  Missing someone is a torture that is both sweet and painful. When you can't see him/her, you can't help but wonder how he/she is doing, whether he/she is eating well, and whether he/she is being taken care of.

  Maybe I have forgotten him? If we meet, will I point at his nose and ask, who are you?

  Xu Jiashen began to recall some past events to relieve the loneliness of not being able to meet her. As he recalled the past, Xu Jiashen once again realized how bad a person he was and how many mistakes he had made.

  If Shen Gusi is unwilling to look back...

  He didn't dare to think about it anymore and gave up the idea in panic.

  It is January now, the coldest season of the year in China, but it is a hot summer here. People wearing short sleeves and suspenders can be seen everywhere on the streets.

  Only Xu Jiashen was wearing long sleeves and long pants, with a coat on the outside. The coat wrapped him tightly, but he still felt very cold.

  Walking in the crowd, people around him cast strange looks at him, probably wondering why this black-haired, black-eyed man was wearing such thick clothes in such a hot day.

  He seemed out of place in the crowd. His upright figure was not at all ambiguous even among a group of tall foreigners. Instead, he stood out and attracted attention.

  His pale, haggard face and dry, bloodless lips highlighted a morbid beauty. The wind made his hair messy, but the curves of each hair seemed to have been arranged in advance. The mess did not make him look disheveled, but instead made him look like a vigorous pine or cypress in the cold wind.

  Xu Jiashen shuttled through the crowd and walked on the streets without a destination. He didn't know where Shen Gusi was in the city, so he had to rely on luck.

  I can only rely on something as unreliable as luck.

  This was the only solution he could find right now. Although it was stupid, it was the only way.

  The center of the city is a huge park surrounded by a circle of commercial streets. There are all kinds of exquisite shops, the glass is shining in the sun, there are delicate hollow carvings, and the aroma of freshly baked bread comes from the street corners.

  He shouldn't have gone here today.

  But it was strange, it seemed like there was a hand pulling him, making his feet out of control. When he came to his senses, he was already standing at a crossroads.

  Not far in front of the intersection is the largest city garden, and on the left is a famous bakery chain, which is also the largest in the city.

  The aroma of butter covers the entire street, the chocolate melts smoothly in the air, and every breath is sweet, wrapping people in candy-like sweetness.

  Xu Jiashen had a stuffy nose, so he naturally couldn't smell the aroma. He had no appetite, so he didn't even glance towards the bakery.

  At the corner of the street, Xu Jiashen's shadow was reflected in the glass window of the bakery, overlapping with the dazzling array of breads in the store.

  He almost subconsciously glanced into the window, and just this one glance made him freeze in place for a moment.

  Because he saw someone.

  It was none other than the person he thought about day and night, Shen Gusi.

  He was sitting on a chair behind the bread shelf.
