Lu Zhilan is a tennis prodigy and Lu Xia's older cousin. Zhilan was expected to become a professional athlete until a career threatening injury. With no other choice, she's forced to go to Germany for surgery and rehabilitation. She's been there for...
"Doctor, may I make a request?" Zhilan asked after her checkup.
He looked up from his clipboard. "What kind of request?"
"I was wondering if you would allow Siyang and I to go out into the city again."
He blinked. "Really?"
She glanced all around the room. "Is that strange?"
The doctor laughed. "No, not at all. It was just unexpected."
"Oh."
"You seem to have grown rather attached to Siyang. I recall you didn't really want much to do with him."
She looked down at her hands. "That was in the beginning. I changed my mind when I got to know him."
He smiled at her and set aside his clipboard. "He told you he's leaving. That's why you want to go out again, right?"
"He's not gone yet."
Doctor Martin nodded. "All right. We'll arrange it for this Saturday."
"Thank you."
He left her room and Zhilan exhaled deeply.
At least he agreed to it.

"What?" Siyang blinked in surprise.
"We're going back to the city on Saturday." Zhilan stated nonchalantly.
He couldn't quite process her words. "Why?"
"Because."
"Because what?"
She sighed exasperated. "When we went last time, it was nice to be let outside. I think it would be good for us to go back one last time before you leave."
Siyang let out a chuckle. "We'll probably be walking around aimlessly if you follow me this time."
"Then, that's what we'll do."

Saturday arrived in the blink of an eye. Zhilan dressed in a white t-shirt with overall shorts. She walked out her door and Siyang was standing nearby. He looked great with his beige jacket, slacks, and white shirt.
