To start a new life, something had to change.

It was the first time in Yun Peng's life that he had to compromise with a person. Even towards the girl he loved deeply, Qi Ji, he had never.

He pressed the word ”Good” on his phone.

After sending it, he felt that he should say something else, so he typed in a string of words.

”Relax at daddy's place these few days. I'll wait for you to come home.”

Qi Miao couldn't believe her eyes. Yun Peng actually agreed to her request so easily, and even said wait for her to come home!

She thought that she needed to expend some effort and even use her life to force him to agree!

The sky outside the window became even darker, and snowflakes fell from time to time. Qi Miao sat for a long time, and read the reply given by Yun Peng once again.

Then, he sent a message to Ye Dongmo.

”From today on, I will stay in the sanatorium with my father!”

He was afraid that if he didn't reply, he would be at a loss, so he shut down the phone.

It was snowing on a cloudy day and it was getting dark very early.

The office was already shrouded in darkness, and Qi Miao did not turn on the light.

Fang Qi'er was shocked when she pushed open the door, ”Cat, what are you doing? Why aren't you turning on the lights?”

With a ”pa” sound, the room lit up. The sudden light made Qi Miao unwell and squint her eyes.

It was a good reason for her to lie, ”I took a nap and fell asleep!” He even pretended to rub his eyes.

”I'm off work. What are you doing today? Do you want to wait until the academy closes, or do you want to leave now? ”

”Together, I'll get off work too!”

”Come back to my house with me?”

”No!”

Fang Qi'er's eyes widened as she lowered her voice and asked, ”Are you going back to the Boss Ye?”

Qi Miao shook her head, ”No, I'm going to the sanatorium to see my father. I'll live there, and we'll live there from now on!”

Seeing that she had decided on it, Fang Qi'er did not ask anymore, and pulled Qi Miao's arm as they went down the elevator.

Qi Miao called for a taxi, and before she got on the carriage, she waved goodbye to Fang Qi'er. Her eyes quickly scanned around, but she did not see that familiar figure, nor did she see the black Maybach.

Perhaps, he was truly very busy!

Qi Miao comforted herself as she held her mobile.

It wasn't until they arrived at the sanatorium and saw her father sleeping peacefully on his sickbed, holding his big hand that didn't feel warm at all, that her unstable state of mind gradually calmed down.

Three days had passed and Ye Dongmo still had not called, nor had there been any news. However, the mahogany food box still arrived on time. The only difference was that the taste of the food was that of a restaurant.

Qi Miao suddenly realised that maybe Ye Dongmo had already given him a fixed amount of money. As long as he did not say anything, the restaurant would send him the money on time.

Unexpectedly, Yun Peng would call her every day to ask if she had eaten or slept well. He even cared about his father's condition.

But he did not urge her to return to the thousand-meter mansion.

Qi Miao thought about it thoroughly, and made up her mind. She wouldn't go back, and she didn't want to.

It didn't matter whether Ye Dongmo was there or not.

So, she called Yun Peng, ”Yun Peng, let's talk!”

”About what?”

”Let me go! I only attended your wedding in place of my sister, legal couple or both of you! ”
