That night, the lights outside Qiao's house were brightly lit, but no one could sleep inside.

Qiao Muyuan tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep. Lying on the bed, she could clearly hear the rain outside the window, pattering and lingering.

It was a bit cold at night, so she clutched the quilt and opened her eyes to look out the window.

Lawyer Huang called her in the evening and told her that the agreement had been handed over to Ji Changmu and that if an interview was needed, he would fly to Qiongzhou immediately.

Ji Changmu didn't say anything, probably acquiescing to the divorce, but after all, Ji Changmu was busy with his career, so it might take some days before he could reply to her.

Qiao Muyuan's body became a little colder. When he occasionally closed his eyes, he saw scenes from the past before his eyes.

Don't think about it, don't think about it, don't ask about it, from now on we are apart.

It was almost early in the morning before Qiao Muyuan fell asleep. Before dawn, she had another nightmare. She dreamed that her brother had fallen into the abyss and reached out to her in pain, calling her name.

Qiao Muyuan woke up with a start, covered in sweat.

She was extremely frightened and trembled in fear.

The nightmare was too real, as if it was actually happening before her eyes.

Qiao Muyuan turned on the desk lamp and realized that his palms were sweaty and his broken hair was stuck to his forehead.

It was pitch black outside.

She couldn't sleep and didn't dare to fall asleep again. After washing, she changed into a set of clothes and sat motionless on the balcony.

It rained all night and didn't stop.

Qiao Zhixing had a flight in the morning. He got up very early. He didn't sleep well all night. He simply ate a few slices of bread in the morning.

Thinking that Qiao Muyuan hadn't gotten up yet, he asked the servant to carry the luggage out quietly, but turned around and saw Qiao Muyuan on the stairs.

"Sister, morning."

"Zhixing, are you going back to school?"

"Well, I bought the ticket and I'm leaving now."

"I'll give it to you."

Qiao Zhixing did not refuse and nodded: "Okay."

Qiao Muyuan wore an off-white long windbreaker and tied a silk scarf around her neck. She walked up to Qiao Zhixing and walked with him to the garage.

Tao Wenxing followed: "Miss, you haven't had breakfast yet."

"I'm not hungry either. It won't be too late to eat when I get back."

Tao Wenxing didn't try to persuade him anymore and watched Qiao Muyuan and Qiao Zhixing walk out of Qiao's house together.

In the car, Qiao Muyuan kept telling Qiao Zhixing not to be too tired from studying when he went back, and to remember to go to New York often to see his parents, and to keep the right and wrong in Beijing hidden from his mother, especially her and Ji.

Changmu’s divorce.

Qiao Zhixing responded one by one.

Halfway through the journey, it was already bright, but the air was still filled with the desolation of the Qingming Festival. It was raining heavily and there were few pedestrians.

Qiao Zhixing wore a peaked cap with the brim very low.

After entering the airport, he stopped and said, "Sister, just send it here. If you are not busy, I will come back during the summer vacation. If you are tired, go to New York. We will all wait for you there. Don't embarrass yourself too much."

"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore." She smiled at him, her smile still filled with sweetness and tenderness.

Qiao Zhixing's heart felt sour and bitter.

His sister was supposed to be a carefree little princess, a girl who was loved by the whole family, but now she had to stop her studies and shoulder a burden that should not be hers.

He hoped that in the future, someone would be able to help her solve her problems and protect her from wind and rain, instead of letting her be disappointed again and again while waiting.

It's better to be separated from Ji Changmu.
