The day before leaving the village, Nanzhi received a confession of love from Cheng Zhouyuan.
Cheng Zhouyuan scratched his head and said shyly, "I'm afraid if I don't say it, I'll never have the chance to say it again."
Nanzhi looked at him: "What do you like about me?"
"I like your kindness and cuteness, I like you..."
“Cheng Zhouyuan,” Nan Zhi stopped him, “There are countless kind and lovely girls in this world. If that’s the reason for liking someone, then you will like countless people in your life.”
"No, Nanzhi, I will only love you."
“I believe what you’re saying now is true,” Nan Zhi smiled. “But feelings are fickle things.”
"Cheng Zhouyuan, are you sure you'll still like me ten years from now?"
Cheng Zhouyuan was very excited. "I'm sure."
"I know about your family situation. If one day I have a stain on my record, will you still like me?"
It felt like a heavy hammer blow to my heart.
Looking at the girl's knowing expression, Cheng Zhouyuan finally understood why she always avoided him.
It turned out that she had already sensed it and knew her own feelings before he did.
No wonder.
Even after she broke up with Song You, she refused to accept his advances.
It turns out he was defeated by himself.
He couldn't give up everything to be with her; he was selfish too, and he was no different from Song You.
"Cheng Zhouyuan, Wen Qing is a good girl. If you like her a little, don't let her down."
Watching Nan Zhi's departing figure, Cheng Zhouyuan silently lowered his gaze.
...
On the day Nan Zhi and Lin Ke left, Xu Min never came to see them off.
Seeing the train arrive, she had no choice but to board it.
The moment the train started moving, she saw Xu Min on the platform.
He had been delayed by something and had just arrived, panting as he searched for her carriage.
Nanzhi rushed to the window and called his name loudly.
"Xu Min!"
Xu Min looked up, panting, and met a pair of bright eyes by the window.
He heard her say—
"I'll be waiting for you in the provincial capital."
He laughed: "Okay!"
He will definitely go to find her; he will go to embrace his moon.
The train departed.
Xu Min watched the train until it disappeared into the distance before finally leaving.
Unbeknownst to him, after he left, a woman appeared from around the corner.
She held a baby who was only a few months old and quietly watched the train tracks.
This woman was none other than Su Yun.
She was pregnant with the old man's child at the time, and that child has now been born.
The child is ugly and dark-skinned.
She originally intended to strangle the child.
But she couldn't.
As long as she is still breastfeeding, she doesn't have to go back to jail.
She raised the child alone, enduring countless scornful looks in the village.
She's living such a miserable life, how can she allow Nanzhi to live a good one?
I heard that Wang Dawei will be released from prison soon.
Thinking of something, she curled her lips into a sinister smile.
After returning to the provincial capital, Nanzhi registered for the college entrance examination.
He eventually became a medical student at a medical university with excellent grades.
She immediately called Xu Min to tell him.
After the exam, I still have to wait more than a month before I can report for duty.
Nanzhi decided to end her marriage with Song You.
Unexpectedly, Song You's mother suddenly fell ill. Song You repeatedly begged her not to break off the engagement, fearing it would upset his mother.
"The engagement is definitely going to be called off, but I can give you time to figure it out yourself."
Seeing her firm stance, Song You finally agreed.
Although he agreed, he still had no intention of breaking off the engagement.
He believed he could win her heart again.
The wedding will be postponed for now.
During this time, Song You asked Nan Zhi to accompany him to see her mother several times, but she refused.
Finally, Nanzhi's university life began.
On the day the news broke, her parents were both busy with surgery and had no time to take her.
Nanzhi said she would go by herself.
Her parents insisted that Song You take her.
Song You drove her to the school gate, and Nan Zhi carried her luggage herself.
"Thank you, here's the fare."
Looking at the money Nan Zhi handed him, Song You frowned: "Nan Zhi, do we have to be so distant?"
Nanzhi didn't want to talk to him, so she just stuffed the money into his hand and left with her luggage.
Song You chased after him.
"Don't follow me, don't bother me."
Seeing that she was really angry, Song You slowly stopped walking.
Nanzhi's luggage was quite heavy, and she felt a little tired after dragging it for a while.
Because of her outstanding appearance, before she could even ask for help, a handsome male college student walked over.
"Are you here to report for duty too? Let me help you."
Just as Nanzhi was about to express her gratitude, a large hand took the bag from her hands.
She looked up and saw a familiar figure.
She looked at him excitedly: "Xu Min, what brings you here?"
When the boy saw a man much taller than himself walking over, and the two seemed to get along well, he became a little timid and didn't dare to go forward.
"I promised to come find you."
Xu Min looked down at her, his eyes no longer filled with the fierceness of before, but with a gentleness that softened Nan Zhi's heart.
"How's business?"
Xu Min slowly explained it to her.
In the months since Nanzhi left, Xu Min has sped up his business, not only selling daily necessities in the village but also buying grain and tea from the villagers, and his business has grown bigger and bigger.
Nanzhi gave him a thumbs up.
"Xu Min, you're amazing. I knew I hadn't misjudged you."
