"My heavy heart
Goes around again
Above the shaking swing
The heavy night stops me
And I can see you

I can do nothing else but lean on your shadow
I see us in my empty glass
When the dawn shines on you, I’ll find my love
But I’m the only one curious about your dream
My heavy heart is
Too much for you"

A year had silently tiptoed away since the incident that had cast shadows over the University. But a mysterious air enveloped the connection between Wang Fei's best friend and Zhi Lian, veiling their story from Wang Fei's understanding. Amidst this narrative haze, a pivotal night at a restaurant unraveled emotions that couldn't be contained. Shuyi, overwhelmed, found herself on the doorstep of Wang Fei's hospital, a place that had become his second home due to the demanding life of a dedicated doctor. Most evenings were spent within the sterile walls of the medical facility, leaving little room for respite. That specific night, after a tear-soaked cab ride, she emerged in front of the imposing hospital facade.Inside, the receptionist's curious gaze met Shuyi's determined expression. "I want to meet Dr. Wang immediately," she declared.

"Wait a minute, ma'am," the receptionist responded, scrutinizing Wang Fei's schedule.

"Dr. Wang is in the operation theatre. You'll have to wait here for an hour."

With a sigh, Shuyi sank into a chair, disappointment etched across her features. An hour, she mused, a seemingly interminable stretch of time spent in uneasy anticipation. In the hushed ambiance of the waiting area, Shuyi grappled with her emotions, the seconds ticking away like a suspenseful novel reaching its climax. As the clock hands completed their cyclical dance, Wang Fei emerged from the operation theatre, transitioning seamlessly from the world of surgery to that of emotional intricacies. He concluded the formalities within the patient's family , he swiftly descended to meet Shuyi, who awaited him with bated breath."A-Shuyi, what happened? The receptionist mentioned you've been waiting," Wang Fei inquired, his eyes reflecting genuine concern.

"Fei Gege... I want to end my life!" Shuyi confessed, her voice laden with the weight of her emotions.

Wang Yibo's eyes nearly popped out as he responded, "What!! Why are you saying such things, Shuyi? What happened to you? Were you crying? I've never seen you so upset before. Is it because of Zhi Lian?"

Shuyi shot back, "How do you know that?"

Fei, with a sly grin, chimed in, "Just guessed, but that means I'm right!"

Shuyi, cutting to the chase, asked, "Do you still have work left?"

Fei shook his head, "Nope, I'm almost done for today. Wait here for a minute, let me grab my bag. Then, we can go somewhere and listen to your story."
