As an actress, Song Yao acted out the word "accidentally" perfectly. She had merely accidentally deleted it, not doing so deliberately, so there wasn't much awkwardness between the two of them.

As an ordinary person, Su Huan had a tacit understanding of that. But it didn't matter, so long as he could be in contact with Song Yao again!

"My phone number is still the same!" Su Huan added.

Song Yao's throat tightened. She pretended that she had heard nothing, maintaining the same smile on her face.

"Then do accept it, I'll add you!" Song Yao keyed in Su Huan's WeChat number and added him. She merely wanted to return the money to Su Huan and not owe him even more.

Su Huan remained standing with one hand in his pocket, not making a move. On Song Yao's end, the instant she added him, it indicated that they could start chatting…

Song Yao tightened her grip on her phone. So Su Huan had never deleted her. She had always been in his contacts!

Very quickly, she transferred the money to Su Huan and retracted her gaze from her phone. Her expression was relaxed and happy, truly like one who had just run into an old friend. "Do accept it! If I don't see you accept it, I'll feel that you won't accept it and feel uneasy!"

With Song Yao's bright black eyes looking at him, he hesitated before taking out his phone and unlocking it…

Su Huan knew that if he accepted this sum of money Song Yao transferred, perhaps despite their standing there and chatting merrily, Song Yao would just delete him from her contacts again, erasing him from her life completely.

However, even as Song Yao told him personally that she was pregnant, other than heartache, Su Huan still wanted to know more news about her.

It didn't matter even if they didn't chat on WeChat. So long as he could see the updates she posted to her social circle, so long as he could find out what was happening in her life, that would do!

Su Huan was still hesitating. Song Yao was afraid Cen Mo might arrive and see this scene, so she naturally took the phone from Su Huan's hand. This was a gesture she had done thousands of times before, hence the fluid movement. "No need to stand on ceremony. Before I found my bank card, you footed the bill for me. It's only right that I pay you back…"

"Song Yao!" Su Huan wanted to take back his own phone, but Song Yao had turned around to dodge from his grasp. She tapped on the latest WeChat news.

She paused in surprise…

What she saw on the WeChat interface made Song Yao's eyes fog up in an instant!

'No idea where you are, miss you dearly! Just wanna hear news about you…'

Xiao Yao Yao tapped on the friend verification. You're still not their friend. Please send a request for friend verification again. After the other party accepts it, you may then start chatting. Sending friend verification.

'We said we'd climb the Himalayas together. I've decided to complete it myself.'

Xiao Yao Yao tapped on the friend verification. You're still not their friend. Please send a request for friend verification again. After the other party accepts it, you may then start chatting. Sending friend verification.

One week later…

'I'm back, minor injury but safe.'

Xiao Yao Yao tapped on the friend verification. You're still not their friend. Please send a request for friend verification again. After the other party accepts it, you may then start chatting. Sending friend verification.

Song Yao couldn't resist scrolling up on his WeChat interface…

He left many messages for Song Yao. Despite only receiving a notification that he still wasn't her friend, Su Huan kept sending messages.

Her finger halted on one of the messages…

'There's hardly been any news of you lately. Someone said you're disheartened by the coldness of the industry and decided to retire from acting, but I've always known you're a strong girl, you wouldn't be defeated by something like that. You should persist in your dreams, to become what you've dreamed of! Because you've always deserved the best!'

Before she could read the remaining messages, Su Huan took back his phone.

He said in a bland tone, "Stop looking!"

Song Yao felt that she could no longer restrain her own emotions. But when she raised her head, her eyes were no longer watery!

She was an actress, a professional actress. When she put on a mask to conceal her emotions, what she displayed was another face.

Su Huan lowered his gaze and slipped his phone into his pocket, smiling at Song Yao…

He knew Song Yao too well. Regardless of whether she was displaying her true self or acting, he knew perfectly well.

He wanted to say sorry for letting Song Yao see all that. Originally, it was a peaceful breakup, so he shouldn't be harassing her like that when Song Yao knew nothing!

He had never once thought that Song Yao would see his WeChat. Clearly, he was a person already deleted from her WeChat.

But since Song Yao was acting oblivious now, he didn't want to expose her.

"You climbed the Himalayas?" Song Yao asked the obvious.

Su Huan nodded and said nothing more…

He didn't tell Song Yao how difficult and dangerous the journey was. He didn't tell Song Yao how he fell during the journey and was nearly buried by wind and snow, thinking he might never be able to climb up on his feet ever again.

But Su Huan, who had already fallen into a delirious state, vaguely heard Song Yao's voice!

Back in school, the two of them sat on the balcony looking at the faraway sunset, with her saying she wanted to see what the sunset looked like on the Himalayas. That was what he heard.

Su Huan thought of the Himalayas, and he thought of how he was in the midst of climbing the Himalayas and had yet to send the sunset photo on the Himalayas back to Song Yao. He abruptly woke up and forced himself to get up from the heap of snow, forced himself to climb to the summit.

In order to conserve energy, Su Huan dumped everything he could dump. The only thing he didn't give up on was his interchangeable lens digital camera. Under extremely difficult conditions, he took two photos before the camera turned blurry…

However, those two photos, he thought… he'd never get the chance to show Song Yao again in this lifetime.

Even bumping into each other there, Song Yao was already married. Things like this that bring back old feelings and memories… would only disrupt Song Yao's heart, and Su Huan didn't wish to do that.

To him, it'd be wonderful if Song Yao could simply live well.

"Mm!" Su Huan smiled at Song Yao, looking as if he merely climbed an easy mountain, not wishing to delve into this topic.

Su Huan very much treasured face-to-face time with Song Yao like this. He was afraid if there was nothing to talk about, Song Yao would leave. He said, "Lately… you seem to be living very well!"

Song Yao nodded, taking the chance to place her phone inside her pocket, and her two hands too, tightly clenching them inside her pockets.

She feigned calmness, pretending not to care as she gazed into Su Huan's smiley eyes.

Perhaps it was because Su Huan was an especially simple guy when it came to relationships, or perhaps Song Yao knew Su Huan too well, but even if Su Huan concealed it very well, Song Yao could see the pain that he desperately wished to conceal in his eyes.

He was clearly in pain, but still, he wanted to prolong the time he spent with Song Yao.

"There's a cafe across from here. Want to sit down for a coffee?" Su Huan asked.

"Where's your cousin?" Song Yao asked.

"The chauffeur sent her back!"

Song Yao hesitated for several seconds. For some things, it wasn't as if she could ignore the fact that something did happen if she simply pretended it didn't…

She turned around and asked the female bodyguard if Cen Mo would be arriving soon. The latter replied that Cen Mo was shopping for toys with Tuan Tuan and would need another 10 to 20 minutes!
