He sat before the table as he stared at the screen without moving. He was not sure what he was feeling, but he just felt that he had lost something important. However, he could not put a finger on what it was.

The hole in his heart was growing wider and wider and his mind went blank until he clicked an email open. Those words of concern appeared before him and he started to soften.

It was an email from Xi Xinyi, filled with caring words...

He felt warm every time he received emails like this.

He suddenly remembered that this was his private email address and nearly no one knew about it. Nevertheless, since Xi Xinyi was the woman he loved, of course, she knew about it.

The void in his heart was instantly filled up. He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. However, it was Xi Xiaye’s skinny figure that came into his mind.

“I’ve put the clothes in your car. It’s cold over there. Keep it.”

“I’m alright. Get some rest if you’re tired. I can go back myself and you don’t have to send me back.”

Another image flashed in his mind and Xi Xinyi’s cute and lovely image appeared.

“Yifeng, put on more clothes. I bought a new coat today. I’ll wear it for you tomorrow!”

“Yifeng, can you go with me? I’m scared to be alone...”

He had somewhat captured the difference between the two of them and wanted to make sure, but he understood that those were just random thoughts inside his head. They passed by so quickly that he could not grasp them. He suddenly shot to his feet.

Bang!

His movement was too sudden and his sleeve swiped the glass jar on the table. A loud crash reached his ears as the glass jar shattered on the floor, the folded stars scattering all over the place. They very colorful and messy.

He looked downward at the floor full of stars as a scene played inside his head.

“I can’t really think of anything to give you for your birthday, but I heard this is pretty good. I hope that all your wishes come true.”

He already forgot which birthday it was, but she had cycled all the way to his house at midnight to call him out and give him this jar full of folded stars.

...

He looked at those little stars quietly for a long time, recalling her slightly red fingertips when she handed the glass jar to him.

“Happy birthday. I’m not going to give you a lot of gifts in the future because I’m worried that you might not value my gifts that much anymore if I give them too frequently, so I’m only giving you gifts on your birthday. I’ll head back for now. Get some rest soon.”

She had always been like that.

After some time, a sense of dread appeared in his quiet eyes. He squatted down and picked up the stars one by one, not stopping even when the glass stabbed his fingers...

Back then, him and her...

They were so young and innocent. Those memories were getting further and further away.

They were getting so far away that he did not even remember how the weather was on that day.

She had said, “Yifeng, I don’t know who you’ve ever liked or who liked you all these years, but are you willing to hold your promise onto the marriage contract if I asked you to?”

He had replied to her with a cold shoulder until she chased him and begged, and he...

...

When they were done with the stage decorations, it was nearly 11 p.m. at night after they had supper. Xi Xiaye rushed back to Maple Residence and it was about midnight when she reached home.

Unlike the several nights ago when she worked until near dawn, she took a bath and wanted to sleep earlier. After all, her man was expected to come home the next day too.

After bathing, Xi Xiaye lay down on the bed after switching the bright lights off. She only left the dim wall lamp on, leaving the gentle, yellow light illuminating the room.

Stars filled up the sky that night, and the silent night seemed charming as ever. A cold wind breezed through as several lonely fallen leaves fell onto the ground, and with the sudden appearance of a car, the leaves took off once again.

The car was heading into the Grand Waves Villa area. It was past midnight when it stopped in front of Maple Residence.

Ah Mo opened the door and informed Mu Yuchen who was still working on his laptop, “We’re home, Master. Pack up your stuff. It seems that Missus isn’t asleep yet!”

Mu Yuchen shut down his laptop and handed it to Ah Mo before he got out of the car slowly. He frowned when he saw the dim light inside the room on the second floor.

What time was it already? Was she not asleep yet?

Ah Mo quickly packed the stuff and wanted to take it in for Mu Yuchen, yet the latter took the heavy briefcase and said, “It’s late already. Drive the car back and come over at 2 p.m. tomorrow.”

“Got it, Master!”

Mu Yuchen then walked towards Maple Residence alone, taking the keycard out from his pocket and swiping it across the sensor before the door opened automatically.

The lamps at the front yard were photoreceptive. They would be switched on at night and would turn off at dawn.

Mu Yuchen’s lean figure passed through the yellow light as he walked into his home.

Xi Xiaye was half-asleep and woke up when she heard the sound of the door opening from the outside. Vigilantly, she switched the bedside lamp on and looked in the direction of the door.

She heard some noise outside, and then the bedroom door opened. A certain someone came into her view.

Why was he back?

Midnight!

She rubbed her eyes, thinking that she was mistaken, but his deep and slightly hoarse voice reached her. “Did I wake you up?”

“Why are you back? Why didn’t you give me a call first?” Xi Xiaye scratched the nape of her neck as she squinted her eyes and looked at him with her messy hair.

Mu Yuchen took off his necktie and coat, then he unbuttoned his shirt and walked towards the wardrobe, appearing very tired.

Xi Xiaye observed him quietly for a while, then she got down from the bed.

She went forward and stopped beside him. Just as she was about to take the coat and necktie from him, he turned around when her fingers touched the corner of his shirt. He looked downward at her taking the garments away from his hand...
