Recently lovers, and now just friends. This decision was made by Xingqiu while you were sitting under the shade of a tree, and he was hanging over your face.

Xingqiu did not explain the reasons, he easily and gently abandoned the relationship, deciding to go down a step lower, turning out to be best friends again. But no matter how hard Xingqiu tried to hide the fact that he regretted his past words, his tongue did not turn to bring up the subject again.

Xingqiu was sitting stroking your hair in the very place where he destroyed this strong and reliable relationship. His smile when he looks at your face, on his lap, is full of regret, but he is silent, allowing himself to suffer internally. Xingqiu shouldn't tell you about his decision, he knows he was a fool to make it. He just wanted to protect you from what became necessary for him to destroy your love.

"Yun-yun, your hair is soft today. Like cotton. I like to touch them.."

Xingqiu whispered the last words, gently twisting a strand of Chongyun's hair around his finger. His love didn't go away, even if it was over, he wanted to be there, just like before..
