Back at the hospital, Han Xi overheard the nurses gossiping, saying that the news of Shi Yu's engagement to the Li Family's heiress had already spread online.
These days Han Xi and Manman would video chat with Chu Ci every day, fearing she might overthink things alone. Now with Shi Yu's engagement news, they could only imagine how heartbroken Chu Ci must be.
Han Xi called Chu Ci intending to comfort her, but unexpectedly, Chu Ci ended up comforting Han Xi instead.
She said that Shi Yu was already in the past. People must look forward; no matter how beautiful past memories are, they can only remain memories. Staying stuck in the past only results in more pain, and she's past the age of being satisfied with love alone. She won't be defeated by emotional setbacks, and she said she has moved on.
But Han Xi couldn't quite believe her.
She knew Chu Ci's nature, and that she was saying this just to preserve the last shred of her dignity.
