Seeing Tan Yanli specially deliver breakfast, Lin Runjie knew that despite her tough words, she actually cared for him because he told her he hadn't eaten breakfast either.
"Yanli, wait!"
He took a step forward and grabbed her arm to stop her from leaving. She turned back, puzzled, and asked, "Mr. Lin, do you need anything else?"
"Yanli, what I want to say is, even though we're living apart at the moment, please don't reject my kindness to you, okay?"
Lin Runjie's expression was very earnest. "Since we've agreed there's only one year for us, if you don't even give me a chance, even ten years won't improve our relationship. If you feel moving too fast as a couple is too much, I don't mind starting anew and getting to know you again. We can even start as just friends! All feelings have a process of gradual transition and accumulation, don't they?"
