After the driver stopped scolding him, he looked at the teen’s face, his heart shivered.
Why doesn’t he look like a normal person?
He stepped on the accelerators, mumbled about how unlucky he was, and drove off.
Meng Ting stopped looking, but when she turned around, her heart skipped a beat. It was the first time she experienced that even if some things did change, but fate is still slowly moving on its original course.
Shu Yang softly asked: “Do you know him?”
Meng Ting didn’t answer. Shu Yang took a look at her and didn’t ask about anything else.
They got to the hospital and queued for an hour.
Meng Ting’s attending doctor is a good friend of hers, she was from the same village as her mum, and were even middle school mates.
“Aunty Sun.”
Sun Qiao Yi smiled gently under her medical mask, took off her glasses, she let Meng Ting lie down on the medical bed, and checked on her eyes with a light beam.
Meng Ting uncomfortably blinked her eyes, and tears started to flow out.
Her eye colour was slightly light coloured, not totally black, but it wasn’t the normal brown too, it was more of a light brown tone. It was pure and clean like the rainwater cleansed it.
Shu Yang originally stood at the door, he looked unbothered, Sun Qiao Yu wasn’t all too friendly to him either.
“Young lad, come over and help me shine the light.”
Shu Yang walked over and took the beam from her hands.
The moment he looked down, he froze for a while.
The girl’s clear eyes were dazzling under the light. Her flawless skin, cherry lips. Her long eyelashes moist, as light as the butterfly wings, but in her eyes, it gave off a peaceful vibe.
It was Shu Yang’s first time in three years looking at the grown-up Meng Ting.
He was the same with Shu Lan and was mesmerized by the 10 years old Meng Ting then.
Back then their parents had broken up for almost a year, Father Shu wasn’t good at taking care of children, both of the kids looked awful, Shu Yang had the flu, his nose was bright red. He had worn his outfit for 5 consecutive days, his collar smudged with stains.
Shu Lan wasn’t any better, her shirt and pockets were also dirty.
However, that day was the day Chen Yu Jie officially moved into the Shu family, Father Shu awkwardly and carefully changed both of his kids into a fresh set of clothes.
The moment when Chen Yu Jie walked in the door while holding Meng Ting’s hands.
Shu Lan and Shu Yang, that were watching the television, was dumbfounded.
Even if their father dressed them up nicely, it was still hard to describe their feelings when they first met Meng Ting.
She was holding onto Chen Yu Jie’s hands, her face also looked anxious about the future.
The 10 years old little girl was wearing a reddish-black coloured dress, her hair reached her shoulders. White socks, black leather shoes. Her skirt was clean and tidy, her features gentle and beautiful.
Yes, beautiful.
Not cute that people always use to describe kids, but a type of flourishing beauty. Like the young dragonflies at the start of summer, softly landing on the tip of the leaves. A delicate type of beauty.
She saw the pair of siblings sillily looking at her with their mouths wide open, she reached out her small hands, under Chen Yu Jie’s encouragement, and smiled shyly: “Hello little brother and sister, I’m Meng Ting.
Shu Lan hurriedly reached out and shook her hand.
Shu Yang dazedly wiped his dirty hands on the back of his shirt, and softly shook on the little girl’s hand.
Fair and soft, the back of her hand even had cute dimples.
Like cotton.
After Meng Ting left, Shu Lan whispered: “Brother, she’s so pretty.”
En, he silently nodded.
Shu Lan said: “It’ll be so nice if I was as pretty as her.”
Shu Yang didn’t talk.
“Bro, your snot is coming out, ew, how dirty.”
It was the first time he felt utterly embarrassed, he wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
The year when he was fourteen, Meng Ting’s eyes started to have problems.
This didn’t affect Shu Yang’s life at all, but the delicate and pretty young girl had to wear weird-looking glasses. She even had to rely on a walking stick to walk, her world turned pitch black.
Sometimes when they were walking, people would stare.
Slowly, the whole neighbourhood forgot the Meng Ting back then. That shy beautiful, but extremely dazzling young girl. Including Shu Yang, it was hard to associate his introvert quiet stepsister now, with the little fairy-like Meng Ting from back then.
Until today, as he was holding on to the light beam, it showed her mature look.
She is already 17 years old.
She grew into a look that would make Shu Lan jealous, but even better looking than what he imagined back then. Shu Yang didn’t know what he felt within, and quietly turned his gaze away.
Sun Qiao Yu complained: “Young lad, stay focused, the light is slanted.”
Shu Yang raised his hands higher.
Sun Qiao Yu finished checking up, satisfyingly smiled: “Ting Ting, congratulations. Your eyes are already recovered, you don’t need to wear these glasses anymore.
Shu Lan glanced at Meng Ting, he didn’t say anything.
Meng Ting also didn’t expect things to progress so fast.
