The whispers of the pedestrians who had walked away quickly dissipated with the distance.

He couldn't believe he was hearing such absurd and terrible news.

Without thinking, he grabbed the ring and ran towards the Yan family.

He drove to the Yan family home as fast as he could, only to find the housekeeper standing there in a somber and deserted atmosphere.

The butler packed his bags, glanced back at the Yan family, and finally left, dragging his suitcase.

They happened to run into Huo Xunan.

When Huo Xunan saw the butler dragging a suitcase out, he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle He, where are you going?"

The butler shook his head helplessly. "Miss is gone, so I have no reason to stay at the Yan family home and stay by her side. I have to go..."

“My son asked me to move in with him a long time ago, but I couldn’t bear to leave Miss, so I didn’t go. Now… after Miss’s burial, it’s time for me to go.”

"Young Master Huo... if you come to see Miss, she is at Ziyun Cemetery. Take care."

The butler didn't say much to him and walked towards his son who was driving up.

Huo Xunan stood there, unable to move for a long time, as if struck by lightning, his ears ringing, not knowing how to process this devastating fact.

Finally, he didn't know how he moved his feet, but he ended up driving to Ziyun Cemetery.

He saw a familiar figure in the cemetery, and as if he understood something, he walked towards the tombstone and saw a solitary name on the cold stone.

His silence became a crime at that moment.

In such a sorrowful place, he remained silent, without uttering a single word or shedding a tear. He simply stood quietly on the tombstone for a long, long time.

Until he heard his own voice.

"They always say it's not too late, and there's still a chance to make up for it if you're late."

"Why……"

"My lateness has become forever."

The ring on his hand was burning hot, and he suddenly realized it.

How many times have I missed out?

Time and time again, we just missed each other.

Every regret becomes a joke for the next time.

so--

When someone asked him:

Are you willing to put your promise into action with courage?

"I am willing."

When Yan Weixi woke up, her head was throbbing.

She sat on the bed, looking at the different space, and rubbed her irritated temples: "Don't you guys think you're really treating me like a beast of burden?"

In one night, in order to speed up the acquisition of memories, I not only experienced several sessions in a row, but also had large sections of content cut out.

Yan Weixi looked at them with a resentful gaze.

The others blinked guiltily: "Well... isn't it better to have a short, sharp pain than a long, drawn-out one?"

"Short-term pain my ass!"

"Do you know that acquiring memories is also exhausting!?"

"I know..." Lu Yao felt guilty.

"And you still do this! You really don't treat me like a human being!?"

"Sorry, we were wrong."

The three men knelt obediently on the ground, not daring to cause any more trouble.

Yan Weixi sighed: "Tell me, what do you want in order for you to tell me the reason?"

The three of them looked at each other, and finally Lu Yao spoke up: "We originally wanted to tell you the reason after you recalled all your memories."

"But Ji Xingyi refuses to let others look at his memories... You may have to try to get information out of him yourself. As for Ruan Yousheng, she declined our offer to act on her behalf."

Yan Weixi knew that once they made a decision, nothing could change it, not even a dozen stubborn donkeys could pull them back.

She could only approach Ji Xingyi and Ruan Yousheng.

She planned to start with the most difficult one, Ji Xingyi.

Seven hours ago.

Huo family.

Huo Xunan was standing at the door of the study when Huo Buwan, who was passing by, saw him.

Seeing that he was standing at the door without going in, Huo Buwan kindly asked, "What's wrong, brother?"

Huo Xunan had no memory of Huo Buwan helping him to win over Yan Weixi in front of his father. Now, he didn't know what his father was really thinking, he only remembered the words he had once said.

he thinks.

When will he finally muster the courage?

he thinks.

He kept delaying and was always late.

He didn't want to be late again.

So he stood there, just a door away from his father, about to break free from his long-standing cowardice.

Even though Huo Xunan didn't answer her, Huo Buwan seemed to sense her brother's inner conflict.

She knocked on the door with complete composure: "Father."

Compared to Huo Buwan's composure, Huo Xunan appeared embarrassed and flustered, "Xiao Wan!"

At the same time, Huo Qiyan's voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Huo Buwan pushed open the door and entered.

Huo Buwan decided to act first and ask for permission later to get things done quickly, so that her brother wouldn't keep dawdling. If he kept dragging his feet, her sister Xixi would run away.

Huo Xunan, realizing what Huo Buwan was planning, didn't want to rely on others to accomplish even this small act of courage.

He immediately seized the initiative: "Dad, I like Yan Weixi! I want to pursue her!"

Huo Qiyan was stunned.

Huo Qiyan was confused.

Huo Qiyan almost couldn't catch his breath.

His beloved wife was abducted to the Yan family, and now even his son is going to be abducted to the Yan family?

That despicable Yan family!

Give him back his wife!!

Seeing that Huo Qiyan hadn't responded for a long time, Huo Xunan thought he disagreed, and the expectant light in his eyes dimmed a bit.

Huo Buwan was unwilling to see this situation and planned to speak up for Huo Xunan to try and gain an opportunity.

Before he could speak, Huo Qiyan's voice came first: "Never mind, it's your freedom to like whoever you want, Dad won't stop you."

"Just remember, when you're pursuing a girl, you have to be sincere and genuine. You can't force her, you can't embarrass her, and you can't impose your own ideas on her. Liking someone is your gamble, not her obligation."

"You need to be fully prepared, be prepared that the girl won't like you."

"Your affection shouldn't be a burden to the young girl, but rather a genuine expression of her feelings. Do you understand?"

Upon hearing this, Huo Xunan's eyes blazed with passion, and his chest heaved with intense emotion as he exclaimed, "Dad! Thank you! I will remember your teachings!"

"I promise I will never cause Xixi any trouble!"
