Late at night, Fang Yi sat on a white chair outside the ward, recalling what the director said to her, and felt a sense of sadness.

She entered the ward and found her father straightening up the cup on the table, and quickly went over to fill him with a cup of hot water.

"...Why don't you rest?"

Fang Zhi's hand holding the cup was trembling slightly. There was no abnormality on his face. His facial muscles twitched when he drank water.

"...let's go back."

He was silent for a long time and finally said

"...Dad, do you know everything?"

"I know my own body well." Fang Zhi sighed, his voice hoarse and deep, as rough as bricks eroded by wind and frost: "Aren't there still exams? Go back."

"...Dad, let's wait a little longer."

Fang Yi doesn't want to give up. Wouldn't going back now be equivalent to a death sentence?

"Xiaoyi, it's dad who has caused trouble for you."

He sighed and lay back with the help of the other party, half-closing his eyes. In the past few days, he had visibly lost weight. He asked thoughtfully: "Do you blame dad for the marriage he arranged for you?"

"Is it your fault that I was so cruel to you before?"

"Dad, what nonsense are you talking about?" Fang Yi did not answer, but said, "It's late at night, go to bed early."

"...Dad knows that you have resentment in your heart...but the Xu family is righteous and has a clean family tradition. This boy from the Xu family is a down-to-earth person."

"...I know." Over the years, the Xu family has taken great care of her. She accepted this favor, so she did not refuse his arranged marriage.

"Dad is worried about your future life..."

As a girl, she has no support from her father or brothers. What will she do if she marries into a new family who doesn't know the details?

"Dad...I, it's not that I don't want to marry him...it's just that I don't want to marry him so soon..." Fang Yi said, her eyes getting wet, "I I can’t bear to leave you, I don’t want to leave home so soon…”

"Silly girl, you always have to grow up and get married."

Fang Zhi touched her head and said, "I won't talk anymore. I'm still crying even though I'm fine."

Fang Yi wiped her tears, collected her emotions and said, "Dad, if it doesn't work out, I'll take the college entrance examination next year. I'll accompany you to treat your illness this year."

"That won't work!" He immediately refused and said without any refutation, "Wouldn't it be a waste of time to take another year off?"

Originally, her illness caused her to delay the college entrance examination last year. If it happened again this year, he would not blame himself to death.

"The Chinese New Year is almost here, let's go back to the village." His illness will be cured in the hospital for a while, so he might as well go back to the village where he can live more comfortably.

The Spring Festival is less than half a month away, and the two of them have to go back and tidy up the house. Otherwise, they will only have cold food and scraps during the New Year, and they will not be happy.

"Go back and light up the stove. We two will have a good New Year."

".......good."

Seeing the longing look on Fang Zhi's face, she finally had no choice but to agree to him

Xu Tianying came the next day. She told her father the decision she made last night. They were going back in the next few days.

After staying here for about a week, Xu Tianying took time to come here almost every day. His real intentions were noticed by the father and daughter. They would definitely tell each other when they went back.

Ever since we talked about it last time, Fang Yi has always felt a little uncomfortable when meeting him. At the end, the other party left a message saying that he would explain it to his parents.

Now that this situation is all over, there is nothing to explain!

However, he helped Fang Yi a lot during this period, and last time he even saw her crying and was comforted by him...

Fang Yi felt grateful and thought about how to repay him, otherwise she would owe him too much.

"...I have washed your last veil and gave it to you."

Xu Tianying rolled up the handkerchief in her hand and stuffed it directly into her pocket. The person in front of her kept her head down, looking at the sky and the ground but not at him.

He felt a little funny in his heart and asked in a low voice: "What, are there any words on the ground?"

"..." Fang Yi was teased by him, and the tips of her ears turned red quietly. She raised her eyes and glared at him. This action now sounded a bit more coquettish.

"That's it, I'm done saying goodbye." She said dryly, leaving Xu Tianying behind, following her with warm eyes as she left.

When Xiao Douding got up, there was no third person in the house except the newly hired nanny.

He yawned and went downstairs. The nanny was busy in the kitchen. When she saw him coming out, she smiled and said hello.

"Sisi, you're awake."

Xiao Douding blinked and wondered why everyone liked to call him Sisi after coming here.

"Where's Mommy?"

"Miss went on a field trip and won't be back so soon!" Auntie brought out the cooked breakfast, "Is Sisi not awake yet?"

"..." Little Douding yawned again, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and squeezed out two more tears. Only then did he remember that Mommy had gone out yesterday.

Diana has to start working after settling here. She is not coming back for a vacation this time. With a large amount of money, how can she make a career here?

During this time, she went to several coastal cities for fieldwork. Because she had to go to factories and run around, she didn't take Little Douding with her and left him alone at home.

There are many toys and picture books at home that he brought back from the Ji family. Chen Ziyuan also prepared a lot for him. It is not difficult for him to be alone at home.

One day, two days... He was looking forward to Diana's return day and night. The first thing every morning was to tear off the calendar from the past.

As the date for her return approached, Xiao Douding suddenly received a call from her. Deanna said that because the situation was more complicated than expected, she might have to come back a little later.

Little Douding is not very happy. He is too bored at home. He either stays at home or can only stay in the community every day. He wants to go out and play.

"Mommy, can I go find you?"

"No, honey, Mommy is busy now. I'll take you out to play when you get back, okay?"

Xiaodouding has been feeling gloomy since he hung up the phone. There are still festive songs playing on the TV. He knows that an important festival here, the Spring Festival is coming soon.

Auntie said that the Spring Festival is the beginning of the year. Everyone is reunited and lively.

But his house is deserted, and Mommy doesn’t know when she will come back.

When he was bored, he inevitably thought of his life in the military compound a few days ago. He thought about it, why didn't he just go there? It just so happens that he misses Uncle Ji too.

Uncle Ji said that if he missed him, he could go to them directly.

Just do it, Xiao Douding packed up the small box and went out secretly.

Hmm... This matter cannot be discovered by aunt, otherwise she will definitely not allow him to go there and will tell mommy. He might as well get there and report to mommy that he is safe.

By the time the aunt discovered that Xiao Douding was missing inside and outside the villa, he had already boarded the train to Beijing with his excellent memory at the other end.
