Sang Yan searched every place where Wen Yifan might have gone, but there was no sign of her. Wen Yifan was used to hiding her emotions, and her world was painfully small, as if her entire life had been trapped. Zhong Siqiao told Sang Yan that Wen Yifan had called her to say she was safe. The more he learned, the more heartbroken he felt.

At this point, Sang Yan only hoped that Wen Yifan had left just to get rid of him. Over the past six years, she had silently endured so much on her own, and now, by choosing to leave, she was simply continuing to bear everything alone. Wen Yifan moved into a new place with her luggage.

The cramped environment reminded her of the first time she arrived at Che Yanqin’s house—back then, the storage room was packed with stuff, and she had to clear out a space for herself to sleep. Che Xingde had moved into Che Yanqin’s house. The first time he met Wen Yifan, his expression was full of ill intent, and even during meals, he couldn't help but steal glances at her.

Late at night, while Wen Yifan was studying in her room, Che Xingde entered without knocking, sat beside her, and said he wanted to check her coursework. He even patted her shoulder, making Wen Yifan tremble in fear. Fortunately, Che Yanqin returned in time, and upon hearing the noise, Che Xingde backed out of the room. Despite the oppressive atmosphere at home, at least there was Sang Yan—her little sun.

Wen Yifan and Sang Yan made a promise to work hard together and get into Nanwu University. She didn’t want to stay in Beiyu anymore—she wanted to return to Nanwu to be with Sang Yan. Since she needed to focus on preparing for the exams, Wen Yifan asked Sang Yan not to keep traveling back and forth. They could meet again when the admission results came out. In Beiyu, the rain never seemed to stop, leaving everything damp and cold.

That day, when no one else was home, Che Xingde tricked Wen Yifan into leaving her room. While she was searching for seasoning in the kitchen, he took advantage of the moment and groped her. Wen Yifan struggled to escape just as Che Yanqin and her husband returned home. They realized what had happened but didn’t react at all.

Wen Yifan cried and begged her mother to take her away, but Zhao Yuandong casually brushed her off and hung up the phone. One night after the college entrance exams, Che Xingde sneaked into Wen Yifan’s room while she was sleeping. Just as he attempted to climb into her bed, she sprang up like a loaded spring, gripping a utility knife tightly. When she slashed his hand, instead of retreating, he became even more deranged.

He blocked all the exits, trapping Wen Yifan on the balcony. In utter despair, she unlocked the security window. Seeing that Che Xingde still wasn’t backing off, she made a split-second decision and jumped from the second floor. In the struggle, Che Xingde was dragged down with her. Wen Yifan couldn’t endure it any longer—she chose to call the police.

Che Yanqin threw a tantrum and complained to Zhao Yuandong, claiming that her brother had just been drunk and entered the wrong room by mistake. Now, not only had he broken his leg, but he was also being accused of attempted assault. After hearing this, Zhao Yuandong also thought Wen Yifan was making a big deal out of nothing. She insisted that Che Xingde’s uncle was a good man.

Since Wen Yifan was still a minor, a guardian was required to accompany her for the statement. However, Zhao Yuandong used her husband’s work as an excuse and quickly slipped away, leaving only the police officer to support Wen Yifan as she limped outside. While Wen Yifan was taking a walk by the river, Xiang Lang spotted her and immediately called Zhong Siqiao.

One was in Nanwu, the other in Hong Kong—though separated by distance, they shared the same sky and the same longing. Looking at the countless missed voice messages from Sang Yan, Wen Yifan never had the courage to reply. Half a year passed in the blink of an eye, and she was still living alone. Meanwhile, Che Xingde, working late, harassed a female customer. Seeing this, Sang Yan dragged him outside.

But Che Xingde hadn’t changed at all—he deliberately provoked Sang Yan with his words. Seizing a moment of distraction, he smashed a liquor bottle against Sang Yan. That was the final straw. Sang Yan completely lost it and beat Che Xingde to a pulp, only stopping when the man could no longer move.
