Sijun was deeply hurt, but he could do nothing about it.

His parents' words always lingered in his ears.

In the eyes of their parents, such girls are not very smart, and their relatives and friends do not look favorably upon them.

Sijun could only heal his heart every day. Every night, he lay on the bed with his eyes closed and recalled the wonderful time he and Manxian had spent for more than nine months.

He could never forget Manxian, and he would even run to the second bedroom to smell the pillow that Manxian had slept on. There was the scent of Manxian's hair on it, which was a familiar smell to Sijun, but also a smell that pierced his heart.

During the seven-day National Day holiday, Sijun was bored at home. His grandmother was still bedridden and slept most of the time. Every day, apart from visiting his grandmother and helping his parents take care of her, he would just sit in his room and be in a daze.

He would check Man Xian's Moments several times a day. Even though he knew that Man Xian was a person who would not post to Moments for half a year, he still checked the old content that he had already read so many times over every day.

The seven-day holiday passed quickly and Sijun returned to the house where he worked.

This house was originally intended for him and Manxian to use when they got married, but Manxian only stayed there for one night before parting ways with him.

He came to the second bedroom again and found that the fragrance of the pillow where Man Xian had slept had gradually dissipated, leaving only a little bit.

He felt extremely empty and lonely inside, and everything around him was cold and deserted.

But life has to go on, and he forced himself to cheer up and throw himself into the intense work after the long vacation.

During this period, his mother also told him that many people had introduced him to new partners and asked him if he wanted to go and take a look.

Sijun made excuses to decline one by one, he really couldn't forget Manxian.

As for Man Xian, she was even more heartbroken during this period.

As a doctor in the imaging department, she has dozens of imaging reports to write every day, but she has no mood to do so.

Fortunately, she was strong enough to overcome her sadness and had enough energy to barely complete her work tasks.

For Manxian, this National Day holiday was without any color or laughter.

It is a true reflection of her inner thoughts, just as one line of lyrics says: The city night is bright with neon lights, and all the happiness has nothing to do with me.

Her mother hopes that her daughter can come home so that she can cook some delicious meals for her daughter to nourish her body. She also hopes that her daughter will be in a better mood after returning home.

Manxian did not go home. She did not want her emotions to affect her family, so she chose to bear this sadness alone. She used this holiday to travel to several cities and recorded her travels by punching in.

Manxian loves traveling, and has fantasized countless times about traveling across the mountains and rivers of the motherland with her beloved. She even hopes that in the future they will have the opportunity to visit several famous scenic spots abroad together.

She had originally thought that she could go to many places with Sijun to enjoy the beauty of traveling during the National Day, but she never expected that she would end up healing herself alone.

Manxian's family did not allow her to meet other boys because they understood that it takes a certain amount of time for a girl to get over the shadow of her last relationship.

One night, Sijun received a call from his aunt. His aunt sounded very troubled, and Sijun knew something must have happened.

It turned out that his parents were arguing again.

My aunt said that Sijun’s grandmother is now bedridden and sleeps most of the time. Even when she wakes up occasionally, she is not in good condition. It is extremely difficult to feed her, and sometimes it takes more than an hour to feed her.

In addition, Sijun's grandfather is also very old and needs a lot of care, and there are so many housework to do. Sijun's parents often quarrel, and after the quarrel they will tell Sijun's aunt, and she doesn't know how to persuade them.

Therefore, Sijun's aunt hopes that Sijun can also persuade his parents and try to calm them down.

Sijun himself was actually full of worries, but he didn't want to tell others too much about himself and Manxian, so he could only agree to it for the time being.

The call from his aunt made Sijun even more upset.

He really wanted to find someone who understood him and have a good talk with him.

It is impossible to ask my own parents, they can only preach, not to mention that they still have conflicts among themselves that have not been resolved.

He really wanted to find Man Xian to talk about his inner pain.

However, Manxian blocked him on WeChat, and he didn't dare to call her because he didn't know how to talk to her.

He thought of a way and sent a text message to Man Xian. The content was as simple as it could be, just a distressed emoticon.

After sending this emoticon package, he felt extremely tired. It was already past 1 p.m., so he fell asleep.

After waking up, he checked his phone and found that Man Xian had replied to him: "Brother, I have nothing to do with you now. Please don't bother me anymore, okay?"

Sijun continued to send messages: "My parents are arguing again, and my grandmother is still bedridden with no obvious improvement. I am so upset. I am sending you an emoticon pack. At least I will feel better."

After sending this text message, Sijun went to work.

After two hours, Man Xian still hadn't replied. He felt that he had indeed disturbed her and shouldn't affect others with his troubles.

But to his surprise, he received another reply from Man Xian: "Since we were together in the past, let me comfort you again. I have seen your grandmother's film, her health is not too bad, and she will get better slowly. As for your parents' conflicts, that is their previous generation's business, don't worry about it anymore. I know you are a filial person, but you can't change anything, you can only be happy yourself."

After reading Manxian's text message, Sijun was deeply moved.

That night, he tossed and turned even more, with Man Xian's voice and smile filling his mind.

The next day at noon, he received another text message from Man Xian: "If you feel depressed, go out for a walk, don't stay at home every day!"

Sijun replied: "Then would you like to walk with me?"

Manxian replied: "I have a lot of pieces to write today, so I won't be free until at least 8:30 pm. Please come over at that time."

Sijun was extremely happy, even ecstatic. During the half month that he had been apart from Manxian, he had been thinking about this girl every day. Although this girl had a personality and a bad temper, she was very straightforward and honest, and Sijun liked that.

That night, on the way to the appointment, Sijun's heart was still pounding. He didn't know if Man Xian would come back to him after this night.
