Indeed, that's Xue Feifei for you, always needing to disparage others a bit before giving a compliment. But Huang Qichu understood, she sincerely wished him well.
This sincerity made his throat feel slightly stifled. He bent his head down to take a gulp of the black coffee. It was so bitter, the bitterness spread from the back of his throat down into his heart.
"Thank you."
"On your wedding day, I won't come to play tricks."
Huang Qichu stayed silent, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly.
Xue Feifei stood up laughing, adeptly puting on her mask and sunhat. "Thank you for the coffee today."
"Alright." Huang Qichu nodded.
"Then I'll be off, wishing you happiness."
Huang Qichu nodded stiffly, his gaze following Xue Feifei as she walked away. He suddenly noticed that the sneakers Xue Feifei was wearing were the ones he had bought for her just before they broke up six years ago.
