382. Chapter 382: The Long Wait 2

When he returns and sees me waiting here for him, he will surely be moved; holding onto this hope, I must keep waiting.

Shangguan Yun seeing me will surely be very moved, very moved; that is my motivation.

For the people coming and going on this floor, as they pass by they all glance at me; even some people coming out to throw trash will glance at me. Seeing this, I even feel somewhat ashamed, but I still persist in waiting. Time slowly, slowly passed; the night grew quieter, and there were fewer people coming and going, almost no one. At first I leaned against the doorway, but eventually I began to crouch at Shangguan Yun's door. Gradually my whole body felt very cold, a chill seeped into my body, it was really cold, freezing me to the point my body trembled, yet I gritted my teeth and persisted in waiting.

The lights here are motion-sensor lights, activated by sound; they turn on when there is noise and dim after a while.

When the lights dimmed, I didn't try to turn them on again; I just tightly wrapped my arms around myself, holding my body, trying to warm up, trying to make my body a bit warmer, but the cold kept attacking my body. I crouched at the doorway, shivering, and whenever the elevator opened a crack, I would always open my wide eyes and stare, hoping it was Shangguan Yun, but each time it disappointed me. Whenever someone passed by, the light would flash on; each time it lit up, my heart would also flutter, but then it would dim again. And every time someone saw me, they would always look at me as if I were a madman; that kind of gaze sweeping over my body—how unpleasant it feels.

Slowly, with my trembling hand, I pulled out my phone and looked; it was already past midnight, and Shangguan Yun still hadn't returned—where on earth had he gone? My heart felt chilled, bit by bit...

So I started calling him frantically, over and over; from tonight until now, I don't even know how many calls I've made—all unanswered—but I still refuse to give up, I just keep calling.
