On the day Zhu Erxia confesses to Ji Yingjia, Ji Yingru falls off the stage and is hospitalized with a broken bone.
Ji Yingjia is gentle with everyone, but merciless toward her.
After she confesses, Ji Yingjia chooses to go abroad. Before leaving, he tells her in the manner of an elder, "I personally taught you for seven years. We were teacher and friend alike. Today, I'll teach you one last thing: forget me and start living again."
He rejected her, then even asked her to go visit his younger brother in the hospital.
Although Zhu Erxia and Ji Yingru had been at each other's throats since childhood, she still peeled a rotten banana for him at his bedside.
Apparently, an injured leg can ruin your sense of taste too. He glared furiously at her while eating the whole banana.
Zhu Erxia regretted coming to see him.

Later, she had another reason to regret, one that happened on a rainy night.
That day, Ji Yingru sat in his car, adjusting his shirt cuffs again and again. His gaze passed over Zhu Erxia in the rain and the little girl holding her hand.
Zhu Erxia had spotted him long ago. She asked the little girl, "That man is sharp-tongued and full of himself, but he's handsome. How about having him as your dad?"
The little girl stared blankly at the man in the black car.
In the end, Ji Yingru held an umbrella over them and drew them beneath it, standing against the wind to shield them from the rain.
His long fingers shifted slightly, tilting the umbrella toward them.
The man's charming eyes met Zhu Erxia's astonished gaze. He bent close, his tone as casually insouciant as ever. "I don't care who the child's father is. It's enough that you're her mother. Marry me, Zhu Erxia."
