“No, you are not… . ” An Chuxia shakes her head violently . She turns around and runs as quickly as she can outside the house .

“An Chuxia!” Han Qilu chases after her .

“An Chuxia!” Jiang Yuan and An Chen Chuan call after her in chorus .

The older gentlemen try to chase after her but Han Liuhai pulls Yishan to a halt .

“Let us go!” Jiang Yuan wants to break free . She feels helpless and small . “I did not want to bring Chuxia to this strange place!”

“Don’t get too worked up about it . Qilu will catch up to her . This will be resolved,” Han Liuhai reassures his wife . However, he can’t dismiss the nagging feeling from within . Chuxia’s reaction is bizarre . She has always been well-behaved and sensible . What happened?

She runs through the streets, quickly tiring herself . When she can’t run anymore, she stands in place and then squats on the ground, hugging her knees .

Han Qilu sees Chuxia three meters away . He stops . He hears her chanting, “Not him, not him… . ”

Not him .  What does she mean? He is puzzled . As he recalls her story, he has a moment of revelation . If he’s right, An Yishan is the one who abandoned Chuxia and her mother, right?

The world is not that cruel . But if that’s not the case, how can he explain her unexpected emotions?

He lifts his feet and walks slowly toward Chuxia . Once he is at her side, he reaches out and grabs her wrist and arm . Despite not liking her, and maybe disgusted with her, he feels she needs a shoulder to cry on . Otherwise, she’ll collapse and if that happens, he won’t be able to forgive himself .

He suddenly wraps his arms around her . She doesn’t struggle, knowing it’s Qilu . Despite being the devil, she knows he’ll always be there for her when she needs him .

“He is not . No… . ” Her tears stain his collar, messing up his white shirt . She balls her fingers around his shirt as she chants, he is not, while her tears keep pouring .

He raises his hand and strokes her hair . He says quietly to her, “If he’s not, then he’s not . ”

“But he is!” She suddenly pushes Han Qilu away . “He is… ah… even if it’s a faint memory, I remember what happened . I don’t know… . ”

As she speaks, she retreats . Han Qilu takes two steps to her and secures her wrist and says, “An Chuxia, you’re not even afraid of me . How is it seeing An Yishan throws off your confidence?”

Han Qilu finds the situation ironic . He stares at her small eyes . If he didn’t go after her, would he have understood? Was it An Yishan who left her the dog and causing her to hate them?

“You’re not me . You won’t understand,” she says, her eyes filled with sadness .

“I may not understand how you’re feeling but I know what kind of person you are . You’re stronger than most people . Forget the past . He doesn’t remember you . You don’t have to remember him . ”
