"Remember." Xiao Jirong's voice pondered for a moment, "So?"

"I want you to fulfill your promise." Mu Siyu sighed, "I can agree to your request and I can leave, but before leaving, I want to realize this wish with you."

When she said this, Mu Siyu felt sad in her heart, but the reality was already like this, and she had no choice but to make a choice.

"Okay." After a long time, Xiao Jirong's affirmative voice came from the other end of the phone, "Next week, the day before you leave, we will go to a Western restaurant."

"I won't go to a Western restaurant." Mu Siyu immediately denied, "I want to be at home."

"Okay." Xiao Jirong responded, "I still have something to do here, so I'll hang up now. I'll let Sister-in-law Li prepare for it then."

"Yeah." Mu Siyu smiled sadly, but the only busy signal on the other end of the phone was the call hanging up.

She suddenly felt lost, as if something had deteriorated between her and Xiao Jirong.

There was an inexplicable missing piece in her heart, but she didn't know what was missing. Maybe it was that persistence, maybe that kind of determination.

But she never regretted that she had loved him so persistently.

Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and returned to Anlu under the afternoon sun.

Anlu kept his word. Not only did he change her to a big bed in the ward, but he also prepared delicious foods such as bananas and apples for her.

She looked at An Lu with a teasing look, "You'll make me fat if you do this."

An Lu answered with a smile while holding the philosophy book, "Then you can obediently turn your grief into appetite, and it will be good to become fat. Look at our housekeeper, he becomes more amiable after getting fat."

"I want to tell the housekeeper that you are kidding him!" Mu Siyu laughed while eating the fruit, as unscrupulous as ever.

"Go ahead." An Lu responded nonchalantly, "You can also ask him what's the secret to getting fat."

"...Anlu, you bad boy."

"Each other."

Mu Siyu curled her lips, and suddenly turned her eyes to look at An Lu as if remembering something, "By the way, I have decided to go to the northern suburbs to study and leave here."

"Yes." An Lu turned the page of the book without raising his head, "When I get better in a while, I will go to the northern suburbs to see you."

"Why don't you let me come back to see you?" Mu Siyu asked.

"Because you won't come back." An Lu smiled and clearly expressed Mu Siyu's thoughts, "If you finally decide to leave, you won't want to come back. I understand."

Mu Siyu chuckled, excitedly stepped forward and rubbed An Lu's head, "Boy! You are the one who knows me best!"

"Don't be like a gangster." An Lu shook her off, "If you don't mind previewing your homework first, I have basic algebraic statistics here. You can take a look at it first."

"...Child, has anyone told you that you are a monster..." Looking at the pile of textbooks placed beside An Lu's desk, Mu Siyu suddenly felt dizzy and wailed.

A week passed quickly. During this week, Mu Siyu kept her phone turned off and did not contact anyone, including Song Ying.

In a short period of time, she didn't know how to face her, so she simply didn't face her.

Every day, An Lu and An Lu talked and joked in the ward, and their days were as carefree as the days in the orphanage.

But, how can one be carefree?
