Even Mai Xiaomai was moved by his words, let alone Zhuang Jingmei.
Tears welled up in Zhuang Jingmei's eyes.
At that moment, she wanted to be with him every day, to stay by his side forever.
But, it was just a fleeting thought.
She knew that, given their current situation, it was not suitable for them to be together.

Mai Xiaomai accompanied them back to Jiangjing Garden.
Qiao Hengyuan and his son, Qiao Feng, were nowhere to be found at home.
"Xiaomai, call Hengyuan and see where he is."
Qiao Feng had a bad feeling and urged Mai Xiaomai to make the call.
Mai Xiaomai dialed Qiao Hengyuan's number.
But he didn't answer; she called several times with no response.
Qiao Feng had to use his own phone to try, but still no answer.
Zhuang Jingmei grew anxious, worried that something might have happened to her son.
Mai Xiaomai called Qiao Chutian.
Qiao Chutian was in his office dealing with urgent documents at that moment.
