He Jun's matter has been fully entrusted to a lawyer by Liu Zhenghua to handle. Even if He Jun's father steps in to plead, it won't help. Perhaps He Jun himself didn't expect that such a small mistake would bring him such a frightening punishment.

When Liu Siyan boarded the plane, Xiaofan didn't show up. But maybe that's for the best, so she wouldn't cry again upon seeing him.

Lin Hai, Zhang Qing, and Chen Mengying all came to see Liu Siyan off.

"Siyan, keep in touch, okay?"

"Hmm, Meng Ying, you actually like Xiaofan too, don't you?"

"I..."

"You can't hide it from me. I noticed from the beginning. Take care of him. If you two really can be together, I'll sincerely wish you happiness."

"Forget it. Besides you and Shen Zuimo, I'm just an ordinary friend to him. At most, an old class monitor."

"Haha, who asked this guy to be so outstanding, making us unknowingly fall for him? Take care."

"Hmm. You too."

People say that this farewell is for a quicker reunion next time. Liu Siyan thinks so. In the final semester of high school, she made some good friends and left with the most beautiful and terrifying memories. But ultimately, as long as he was there, it was beautiful.

Outside the airport. Chen Mengying and Lin Hai encountered Xiaofan.

He came but didn't go inside.

"Xiaofan..."

"She left?" He deliberately asked, a bit regretful but not overly distressed. At least she wouldn't completely lose touch like Shen Zuimo.

"This is something Uncle Liu wanted me to give you." Chen Mengying handed a car key to Xiaofan, along with a car transfer document.

"A car?" Xiaofan asked doubtfully.

"Yes, Uncle Liu said the car that was wrecked has been repaired. But time's too tight and couldn't sell it, so it's a waste to leave it here. He's gifting it to you. It's in the parking lot," Chen Mengying said softly.

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go, I'll drive you home." Xiaofan took the keys, feeling inexplicably bitter.

High school life has ended. However, the one who gained the most memories wasn't Liu Siyan, but Ye Xiaofan himself. He seemed to see through many things, yet became even more confused.

He could use a bit of cunning to bring down Zhang Yongchang. He could hide Shen Zuimo under the assassin's nose. Yet, Ren Zhongtian made Xiaofan realize one could sacrifice their life for the people around them. Even though Lin Miaoke later told him the old man didn't have long to live, that kind of determination was beyond his understanding.

At night. At the bar.

Xiaofan got drunk once again, because of the bank card Lin Miaoke gave him, because of the words she passed on, and because of Liu Siyan's departure. Xiaofan wanted to indulge one more time, and after this time, he needed to return to normal, go back to who he was, and find his future again.

"Damn it, this kid's tolerance for alcohol has skyrocketed; I can't keep up. Black Skin, you're up." After Long shared three bottles with Xiaofan, he immediately backed off. He wasn't a match at all.

"Xiaofan..." Chen Mengying looking at what Xiaofan had become was a bit scared. Now that Liu Siyan also left, she really didn't know who could stop him.

"It's alright, just tonight. Old class monitor, don't go busy yourself tonight; just sit here tonight." Xiaofan pulled Chen Mengying closer, keeping her by his side.

Surprisingly, Chen Mengying struggled symbolically but didn't overly insist on leaving. Watching him pour drink after drink into his mouth, she really started to feel sorry for him.

"What is love? It just makes me recklessly devoted... No, what do love really make? Waste! Hahaha..."

Drunk. He finally got drunk.

Fei also finally breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at Long, Black Skin, and a few other brothers who had passed out, he worriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead. If he continued to drink, he'd be the one passing out next.

Just like before, Fei took Xiaofan to the hotel. Because Long and the other brothers were also knocked out from drinking, this time only Chen Mengying came along with Fei.

"Phew, what's this kid been eating these past few days? He seems to have gained weight." Fei put Xiaofan down, breathing heavily.

"Brother, thank you. You go rest, and leave this to me." Chen Mengying said softly.

"Hmm, sister-in-law, I'll leave it to you. Man, if this kid keeps drinking like this for another week, he'd need the whole crew at the bar to take him down, it's really scary." Fei laughed bitterly, waved goodbye to Chen Mengying, and then left.

In the hotel, only the two of them remained.

Watching Xiaofan's condition, Chen Mengying tenderly wiped the sweat from his forehead for him.

During my most difficult time, it was him who stood up for me. Now seeing him in such pain, I wish I could bear some of it for him, even if just a tiny bit. But I'm useless, lacking the love Shen Zuimo gave him, lacking the calm Liu Siyan offered. I can only accompany him as the "old class monitor," unable to provide him the best comfort.

"Mom, I'm not coming home tonight, please go to bed early. Hmm, it's fine, I'm with Xiaofan, don't worry."

After assuring her family of her safety, Chen Mengying went to freshen up.

"Don't go, Zuimo. Stay... Zuimo."

"Siyan, are you leaving too? Help me, I don't know what to do?"

"Zuimo, Zuimo... why are you so cruel."

For the first time, Xiaofan appeared so vulnerable, calling out the name of the person in his heart in his dreams, yet unfortunately, it wasn't her name.

"Don't go. Don't go."

"Xiaofan, Xiaofan, it's okay. It'll pass." Chen Mengying couldn't bear to see him suffer so and quickly went to comfort him.

Suddenly, Xiaofan grabbed her small hand tightly. Under such circumstances, his expression gradually eased and relaxed.

"Zuimo, please stay. I would spend a lifetime treating you well."

Tears silently fell. He fell in love with a woman he shouldn't have, and she too loved a man whose heart wasn't with her.

"Hmm, I won't go, I'll stay by your side."

"Really? You'll be a liar if you don't keep your promise."

"Hmm. Not lying." Chen Mengying whispered, and because of her words, the big hand grasping her wrist slowly released.

Originally, she thought he had calmed down, but who knew the dream Xiaofan clung onto Chen Mengying, refusing to let go.

The abrupt situation made Chen Mengying panic immediately. Suddenly, a gentle call came to her ears.

"Let me hold you properly."

"Hmm..." Responding softly, she slowly lowered her little head. Feeling involuntarily drew her closer to him; now, she could only do this for him.

However, sensing the person's response in his arms, Xiaofan's face also gradually returned to a peaceful calm.
