The next day, as soon as dawn broke, Tian Xin packed her luggage and headed straight to the bus station to return to the village.
Lin Zhou originally wanted to have a private chat with her to clear up the misunderstanding. He called her several times, but she didn't answer, and she didn't reply to the messages either.
She hardly slept last night, feeling quite upset inside.
The words that Lin Zhou spoke sincerely must have been hidden in his heart for a long time. He is naturally reserved and not fond of talking much. To finally say it out loud in front of so many people must have taken a lot of courage.
Yet she had no choice but to heartlessly refuse.
She knew that after she said those words, he would be sad.
But... that was the only way.
A few days of sadness is better than keeping him hanging forever.
Once the thought is gone, he'll forget in a few days, and everything will return to normal.
