Summary
Shen Linzhou, who was giving me the silent treatment, posted on WeChat Moments: “One hundred likes and we break up!” Soon, ninety-nine people had liked it. I knew Shen Linzhou was waiting for me to go down and coax him, to apologize and win him back, just like the previous eight times. But this time, I was truly exhausted. I quietly tapped the “like” button, making it exactly one hundred likes, fulfilling Shen Linzhou’s breakup wish. From that day on, I stopped paying attention to Shen Linzhou, instead constantly avoiding any interaction with him. Ten days later, Shen Linzhou’s friend sent me a message. “Linzhou has been waiting for you to back down. Tomorrow is his birthday; buy him a gift and celebrate his birthday, and you two will make up!” Upon hearing this, I simply replied with two indifferent words.
