Xu Zhe woke up in the middle of the night with a dry and parched throat. The soup Aunt Lin brought was indeed nourishing, making her feel warm all over and extremely thirsty.
She got up to get a drink of water, only to find that the seat next to her was empty.
Xu Zhe reached out and touched the mattress beside him; it was cool. It seemed the person had been gone for a while.
A profound sense of loss enveloped her, making her feel suffocated.
Xu Zhengxi left at three in the morning.
"He also said he'd leave tomorrow morning," Xu Zhe muttered to himself.
She felt a little resentful towards him, yet also sorry for him.
During their meeting, she noticed he had lost even more weight. Without even asking those around him, she knew he still only slept a few hours a day.
Despite being so busy with work, I still had to worry about her affairs and arrange everything for her trip to Germany.
She knew that Xu Zhengxi's decision to send her to study abroad was not simply because of the availability of high-quality academic resources overseas.

When she arrived at the dormitory building, Xu Zhe counted the steps on the stairs. She knew she wouldn't be living there soon, and she suddenly wanted to know how many steps it would take to get upstairs.
As soon as she entered the dormitory, before she could even put her things down, Si Xingzhu rushed up to her, calling her name.
“Zhe!”
Xu Zhe's arm was grabbed tightly, and the strength of the martial arts expert made her arm sore.
"Miss Si, let go, let go! Let's talk this out!"
Si Xingzhu reduced her strength, but did not withdraw her hand.
"Why?! Why are you treating me like this?!"
Xu Zhe: "......"
"Why did the young master divorce me?!"
Xu Zhe: "Wait, wait, wait, Xu Zhengxi is divorcing you? Who are you to him?!"
