Additionally, during this period, there was one more thing that brought Zhan Se particular relief.
It happened on New Year's Day, when Tang Yu called her with good news.
Just a few days earlier, while she was accompanying Zhang Zhongkai for his rehabilitation therapy, he had finally, albeit unclearly, confessed his feelings to her. He asked her if she could stay to take care of him in the days to come.
Over the phone, Tang Yu was overjoyed, her voice bubbling with excitement of a first love, like a young girl who had never grown up. At least three syllables of each sentence she spoke to Zhan Se were laced with crisp laughter.
At the same time, she shared with Zhan Se many of her wishes...
She would find Sang Er and tell her that mommy was free now and she could give her a complete home in the future.
Zhang Zhongkai would be able to stand up and walk with her down the shaded paths of Central Politics University.
