Next morning at Su's residence.

Ye Nian was having breakfast with her family at the table. The environment around was cheerful here. With Ye Shing and Qin Mei on one side, Gu Yan and Su Xi on another, and as always, Ye Shan talking and talking continuously.

"You know mom, that person actually called me an idiot because I just asked him to not take a bath for a few days! I Was saying that because of his injury..." Qin Mei described her work at the hospital as an intern and the family was also hearing and helping her out.

With the passing of time, Qin Mei adjusted well in the family. She started interacting with the family a lot more, losing out all her fears of being unknown.

Su Xi patted her back and said, "Do not worry, in the time of work, we face many types of people. Maybe he was too eager to have baths."

"Yeah.. but he was still fine in nature, I have witnessed some other patients who are just… horrible! they think we are there to not help them but to take their life. Like seriously?"

But Ye Nian's face was still down. Her eyes were on the food she was chewing and at that point, Gu Yan coughed to gain her attention. "Ye Nian.."

"Yes, dad?" Ye Nian immediately lifted her eyes and jolted back when she heard her name being called.

"What happened, dear? You seem lost somewhere. Is everything alright at the university?" Gu Yan politely asked. But her unusual behavior didn't miss his eyes. He knew his children well, just by their expressions and body language.

Ye Nian faced her father with a smile and answered, "Everything is alright. I was just.. thinking about the exams that are going to come soon. Anyways, did you all like the gifts that I bought for you all?"

"Obviously! How can I not like the gift that my sister-in-law has given me for the very first time?" Qin Mei was surprised to see the sudden change in Ye Nian. She was becoming more responsible, moreover, bringing something for the family from her first pay was heart-touching.

"I'm glad you liked it." Everyone praised the gifts she bought.. except for one person. 'Maybe he hasn't even opened it up. It must be lying in his car only.'

The disappointment was not a clear word to describe. She has kept expectations from her choice of gift, to see him happy but everything that happened was all against.

"I will be leaving for university. See you all in the evening." Ye Nian put her cutlery down and made her way out of her house when everything behind her was puzzled by her sudden departure.

Su Xi turned to Gu Yan, "There is still time for her university classes to start. Why is she leaving so early?"

"C'mon wife, she isn't the four years old child anymore. She is grown up and gives her space. I have that much trust in my daughter that she will seek her life problems." Gu Yan's tied trust was quite reliving for Su Xi.

But still, without any doubts, she was feeling worried for her daughter. "I hope you are doing okay, Ye Nian.."

…

This time, Ye Nian didn't take any of her cars but the local transport to reach her place. She just wished to be together with some people, being alone is making her overthink

But when she reached her destination, what came in her view was shocking. Early in the morning, Shi Yu was standing outside his car and his clothes.. they weren't even close to the formal clothes that he usually wears.s

'Why does he look like this? His eyes also look sleepy.' She figured him out from head to toe to find that not only his clothes but his entire face and look were messed up.

'But what is he even doing at my university?' Ye Nian was ready to walk off from the place, ignoring his presence but when she tried to, a sound was heard.

"Ye Nian! Can we please talk?" She halted in her steps. Turning straight, she looked at his face from the corner of her eyes, she looked at his face from which it was evident that he didn't get any good sleep the entire night.

She wasn't any better. He rejected her so rudely which not only broke her little heart but she was somehow battling with her own emotions.

"There is nothing to talk about. You told me what you felt… and I will not be an obstacle in your life."

"That is not what I wish to talk about. Ye Nian, just give me five minutes of yours! I'm pretty much sure those five minutes be enough for me to.. just express." He is brutally honest.

The sincerity in his words did gain her attention when Ye Nian turned around. "What?"

Stepping closer to her, Shi Yu held her hands into his, with his eyes deeply intoxicated into hers. "I know wherever I said tomorrow.. something has hurt you very badly."

"I... I just said that you because you are too young for me. I was once your teacher and this relationship.. will surely be confusing. But yesterday, I did see those emotions."

"I went through emotions which were totally foreign to me in the past twenty-four years. I know it hurts to see your best friend go but… even when the mains turned left me, I felt nothing. I was simply angry because he trusted someone else except me. But with you .. it is different."

Shi Yu stopped in the middle to look at her face, where the shock was written. She was staring at him with her wide eyes which not only made her feel strange but the sudden confession did take her hat surprise.

"Different..? How?"
