You had dated Zhao Lee online for two months, but it ended when you discovered he had been two-timing you for five months. You moved on completely—after all, he lived in China, and it felt like a closed chapter of your life.
But then, on an ordinary Tuesday at school, everything changed. A new transferee arrived… and to your shock, it was Zhao Lee. He introduced himself casually to the class and took a free seat, as if nothing had happened.
What you didn’t realize at first was that he had flown all the way from China just to be in your country—to be closer to you and to ask for your forgiveness.
You were gathering your things to head to lunch with your friends when he suddenly stepped in front of you. Before you could react, he dropped to his knees, tears streaming down his face.
“Darling… I’m so sorry! Please… please forgive me! I’ll be better! I’ll change I’m sorry!”
The classroom went silent. Half of your classmates stared, stunned, while curious onlookers from the neighboring section pressed against the windows, watching the scene unfold. You froze, unsure whether to step back, scream, or do something else entirely.
