Zhou Ping rushes to apologize to Mo Yaoyao after a two-week absence, admitting he misunderstood advice to give her space. Mo Yaoyao tearfully confesses she thought he was angry, revealing her sadness over his perceived rejection.

Zhou Ping did not immediately realize the little girl was crying. Once he did, panic set in, and he began to apologize profusely. “I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong. Please don’t cry. I really don’t know what to do when you cry like this. It’s alright now, don’t cry, okay? Please, stop crying.”He offered her tissues to wipe away her tears, attempting to comfort her.The little girl cried and shook her head. “It has nothing to do with you, brother. It’s me… it’s all me…”“Why are you taking the blame for my mistake? Stop crying, will you?” he coaxed gently. “The cafeteria still sells milk tea at this time. Come on, I’ll take you to buy some milk tea. Drinking milk tea always makes you happy. You really like it, don’t you?”“Mhm,” the little girl replied in a muffled voice. She began wiping her own tears and ceased her crying.“Let’s go.” Zhou Ping removed the light backpack from the little girl, carried it for her, and then led her by hand toward the cafeteria.Oddly, while lining up for milk tea, Zhou Ping noticed that everyone else seemed to be in pairs.Dressed casually for a gathering, Zhou Ping did not stand out among the university students in line.Even though there were couples ahead of and behind him, Zhou Ping paid them no mind. He continued to queue for the milk tea, asking the little girl, “What did you have for dinner tonight?”“A rice dish.”“What kind of rice dish?”“Pepper and shredded pork.”“You didn’t eat all the peppers, did you?”“I only ate a little bit, but I ate all the shredded pork.”“Right, you should eat fewer spicy foods. They can cause your tonsils to become inflamed.”“Mhm.”“Is one cup of milk tea enough, or do you want something else to eat?”“Just the milk tea is enough, I’m not eating anything else. Are you eating anything, brother?”“No, I already had something with a client before I attended the gathering. I didn’t even stay long in the club’s private room before coming straight here. I’m not hungry at all.”After purchasing the milk tea, Zhou Ping escorted Mo Yaoyao back to her dormitory building.He ruffled the little girl’s hair and said, “Forget about it; just do whatever you want from now on.” He no longer demanded much, but severing contact completely, as before, was simply not an option.“That’ll do, I guess.”“Brother…” Mo Yaoyao’s eyes welled up with tears.“Alright, let’s not say anything more. Go on in.”“Okay…” Mo Yaoyao could only go inside. She felt much better, though not entirely relieved; she was still quite distressed.She truly considered the Zhou family as her own, never seeing herself as an outsider. She knew the Zhou family members genuinely cared for her—how could she possibly hurt them? She was just… terribly afraid, afraid of losing them… she dared not consider herself a part of that family…

On the way back, Zhou Ping seriously contemplated the male classmate’s inexplicable actions, racking his brains for a considerable time, yet still unable to fathom why the student had been so irritable. Ultimately, he simply resolved to dismiss the matter from his mind and cease overthinking it. He acknowledged that he himself had acted rather unreasonably that evening.*Zhou Ping and Mo Yaoyao had reached an understanding, and none of the other Zhou family members were aware of what had transpired. Both agreed not to mention the incident to the rest of the family, allowing the matter to fade.In the blink of an eye, Mo Yaoyao’s winter vacation commenced.On the third day of her winter break, she received an invitation from her roommate to visit the science museum, which coincidentally coincided with a technology exhibition.Despite the biting cold, as she was leaving, Zhou Ping ensured she was bundled up tightly, leaving only her eyes exposed. She wore a down jacket, fur boots, gloves, a scarf, and a hat; even though the frigid wind whistled around her, Mo Yaoyao felt remarkably warm.
