"Do you know who I am?" Yang Junyi sighed.
"I don’t care who you are, just don’t leave tonight!" Yang Wanyin said sorrowfully, "You must stay with , you can have whatever you want... He said I don’t understand the charm of a woman, that I can’t join him in bed. I’ll now randomly choose a man and sleep with him. Tell , do I possess the charm of a woman?"
Yang Junyi pried her hand from his waist, but she clung to him again, "Tell , tell , do I have the allure of a woman?"
He was so entangled by her that it was hopeless, looking at her face which had beco unrecognizable. Her face was pretty and now tinted with a flush, incredibly cute, "How can you not have the allure of a woman? You do... It’s just that he doesn’t appreciate you..."
"Do you appreciate ?" Yang Wanyin was completely drunk, babbling regardless of who was before her, "Do you appreciate ? I saved my first ti for my wedding night, was I wrong?"
"Yes, you are a strong and good girl!" Yang Junyi agreed with her, "And a very fine girl indeed. There aren’t many girls like you nowadays..."
"Then why does he still disdain ?" Yang Wanyin defiantly retorted, "It must be the won who sleep around indiscriminately who are popular..."
Yang Junyi was at a loss for words, trying to pull her hand away, but she clung even tighter.
He had no choice but to let her vent her emotions.
After a while, Yang Wanyin began to cry, "Wanlin, sister, why don’t you want either... We promised to get married together, you always said Deng Tanghen was not a good person. I didn’t believe you before, but now it really seems to be the case, yet you are no longer here... Wanlin, I miss you, sister, I won’t marry anyone now, you are not here anymore..."
With the ntion of Yang Wanlin, Yang Junyi’s heart also turned lancholic. This beautiful, sweet, happy young girl had left the world so unexpectedly.
He was a doctor and had seen many young lives fade, but still, he felt lancholic, still he felt sad, still he felt sorrowful.
He sat on the sofa while Yang Wanyin cried in his arms, alternately laughing, crying, talking, and gesturing animatedly, "Wanlin, co back, whatever you ask of I’ll do... Do you know? Every ti I see Doctor Yang’s eyes, I can’t help but think of you..."
Yang Junyi sorrowfully closed his eyes, for in his eyes were the corneas of Yang Wanlin, and together they saw the world, beautiful or not, together they were.
When Yang Wanyin had tired herself out in his arms, she gradually fell asleep.
Yang Junyi, having drunk a bit, also felt drowsy and eventually fell asleep on the sofa as well.
The next morning.
Suddenly, a loud "bang" sounded as the door was flung open, and in stord Yang’s mother, followed by Yang’s father and Yang Junyi’s father as well.
This situation of being caught red-handed woke both Yang Junyi and Yang Wanyin up.
"Yang Junyi, how could you do this?" Yang’s mother hadn’t expected that the two of them would actually spend a night in a hotel.
In fact, she hadn’t decided yet if she should follow the heavenly letter’s suggestion to let Yang Wanyin be with Yang Junyi, when she heard that they stayed together in a hotel—and indeed they had...
Yang Junyi imdiately explained: "Auntie, Miss Yang and I didn’t do anything..."
"Just now you were holding each other, and you say nothing happened?" Yang’s mother angrily countered, "Last night Wanyin didn’t co ho, she was with you in the hotel..."
"Mom, I drank too much last night!" Yang Wanyin couldn’t bear to see Yang Junyi being scolded by her mother, quickly explaining, "Don’t bla Doctor Yang, it wasn’t his fault..."
"What do you know?" Yang’s mother glared at her, "For a girl, reputation is most important. You stayed with him for a night, even if nothing really happened, do you think others will believe that?"
"Mom..." Yang Wanyin truly regretted having drunk too much the previous night.
"And you, Yang Junyi..." Mother Yang pointed at him, "You are just a sanctimonious hypocrite, making my younger daughter fall for you, and then she is gone, and now you’re bewitching my elder daughter, making her speak for you. What explanation can you give? If you were really a good person, why would you stay with Wanyin in a hotel?"
Yang Junyi did not attempt to explain any further. With Yang Wanlin’s situation, once Mother Yang decided he was at fault, he was wrong, and since her daughter was no longer there, hearing a few more accusations from her was sothing he did not retaliate against!
Father Yang could not stand idly by any longer, he stepped forward: "Why are you accusing my son like this? If it really cos to it, our Yang Family will marry your daughter!"
"What? Just marry because you say so?" Mother Yang huffed.
"Then what? My son has said they are innocent, yet you still don’t believe! If you don’t believe, what can be done? Since they spent a night together, let’s just get them married!" Father Yang imdiately said.
"No way!" It was Wanyin who spoke, "I know Doctor Yang is a good person, he didn’t take advantage of . It was who asked him to stay with in the hotel, I drank too much last night. Mom, Dad, Uncle Yang, there’s nothing between and Doctor Yang, please stop talking about it!"
"How can that be!" Mother Yang was upset, "You are a girl, what about your innocence?"
"I’ve already said I am innocent!" Wanyin was almost like she was reciting a tongue-twister, talking for so long, and yet her mom was still not letting it go!
Mother Yang grabbed Wanyin’s hand: "Let’s go now!"
She said to Yang Junyi: "This is not over, you just wait!"
As Wanyin walked out, she apologized to Yang Junyi: "I’m sorry, Doctor Yang..."
After the three mbers of the Yang Family had left, only Yang Junyi and his father remained in the hotel room.
"Son, are you okay?" Father Yang looked at him, "Is it this family’s daughter who donated corneas to you? But, why is her mother so unreasonable?"
"Their family has lost their daughter, it’s already a heart-breaking thing. It’s alright for the aunt to scold a bit." Yang Junyi was more forgiving, being a doctor, he understood the value of life better than others.
Father Yang sighed, "What should we do then? Really marry her? I know you’re a good person, that girl must have drunk too much, and you kindly brought her to the hotel, but what happened? Her parents still misjudged you as a bad person."
Yang Junyi did not speak, he lit a cigarette, clearly annoyed by the misunderstanding, but he still needed to first calm the emotions of the Yang family.
Speaking of marrying Wanyin, Yang Junyi suddenly rembered that he had arranged a eting with Tian Xin at the Civil Affairs Bureau to get divorced that morning, he checked his watch, which showed that he was already late after the commotion with the Yang family.
Yang Junyi worried that he still had alcohol in his system, he didn’t drive but instead took a taxi to the Civil Affairs Bureau.
He called Tian Xin while in the taxi, but her phone was not answered, and when he arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, he did not see Tian Xin there.
...
Early in the morning, accompanied by Tang Baijin, Tian Xin arrived at the Civil Affairs Bureau, but did not see Yang Junyi there. Just as she was about to wait, a call ca from ho, Mother Tian said, "Xinxin, your brother is leaving, can you co back and persuade him?"
Thus, Tian Xin didn’t wait for Yang Junyi, and hurried back ho.
At the Tian Family, Tian Xin saw Song Xuyao, he was very thin and silent. Clearly, he was still not out of the trauma concerning Song Chenxi, and nobody knew when he would co out of it, not even himself!
Mother Tian was holding Song Xuyao’s hand all the while: "Don’t leave, okay? Whatever kind of life it is, you can always start over, Xuyao, you’re only thirty-two, still very young..."
Song Xuyao remained indifferent to it all, resolute in his decision to leave ho.
