret, can’t I?
Gu Yu, I know I cannot ask you in person. Despite that, I wanted to ask, can I love you?
…
Gu Yu trailed the tips of his fingers on the last line of the words she wrote. He felt as if his heart were being gripped on. A rush of feelings overwhelmed him, lingering in his chest. But he couldn’t describe the feelings he was having.
Xu Weilai had never thought of causing him any trouble. Even though she liked him, she never showed when she knew he never liked her. She hid her love from him and never wanted to irritate him. She had been happily admiring him from afar.
Xu Weilai, at that point in time, was just a boring existence to him.
Gu Yu closed his eyes. His heart felt heavy, so heavy that he couldn’t breathe.
He opened his eyes again after he calmed his mind. His fingers continued flipping through the pages. They were all about her daily life and her emotions. She seemed easy to please. Every small little thing could make her happy for days.
A faint smile appeared on his face as he continued to read on.
Until he reached the page with the date 25th October written on it, a date he remembered well.
Only one line was written on that page: The sky seems dark today.
It was the day he met with an accident.
It was also the last day his memory recorded. Everything that happened after that was a blank page in his memory.
He knew what happened next. Both Assistant Lin and Xu Shuai told him for countless time. But he had no idea why he felt extremely nervous to continue reading.
Was there a conflict in his heart that he could not get over with on what happened next? Perhaps that was the reason his mind blocked all his memories of what happened after.
His Adam’s apple moved as he swallowed his fear and continued reading.
October 26th: They successfully resuscitated Gu Yu. He survived, but was still in a coma. The doctor said that he may become brain dead and will never wake up. I refused to believe the doctor’s words. He was so young and outstanding. His life has just begun… He hasn’t fully enjoyed life yet, and he has so much to achieve. He can’t just lie there waiting for death to claim him. I wanted to be there for him and to take care of him. But when I wanted to talk to my father about it, I heard him discussing with mum on breaking my engagement with him.
