The next day, Zhao Weidong woke up early in the morning and heard that Song Yingying had woken up, so he ran to see her.

What we saw was Song Yingying being held tightly in her parents' arms, wearing beautiful and warm clothes, and she had turned into an exquisite and pretty girl again.

She had recovered a lot, her face was rosy and full of vitality, and her watery eyes looked around, passing through the crowd one by one.

Zhao Weidong waved towards Song Yingying, taking the initiative for the first time.

He thought Song Yingying would carry him to a remote place and give him food. They knew each other, and they fell into the water. Perhaps they could talk to each other more, and perhaps... they could become friends.

However, the girl, who was the center of attention and held high up in the arms, did not react at all when she saw him. She did not wave or smile. Just like she did when she saw everyone else around her, she glanced at him with fear.

Song Yingying hid in her mother's arms because she was scared by so many strangers around her.

"Mom, I want to go home."

"Hey, let's go home right away. Yingying, don't be afraid."

Song Yingying's mother turned her around and hid the child in her arms, holding her tightly, and then got into the car that came to pick them up.

They quickly said goodbye to the villagers and the car drove slowly forward.

It was the first time for the villagers to see such a beautiful car. They looked around curiously and kept muttering, "This is a car. It's so beautiful. I want to ride in such a car. People in the city are just different. Zhao Weidong, didn't you have an engagement with them? Now they are in the city, why don't they take you with them?"

"Tsk, Professor Song's family, do they think highly of Zhao Weidong? They just listened to the fortune teller's lies and had no choice but to save his daughter. Now that the child has woken up, why would they want this burden? What's the point of this child marriage? They're being polite by not turning their backs on him."

"Zhao Weidong, don't be disgusted by the aunties' ignorance. They are telling you to face reality as soon as possible and stop wishful thinking. A toad can't eat swan meat! You are destined to be a farmer all your life, and you can never be a city dweller."

Zhao Weidong didn't listen to what the aunts around him said at all. He looked at the car driving away with his dark eyes and suddenly rushed out.

He chased after the car, running as fast as he could.

In the car, Song Yingying was sitting in her mother's arms. She felt something vaguely. She looked up at the back of the car and saw the figure of a strange boy.

She patted her mother's shoulder and said, "Mom, look, someone is chasing us."

Song Yingying's mother looked up and saw Zhao Weidong, and quickly reminded her husband, "Old Song, look, it's that child. Could it be that he's attached to us?"

After taking a few glances, Song Yingying's father said to the driver, "Zhizhi, please drive faster. We are in a hurry to get to the city."

The car's speed gradually increased, and the boy's figure behind it became smaller and smaller.

Song Yingying didn't know why, but she kept staring at the boy behind her.

Song Yingying's mother hugged her and turned around, "Yingying, stop looking. We are at our home. Take a nap first. You can get home when you wake up."

Whoosh… Whoosh…

Whoosh… Whoosh…

Zhao Weidong had just recovered from a serious illness and felt weak. His intense running brought a cold wind that blew into his throat, cutting his throat like porn, making him feel uncomfortable all over.

He could no longer run, and he supported his knees with his hands, gasping for breath.

There was no sign of the car ahead any more, as if Song Yingying had never appeared in his life again.

That day, after Zhao Weidong arrived in the village, the village chief secretly gave Zhao Weidong ten yuan, saying that it was left for him by Song Yingying's father.

Zhao Weidong tightly grasped the ten yuan and wanted to refuse, but his parents at home had been ill for a long time and they had no money to buy medicine, so he had to accept the money.

At the beginning of the school year, the village chief said that Professor Song had sent money for your tuition so that you could go to school and learn to read and understand things.

Zhao Weidong took the money but did not go to school because his younger brothers and sisters at home needed the money for food more.

Just like that, Song Yingying's family never returned to the village again, but every child gave money to Zhao Weidong, as if to compensate him for saving Song Yingying's life. It was also to remind Zhao Weidong that by taking the money, he was indebted to the Song family and he should stop dreaming of a child marriage with Song Yingying.

Later, when Zhao Weidong was seventeen years old, the army came to select new soldiers, and Zhao Weidong took the initiative to sign up.
