Chapter 411 - 263: Missing One!
Speaking of Su Fu, Ran Yan’s expression didn’t change much. She was only slightly stunned, then a soft smile spread across her lips, "We just passed each other by."
In the vast sea of people, there were some unusual intersections, and after they each went their separate ways, they continued on their different paths in life.
If there had been no Xiao Song, if this wasn’t the Great Tang, if there had been more time to slowly blend together, perhaps their feelings for each other could have reached fruition. But what are "ifs" in the world?
Therefore, when presented with two different depths of feelings, Ran Yan didn’t hesitate to choose the more suitable one.
Between Xiao Song and Su Fu, setting aside their feelings, one stood like a mountain always in the distance, available anytime she wished to find him; the other, however, was elusive as a dragon, rarely seen, and Ran Yan could only wait like a lighthouse, hoping for his approach.
It was not about being better or anything else, it was just that Ran Yan preferred the former.
If there had been more time, if Su Fu could fully trust Ran Yan and inform her of all his whereabouts, he might also have become a mountain; if there had been a little more time, maybe Su Fu could have been moved deeper, strived harder to escape the darkness for her... It was just that they hadn’t met at the right time. If that had been the case, Ran Yan might not have hesitated to give up everything for him, and to whom her life’s promises would be given was still unknown, but reality forced her to choose a husband at that very moment.
Sometimes, it was all about timing, just timing.
For Ran Yan, choosing meant resolving, she wouldn’t leave herself any tangled paths of retreat.
