"Thank you for what?"
Moo Huantong wasn't sure how to explain, "Just for... everything."
Lu Yuwei walked over a few steps and suddenly reached out to hold her in his arms. His movements were gentle, merely offering a hug, "Huantong, this is all I've owed you. If I hadn't left four years ago, you wouldn't have suffered like this."
"...…"
Moo Huantong's heart clenched, she closed her eyes, "Teacher, you did nothing wrong... none of us did. This is just fate."
Lu Yuwei smiled bitterly, "Do you still believe in fate?"
Moo Huantong stepped back lightly, "Precisely because I don't believe, it keeps proving itself to me."
"There won't be a next time."
Lu Yuwei reached out to rub her head, "I'm leaving. Don't roam around, I'll be back soon."
"Okay."
The sound of a car engine started downstairs. Moo Huantong felt her way over to the table and sat down. She gripped the milk cup, only to find it had gone completely cold.
