Actually, this isn’t so bad.

She should have realized earlier that Wei Lu is not just ordinarily concerned about Yan Zhufei... Although there’s an age gap, what does that matter?

True love has no boundaries...

Thinking of Yan Zhufei finding someone she likes, Mo Jun couldn’t help but think of Xia Pu. Xia Pu still refused to accept treatment, waiting all along for Pei Yuanze to return.

Mo Jun worried about her, not knowing if Pei Yuanze could come back.

If he can’t return, what will Xia Pu do?

Xia Pu loves him dearly; if Pei Yuanze can’t come back, she might really follow after him.

For Xia Pu’s sake, Mo Jun also asked Hao Yansen to help search for Pei Yuanze. Actually, even without her asking, Hao Yansen would help since Pei Yuanze was his friend too.

As time passed, Pei Yuanze still hadn’t been found. This, for Xia Pu, was a good sign; at least no news was good news.

What she feared most was discovering someone no longer living.

Mo Jun would visit her often, persuading her occasionally to accept treatment. But Xia Pu always refused, though she wasn’t wasting away anymore; she lived well each day and took her medication on time.

Except for fully accepting treatment.

Everyone understood that she was leaving herself an escape route... a path towards the end.

"Xiaopu, you could actually completely recover and then wait for Pei Yuanze to come back. If your body heals, you’ll have more time to wait for him," Mo Jun said to her.

Xia Pu teased her adorable daughter and smiled, "I understand what you mean, but I feel quite good like this. After all, I don’t have the courage to leave this world, yet I very much want to leave it..."

Mo Jun suddenly felt a bit sad.

Xia Pu couldn’t bear to leave her daughter and family, which is why she doesn’t want to leave this world. But without Pei Yuanze, she doesn’t wish to stay. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

She doesn’t want to recover, simply handing her fate over to destiny...

"What if Pei Yuanze takes many years to return?"

"Then I’ll wait many years. I’ll strive to live and strive to wait for him." Xia Pu answered resolutely.

Mo Jun felt upset, "He can’t love you. Is it worth waiting for him like this?"

Xia Pu instead laughed joyfully, "It’s absolutely worth it. It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t love me; I love him, and that’s enough. He can’t love anyone; he can’t love himself, so I’ll love on his behalf. Sometimes I think maybe this is my mission to love him, but I accept it willingly."

Mo Jun smiled and nodded, "I understand you."

Because if it were Hao Yansen in such a situation, she would also persist like Xia Pu.

True love is like this, not caring about the cost or return, and enduring the test of time.

There’s another person as steadfast as Xia Pu, Mou Xiao.

Mou Xiao left for a while; during that time, Yun Shaojun hadn’t recovered his eyesight. When he returned, Yun Shaojun had already left.

Mo Jun asked him where he had gone; he said he dealt with some internal family matters. Now he has plenty of time to do whatever he wants.

Mou Xiao rarely explained so much, perhaps because she was Yun Shaojun’s daughter, prompting him to say more.

Mo Jun also understood his intention—he must have settled many issues and wanted to use more time to accompany Yun Shaojun. Unfortunately, he returned, but Yun Shaojun left.

Knowing Yun Shaojun left willingly, Mou Xiao didn’t go after her but chose to wait for her at the Hao Family.
