There were no hysterical questions, no loss of composure, and no crying or shouting about why.

Ah Li was very calm. She understood why the original owner's wish didn't include her parents, but only Aunt Quan.

Qin Pei opened her mouth, but didn't say a word. She forced a bitter smile and said, "Okay, we Ali will live at school."

The group left the hotel and went to their accommodation together.

Ahri pulled her suitcase alone, touching her heart. Humans really are emotional creatures.

Shouldn't she feel very wronged right now, have a good cry, and yell at the adults behind her, asking them if they ever thought about her when they did these things?

But she wasn't the original owner of this body. Becoming a child in this world and growing up was her own choice.

"Huan, let's fast forward time tonight."

Otherwise, Ahri would feel very upset, extremely upset.

That night, the stars and moon in the sky seemed exceptionally cold, as if even they could sense the indescribable emotional changes in Ahri's heart.

Ah Li lay in bed, tossing and turning, the occasional whisper of the night wind outside the window reaching her ears. She closed her eyes, trying to calm the turmoil in her heart with deep breaths.

Suddenly, the bracelet vibrated slightly, and a soft light shone in the darkness—its unique way of responding.

Ahri opened her eyes and saw several words slowly appearing in the light: [Time will not stop because of your emotions, but you can choose how to face it.]

Night deepened.

While everyone was fast asleep, the world began to accelerate at a strange pace.

?

Ahri woke up when the first ray of sunlight pierced through the curtains and into the room.

Outside, there were sounds of children crying and shouting, as well as Qin Pei yelling loudly.

Ahri glanced at the time and exclaimed, "Wow, time has jumped to five years in the future!"

Outside the door, Qin Pei, holding the child, knocked on Ali's door, "Ali, are you awake?"

"woke up."

When Ah Li came out of the room, she noticed that Qin Pei looked much older than before. There was a child beside her, and she was also holding another child in her arms.

She got together with her first love and they had two children.

However, it's not as easy to manage as it was when I had Ahri.

Life became filled with many trivial matters, and every day was chaotic, turning her from a glamorous beauty into a haggard, resentful woman.

That first love of mine was always out socializing and drinking.

Zhan Ying wanted to help, but after being humiliated by that person several times, she stopped trying to help.

However, he will give Ahri a living allowance of 20,000 yuan a month.

Ah Li looked outside to make sure no one was around, then whispered, "Dad said he'd pay for the nanny you should hire."

Qin Pei paused for a moment, a fleeting, unreadable expression crossing her face, but she still said irritably, "Why hire a nanny? Didn't I take good care of you by myself back then?"

Seeing that Qin Pei didn't seem very willing, Ali pretended not to say anything and went downstairs to have breakfast. She was going back to City B to attend university.

The house they used to live in now belongs to Ali.

Ahri doesn't stay at Qinpei's place very often; sometimes she stays at Zhanying's place.

I spend most of my time at school or doing part-time jobs.

As for his contact with Fu Daoyuan, it was very limited.

Ah Li glanced at the changes over the past five years on the screen and found that 'she' was indifferent to everything, and sometimes when she contacted Fu Daoyuan, she didn't seem to want to talk much.

After a while, Fu Daoyuan stopped contacting her very often.

Sometimes, even though you miss someone a lot after not seeing them for a long time, you don't know what to say when you're actually face to face with them.

There is a kind of silence that comes from having nothing to talk about.

Ali pulled his luggage. Qinpei's two children weren't very close to Ali, and they were crying and shouting beside Qinpei.

"That's enough! Be quiet!"

Qin Pei's pants were being pulled up by the two children, and she was also making milk powder in her hand.

With no one at home to help her, she still had to do laundry, clean, cook, and take one of the children to school.

Ah Li silently withdrew her gaze; this was Qin Pei's chosen first love.

Since having these two children, the man has become a hands-off father. Every day when he comes home, he either hides in his room playing on his phone or lies on the sofa, waiting to be served like a king.

If Qin Pei said too much, he would slam the door and not come back.

Does she regret it?

At this moment, Qin Pei looked at Ah Li and said, "You'd better hurry up and leave, or you'll miss your flight."

"Okay, I'm going now. Take care."

Ahri pulled her suitcase and walked away without looking back.

City B

Ali pulled her luggage out of the taxi. She glanced to the side and saw that everything around her was the same as before, with no major changes.

Zhan Ying hired someone to clean the house here every two weeks, so it's very clean.

Ahri tidied up quickly, and then heard someone knocking on the door.

Ali went to open the door and found Zhuang Quan standing outside with a smile, saying, "Your mother told me you were coming back today and asked me to come and see you."

"Aunt Quan."

Ah Li noticed that Zhuang Quan still looked as handsome as he had back then.

Zhuang Quan glanced at the kitchen again and, seeing that no rice was being cooked, said, "Haven't you cooked yet? Aunt Quan has already cooked. Let's go eat at Aunt Quan's."

"good."

Ah Li didn't stand on ceremony at all, closed the door, and left with Zhuang Quan.

Seeing that Ali was growing more and more beautiful, Zhuang Quan asked, "Ali, tell Aunt Quan in secret, have you been dating anyone?"
