After returning to the dormitory, Qingtian was packing her luggage. A classmate who came back from outside told her that someone was looking for her and was waiting outside.

Who else would come to see her?

Qingtian wondered: Zhangzhu? Or Aunt Lin? Apart from them, she had no other acquaintances?

I walked out of the dormitory suspiciously, and the person I saw outside was Wan Xuening.

The dean's daughter? What do you want to see her for?

"I don't need to introduce myself, right?" Wan Xuening looked at her condescendingly.

Qingtian stared at her and had a vague feeling that Zhiyuan’s unhappiness might get an answer tonight.

Wan Xuening snorted coldly, "You just came back from a date with Zhiyuan, right? Are you happy?"

Wan Xuening was very aggressive. Before Qingtian could say anything, she pushed him in front of her and said, "You seem happy, but don't you know how miserable Zhiyuan is?"

"His project was not approved, did you know that?"

"He worked so hard and put so much effort into it, but it wasn't approved. Do you know that?"

"Also, he has outstanding achievements and could have been promoted to associate professor, but now that has been scrapped. Did you know that?"

"Do you know why all this happened?"

With every question Wan Xuening asked, Qingtian took a step back, until he was pushed to the stairs and fell to the ground.

Wan Xuening's voice came from above, full of anger and questioning, "It's all because of you! Because of you! Do you know? If it weren't for you ruining my relationship with Zhiyuan, my dad wouldn't be angry with Zhiyuan! He wouldn't have rejected his research project and wouldn't have revoked his qualification for the associate professorship evaluation!"

Every word of Wan Xuening's words was like a thunderclap, exploding above her head. She was completely shattered as if struck by five bolts of lightning.

"Zhiyuan is so good! He graduated from a prestigious university, has a PhD from overseas, is the most respected young talent in the hospital, is a rising star in the medical field, and has a bright future! Yes, who doesn't like such a man? You like him too, and you want to marry him, right? If you marry Zhiyuan, you will achieve a breakthrough, from the countryside to the capital, how wonderful! Isn't it? But have you ever thought about what you can bring to Zhiyuan?"

"What can you bring to him besides being a burden?"

"Are you satisfied now? Zhiyuan has nothing left, and you have caused him so much suffering. Are you satisfied now?"

After Wan Xuening finished yelling, he turned around and left.

Qingtian sat on the steps with her hands on her knees for a long time. The only thing she could hear was Wan Xuening's voice questioning her: Apart from being a burden, what can you bring to him?

And the sound of Wan Xuening's high heels hitting the ground when she left was like a huge hammer, hitting her heart again and again...

On the morning that Qingtian left, Zhiyuan sent her a message, but Qingtian did not reply to him.

On his way to work, he took a detour and went to Qingtian's school, only to find out that Qingtian and the others had already left.

Zhiyuan stood in the empty campus, a little confused: She had clearly promised him to tell him when she left.

He called Qingtian's cell phone, which rang for a long time before Qingtian answered.

There came a low voice from Qingtian, "Hello?"

"What time is your train? Why did you leave without telling me? My mom was asking you about it."

Qingtian held the phone in her hand, listening to his voice. She felt very sad, but she smiled widely, as if he could see it. "I told you that the buses will all leave together. It's okay. I'm already on the bus. I'm not a child anymore. I'll go play with Aunt Lin when she returns to the island."

"You only remember Aunt Lin? You heartless thing! I'm still your boyfriend?" Zhiyuan said with a smile.

There was suddenly no sound from the other end.

Zhiyuan quickly added, "I was just kidding, don't be angry, even if it's fake, you should have told me, so there's always a beginning and an end!"

Still no response. After a while, there was a burst of noise. After the noise, Qingtian's voice sounded again, "The signal is not very good. I'll hang up first. Bye!"
