"Since Mr. Deng is here, I'll be going now! Don't want to disturb you two!"
Watching them flaunt their love as if no one else were around, Lin Runjie just smiled. Seeing Tan Yanli find her own happiness made him genuinely happy for her.
Deng Zhiyi turned to Lin Runjie, politely exchanging pleasantries, "Alright, Mr. Lin, let's arrange for you to visit our home sometime!"
"Sure! See you then!"
Lin Runjie waved at the two of them and turned to leave.
Watching his departing figure, Tan Yanli silently sighed in her heart. She knew this would be the way between them. He would never know there's a woman carrying his child; let that always remain a secret.
"Yanli, what are you thinking about?"
Deng Zhiyi noticed Tan Yanli's eyes were fixed on Lin Runjie's back, filled with sadness, sorrow, and an indescribable pain and inner conflict.
He frowned slightly as a thought suddenly struck him, leading him to blurt out, "Yanli, is Lin Runjie that man?"
"Huh? What did you say?"
