He wasn't an upright gentleman, and because he knew that, he made the choice to delete it.
He couldn't risk making an irreparable mistake!
There was no reluctance when he deleted it, but after it was done, he felt a tinge of regret, thinking he should have looked at it a couple more times, or at least one last time—this itself proved that the deletion was necessary.
His phone chimed with a WeChat message.
[Su Qing: What did you eat for lunch?]
Gu Ran sent her a photo of the Cantonese dishes he had, a smile already spreading across his face.
[Gu Ran: Did you miss me?]
[Su Qing: Why else would I chat with you, checking in on you?]
[Gu Ran: I've missed you too.]
[Su Qing: Start a video call?]
Gu Ran took a deep breath and dialed the video.
Both of them appeared on each other's screens at the same time and couldn't help but laugh, looking away slightly.
To ease the awkwardness, Gu Ran was about to speak when Su Qing put her index finger to her lips, signaling him to be quiet.
