Only after Gu MingYue had left the house and walked out of the housing area did Shen Rong come back to his senses, realizing all too late that he had forgotten to ask where she was going, and whether she needed a ride.

Many years later, he would always think back about this fateful day.

If only he had noticed her unusually joyous smile as she said her goodbyes, then perhaps everything wouldve been different.

But at that time, he was at the age where he did not understand his true feelings and refused to admit that he was, in fact, in love with her

The man let out a chuckle mockingly, before tasting the bitter taste that had never left his mouth ever since Gu MingYue disappeared from his life.

He was doomed to live many years in regret as he wallowed in sorrow.

Gu MingYue walked along the lonely street as she hesitated between staying or leaving this city behind to start a new life somewhere.

The streets were filled with continuous traffic and bustling crowds, it was very noisy.

The August sun was extremely hot, and before long, Gu MingYue felt sick as her head went dizzy and her eyes began to go blurry.

Gu MingYue, with her lowered cap somewhat covering her face, continued walking in a daze until she accidentally bumped into an oncoming pedestrian. Ah, Im sorry She exclaimed in surprise as she stumbled backward, her cap falling off her head to reveal her astonishingly beautiful face.

Thankfully, the person in front of her reacted in time and held her steady.

Its you?!

Its you.

Both of them exclaimed at the same time, obviously recognizing each other.

Ever since their first meeting on the train a year ago, Song ZhenYi had never expected to meet this young lady again, and never would he had imagined that the same young lady would remember him, as they had only met each other once.

And compared to the slight glimpse he had of her face previously, which was hidden under her hood back then, this was the first time Song ZhenYi had come into contact with Gu MingYues beauty without any sort of cover.

And though, beauty had never been a necessity for him, he could not help but pause at her striking beauty.

This young lady is too beautiful! He gasped silently within his heart.

Though beauty had been highly sought since ancient times, many young beauties had also lost their lives because of it. Being too beautiful had never been a good thing in any civilization.

Song ZhenYi picked up her fallen hat and blew away the dust before carefully placing the hat on Gu MingYues head properly, Be more careful next time. He smiled warmly.

How is her family not worried about letting such a gorgeous young lady go outside alone!

Just as he remembered her, Gu MingYue recognized the man instantly as soon as she saw his dashing and charming face.

She could not sense any ulterior motives or bad intentions from his warm smile, as if he was a gentle and good person by nature. Though that much was expected, as he HAD been the only stranger who had expressed concern for her on the train

I should really thank him sincerely She thought, but just when she was about voice out her words, her eyes darkened and her body fell towards the man before she lost her consciousness completely.

Song ZhenYi knew that something was wrong with Gu MingYue and caught her falling body steadily. Looking down into her pale and sweaty face, he quickly walked towards a white high-rise building nearby while carrying her body firmly with his strong arms.

When Gu MingYue finally woke up, she realized that she was in a hospital ward, and there was an infusion tube on the back of her hand.

Youre awake. A somewhat familiar deep voice sounded nearby, and Gu MingYue raised her eyes in the direction of the voice, only to see Song ZhenYi in a white lab coat. His eyes showed concern, but there was obvious anger within his eyes.

Thank you. Gu MingYue answered softly, as she did not know what else to say.

Do you know that youre pregnant? Song ZhenYi asked directly. She was clearly underaged, and the fact that she was pregnant surprised him.

Gu MingYue stayed silent for a while, before deciding to tell the truth, Yes, I do.

Does your family knows about this? Song ZhenYi continued.

But this time, Gu MingYue decided to keep her silence, and Song ZhenYi understood her unspoken words as he observed her expression. He thought of their first meeting and remembered that he had wondered if she was secretly visiting her boyfriend in college. If that was the case, then she mustve gotten pregnant because of improper contraceptive measures.

Well, I think its better for you to inform your family about this, after all, this is a major event and your elders should have the right to know about this. Song ZhenYi sighed softly before suggesting to the lady lying on the bed.

As soon as Gu MingYue heard that he wanted her to contact her family, her expression got anxious immediately. Her plans to escape were going on really well, but she had not expected her body to become so weak because of the pregnancy.

To think that she had fainted from heatstroke just from being exposed to the sun for too long!

Gu MingYue had left home with only her ID, mobile phone, bank card, and a sturdy backpack. She had instantly visited a bank and withdrew her money from an ATM, before bumping into Song ZhenYi as she was deciding her future whereabouts.

She glanced at the backpack on her bedside table, sighing in relief because the man had not touched her belongs as the backpacks zipper was left untouched.

I cannot go back. Gu MingYue started slowly, I wish to give birth to this child, please leave me be.

The young lady sat up on the bed and reached out for her backpack, intending to leave this place.

You ran away from home? Song ZhenYi exclaimed in shock.

Yes, theres no place for me in that house anymore, so I have decided to run away and live alone. Gu MingYue casually pulled out the infusion tube from the back of her hand, and just as she was about to stand up, she was pressed back onto the bed by the man.

Nonsense! Song ZhenYi felt as if he could not understand what young ladies nowadays were thinking. How could an underaged lady run away from home just to give birth to a baby! Had she considered what she would do for a living? Or how she would be capable of bringing up a child when she, herself, was still a child?!

Please give me your family members mobile number.

I refuse! Gu MingYue felt as if she had not read the almanac before leaving her house1, otherwise, nothing else could explain how she managed to provoke such an insistent and stubborn man.

Trust me, this wouldnt work out. I genuinely wish to help you, but you need to inform your family about this, then make a decision together with them. Song ZhenYi was convinced that she was merely stubborn and naive, which was why he wanted to persuade her, just to wake her up to reality.

Look. Gu MingYue cleared her throat before continuing, Do you have any idea of my situation? Do you understand what was happening in my life? If you really wish to help me, you should take into account my wishes.

You know nothing about my family members nor what was going on in my life. Your so-called help and concern will only serve the purpose of backfiring on me and destroying my future.

Her face remained calm and collected as she spoke to the man in front of her. She did not look like a person who would act irrationally on a whim, and she looked as if she clearly understood what she was doing.

She broke free from the hand on her shoulder and reached into her backpack before pulling out a few stacks of cash, not worrying about exposing her money to a stranger at all.

Look, Im well prepared for everything, and this money is enough for me to live on for a long time. Gu MingYue looked at his face of disbelief, before continuing, Im more capable than you thought, and I can definitely support myself on my own.

She was an expert at calligraphy and painting, and she was more than qualified to be an extracurricular tutor in the future.

Im very grateful for your kindness and concerns, but She paused slightly, I do not need unnecessary help, which would only cause me more pain than assistance.

Gu MingYues words were so reasonable that Song ZhenYi was left speechless.

Song ZhenYi had never been a pedantic person, and he was truly ashamed of himself. In fact, he had put himself into Gu MingYues shoes and was genuinely concerned for her, otherwise, he would not have tried so hard to convince her and spoke so rashly.

Still, Im not able to let you walk away alone. Song ZhenYi said softly, Please let me know how I can help you.

No matter how calm and rational this lady was, she was still an underaged child who had never faced the dark side of society.

Gu MingYue observed the man in front of her carefully for a long while, before finally determining that his intentions were pure and kind, without any slightest evil thoughts.

To think that such a person existed in this world Gu MingYue trusted her own judgment, and she decided to bet everything she had on this gamble.

*A wild gentle doctor appears*!
