Since that unforgettable incident with her third sister, Zheng Mengyan...

Chen Dong felt as if a heavy boulder was pressing down on his heart.

My heart is filled with helplessness and frustration.

Countless quiet nights.

He lay alone in bed.

Staring at the ceiling.

Those scenes kept replaying in my mind.

My heart is filled with regret.

He knew perfectly well that this was completely different from his feelings for Shen Yue.

He harbored a strong desire for revenge against Shen Yue.

Each step has a clear direction.

Could it be between her and Jung Mong-yeon?

It all felt like a sudden nightmare.

I was inexplicably dragged into it.

Completely out of control.

He sighed silently in the darkness.

That sigh was filled with bitterness.

He secretly made up his mind.

From now on, I must dedicate myself wholeheartedly to Mengran.

Use double the love to make up for this deep, unspeakable guilt hidden in my heart.

Time flies like an arrow shot from a bow.

Like sand slipping through your fingers.

Time flies by so quickly, catching us completely off guard.

Winter break has quietly passed amidst joy and busyness.

The lively and joyous Spring Festival, filled with family happiness, passed by in the blink of an eye.

Before they knew it, the day arrived for Chen Dong and Chu Mengran to return to school.

Before leaving.

People were coming and going at Nanjiang County Railway Station.

The noise was incessant.

Chen Dong looked extremely disheveled.

He stood out from the crowd.

His face was as pale as paper.

Completely bloodless.

His steps were unsteady, as if he were walking on cotton.

Each step felt like it took all the strength in my body.

His eyes revealed a deep weariness and emptiness.

He looked completely drained of energy.

He looked exactly like a lonely, empty-hearted young master.

Chu Mengran was filled with doubt and worry.

Like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

They followed Chen Dong closely.

Her gaze never left him for a moment.

She looked at Chen Dong.

My heart aches as if it's being pricked by countless needles.

His voice was full of concern.

He asked anxiously, "Dongzi, what's wrong? You look so pale, are you feeling unwell? Don't scare me."

Her brows were furrowed tightly.

It formed a deep "川" (river) character.

Her eyes were filled with heartache and unease.

Guo Miao was also present.

He scratched his head.

A look of utter bewilderment and helplessness crossed his face.

I really can't understand how Dong Ge suddenly changed into this state.

He moved closer to Chen Dong.

He looked it over carefully from head to toe.

While looking at it, he said, "Brother Dong, you don't look right. Could you have caught a cold?"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched Chen Dong's forehead.

I wanted to check if he had a fever.

Her gesture was full of concern for Chen Dong.

Only with the zither.

Standing quietly to the side.

Like a bystander.

And yet, it seemed as if they knew everything.

Her eyes held a thoughtful expression.

He tilted his head slightly.

He seemed to be pondering something.

The corners of my mouth unconsciously turned up.

A faint smile appeared on her face.

It seemed they had discovered the secret hidden behind Chen Dong.

She glanced furtively into Chen Dong's eyes.

The gaze grew even more fervent.

It seemed to hold endless secrets and anticipation.

It's unpredictable.

Accompanied by the train's deep, drawn-out whistle.

Like the roar of an ancient behemoth.

The group embarked on their journey.

When transferring to Shenzhen.

Shenzhen Railway Station was equally bustling.

A massive crowd surged forth.

They moved with the flow of people.

The journey was bumpy.

They finally arrived in Beiping.

When I returned to my small apartment in Beiping...

Chen Dong felt a surge of heat in his eyes.

Tears welled up uncontrollably and streamed down my face.

He gazed at the small apartment that he knew all too well.

My heart is filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.

She secretly thought to herself that she had finally escaped the clutches of her third sister, Zheng Mengyan.

Thinking back to those days in my hometown of Nanjiang County.

Jung Mong-yeon's presence was like a ghostly entanglement.

Every time he thought about it, it filled him with lingering fear.

He knew all too well that if he stayed in his hometown any longer...

I'm determined to have my body and soul completely drained by Jung Mong-yeon.

Chu Mengran saw Chen Dong with tears streaming down his face.

Just assume he was simply moved by the scene before him.

I couldn't help but find it a little funny.

I felt a pang of heartache.

She gently patted Chen Dong's shoulder.

The movements were so gentle, as if afraid of startling him.

She gently comforted him, "Dongzi, what's wrong? Are you thinking about all the little things that happened here before, and it's making you feel too emotional? Don't be too sad, we have a long life ahead of us. No matter what happens, I'll always be by your side."

Chu Mengran was unaware of the terrible things that had happened to Chen Dong.

Her eyes were full of tenderness and concern.

Like the warm sunshine in spring.

It warmed Chen Dong's heart.

Then...?

Chen Dong and Chu Mengran began tidying up the small apartment.

During the tidying process.

Chu Mengran saw Chen Dong's exhausted appearance.

A pang of pain shot through my heart.

Chen Dong moved as slowly as a snail.

Each time you bend over.

It's like trying to move a mountain.

Each time you raise your hand.

They all seemed to be struggling extremely.

Fine beads of sweat even appeared on his forehead.

Chu Mengran felt extremely distressed.

Her eyes were slightly red.

He quickly said, "Dongzi, you look so tired. Why don't you go and rest?"

"I can handle this myself. Go lie down for a while, don't overwork yourself. What will I do if you get sick?"

Chu Mengran spoke as she spoke.

He stopped what he was doing—tidying up the clothes.

He walked over to Chen Dong's side.

She gently helped him walk towards the bedroom.

Chen Dong was deeply moved.

Looking at Chu Mengran's concerned eyes...

His eyes were full of concern for her.

I simply couldn't refuse.

He nodded slightly.

Her voice was slightly hoarse as she said, "Mengran, thank you for your hard work. I'm going to get some sleep now. I'll help you pack up after I've rested."

Chen Dong dragged his heavy steps into the bedroom.

The moment I touched the bed...

He then fell into a deep sleep, like a puddle of soft mud.

Chu Mengran looked at Chen Dong, who was fast asleep.

I feel both heartbroken and helpless.

She sat on the edge of the bed.

He gently stroked Chen Dong's forehead.

Her forehead felt slightly warm.

It's like the body is protesting.

She thought to herself.

Chen Dong must have been there during winter break.

In a place where one cannot see.

Secretly programming to keep busy with work.

That's why I exhausted myself like this.

Chu Mengran silently made up her mind.

You must take better care of Chen Dong in the future.

Help him with some of the burden.

Even the mundane things in life.

Or is it work-related pressure?

She wanted to be Chen Dong's strongest support.

after.?

Chu Mengran was alone. ?
