So, let's set off now.

"Jiang Wan, we may have to say goodbye."

They stood face to face, sunlight falling on half of their bodies.

Song Huaizhi spoke of farewell with a smile, which was very sudden and abrupt.

As if sensing something, Jiang Mian showed no surprise on her face.

Seeing his "heartbeat value" had already risen to "93" above his head, she smiled and responded in kind:

"Song Huaizhi, I wish you all the best."

"Thanks."

A breeze blew past my ears, as if singing a farewell song.

[PS: It's been a while since I've chatted about trivial things in the main text. This time, however, it's about Teacher Song's departure from the story. I've said before that this book was written on a whim, and there are many illogical parts, numerous flaws, and plot holes. As I wrote Teacher Song's storyline, I realized I'd dug myself a huge hole. Song Huaizhi is a gentleman; if marriage wasn't the goal, he certainly wouldn't have bothered with the "little sheep" (a term for a seemingly innocent but actually virtuous woman). Putting everything else aside, the primary obstacle is family background. A scholarly family wouldn't choose a humble background. Parents love their son and should plan for his future. Song Huaizhi may have encountered a passionate "red rose" like the "little sheep," but in the end, he would only listen to his parents and find a more suitable "white rose" (a more virtuous but actually virtuous woman) within their so-called circle. That fleeting glance back then only left a lingering impression.]

The part in this chapter about making peace with oneself is also a message to my readers. When I wrote some of the plot points about Ba Ling, I saw in the comments that many readers resonated with it, having experienced unforgettable pain to varying degrees. If you didn't shout it out back then, then try your best to be someone else's umbrella in the future. For example, this unserious author of mine is either taking a break from updating or arguing and cursing with negative reviews in the book review section (just kidding).

Teacher Song's sudden departure will have two effects on me: ① Many people will abandon the book; ② The book is nearing its end. The new book is expected to be released at the end of April or the beginning of May. As for the subject matter, I already have two options prepared, but I'm still considering them.
