eculate on the relationship between Gu Ruandong and Xu Zhao, nor did she want to misunderstand Gu Ruandong. So she wanted to get to know Yu Yu first.She wanted to get Xu Zhao away so she could chat wi...She was so certain about Shu Minghai, thinking that after the funeral and after sending Tinglan to university, she would definitely find the truth and clear Shu Minghai's name. 。Tinglan always curled up in a corner, instinctively keeping her eyes open and staring at her mother, hoping that her mother would tell her that all of this was just a dream. 。Her phone rang many times from morning to afternoon, her ears seemed to have gone deaf, she couldn't hear the phone ringing until the phone ran out of power and shut down automatically. 。That was Zhuo YUAN's call. 。That morning, after pulling an all-nighter, he fell asleep without realizing it. He actually slept through it. 。When I woke up, Tinglan was gone. 。That day, he called her countless times, but she didn't answer. 。All the words I want to say to her have no place to go, so I can only edit them into a long text message to send her. 。In the text message, was his heartfelt affection, him offering a heart burning with love to her. 。After sending that message, he lay awake all night, his nerves on edge, waiting for her reply. 。However, the phone remained eerily silent, not even a single advertisement. 。The past two nights, his heart has been on a roller coaster, from anticipation to anxiety and now slowly cooling down. He thinks, perhaps this is her answer. For three years, she has never looked at him... 。

But he refused to give up. He wouldn't let it go, and day after day, he kept calling her. 。Sometimes it goes unanswered, sometimes it's switched off, she always ignores him. 。Zhuo Yu'an was also stubborn, refusing to believe her until he heard her rejection with his own ears. 。So she kept on fighting, until the third day, when she finally gave in. 。Suddenly hearing her voice, his heart trembled. He felt a pang of bitterness, but forced himself to compose himself and greeted her: "Tinglan, I'm Zhuo Yuyan." 。He simply made a casual greeting on the phone, even preparing himself for rejection. 。But he didn't expect Tinglan on the other end of the phone to scold him so harshly, saying so many hurtful things. 。He was such a proud person, a darling from childhood to adulthood, someone who was praised and pampered all his life. He had never been scolded like this before. Nor had he ever been spoken to so harshly by someone he cherished. 。At that moment, he wasn't just experiencing self-doubt or frustration, it was a pain beyond words. It was the heart of a burning flame being brutally crushed underfoot, shattered into pieces. He could even hear the agonizing sound of his body breaking apart. 。He went pale as death, hung up the phone, and locked himself in his room for two days without coming out. This scared the maid half to death; she had to get someone to pry open the door before they could go in. The boy's cheeks were sunken, and his eyes were bloodshot. 。At that time, the atmosphere at the Zhuo family also became heavy. Zhuo Hong investigated the person involved, and the person committed suicide out of fear, and all the investigations came to an abrupt end at the source. The grandfather was furious in Beijing. 。Besides the nanny, no one else at home noticed anything was wrong with Zhuo YUAN. 。He did not wait in Qining for his college entrance exam results, and he even returned to Beijing without saying goodbye to anyone. 。By the time his family found out, he had already applied to universities abroad and left China before the semester began. 。Even years later, whenever he happened to recall that phone call from abroad, a shiver would run down his spine. 。

And he didn't know that the phone call, Tinglan wasn't targeting him 。He just happened to call her at the darkest moment of her life. 。At that moment, Tinglan just realized she and her mother had been living in this lie for 18 years. At that moment, it was her mother's hysterics as she flushed her father's ashes down the toilet. 。。Actually, she was just looking for an outlet. She wasn't aware of what harsh words she was uttering. 。After hanging up the phone, she finally burst into tears, and the two of them hugged each other and cried. 。After that cry, the mother and daughter didn't cry again. They didn't even bother with Shu Minghai's memorial service anymore. 。These 18 years of life have been like a dream. 。The mother and daughter just want to forget everything about Qining and start a new life. 。Fortunately, the college entrance exam results came out quickly. Tinglan was admitted to Senzhou University with a score far higher than the admission line. 。The day Zhang He received the notice of employment, she packed all her belongings and left Qining city with Tinglan that very night. 。

Only Cheng Chen came to see him off. 。Cheng Chen only learned of her father's death later, knowing only that it was sudden and the reason unknown. This was because Shu Minghai's suicide had been covered up by his unit, with no one informed. 。

Cheng Chen kept crying at the train station. She didn't know why seeing Ting Lan made her feel heartache and want to cry. 。"Are you not coming back" she asked. 。"Well" 。"Tinglan nodded calmly, never to return." 。"Do you need your phone number anymore" "No."。"If it's needed, I'll find you on top of it." 。"Cheng Chen didn't want to lose her as a friend. That was her only request regarding Ting Lan." 。

"Good" 。After arriving in unfamiliar Senzhou, Tinglan and her mother were busy finding accommodation and adapting to their new surroundings. For a long time, they didn't go online or contact anyone. 。She and her mother depended on each other in Senzhou, but they rarely communicated, as if they had lost the ability to speak. During the days leading up to the start of school, they stayed quietly in a small rental house near the school. 。Even leaving that familiar environment, one can't truly walk away. People are always in a daze. 。Until Tinglan went back to school after the summer break, her mother took her there for registration, and that's when they truly came alive again. 。At the school's small supermarket, Mom prepared all her daily necessities one by one and then sent her to the dormitory. She helped her put things in order, make the bed smooth, and even placed a pack of snacks on each of her roommates' beds. 。She stood by the bed, watching her mother's frail body bustling about, a sour feeling welling up in her heart, yet she couldn't utter a single word. 。After she had everything ready for her departure, her mother said to her: "Study hard at school and don't worry about anything else." 。Also, maintaining good relationships with your roommates. These four years, this dormitory will be your home. 。"Listening nodded: "Mom, take care of yourself out there too." 。"

I know " 。Mom will also work hard to live, and after you graduate, Mom will help you buy a house in Senzhou. 。Tinglan doesn't want a house, she just wants to live with her mother forever. 。They both put on a brave face in front of each other, pretending to have forgotten everything that happened at Qining. But after sending their mother out of the school gates, she cried all the way back to her dormitory. 。From childhood to adulthood, I've never been apart from my mother. Besides the sadness of separation, there's also an immeasurable amount of worry in my heart. 。< Concerned about whether Mom is doing well living alone outside > 。 finally understand what Teacher Shi meant when he said your class is expensive. It really is."Shi Yan: "That's right, so you have to stay several times to get your money's worth."He is a wolf in shee...
