Chi Chan withdrew her finger, and the enlarged photo on the screen automatically returned to a size suitable for the screen.

She stared at her phone screen, a feeling she couldn't quite describe.

Ten years have passed, and the world has changed dramatically.

Ji Siyuan remained aloof and superior.

And she fell into the dust, even becoming dust herself.

I was already unworthy of him, and now I dare not even dream of it.

Is the most precious treasure, hidden deep in my heart, about to be snatched away by someone else today?

No--

This treasure never belonged to me, so how could it be said to have been stolen?

It's laughable.

To Ji Siyuan, Chi Chan was perhaps just another ugly, scheming woman who couldn't be seen in the light of day.

Ji Siyuan and Ye Zijin were childhood sweethearts, inseparable since they were little.

During their high school years, several versions of their love story had already circulated at the No. 1 High School.

No one in this world is a better match than the two of them.

Chi Chan couldn't bring herself to offer her blessings.

After all, Ji Siyuan was the person she had secretly loved throughout her youth!

Chi Chan's thoughts were complicated.

"beep--"

The phone rang.

It was the doctor on duty tonight who called.

Chi Chan breathed a sigh of relief; she could escape Ji Siyuan for the time being.

"Xiao Chi, the equipment just showed that your father's heart has stopped beating..."

Chi Chan stopped in her tracks, and her phone slipped from her fingers and fell to the ground.

The phone screen, already covered in cobwebs, now has several more layers of webs added.

The phone couldn't handle the load and the screen went black.

Chi Chan stood there for a while before remembering to pick up her phone.

As I bent over, I realized that both my breathing and my fingers were trembling uncontrollably.

During her youth, Chi Chan and Chi Minghe, father and daughter, never had a good relationship.

"I must be his enemy from a past life!"

She often described her father-daughter relationship with Chi Minghe to others in this way.

Since Chi Minghe's accident, the years he has spent quietly lying in bed have been the most harmonious period in the relationship between father and daughter.

Chi Chan had been angry, resentful, and cursed countless times, hating that Chi Minghe was incompetent and could only do the hardest and most tiring work to support his family.

What's so good about this kind of work?

It's tough, tiring, and embarrassing!

In the end, Chi Minghe turned out like this, becoming a burden to his family and to her.

Countless nights, when Chi Chan dragged her exhausted body to the hospital to take care of Chi Minghe, she reached out her hand, wanting to remove Chi Minghe's oxygen mask.
