Shi Guang looked at the pouring rain outside while waiting for Lu Yanchen.
Click, clock…
The clean tapping sounds of high heels rang out as a tall, slender woman in a purple gown stood beside Shi Guang. Instinctively, she turned her head around and caught sight of a smiling Su Ya.
She had walked over slowly before stopping beside Shi Guang. As she smiled out, there was a distinct class and arrogance on her captivating expression; yet, there were traces of disdain and contempt in them. It was as though Shi Guang was the cheapest lifeform on this planet in her eyes.
Understanding her meaning, Shi Guang’s face was expressionless as she returned the stare, revealing none of her emotions. That seemingly indifferent stare of Shi Guang’s was lined with a deep coldness.
A black sedan stopped outside the door as a chauffeur came down with an umbrella before opening the doors to the back seat courteously. Lowering her long lashes ever so slightly, Su Ya walked out and entered.
Shi Guang looked at the back view of her leaving indifferently.
‘This place was so big and yet you chose to stand beside me. Was that intentional?’
‘To display your contempt?’
‘Hmph!’
Shi Guang laughed, unable to hold herself back. No matter the family background of some people or how well they dressed, they just could not hide the cheapness in their bones.
She had suddenly lost the patience to continue waiting.
A taxi had just stopped by the roadside coincidentally. Hesitating for a moment, Shi Guang strode out toward it.
…
Lu Yanchen’s phone had been ringing the entire time–it was Mrs. Lu. He did not wish to pick up, but it rang endlessly.
Hence, he had no choice but to slide and pick up the call.
Before he said anything, he could hear his mother’s flustered and repressed voice,
Why have you left? Are you trying to anger your dad to death? If you don’t wish for Shi Guang to end up receiving the wrath of your dad, hurry and head home after sending Shi Guang back.
Got it!
Lu Yanchen gave a clear cut reply as he drove forth after hanging up. When he arrived at the entrance, he saw Shi Guang boarding a taxi without waiting for him. Closing his eyes for a moment, he followed the car…

It was especially quiet in the nursing home at night.
With the lights barely lit, there was a solemn darkness in the wards. Other than the symbols and beeping of the medical equipment, there was no other sound in the surroundings.
Shi Guang sat on a chair beside the bedside and looked at her peacefully sleeping sister.
Sis…
After a long time, she spoke out softly once more,
It has been 7 years now. You’ve slept enough. When are you going to wake up? The doctor said that you have a high chance of waking up, but you have to fight for it. Therefore, you must fight on and not leave me alone…
As she spoke, tears flowed down uncontrollably.
She sniffed and controlled her emotions before continuing softly,
Today, I seemed to have experienced the same sort of helplessness as you had back then…
Pausing for a moment, she shook her head gently.
No, no. What I’ve experienced today was probably even less than 10% of what you felt back then. But, just that 10% was enough for me to feel that terrible. I can’t imagine how despaired you must have felt back then.
The patient was totally silent, merely lying quietly to be a good listener.
Shi Guang reached out and caressed her sister’s face.
You weren’t even in the same class as them, neither were you guys familiar with one another. In fact, you weren’t really even acquainted. But, why did they have to do that to you? Just because their family backgrounds are good, they can bully others as they will? Trample on others? I swore that I wouldn’t do anything to them… but I believe that the Heavens are watching! One fine day, they’re going to receive their retribution!
