"In the end, you were still like the wind, stirring up countless ripples in my heart before following the clouds to a distant place."
On the eve of the college entrance exams, Ning Wanxing accidentally learned that her parents had divorced long ago and started new families. She ran away from home and broke down in tears. Her older brother, who was at school, received her call and panicked, nearly losing his head. After searching for a long time, he finally found her lonely figure on a park bench.
"Brother... We don't have a home anymore..."
All the feelings I'd been suppressing for so long crumbled the moment I saw him.
I clung to him, tears streaming down my face. It was as if all the hurt and grievances I'd endured over the past few days had finally found an outlet.
He patiently comforted me, patting my back again and again as he let my tears soak his clothes.
In my eighteen years, I'd never been so heartbroken.
One weekend, I slept in for once. When I opened my eyes, it was already eight o'clock.
I opened my bedroom door. The house was quiet, and someone was sitting on the sofa with his back to me. "Brother, you're back."
At the sound of my voice, "my brother" turned around and looked me over curiously.
The moment he turned around, I was completely dumbstruck...
"Ah!!!" My scream rang through the room. I instinctively clutched my collar and stumbled backward. "Y-you! Who are you? What are you doing in my house?!"
The front door unlocked, and Ning Yuchen walked in. His eyes fell on my frightened face.
Completely bewildered, I looked from Ning Yuchen to the person on the sofa. "Brother? You... him..."
Ning Yuchen realized there had been a misunderstanding. "Oh, this is my classmate. Mom said she wanted to find you a tutor, so I asked him to come."
The man stood up and gave me a slight nod. "Hello, I'm Song Jixiang."
