Ou Cong's trip to the Southwest is cut short when Xia Chuyi informs him that Jiang Shuqin has unexpectedly returned to the Capital City. Xia Chuyi and her mother lament Ou Cong's bad luck with Jiang Shuqin, especially with the potential rival He Jun in the picture. Meanwhile, Xia Chuyi's son, Huo Shiwu, comforts her and vows to help his uncle.

Ou Cong's phone call was rushed.

So, in the end, Xia Chuyi didn't fully tell Ou Cong about He Jun.

Regarding his second brother's impatient temper, Xia Chuyi really had no solution.

Forget it, she'll tell him when he comes back.

After all, even if she tells him ahead of time, it wouldn't help.

No matter what reaction Ou Cong would have knowing about He Jun's existence,

Ultimately, Ou Cong could only respond after returning to the Capital City.

Of course, although she didn't manage to inform Ou Cong about this, she did have the chance to tell her family.

"Chuyi, are you saying that the person helping Zhicheng back to Beijing likes Shuqin?" Upon hearing this news, Mrs. Ou was slightly surprised.

However, after thinking it over, someone liking a child as excellent as Shuqin was normal.

Finally, Mrs. Ou sighed, saying, "Your second brother is of such a character, it's only a matter of time before someone competes with him for Shuqin… we better not meddle, whether he can marry her is up to him to realize."

It's a new society now, and parents can hardly interfere in matters of romance.

Especially since there are inherent conflicts between the children.

If parents interfere, the conflicts might deepen.

Moreover, since the problem has arisen, only the children can resolve it themselves.

Mrs. Ou's attitude was also the attitude of the other family members.

Thus, aside from visiting Song Zhicheng, none of the family approached the Jiang Family or Jiang Shuqin to inquire or persuade.

Two days passed, and Ou Cong finally returned.

Upon arriving in Beijing, after hitting home, Ou Cong didn't ask about recent events in the Capital City — no one mentioned anything either.

Then, Ou Cong hurriedly rushed to find Jiang Shuqin.

This time, no one in the family stopped him.

After all, whether he could win over his bride depended on his performance upon returning.

Coincidentally, when Ou Cong went to find Jiang Shuqin, he met He Jun at Jiang Shuqin's house entrance, talking to Jiang Shuqin.

It turned out, He Jun was there to say goodbye to Jiang Shuqin as he had to return to the Southwest to complete his departure procedures.

At this moment, He Junzheng warmly said to Jiang Shuqin, "Shuqin, I will explain your situation clearly to the school there."

He Jun was referring to explaining clearly about Jiang Shuqin originally intending to stay and teach, but now no longer planning to return.

Though people like them who go to teach have the freedom to decide on staying or leaving at any time,

But doing so can easily disrupt local teaching arrangements.

So, those planning to leave typically notify the school and complete departure procedures, like He Jun.

Hearing He Jun's words, Jiang Shuqin naturally said, "Thank you, He Jun."

"Shuqin, no need to be so polite," He Jun shook his head immediately, "it's just a small effort."

Regarding He Jun's words, Jiang Shuqin smiled slightly and said, "Though it's a small effort, you were still thoughtful to come and inform me."

Jiang Shuqin didn't think much of He Jun coming to bid farewell and saw it as him leaving the Capital City and mentioning the matter in passing.

Hearing Jiang Shuqin's words, He Jun also smiled and said, "I truly didn't do anything, Shuqin..."

"No, He Jun, you..."

Just as the two were exchanging pleasantries, Ou Cong suddenly shouted, "Shuqin!"
