On their second wedding anniversary, Lei Ting went to see Jasmine to rekindle their romance. He wouldn't have come back if he wasn't afraid of his family's scolding. An Ning waited for him all night, while Lei Ting was immersed in Jasmine's tender caresses. An Ning, sitting in the courtyard all night, must have felt incredibly empty. The thing he couldn't forgive himself for most was for forcing An Ning to abort the child and then leaving her alone at the hospital. Lei Ting wiped away tears, realizing he was a complete bastard! Although he initially only used An Ning as a tool to appease his family, over the past two years, An Ning had taken care of him constantly, and Lei Ting had grown accustomed to her presence. He thought about how many friends envied him when he brought An Ning back to China. Such a wonderful girl, and he hadn't cherished her at all. The gestational sac in the bottle, a tiny life just beginning to form—he had strangled it all! That was his child! This was Anning's expectation for the past two years. Thinking of this, Leiting couldn't forgive himself. He searched the house for a hanging rope or something similar, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't find any tools to commit suicide. It seemed that Yu Li had made preparations and was afraid that Leiting would do something rash, so she took the things away.
Lei Ting opened the wardrobe, which was filled with An Ning's clothes. Looking at them, Lei Ting began to hallucinate. In his hallucination, An Ning was wearing a cheongsam, holding their child, waiting for him to come home for dinner. Lei Ting tried to hug her, but he couldn't reach her.
Thunder: "Peace...peace..."
A sneeze brought Lei Ting back to reality. He opened his arms and hugged himself, only to find that he was covered in clothes, which still smelled of An Ning.
Thunder: "Anning, Anning, don't go, I was wrong, come back..."
Lei Ting shouted, but the room was eerily quiet. Lei Ting was in a daze. He pulled open his clothes, and a cheongsam fell to the ground, but he still couldn't see An Ning.
Thunder: "Where is my peace! Where is my peace! Peace..."
Lei Ting went mad again. In the middle of the night, Yu Li locked his door from the outside, letting him rage on. If Lei Ting didn't go mad, Grandpa and Grandma Zhou wouldn't be satisfied. Letting him rage for a while would be good.
Lei Ting was furious in the room, jumping up and down, searching under the bed and behind the curtains, but he couldn't find An Ning. Where was An Ning? Where was An Ning? Lei Ting went crazy, grabbing his hair and rolling on the floor.
Thunder: "Peace, peace..."
Lei Zhenyu was woken up by him. After his son had an accident, they moved into the house. Seeing his son like this, Lei Zhenyu couldn't bear it.
Lei Zhenyu: "I'll ask that doctor to come and take a look again tomorrow."
Yu Li: "It's a mental health issue! I'm feeling uneasy about it."
Lei Zhenyu: "An Ning... I can't get in touch with her..."
Yu Li: "I can't get in touch with them either... How about we go abroad and take a look?"
Lei Zhenyu: "I'm not comfortable leaving my son at home like this! I'll wait until he's feeling better; right now, I'm already busy enough with work..."
Yu Li: "Sigh, our perfectly good family has been ruined by that bitch."
Lei Zhenyu: "It's your son who's been unfaithful. Humph, don't even mention it, it makes me angry..."
Yu Li: "Alright, alright, it's been several months already. I wonder how Anning is doing. Let's go back inside!"
Lei Ting made a ruckus inside, but Lei Zhenyu and Yu Li simply ignored him, and he would naturally quiet down when he had had enough.
Thunder: "I was wrong, please hit me, please hit me. Come back... come back..."
Holding Anning's tablet, on which was their wedding photo, Anning was extremely excited when taking the photos. She put on her wedding dress and asked Leiting if she looked good. Anning in the wedding dress made Leiting's eyes light up. Leiting smiled and said she looked good. Anning was happy for a long time. Leiting numbly finished taking the photos and went back to work. Anning went to pick up the photos by herself, and on the day they got their marriage certificate, Leiting only participated without feeling anything. Only Anning was happy.
Lei Ting was hallucinating the day he and An Ning were taking their wedding photos abroad.
Anning: "Leiting, your family is very traditional. Shouldn't we have the traditional wedding ceremony where the bride lifts her veil and bows to the groom?"
Thunder: "Yes, Grandpa and Grandma are sitting on the stage, lifting their veils."
An Ning: "Hehe, what's the name of the dress that brides wear again?"
Thunder: "Phoenix coronet and embroidered robe..."
Anning: "Have you prepared anything for me...?"
Thunder: "Everything's ready at home!"
An Ning: "Hehe, I'll go change into this wedding dress and show it to you."
Thunder: "Hmm..."
On the day of the wedding photo shoot, Lei Ting looked at himself in the mirror and the image of Jasmine in her wedding dress appeared in his mind. Slowly, he saw someone walking towards him in the mirror. Lei Ting turned around and An Ning lifted her skirt and asked him if it looked good. An Ning's smile was like a spring breeze that brushed against his heart for a moment. Lei Ting looked at her smile and smiled back.
An Ning: "Do I look good, Thunder?"
Thunder: "Great..."
Anning: "You smiled! It's the first time I've ever seen you smile! Hehe, you should smile more often, you look beautiful when you smile."
Thunder: "Hmm..."
Lei Ting politely took An Ning's arm for a photo. The photographer asked the two to be more intimate, so Lei Ting had no choice but to put his arm around An Ning's waist, resulting in this photo hanging above the bed.
There was another photo that Anning really liked. It showed Leiting placing a jasmine flower behind her ear. The fragrance of the jasmine was disturbing Leiting's mind. Anning looked at him and smiled faintly. Leiting found the photo and cut the jasmine flower out of it.
Lei Ting: "I will never let these things appear around you again, An Ning. You are my An Ning, you are irreplaceable, you are not anyone's substitute, you are my wife. I did not marry you because I did not love you. I love you, I really love you. Can you hear me saying I love you? I love you, I love you so much."
Lei Ting kissed An Ning in the photo, and suddenly An Ning came to life in front of him. Lei Ting looked at An Ning, and An Ning smiled at him.
