Later, the news of Xia Xi dropping out of school spread throughout the school. Everyone's first reaction was surprise, and the second reaction was confusion.
Everyone in Xia Xi's major knew that her grades had consistently ranked in the top three since she enrolled, she had won numerous scholarships, and she competed in numerous competitions, making her a true academic powerhouse. She had no problem getting into graduate school at her university. Even Professor Li Zongyu, a renowned architecture professor, was full of praise for her and had agreed to be her advisor.
This is something that many students in architecture schools would not even dare to dream of, yet she was willing to give it up.
Everyone sighed and suspected that Xia Xi had lost her mind, otherwise why would she be so desperate as to drop out of school at such a critical moment.
Is she going to heaven?
Some people were really curious about the reason, so they caught Xia Xi's roommate and asked him, but the roommate said he didn't know.
Even her roommates who lived with her day and night were unaware of the truth, let alone others.
This is very intriguing.
For a time, a wave of gossip swept the campus, and the topics that everyone talked about after dinner were all related to Xia Xi, because she was a celebrity.
I don't know who spread the news, but Xia Xi went abroad to study.
Studying abroad, I can understand her choice.
With the arrival of early summer, Xia Xi has faded from everyone's sight for a long time. It is said that she and Xu Yanfeng broke up. I don't know whether it is because long-distance relationships are unreliable or for some other reason. Apart from the parties involved, I am afraid few people know about it.
The rumors about their breakup have sparked another wave of discussion. Everyone is sighing over how this perfect match could just break up. It's such a pity that they didn't have a good ending.
Some people also said after the fact, I said that their relationship could not last long. Many people said that they were a good match, but being good-matched does not depend on looks. The other one came from a wealthy family. Do you think it is so easy to enter a wealthy family? At the beginning, many people did not believe me and thought that I was sour grapes. Now, please call me a prophet!
After a long time, Xia Xi's name was rarely mentioned, and the posts she had posted on the campus forum became legends, and became a check-in spot and wishing well for many suitors.
They no longer mentioned Xia Xi, as if they had forgotten she had ever appeared in their lives, but Xu Yanfeng could not forget her. Compared to those who had dealt with her, he was the one who had truly possessed her, so how could he forget?
He put the ongoing biomedical project behind his mind, and Xu Junmo had to take the lead, traveling back and forth domestically and internationally.
What was Xu Yanfeng doing? He had learned to smoke and locked himself in his apartment all day, not seeing anyone. He sat on the Mediterranean blue carpet where Xia Xi had once sat, the ashtray at his feet piled with cigarette butts. Day and night made no difference to him.
Several childhood friends took turns trying to comfort him, and finally dragged the depressed Xu Yanfeng out of the apartment. He was like a half-dead dog, and they accompanied him in boxing and drinking, teaching him to vent the depression, resentment, and anger that were stuck in his heart.
Xu Guanshan did not reprimand Xu Yanfeng for his strike, but waited for him to come over on his own. He just didn't believe that his son, Xu Guanshan, would be devastated by love.
Zhong Yinghong noticed that her son was not normal and asked him again and again, but she couldn't get him to talk. She vaguely guessed the reason and didn't want to touch his pain point, so she stopped asking over time.

Xia Xi had just arrived abroad, and whether it was due to acclimatization or the sheer exhaustion of handling enrollment procedures, she felt unwell, dizzy and nauseous, unable to eat or sleep. In just two weeks, she had lost so much weight that she couldn't fit into her old clothes.
She thought she could get through it, but suddenly fainted while waiting for a car on the roadside.
She was sent to the hospital by a kind-hearted person, and the doctor told her that she was pregnant.
Xia Xi lay in bed, without a single relative by her side. After the doctor's words, she immediately suspected she had a hearing problem. She moved her mouth, her voice hoarse, "Can you please say it again?"
The doctor was understanding and spoke slower.
This time Xia Xi heard it clearly. She was pregnant, her and Xu Yanfeng's child, in her belly.
Xia Xi knew nothing about childbirth, and when she learned of the child's existence, she felt no surprise, only fear and helplessness. She was overwhelmed with worry about how to conceive, give birth to, and raise him.
Just thinking about it made her feel so difficult.
Xia Xi had so many concerns, but she never thought of giving up the child.
She knew clearly that giving up the child was the appropriate, rational and beneficial choice under the current circumstances. Keeping the child would add a lot of trouble to her future. She was still in school and had to work. The money Xu Guanshan gave her was enough for her to live a worry-free life for a few more years after solving the problems at home. She couldn't just live off her savings, she had to work and earn money... But she still wanted to keep the child.
Xia Xi accepted the gift given by fate, began to adjust her state, maintain a regular schedule, and pay attention to nutritional balance in her diet. While attending classes, she nurtured the little life, who she didn't know whether it was a boy or a girl, and felt it growing up little by little in her body.
She is very thin, and her pregnant belly is barely visible when she wears loose clothes. During this period, she learned a lot of knowledge about childbirth and made all preparations.
Xia Xi was glad that the baby in her belly was sensible and knew that it was very hard for his mother to be pregnant with him. Except for the discomfort when she first didn't know about his existence, the rest of her life was smooth, which gave her great confidence.

The following year, Xia Xi had a new child in her life, a boy. When he was first born, he looked very much like Xu Yanfeng, but as he grew older, he no longer looked like him, nor did he look much like her.
Xia Xi was very melancholy for a while. How come this child's appearance didn't inherit his parents' at all? It was completely messed up. Fortunately, he was very beautiful, delicate and delicate. As long as he didn't grow up ugly, he would definitely be a handsome boy in the future.
