In contrast with the dire struggles of the Yu family, Wang Cheng lived quite comfortably. After leaving Beijing University, he called Wang Ziyu from time to time to ask about her school situation. This was mostly because he was afraid that she still felt affection towards Gu Li, and that they’d somehow get close again. No matter what Gu Li’s intentions were, Wang Cheng didn't want to see that kind of thing happen again. For this reason, he also specifically instructed Qian Baobao to notify him immediately if something was suspicious. Fortunately, the school was on holiday.

Wang Ziyu seemed to have really seen things clearly, and she didn't go to Gu Li again after that. Even though Gu Li was injured because of her, she always found someone else to deliver meals or give condolences. It seemed that she really let him go.

On the contrary, Gu Li couldn’t seem to let her go. After everything had gone down, he went to Wang Ziyu privately, saying that he didn't expect his hidden identity to harm her, and hoped for her forgiveness.

Wang Ziyu told him that she didn't blame him, but her attitude was a lot more alienated. The times when they’d laugh and chat together no longer existed. Gu Li resorted to playing the ‘miserable’ card, yet she was still indifferent. Wang Ziyu had been acting like this for several days now, as if she suddenly changed back into the original Wang Ziyu who only devoted herself to studying. Gu Li knew that he had misjudged Wang Ziyu, and never appeared in front of her again. Sometimes he’d have someone deliver breakfast for Wang Ziyu, but every time, it entered Pang Chunjuan’s stomach.

One good thing came after another; Zheng Jingen suddenly called Wang Cheng to come back to the Zheng house that weekend.

The Zheng family was holding a family gathering that weekend. As a member of the Zheng family, Wang Cheng should come back if he wasn’t too busy. Wang Cheng didn’t intend to stay at first, and only planned to see a few faces to make them happy. However, Zheng Jingen told him there would be a good show, so for the sake of watching the drama, Wang Cheng ended up agreeing.

The weekend soon came.

Chu Yifeng drove Wang Cheng to the Zheng house’s neighborhood, and set a time to pick Wang Cheng up before leaving.

The Zheng family was more lively than usual this weekend since many juniors had come back. Zheng Ru, who had been ordered by Old Man Zheng not to come home ofen, brought her husband and son back to meet the Zheng family today. Wei Qiqi was originally supposed to come, but she refused to, as if she anticipated that something was going to happen.
