When Lu Mianmian heard Zhou Jinghua's words, she felt like she was struck by lightning.

She pushed the door open and was about to go in, but saw two people hugging each other and whispering in each other's ears on the hospital bed.

She didn't know how she left the hospital. Zhou Jinghua's words were like a poisonous knife, stabbing her heart and breaking it into pieces.

She clearly wasn't crying, but before she knew it, tears were streaming down her face.

She thought about rushing in and slapping him twice, then asking him why he treated her like this?

But she found that she couldn't do it.

Because the only people who can truly hurt you in this world are always those you truly trust.

Zhou Jinghua's words really hurt her, but he had been helping her since she lost her memory, giving her a temporary home and preventing her face from being rotten beyond recognition.

The hurt he caused her was real, and the warmth he once gave her was also real.

Forget it, let’s just call it even!

The next day, Zhou Jinghua was finally able to be discharged from the hospital. After he learned from the police that Zhou Jiani had passed away, he couldn't wait to go there.

"Jiani, Xiaohua..."

"Brother, you're finally here. Sister Xiaohua...she's gone." Zhou Jiani ran out of the house crying and handed a note to Zhou Jinghua.

Zhou Jinghua suppressed his panic and opened the note. On it was Lu Mianmian's beautiful and neat handwriting: "Jiani, Jinghua, I'm leaving. The fate of the past is over, and we will cherish each other from now on! Don't look for me, don't miss me. Xiaohua will stay."

These few simple words were like a hammer, hitting Zhou Jinghua's heart hard.

He looked up at the sky. The sunlight was blinding, but it couldn't reach his damp heart.

"Why? Why did she suddenly leave?"

Zhou Jiani stood there sobbing, she didn't understand why Sister Xiaohua left suddenly, she only knew that Sister Xiaohua had become very strange since last night, always staring blankly by herself with red eyes.

"Brother, is Sister Xiaohua really not coming? Where would she go alone?"

Zhou Jinghua put away the note, took a deep breath, and tried to calm himself.

"You go to school first, I'll go find her..."

From that day on, Zhou Jinghua began to ask around for Lu Mianmian's whereabouts, but she seemed to have disappeared out of thin air and there was no clue.

He went to the places they had been and asked everyone who might know where she had been, but all he got was that they didn't know.

As time went by, Zhou Jinghua began to realize that she was avoiding him on purpose.

But why? He couldn't figure it out...

Half a month later, Mu Shuting found him and said, "I know why your sister left you."

"What do you want to say?"

In just half a month, Zhou Jinghua lost weight again. The suit Lu Mianmian bought for him looked a little empty on him, but he was still handsome.

"Take a look!" Mu Shuting handed him a photo and a checklist mysteriously.

Zhou Jinghua took it eagerly and took a look, his pupils trembled immediately. In the photo, Lu Mianmian and a man were looking into each other's eyes, and they were holding hands. It was obvious that they had a special relationship.

And that check list was...a pregnancy check list.

"She...is pregnant?"

"The man in the photo is the editor-in-chief of a newspaper. He is not only handsome, but also good-looking. Most importantly, he earns more than 100 yuan a month. Although he already has a family, I have to say that you, my sister, are quite capable of thinking for yourself."

Mu Shuting's teasing tone was full of sarcasm.

"Shut up! Xiaohua is definitely not that kind of person."

Zhou Jinghua didn't believe what Mu Shuting said. Now he just wanted to find Lu Mianmian in person to ask her clearly.

In his impression, Xiaohua is definitely not the kind of person who would disregard ethics and morality for money.

After Lu Mianmian left Zhou Jinghua and his sister, she rented a small yard from the fertilizer factory, bought a second-hand three-wheeled bicycle, and started a business selling boxed lunches.

She didn't have much money to resell the goods, so she had to start a small business.

Since she didn't seem to have any other special skills, she could cook a few home-cooked dishes, so after inspecting the market, she started selling boxed lunches.

Two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, three dishes sold for eight taels each.

A meal consisting of two dishes, one meat and one vegetable, is called Wuqi.

Because the portions were large, clean and tasty, all 100 portions prepared on the first day were sold out.
