Jiang Yu didn’t know why he said that. It felt like grasping a straw helplessly while being drowned in a river.
Like Ye Xue said, was it helpful to be sorry?
It was utterly useless.
Zhou Yizuo had been by her side in the past three years, not him.
It was normal for Ye Xue to like Zhou Yizuo.
But he was unwilling.
But what could he do even if he was unwilling?
The hand that held Ye Xue’s wrist gradually loosened until it completely released. It felt like it drained all of his strength.
Ye Xue was shocked when she mentioned the bamboo-made bowl. Then she calmed down. There wasn’t even a single address or name.
“You rest first. I’m going back.” With that, she walked out of the room. Before she left, she even carefully closed the door for him.
She immediately opened the cabinet door and took out the two bowls when she reached her room.
The bowls had always been in the cabinet. It would be brought along to Ye Xue’s rented house after she graduated from university and went to work.
The bamboo-made bowl had always been intact in the box. After opening it, she carefully took out the bowl and placed it on the study desk. The two bowls were about the same size and seemed to have been carefully measured.
The surface was polished very smoothly. Anyone could tell that a lot of effort had been put into it.
Why did Jiang Yu send the bowls to her?
There were two bowls that he sent. One was from two years ago, and the other was recently sent.
It couldn’t be sent to her as a rice bowl to eat?
Ye Xue thought for a long time but still couldn’t figure out what this meant.
Maybe, in fact, it meant nothing. Jiang Yu simply wanted to send a piece of handicraft that he made himself.
Ye Xue had a whim the following morning and wanted to make a mandarin roll for breakfast.
After it was done, Zhou Yizuo came down from upstairs. When he saw the mandarin rolls on the dining table, he was surprised. “Xiao Xue, you know how to make this?”
Ye Xue smiled and said, “Yes, I learned it from my mother.”
“Xiao Xue is so proficient. Even my mother doesn’t know how to make this.” Zhou Yizuo directly picked up a mandarin roll with his hand and brought it to his mouth to take a bite. He chewed it and said, “It’s much more delicious than the one I bought.”
“Then eat more.” Ye Xue also took a mandarin roll and took a bite. She suddenly remembered that Jiang Yu had diarrhea last night. Did he feel better?
Zhou Yizuo ate two mandarin rolls in a row and said, “Xiao Xue, I’m leaving first. Today, my teacher wants me to help with the experiment.”
Ye Xue reminded him, “Okay, take another one and eat it on the way. Otherwise, if you’re too busy and miss the mealtime, you’ll go hungry.”
“Okay.” Zhou Yizuo felt warm and sweet at Xiao Xue’s thoughtfulness in his heart. He smiled and picked up the mandarin roll on the plate, eating as he walked out.
After Zhou Yizuo left, Ye Xue ate a mandarin roll and drank a bowl of porridge. When she was about to put away the bowls and chopsticks, she found that Jiang Yu had not come downstairs yet.
Did something happen to Jiang Yu?
After thinking for a while, she took another bowl and filled a bowl of porridge. She took two more mandarin rolls, put them into the plate, and then carried them upstairs.
She came to the door and knocked on it. After waiting for a while, no one answered.
Then, she knocked on the door a few more times, but no one answered.
She simply pushed the door open and walked in. She realized that no one was on the bed when she walked in. She turned her head to look at the bathroom. The door was opened, and there was no one inside.
“Could it be that Jiang Yu went to school? He usually follows her. Could it be that he left early today?”
Ye Xue withdrew her gaze in confusion and turned around to leave. From the corner of her eyes, she saw a piece of paper filled with words on the study desk.
Out of curiosity, she walked over and placed the dinner plate on the desk. She picked up the piece of paper that was filled with words.
She knew that it was written for her by looking at the beginning.
“When you saw this letter, Xiao Xue, I had already left Imperial College. I didn’t know if you would be able to find this letter, but I still hoped that you would be the first to find out that I had left. At least, you still cared a little about our friendship as classmates.”
“When I left Jiangcheng three years ago that night, I didn’t sleep at all. All I could think about was you.”
“When I decided to follow Tingyan to learn martial arts, I didn’t even dare to say goodbye to you. I was afraid that seeing you would change my decision to learn martial arts.”
“Liking is very simple, but love is too profound, which I don’t understand.”
“I want to take advantage of the few years I spent learning martial arts to see and think clearly about the relationship between you and me.”
“Before I left, there was actually the second half of the message for you. If by the time I came back, you still liked me, and my feelings for you hadn’t changed, I would take you to see my parents.”
“I deleted the second half of the sentence. I was afraid that I only liked you for a moment when the time came, and you would still be waiting there foolishly, wasting time.”
“So the first year on the mountain, I cut down a bamboo tree in the back of the hill and then made my bowl and chopsticks for you.”
“That bowl and chopsticks refer to you.”
“Three years were enough for me to realize my feelings for you were not as simple as liking.”
“So I made another bowl and a pair of chopsticks which represented me.”
“Two bowls which happened to be a pair represented the conveyance of a couple.”
“I thought it would take another year to learn martial arts. Three years have passed, just one more year to go.”
“Occasionally, I went onto my social media and searched for your posts.”
“These three years, there was no newsfeed from you and I continue searching from a day till a month.”
“The only post from you was the engagement notice which came a week later.”
“At that time, all I could think about was you. The person I liked had fallen in love with someone else.”
“That was why I came back. I came back without saying hello.”
“I can only say that I am sorry for the trouble I have caused you.”
“Sorry is useless, but all I can say is that I’m sorry.”
“Actually, there’s one more thing I lied to you about. I have already graduated from university. When I was studying martial arts with Tingyan and Bo Ye on the mountain, my Master hired a university professor to teach us, so I didn’t fall behind in my studies. Instead, I graduated earlier.”
“I thought about it last night. I can’t let my feelings, unwillingness, and reluctance cause you trouble and make you live in embarrassment every day.”
“I only hoped that you could be happy. I liked the way you smiled. It is like cotton candy, soft and sweet.”
Jiang Yuliu.
After the letter’s contents were examined by Ye Xue, she was sobbing uncontrollably and covered in tears.
The students only knew that I liked to let you win when I was in my second year of high school.
Actually, I saw you when I was in my third year of middle school.
After Jiang Yu left, Ye Xue’s life seemed to have returned to its usual calm.
When night fell, she took out the bamboo-made bowl again and looked at it carefully. She examined the bowl thoroughly from inside out until she flipped it over and saw her name carved on the bottom of the bowl, Ye Xue.
This bowl was the one that had been sent to her the very first time.
She picked up another bowl and turned it over. She saw that Jiang Yu was carved on the bottom of the bowl.

When Qin Shu went to Qi Hua, she called Han Xiao in advance and told him that she had already remembered what had happened between them.
Han Xiao was unsure how he felt, but he was utterly stunned.
When he realized what had happened, he told Hua Wuyan about this matter.
