Chapter 63

“It’s okay, I won’t make fun of you.” I patted his shoulder and changed the subject with a smile. “So you like Eason as well, but you never mentioned it before.”

Jack looked towards the stage, his voice tinged with melancholy. “It’s natural to love something because

of association.”

“She liked him?”

“Yeah, she was really into him back in university.”

“What a coincidence.”

I smiled. “I used to love listening to Eason’s songs back in university too.”

He smiled knowingly. “Quite a coincidence.”

We were in VIP seats, with a perfect view of the performance, and no blind spots anywhere.

With the familiar intro, the singer appeared on stage, instantly lifting the atmosphere in the entire arena, and causing countless fans to scream and sing along, Jack and I were like two outliers, quietly listening. Scenes from the past years flashed through my mind like a movie playing, frame after frame.

Ten years ago

I didn’t know you

You didn’t belong to me

We were still the same

Keeping company with a stranger

Walking through gradually familiar streets

Ten years later

We

are friends

Still able to greet each other

Just that tenderness

No longer finding reasons to embrace

Lovers eventually become friends.

Upon hearing the last line of lyrics, tears suddenly streamed down my face. I cried silently for a long time. When I tried to find some tissues to wipe my tears, a pack of tissues was handed to me.

Jack’s eyes held restrained emotions. “After crying, will you still turn back?”

I don’t think so.”

I wiped the tears from my face, watching him hold back, I couldn’t help but say, “If you feel like crying, just cry. Maybe like me, after crying, you’ll be able to move on from this hurdle. I won’t tell anyone.”

He teased me with a light smile, “Who told you I want to move on?”

“Then what do you plan to do?”

I realized, unexpectedly looking at him, “You still want to pursue that girl?”

He nodded. “Yeah.”

“No wonder Jane always praised you as a good man. You are indeed very faithful. Well, go and pursue her quickly, we’re all waiting to attend your wedding

‘From university until now. That’s almost like my feelings for Ryan. Except he still has a chance to develop a relationship with that girl. Once Ryan and I get a divorce, we won’t probably even be friends. Eight years of liking someone, but still ending up as strange. Quite ironic,‘ I thought.

Jack’s lips curved slightly, his amber eyes sparkling like stars in the night sky. “I can’t pursue her right now.

“Why?”

“She hasn’t divorced yet.”

“Oh.” I nodded subconsciously, then suddenly reacted, unable to believe what I just heard. “What?”

I stared at Jack from head to toe, unable to see at all that he was still the kind who sought excitement.

But on second thought, I felt even more that he was deeply in love.

He must be the kind of man that only existed in novels.

The girl he was in love with was married, yet he restrained himself and waited silently.

Although secretly hoping for someone else’s divorce… wasn’t really appropriate.

But I had to admit that Jack was a good man.

I smirked. “Well, does that girl know you have these thoughts?”

“She doesn’t.” Jack wasn’t ashamed and said calmly, “She’s timid. If she knew, she’d be scared away.” “So… if she doesn’t get divorced, will you wait for her forever?”

I couldn’t ignore this gossip at all.

I usually don’t get involved in ordinary gossip, but Jack’s personal style sharply contrasted with this story, which caused me to be quite interested.

“I’ll wait.”

He didn’t avoid my question at all and gave a definite answer. Then his eyes softened. “But I won’t have to wait long.”
