Chapter 521: Chapter 521: The Right Fate Arrives

Tang Heping seemed to sense her silence, often teasing her with a couple of jokes to make her laugh.

Gradually, Yun Xizi could no longer maintain her composure around him, and their relationship steadily improved.

But at that time, it seemed no one dared to take a step further.

No one brought up a confession of love.

The two maintained a tacit understanding of a delicate relationship.

As college entrance exams loomed, Tang Heping suddenly invited Yun Xizi to the amusement park and confessed his love.

He told Yun Xizi that he wanted to major in medicine and, with his grades, he would be studying abroad.

Therefore, he wanted to fulfill a wish before leaving the country.

He knew the timing wasn’t great.

But he was afraid that missing the chance would be a lifelong regret.

The teenage years are so fleeting.

He wanted to act on impulse.

But...

Yun Xizi did not agree.

The day before, her mother, accompanying a client, came home completely drunk, vomiting miserably, and, grasping Yun Xizi, cried, hoping she wouldn’t end up as wretched as her mother, urging her to stand up for herself.

Moreover, she had grown up watching her father’s infidelity and her parents’ tumultuous arguments over a divorce that lasted more than three years.

Yun Xizi didn’t dare and couldn’t agree to Tang Heping’s confession.

...

Times had changed.

Yun Xizi never expected to run into Tang Heping here.

Even less did she expect that Tang Heping would speak openly about once pursuing her.

"It’s been a while, old classmate. I’m about to get off work, do you have time for dinner?" Just as Yun Xizi was reminiscing, Tang Heping looked at her and suddenly said.

Yun Xizi was startled, "Ah?" she nervously said, "Maybe tomorrow? It’s getting late today..."

"No time like the present," Tang Heping laughed, "I’m also afraid you’ll run off later and won’t agree to see me."

Yun Xizi, feeling awkward: "How could I..."

Seeing this, Nana, with a gleam of mischief in her eyes, quickly said, "Do it today, it’s not late! Hurry up and go, don’t worry about me, there are plenty of nurses here!"

She was quite excited, and if she hadn’t been immobilized, she would have personally ushered Tang Heping and Yun Xizi out.

However...

Even so, Yun Xizi still followed Tang Heping out of the office with reserve, at Nana’s insistence.

Tang Heping’s appearance hadn’t changed much from what she remembered; if anything, he seemed more mature and gentle.

Once outside, he smiled at Yun Xizi, "Wait here for me, I’m going to change my clothes. Shall we go have your favorite Sichuan cuisine?"

Yun Xizi paused, "Okay..."

"Two minutes."

With that, Tang Heping headed toward his office.

Yun Xizi paused again.

Her favorite had always been Sichuan cuisine, and after getting to know Tang Heping, he would take her to the Sichuan restaurant outside school whenever he had the chance.

And Tang Heping had once told Yun Xizi that he would never keep her waiting, no more than two minutes...

Yun Xizi couldn’t help but recall what Jiangli had said to her before.

Her destined relationship was nearing...

Could this be what it meant?

...

It was after nine o’clock.

Jiangli was still watching videos in her room.

"Ancestor..." Xia Xin peeked in at this moment, cracking open the door, "I knew you hadn’t slept yet as soon as I heard the noise."

Without lifting her head, Jiangli asked, "What is it?"

Xia Xin giggled and stepped inside, "Ancestor, haven’t you forgotten? We haven’t drawn the lot in the forum today."

At these words, Jiangli paused her finger on the smartphone and looked up, "Oh right, I forgot about that."

She shut off the video app and handed the smartphone to Xia Xin, "You draw the lot. Finish up and get some rest."
