Later, when he was around ten years old, Fu Wenzhou stayed at the Song family's house for a while, and from then on, the name Song Qingyou was almost always on his lips.
The words Xu Zezhan and Gu Bai heard him say most often every day were:
"Song Qingyou helped me with my homework today. Her hands are so pretty."
“Song Qingyou said she didn’t like sweets, but she was lying. Her eyes crinkled into crescents when she ate sweets.”
"Song Qingyou scolded me today because I didn't finish my homework, but she looked pretty when she scolded me."
"Xu Zezhan, Gu Bai, I'm doomed, I like Song Qingyou so much, I like her to death."
"Song Qingyou has had a hard life. I want to marry her. I must marry her. I will give her the best things in the world. But the best person in the world is me. She already has that. She is so lucky."
At that time, Xu Zezhan and Gu Bai were so tired of hearing the name Song Qingyou that they were sick of it.
But Fu Wenzhou was still enjoying it, and even when Song Qingyou scolded him, he was happy to accept it.
Gu Bai mocked him for being spineless, and he grinned and said they wouldn't understand.

Xu Zezhan still remembers Fu Wenzhou's disheveled state that night.
He knelt in the rain, clutching an umbrella that Song Qingyou had given him. He didn't cry when he was beaten by Old Master Fu, nor when he was beaten half to death in underground boxing matches abroad, but he actually cried for a woman.
They all felt that Song Qingyou was mistreating Fu Wenzhou, so they had always been prejudiced against her.
In truth, how can outsiders truly understand matters of the heart?
Song Qingyou is an obsession that Fu Wenzhou has had since he can remember. If Song Qingyou dies, then Fu Wenzhou cannot live either.
Xu Zezhan sighed, "I wonder what's going on with him in the Misty Forest."
