Mrs. Fang caressed her daughter’s forehead as tears ran down her cheeks.
Ye Qianqian lost count of how long she had been standing there, but, in the end, she didn’t wait until Fang Tongtong woke up. She decided to leave first on her own.
When she reached the first level of the hospital, she suddenly felt that she was way too hasty and impulsive. There was no doubt that all the facts were now lying right in front of them.
Shen Zhilie… didn’t have anything to do with Fang Tontong previously. It was her. She didn’t believe Shen Zhilie.
Ye Qianqian felt both irritated and upset. Her fingers glided through her hair. Her mind was occupied with the words he had said to her that evening.
[Qianqian, I have never done anything that wronged you. Before, now, or in the future.]
[Qianqian, I truly do love you.]
The cool and deep voice of Shen Zhilie rang in her ears. It sounded soft and gentle, yet sad. Ye Qianqian could almost imagine how desperate Shen Zhilie would be!
Such despair seemed to transfer from Shen Zhilie to herself. The sky was dark and heavy with a thick layer of fog. An overwhelming wave of sorrow swept over her uncontrollably.
With a lump in her throat, Ye Qianqian walked toward her car.
Oh, Shen Zhilie…
I’m sorry.

Grandfather’s funeral had been ongoing for several days, with all matters being handled and sorted out by the elders. Yet despite this, Ye Qianqian was still very occupied and busy. It had been a week since she had finished dealing with all the matters.
Li Jinnan brought his wife and aunt back to Kang City, dropped Ye Qianqian off at the gate of the neighborhood, then took a turn to drive home. However, Ye Qianqian didn’t plan to go upstairs. Instead, she picked up her phone and opened the dial screen. She pressed the familiar number. The other line seemed to be busy. Nobody answered it after two calls.
Never mind then…
Just as Ye Qianqian was about to hang up, somebody suddenly answered the phone. “Hello?”
It was a gentle and soft female voice. It sounded like someone a few years younger than herself.
Ye Qianqian’s whole body instantly froze up like a dead body when she heard the voice. The voice didn’t get a response from her and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
Ye Qianqian didn’t say a word and instinctively hung up the phone. She didn’t realize until after she hung up that her heart was racing. As if… she was guilty and caught in the act.
She checked again. It was indeed Chen Zhilie’s number. If she remembered correctly, Shen Zhilie’s previous contact name for her on his mobile phone was “future wife” with a little love emoji behind the name. But the girl who answered apparently didn’t know who Ye Qianqian was… Either Shen Zhilie had changed her contact name, or he had simply deleted her contact on his phone.
Ye Qianqian felt an array of complicated emotions inside. It felt absolutely awful, but soon enough, she laughed at herself and said, “You asked for this.”
Who said that Chen Zhilie could only be with her? Who said that he couldn’t see other people after she broke up with him? But it just felt really terrible to go through this…
She went upstairs, feeling lost and empty, as if part of her soul had left her body. As soon as she went inside, she spotted the small fish tank. The dynamic little fish were swimming around in the water buoyantly, their tails swinging, carefree, from left to right. The water plants bobbed along with the water currents.
“How strong they are…” Ye Qianqian couldn’t help but sigh as she looked at the strikingly colorful, beautiful, and eye-catching fish inside the tank.
She was indeed fond of them all, yet, even without her, they could carry on with their lives perfectly.
Isn’t this true? Who really needs to rely on somebody else to be able to carry on with their lives?
