A fire was burning inside Qin Yi, and he wanted to vent his anger, but after glancing at his worried grandmother, he forced himself to hold it in.

I told myself yesterday I wouldn't leave, but I've been nowhere to be seen this morning.

You just want to leave?

Are you in such a hurry?

It turns out that all those words were just to numb myself.

It's ridiculous that I actually fell for her clumsy trick!

Grandma Qin looked at Qin Yi, worriedly trying to persuade him.

"Xiao Yi, Wanwan, she... she wouldn't..."

"Grandma, don't speak up for her, she's a liar."

"She deliberately lied to us, saying she wouldn't leave, just to lull us into a false sense of security. We shouldn't have believed her!"

Grandma Qin didn't say anything.

She recalled that Wanwan had told her this morning that she wanted to go out.

She even thoughtfully told herself, "Grandma, it's cold, you should sleep a little longer."

She couldn't believe that such a good child would just leave like that.

But the results of Qin Yi's checkup yesterday are right there in front of them. Could it be, as Qin Yi said, that she is just trying to lull them into a false sense of security?

Now that they've left, they're never coming back.

Thinking this, Grandma Qin couldn't help but shed tears.

Looking back on her life, she recalled how her husband died young, she raised her son with great difficulty, he got married and had children, but before her grandson reached adulthood, both her son and daughter-in-law perished.

They finally raised their grandson to adulthood, and he's doing well now.

My grandson is paralyzed again.

Now that he's married a capable granddaughter-in-law, I wonder if he'll ever come back!

While the two were at home overthinking Su Wan's upcoming trip, Su Wan was having a blast browsing the market.

Su Wan went to the market. She told Grandma Qin in the morning and left.

She didn't tell her grandmother that she was going to buy New Year's goods, afraid that her grandmother would worry and come along.

It's too cold. It wouldn't be good if Grandma caught a cold if she came along.

She bought Qin Yi two sets of thermal underwear. When she washed Qin Yi's clothes yesterday, she noticed that his clothes were worn out in several places.

After thinking about it, I bought some more fabric, intending to make a cotton-padded jacket for Qin Yi to wear underneath. The weather is cold, and he can't walk right now, so he'll inevitably feel cold. His legs are like this, he can't afford to get sick again, so it's always good to wear more clothes.

I also bought Grandma Qin a set of festive old-age clothes.

Su Wan walked around and bought some New Year's goods, quickly filling a large bag with items.

She didn't have the shyness of a young girl; she skillfully bargained with the vendors, appearing every bit the domestic type.

The vendor looked at Su Wan with a pleading expression.

"Oh dear, oh dear, take it away, take it away. If it weren't for your sweet talk, I wouldn't sell it to you no matter what."

"Oh, thank you, uncle. No wonder your business is so good; it's all thanks to your kindness."

The vendor was overjoyed by those words, and he then grabbed a few candies and gave them to Su Wan.

"Hey little girl, you have a sweet tongue, have some more candy."

"Thank you, uncle."

Su Wan stood up with a smile, when a voice called out to her in surprise.

"Su Wan? It really is you!"

The person who came up to greet her with a look of surprise was Lu Xing.

Su Wan responded politely.

"Hello, Lu."

Lu Xing had imagined countless times that he would meet Su Wan during the holidays, but he never expected that his wish would come true today.

At school, he secretly watched Su Wan every day, and when he got home, he longed to see her every day.

He had no idea where Su Wan lived; he had asked several classmates, but none of them knew.

Since the start of the holiday, he has been listless and lacking energy for anything.

He didn't know what was wrong with him.

Why did he only want to see Su Wan when he had so many classmates?

Until the moment he saw Su Wan, his heart pounded, and his long-standing listlessness instantly vanished.

He finally understood why he wanted to see Su Wan so much.

At this moment, his gaze towards Su Wan was filled with admiration.

Su Wan looked at Lu Xing, and all the memories of school came flooding back to her.

She has no masochistic tendencies. Lu Xing is a good person, but to her, Lu Xing is like a furnace, where anyone who gets close can find warmth.

This warmth doesn't belong to her alone, nor will it ever return.

Since she married Qin Yi, she understood the proper distance between men and women.

It wouldn't make Qin Yi lose face, and it certainly wouldn't allow people to gossip about him behind his back.

Lu Xing seemed oblivious to her aloofness and warmly came over to help her with her things.

"This is too heavy, let me help you carry it."

"No……"

Before Su Wan could even refuse, Lu Xing had already taken the things.

He pointed to his bicycle.

"Su, where do you live? Let me give you a ride."

"No need, I can go back by myself."

Su Wan didn't want Lu Xing to see her off, but Lu Xing hadn't seen Su Wan for many days and didn't want to miss this opportunity to spend more time with her.

Su Wan had no choice but to give him an address.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xing spoke up in surprise.

"Really, Su Wan? My family also lives in the nearby residential compound."

Su Wan was surprised that Lu Xing's father had the same job as Qin Yi; what a coincidence!

Lu Xing was immersed in the joy of meeting Su Wan and started talking non-stop, but Su Wan just smiled perfunctorily.

When Su Wan reached the entrance of the family compound, she took the things down.

"Thank you, Lu. It's getting late, so I won't invite you to my home."

"No, it's nothing. Well, goodbye then."

"goodbye."

On his way back, Lu Xing was filled with excitement. He was certain of his feelings for Su Wan and was determined to find an opportunity to confess his love to her.
