But he knew, no matter what happened, as long as she wasn’t dead, she would never miss a single exam.
The rain was drizzling outside, and she, along with several other girls beside her, didn’t use umbrellas. They were frolicking and rushing into the rain, their faces adorned with the same radiant smiles as usual, giving no hint of any gloom.
He didn’t show himself, for such a smile, even if it was just a facade, he couldn’t bear to disturb.
After a while, Gong Xiaoqiao emerged from the dormitory building, her face covered with a mask and wearing a striking red trench coat.
Gu Hangshen stepped to the side and hid behind a tree.
It had been four years since he had seen her in such a bright shade of red.
She suited red clothes very well. As a child, she always loved to wear bright and attractive outfits, hopping around to catch his attention, “Hangshen brother, Xiaoqiao is here, here…”
She said it would make it easier for Hangshen brother to see her.
Back then, Xiaoqiao always used every method to amplify her presence, so afraid of being neglected and abandoned.
For some reason, he suddenly remembered the day he left for studying abroad in America, when the little one was also dressed in red at the airport, stubbornly clutching the corner of his clothes, her expression defiant, her eyes filled with fear…
When he first went to America, he never thought that there would be someone to take his place, yet, that person indeed appeared…
Gu Hangshen followed her all the way to the cemetery on the outskirts of the city.
Next to the tombstone lay a large bunch of white roses with raindrops on the petals, still looking fresh, as if someone had just visited.
Upon seeing this, Gong Xiaoqiao, angered, rushed up to throw the bouquet away and then took out a small, dark purple flower from her pocket and placed it in front of the tombstone.
It was… a black mandrake.
Desperate love, the road of no return, revenge…
He always thought that over the years, his efforts had somewhat healed her heart, but that little flower seemed to mock all his efforts.

Scenes from that day once again came to Gu Hangshen’s mind.
She narrated word by word about the days when he was not around, her past with Qin Yao, the vows she and Qin Yao had made…
She had been in agony over Qin Yao, hysterical over him, heartbroken and devastated for him…
Even after a full four years, the moment Qin Yao appeared, all the efforts he had made instantly turned to ashes.
He didn’t know when it started, but every argument between them, every battle, was because of Qin Yao, Qin Yao, Qin Yao…
The name Qin Yao was like a nightmare he couldn’t shake off.
Perhaps it was the confusion of being involved, but Gu Hangshen didn’t realize that from Gong Xiaoqiao’s perspective, the direct cause of the wars wasn’t Qin Yao, but rather Gu Xiaorou.
What she cared about was that under any circumstances, he favored Gu Xiaorou, while what bothered him was that after four years, she was still so out of control because of Qin Yao.
That day, after she left, he discovered a special card tied with a pink butterfly knot.
The small card lay there obediently, overturning all his principles in an instant, filling him with unprecedented regret!
Regret for everything that had made her suffer…
What should have been done, what shouldn’t have been done; what was right, and what was wrong.
He originally thought she was throwing a temper tantrum and had truly forgotten his birthday, but then he found this card that hadn’t been given in time.
This was the thing that she treasured that day and wouldn’t let Xiaorou touch.
The card was blank, nothing was written on it.
A blank card, representing any gift he wanted.
She always had a way to move him so deeply that it hurt.
