Su Qiao An was recuperating at Qi Yuan Yuan's home. He had a small cold but it was not serious and when he was pregnant, he could not be injected with medicine. He could only be treated physically.

She covered her body with a thick blanket and forced herself to break out in cold sweat. She curled up on the bed, unwilling to move.

When Qi Yuan Yuan came in with the soup and saw that she had wrapped him up like a dumpling, he asked worriedly, "Since you're so afraid of the cold, why don't you go to the hospital to take a look?"

She gathered up her quilt and shook her head, refusing to go to the hospital.

"Then, let's eat something first. Only after you've eaten your fill will you have strength." Su Qiao An refused to go to the hospital, so Qi Yuan Yuan had no choice but to take her. He placed the tray on the bedside, opened the lid of the soup cup and took out a bowl for her.

Seeing Su Qiao An obediently drink the soup, Qi Yuan Yuan sat down on the side of the bed and said, "I will help you settle the matter of you leaving as soon as possible, and you don't have to worry about Grandma Chen. After you leave, I will bring her over."

"Thank you." He said that they were going to cut off all ties. Since the start of the Cold War, all these years after they graduated, neither of them had taken the initiative to contact anyone else, never did he expect that until now, when she was at her most helpless, the only person willing to help was Qi Yuan Yuan.

"No matter what, we are still friends. You don't need to thank me. I'm not like you. I don't have a conscience like you!" Qi Yuan Yuan said snappily.

They had quarreled, and even if their words had been harsh, wasn't it all for her own good?

All these years, Qi Yuan Yuan had only been able to see Zhu Jiangci's movements through all sorts of media channels and gossip magazines. The gossip was unceasing, and he reckoned that as the Mrs. Chu, Su Qiao An should not be having a good time either.

When she saw Su Qiao An calling that day, Qi Yuan Yuan was stunned for a long time.

After so many years, the two were reunited.

When she saw Su Qiao An standing alone by the fountain from afar, she immediately felt her nose sour and her eyes astringent. She did not want to see Su Qiao An having a bad time, even though they had been extremely noisy back then.

Qi Yuan Yuan had never hated Su Qiao An. Her goal was only to make sure that his only good friend would be able to live a happy life.

Seeing her in such a miserable state, Yuan Yuan had all sorts of feelings for her in his heart.

Hearing that, Su Qiao An smiled faintly, "You are right, I am very stupid and heartless. If I had listened to you earlier, my life would have been different now!"

After countless dark nights, she had also thought about what her life would have been like if she hadn't been so determined to step into this fiery pit.

Maybe just doing an ordinary job with a small salary and living a busy but fulfilling life.

Perhaps she would meet the person who was on good terms with her. After they got together, their lives were very ordinary, but they were very happy.

Su Qiao An had wanted to live another life, but that life lacked a reason that could make her heart palpitate, nor was there any special existence that could pull her emotions up and down.

After thinking about it, Su Qiao An felt that if she could try again, she might make the same mistake again.

"Alright, let's not talk about these unhappy things anymore. Just remember this carefully, although Auntie Su Rong has left you, in this world, you are not only alone, you also have me, and in the future, you will still have the baby in your stomach. You are not alone, and don't always be bored like this, if anything happens, just tell me, and I will definitely help you."

The corner of Su Qiao An's mouth turned into a faint smile, and his eyebrows curved into a crescent moon.

It was she who had been blinded by that one leaf, always putting herself in that miserable and miserable role, and moved herself to be unable to move others. In fact, she had someone she could rely on at her side, and it was she herself who refused to approach.

She took a deep breath and said in a low, hoarse voice, "I will remember this well. Don't worry, I will definitely live a good life."

For the sake of her children, she would try to make herself well.

"That's right. It's not like you can't live without a man! What did Zhu Jiangci count for? "You blind bastard, thank god for getting rid of him as soon as possible, burning incense to worship Buddha!" The man's attitude was too cold. She felt that it was not worth it for Su Qiao An.

Seeing her angrily gritting her teeth, Su Qiao An chuckled.

Other than Qi Yuan Yuan, no one else would treat Zhu Jiangci so badly.

The women around the man were dazzling. In recent years, she had seen him appear in gossip magazines with different women almost every week, and it was hard not to see him.

Putting aside his family background, just looking at Zhu Jiangci was enough to make her fall for him like crazy. Only Yuan Yuan had been against him since the first time he met her, and when he went over, he scolded Zhu Jiangci in front of her.

"Do you know why I dislike him so much?" Su Qiao An was startled. He raised his eyes to look at her with eyes full of suspicion.

Her face was filled with rare seriousness, "From the moment I laid eyes on Zhu Jiangci, I already knew that we were not people from the same world, this kind of society is too realistic, your dream of becoming Cinderella would never come true. I don't want to see my best friend become a human or a ghost for a man, I hope you can be more rational and not fall into that pit.

Unfortunately, Su Qiao An was still caught up in it. Before she even got to know Qi Yuan Yuan, she had already been stuck in it.

That part of her past had become a cinnabar mole in her heart. She had never told anyone, and she had no desire to confide in anyone else.

Su Qiao An smiled, and did not say a word.

How could she not understand something that all outsiders could see? Su Qiao An was just unwilling to let go of her dream of chasing after him for so many years. She was unwilling to accept defeat, and only then did she push herself to the edge of the cliff step by step.

Right now, she couldn't enter nor retreat. She couldn't complain about the heavens and the earth, and she had no medicine for regret.

Stepping on the stilts, she also felt dizzy and scared, but what could she do? The person she chose to step on was herself.

It was a pity that reality wasn't an idol movie, as she had worked so hard for nothing more than this.

Qi Yuan Yuan looked at her intently for a long time, then stood up and left. When he returned, she held a metal box in his hands.

Under Su Qiao An's gaze, Qi Yuan Yuan gave the metal box to her and said, "This was given to me by Aunt Su, she originally wanted me to give you a suitable opportunity, and in these past few years, you haven't contacted me, so this thing has always been here for you. Now that the item has returned to its original owner, open it up, look, Auntie Su said that there is everything you want to know about it."
