Since when did he get tired of Jiang Kerou's pitiful appearance?
It was as if every time something went wrong, she would look at him pitifully, as if not following her will would be a huge sin on her part.
Zhu Jiangci would hide from her whenever he could, and he would ignore her if he couldn't hide.
Out of the corner of his eye he saw the wallet on the bedside table. He was startled as he reached out to grab the wallet.
He opened his wallet and saw the photo in the middle. His eyes dimmed.
No one dared to bring up what happened two years ago in front of him, and no one would ever bring up Su Qiao An again.
If not for the fact that he still had this photo, he would probably have thought that there was no one called Su Qiao An in this world, and everything he had experienced was just an illusion.
The person in the photo was still smiling like a flower, he had never seen Su Qiao An smile so happily before.
Zhu Jiangci laughed self-deprecatingly as his fingertips gently caressed the photo.
The current Su Qiao An should be living a good life, at least better than before.
Two years ago, the Old Man had asked him if he regretted it.
Two years ago, even though he'd felt a peculiar feeling in his heart, he still couldn't let go of his pride and refused to admit it.
Two years from now, if anyone else had asked, he would probably have answered truthfully.
Yes, he regretted it.
There were some people who were so weak that it was hard for anyone to recall them. However, when she left, she suddenly realized that the seemingly unimportant person had long since seeped into his life.
He could not differentiate between guilt and love. Perhaps the feelings he had towards Su Qiao An were the deep feelings of guilt and regret he had experienced in the past two years.
Zhu Jiangci closed his wallet, and swallowed the surging waves of pain with difficulty.

The morning light was faint, and the warm, dazzling sunlight shone through the dense foliage, projecting tiny rings of light on the concrete floor.
Su Qiao An's footsteps were light and unhurried as she walked down the dark and cool street. The wind blew past her leaves and unintentionally lifted the long hair that fell on her shoulders, revealing her beautiful side view.
Her dress drew a beautiful arc in the air as she moved. Suddenly, she took off the white earphones that she had stuffed into her ears, raised her hand, and waved towards the people waiting for her under the tree.
When Shen Yi saw her, he was so excited that he was about to wave his hand and shout, "Here! Qiao An, come over quickly! "
Su Qiao An ran over and hugged her. He rubbed his head on her shoulder and said, "Aiyo, it's not like your family member is willing to let you out!"
She had originally wanted to explain, but later on, she changed her mind and decided not to explain. It didn't matter at all, she didn't care about the people who were excluded from her world.
Shen Yi was the first friend she had made in the Southern City in these two years, and also the only one.
Although it was considered a form of friendship, it was actually because Shen Yi was more adherent than average. She spoke freely and was especially straightforward, unable to withstand Shen Yi's passion and enthusiasm. Su Qiao An was envious of Shen Yi, hence he was able to laugh heartily and live a carefree life.
The reason why she was getting closer to Shen Yi was because of the special characteristics on his body that deeply attracted her.
"What are you thinking about?" Shen Yi released her and saw that she was standing there absent-mindedly, so he knocked on her head.
Su Qiao An regained his senses and laughed lightly: "Nothing, I'm just trying to pick out a present, as if he's not lacking in anything."
"Tsk, you're right, but your family doesn't seem to have any requests for gifts. I think as long as you personally give it to him, he'll be very happy, right?"
Su Qiao An thought about it for a long time. In the first year, her condition gradually improved. On his birthday, unaware of everything, she had followed him blindly to a cake which he had cooked, which he had bought, and which he had even washed.
The next year, she forced herself to remember his birthday, but it was forgotten, though he was not in Southside but in the States that day, and it took him more than a week to get back from abroad.
It was the third year, and she had almost forgotten his birthday.
But speaking of it, this seemed to be the first time Mo Yunlang had said that her birthday was going to be held so solemnly and formally.
"Don't think about it. Why don't we go out and look around first? When we see something suitable, we'll buy it!" Shen Yi said excitedly as he held her arm.
"Yes." Su Qiao An did not like going to places where there were many people, let alone shopping.
After following Shen Yi around twice before arriving at the commercial city, Shen Yi pulled her to walk around. Su Qiao An did not know whether to laugh or cry.
After walking for most of the morning, Su Qiao An did not buy a single thing. On the other hand, Shen Yi who came to accompany her bought a whole pile of things, as she said in dissatisfaction, "Why aren't you buying a single thing? On the other hand, look at me, I've already bought so many, how should I go back later? "
Shen Yi frowned her small face in distress, "I say, have you chosen yet? If you continue to stroll around, I definitely won't be able to control my desire to chop off my own hands. I'm going to go bankrupt!"
She shook her head. "Not yet."
Shen Yi sighed, holding onto his head, he bit on the straw in his mouth and looked around. He accidentally caught a glimpse of a man's clothing store and with a flash of inspiration, he said, "Why don't we just buy a shirt or something, as long as it's a gift from you, I don't think he will mind."
"Isn't that good? It doesn't seem to be interested. "
"Please!" Shen Yi said with great disgust, "I have already accompanied you for the entire morning. You haven't bought anything, and you have also wasted a lot of time and energy. You have to know that I am in the late night shift, so I have sacrificed my beauty sleep time to accompany you to buy birthday presents. As long as you mean what you say, he will be able to feel it. "
Shen Yi held onto the location of his heart, and said with a serious tone.
Su Qiao An was startled, but after thinking about it, she felt that Shen Yi's words were reasonable, as long as she was sincere, she would be satisfied. Mo Yunlang was not lacking in anything, why would she drag others to accompany her in suffering?
The suddenly enlightened Su Qiao An nodded, "Alright, I'll listen to you."
Shen Yi heaved a sigh of relief, the two of them went to the commercial city's café to rest for a while, then Shen Yi pulled her into the men's clothing store to buy things.
Su Qiao An looked at the items very carefully when he was picking. He picked up his clothes and tie and started to organize them in his mind to see if they were suitable for Mo Yunlang.
At the same time, a group of people arrived from the first floor to the third floor.
The man walking in front of them was tall and straight, with a cool and imposing aura. The people following beside him nodded and smiled, "This is the clothing store on the third floor of our department store. In addition to the men's and women's clothing store, there's also a café and a milk tea shop."
