An Jin took a deep breath, trying to ignore the strange feeling in her heart. She squeezed her fingers at her side, then looked up calmly and said, "Actually, I can sense that you've been watching me, whether you mean to or not, for that very reason. But…"
'But I have no intention of being someone else's replacement.'
'The worst kind, too—the classic "unforgettable first love" plot.'
Seeing the surprise on Ze Sheng's face, a flicker of warranted displeasure crossed hers. She didn't say it out loud, but she figured he understood. "I can't truly understand your feelings for her, but if I may be blunt, the past is the past. We who live in the present should learn to let go. Maybe… we could start over?"
He just smiled without a word. 'How could it be that easy to forget?'
Still, he replied, "Alright."
