Holding this admission notice, which is still quite new, simply put, it's a recommendation letter for university admission. When she first received it, she spun around happily, and the corners of the letter were creased from folding.

"Chu Lin, why are you risking your future to make me go back to school? Are you stupid?" He Shaoyun said, holding the letter of recommendation, both angry and annoyed.

Doesn't he realize how many people he'll offend by doing this?

Chu Lin said, "I just want to be brave this time. Even if you don't choose to be with me, we can still be friends, classmates, study together, and shine in different places in the future. I don't want you to be buried in this place."

"You idiot!" At this moment, He Shouyun had already chosen to let go. Looking at Chu Lin, she knew he might not understand what love was, but she was content with his determination to let her leave the farm and go back to school.

Chu Lin laughed and said, "He's a bit simple-minded."

Chu Lin just wanted to follow his heart. When he saw He Shaoyun leave, he was really nervous, extremely nervous.

Even though he lived a very frugal life, he would save money to buy beautiful clothes and delicious food for He Shaoyun and send them to her at the farm.

"Didn't you say you were going to take me home to meet your grandparents? The sun's about to set if we don't go soon," He Shaoyun said to Chu Lin, stopping her crying.

Chu Lin nodded in surprise.

He Shaoyun took He Shaoyun and He Shaohua home to pay New Year's visits. He Shaoyun saw the family that made Chu Lin feel inferior. It turned out that his grandparents were really old and they took care of each other. The house looked very poor, but even so, it was kept very tidy.

There was nothing there—no money, no food, and the stools were all dilapidated, looking like they'd been neglected for years.

Chu Lin's original house was confiscated, and everything was cleared away.

Looking at the family's situation this month, He Shaoyun realized that it was no wonder Chu Lin felt inferior; he really needed to gradually work his way out of this situation.

The two elderly people are already very old, but Chu Lin is unable to provide them with a good life.

He Shaoyun felt sorry for Chu Lin, but Chu Lin never complained in front of others.

He silently shouldered the responsibility of caring for the two elderly people, sending all the money he earned each month back to support them.

I learned from the two elderly people that Chu Lin had several older sisters, but they were all married and had not been in contact for a long time because of their family backgrounds. They were all afraid of being implicated.

Chu Lin's mother had actually divorced before the incident and left home with Chu Lin.

This was also to protect Chu Lin. However, when Chu Lin's father passed away, Chu Lin's mother committed suicide out of love. Chu Lin had nowhere to go and could only return to the Chu family. As a minor, Chu Lin still had to go to school in the early stages and barely made ends meet with the help of neighbors and Chu Lin's cousin.

Since Chu Lin joined the army, the two elderly people have been supporting each other. Chu Lin's cousin, Ye Hualan, comes every three days, bringing several days' worth of food, money, and ration coupons. She also comes regularly to clean the house for the elderly people.

He Shaoyun only knew that Chu Lin's family was not well-off before, but she had never actually seen his living conditions and had no idea what kind of life he lived.
