Ye Che left the beach but didn't go back to the old house; instead, he went to the hospital. He knew Xia Weiyi was getting discharged today, so he sat in his car, secretly waiting for her.
He waited a long time in the car but then saw Xu Zhiye's Audi parked at the entrance of the hospital. Then Xu Zhiye got out of his car, looking somewhat flustered, and rushed towards the inside of the hospital.
Only then did Ye Che remember the phone call Xia Weiyi received just before she left, when she was laughing so happily, and her complexion had visibly improved. She must have asked Xu Zhiye to pick her up.
That's why she was in such a good mood.
Ye Che leaned back in the driver's seat, gazing through the panoramic sunroof at the deep night sky.
The sky tonight had few stars, yet it was easy to spot the brightest one overhead.
He saw so clearly that moment, the most important person who, because of a decision he made, could be free from worries and happy forevermore.
