She knew he was unwilling and that he had no romantic feelings for her, but she had no choice. She had been attached to him since she first saw him as a child.
She was willing to give him more time, and she also believed that after he and she got married, they would fall in love with each other over time.

When An Nuannuan arrived at the door of the room, the door of the next room was closed.
She paused at her door for a long time before taking a deep breath, walking to the next door, and knocking on the door three times.
The boy who lived with Tan Kai opened the door. He knew An Nuannuan and knew that she was Tan Kai's girlfriend. The boy smiled and said, "Sister-in-law."
An Nuannuan gave him a stiff smile, "Is Akai here?"
"Yes, Brother Kai is taking a shower now."
An Nuannuan entered the house, and the boy followed her. "Brother Kai got soaked when he came back. The weather forecast was so wrong. It suddenly rained in the middle of the night."
"Yes, I know. I'll give him some Isatis root."
An Nuannuan walked into the living room and sat on the sofa for a while. Then she saw Tan Kai in pajamas walking towards her from the bathroom.
The man smiled happily when he saw her. He wiped his hair with a towel and walked towards her. "Are you feeling better, Nuannuan?"
An Nuannuan stood up and nodded, "Better now."
She deliberately said that there were wind chimes on South Street, and also deliberately lied to Tan Kai after leaving the cafe, saying that she was not feeling well and wanted to go back to the hotel.
As she expected, Tan Kai sent her to the car and then hurried to South Street.
Braving the heavy rain, he waited on the streets of Chinatown for the Life specialist to deliver the wind chime. After receiving the wind chime, he hurried back to the hotel and ran to the door of Ji Qianchong's room.
She stood at the end of the corridor, watching Tan Kai, who was soaked all over, holding the box containing the wind chime in his hands, and walking towards the door of Ji Qianchong's room with excitement in his heart.
I watched him squat down carefully and place the box on the carpet in front of the door.
“…”
An Nuannuan asked him to sit on the sofa, took the towel from his hand and wiped his hair.
The boy felt that he was unnecessary, so he made an excuse and left the room. The room soon became quiet.
"Nuannuan, if you're not feeling well, go back to your room and lie down. We're going to visit the temple tomorrow, and it'll take a whole day..."
"Nothing," she replied, and then added, "It rained heavily last night, and Qing'er and the others were out playing in Chinatown until late. I just went to their room to take a look and brought back three packets of Isatis root."
Hearing this, Tan Kai immediately looked up and asked, "Is Qian Chong wet?" He reacted after saying this and added, "How are classmate Yan and Qiyue?"
An Nuannuan glanced down at him, her hand holding the towel tightening slightly. She didn't answer his question, but said, "Qian Chong received a very beautiful wind chime. The gift was given by a modest person who didn't put a name on it."
Tan Kai spoke a little more cautiously this time. "You said that classmate Ji likes wind chimes, so she should be very happy to receive the gift, right? Do you like it? If you do, let's go to South China Street tomorrow night and I'll go with you to buy it."
An Nuannuan shook her head and said, "I don't like it." She continued, "Why did you get wet in the rain?"
"Oh, well..." The man paused. "After I sent you off, I ran into some classmates and talked for a while. Then it started raining unexpectedly."
"Then be more careful next time," she said.
Tan Kai nodded.

The next day.
The counselor announced last night: gather at the hotel lobby at 9:30 and set off together to the local church.