In her past life, it took her another half month for her eyes to fully recover, but after some careful thought, she understood a key point. In her last life, at this point of time, she was helping Shu Lan clean after her mess, her eyes nearly got a second infection. This life, she didn’t care for Shu Lan anymore, she protected her eyes well, so naturally, it healed quicker.
But…….all her bad luck, started the moment her eyes recovered.
Meng Ting said: “Aunty Sun, my eyes still hurt under strong light.”
Sun Qiao Yu: “Of course, you’ve worn these glasses for so long, you’re already used to the grey and white world. Your eyes can’t resist any stimulation, suddenly being exposed to light, you’ll of course feel discomfort. So now you can’t rely on it anymore, learn to accept the world again. I’ll give you two bottles of eyes solution, but still don’t overuse your eyes. If your eyes start to hurt, take a rest, anyways, just slowly start to readjust, if you have any questions, feel free to come to look for me.”
Sun Qiao Yu’s statement changed her whole world.
Outside of the hospital was a big Paulownia tree.
The old tree had only a few leaves at the start of winter, but at the top of the tree, there were still a few bright green leaves hanging strong. The brown branches supported these winter leaves, Meng Ting could seem to smell the faint scent of the grass and the soil apart from the hospital’s medicine smell.
The sky was bright blue, there wasn’t a single cloud in the sky. It was a rare gentle and sunny day in the winter.
Meng Ting’s world was finally filled with colours again.
The whole path that Shu Yang and her walked down, the people that passed by them seemed to stare. The 17-year-old teenage girl has fully blossomed, a kind eye-catching beauty.
Meng Ting walked out of Sun Qiao Yu sight, looking at the skies and the grass field, she softly sighed, and took out the glasses from her bag and wore it back.
Shu Yang didn’t think much of it, he assumed that her eyes weren’t used to it, and was painful after a while.

The weather in November, even with slight sunlight, the air was still tinted with coldness.
He Jun Ming and Fang Tan, until the end, didn’t dare to look for Jiang Ren.
He Han signalled He Jun Ming, He Jun Ming got his signals and went to the milk tea store to buy a cup of hot tea.
The few of them stood far away, after some time, Jiang Ren walked over.
That intense scary emotion had mellowed down like the tide, he became unusually silent.
He Jun Ming passed him the milk tea: “Boss Ren, drink some water.”
The cold air breathed into his chest felt extremely painful.
Jiang Ren reached out to take it, he took a look at them but did not speak a word at all. Amongst this bunch of teenagers, some of them played with him since he was young, and the others became friends with him after he came to H City.
But now, their gaze showed a sense of awkwardness and avoidance.
Only the foolish He Jun Ming stayed the same, his gaze still pleasant: “I didn’t let them add that black thing in your drink, hehe, boss Ren, don’t worry and just drink away.”
Jiang Ren gave him a pat on the shoulder, without saying anything.
Fang Tan was much more clever.
When Jiang Ren just got to H City, many people were trying to please him. He mockingly smiled: “Aren’t you scared that I’ll kill you all with my illness?”
It’ll be fake if we’re not scared of it, but his serious bipolar disorder only sounded like a mere term, not many people had witnessed it, so it didn’t seem so scary. With just a wave of hands, a bunch of people would sacrifice their lives for him. The people who couldn’t get near him always held on to this point and teased, “Yo, he’s only just a crazy rich dude, what’s there to brag about.”
The first time they met, Jiang Ren really couldn’t control his emotions.
If the bus stopped just now, who knows what will happen.
He Jun Ming and Jiang Ren live close to each other.
They always ride home together.
He Jun Ming said: “Boss Ren, you’re not emotionally stable now, how about I fetch you.”
Jiang coldly glanced at him. His gaze is very obvious, beat it, I’m a man.
He wore his helmet, his long legs got on the car, and put on his jacket.
As he looked up, he bumped into a familiar figure.
Sheng Yu Qing was holding onto another guy’s arms, laughing as they talked. The guy was wearing Seven High’s school uniform. She felt that someone was looking at her, she turned around and saw Jiang Ren.
Her face turned pale at first then green, it was so amusing. She let go of the guy and ran towards Jiang Ren.
He Jun Ming unamusingly snorted: “Wow wow, Ms Shen, the prettiest girl in school is in a new relationship?” That’s why he always said that Lu Yue is better. He Jun Ming always thought, based on Jiang Ren’s personality, he wouldn’t even take a look at her.
Surprisingly, Jiang Ren didn’t leave.
His black pupils under the helmet, quietly looked at Shen Yu Qing as she walked over.
Sheng Yu Qing with her face pale: ‘Jiang Ren, I can explain, we don’t have anything going on, but it’s almost our monthly exams, so he lent a few books to me, I’m just returning it to him only.”
Jiang Ren took a look at the guy in the Seven High Uniform, and looked down at Sheng Yu Qing: “I thought that Seven High doesn’t let student’s date? Why are you dating.”
Shen Yu Qing said: “Because I really like you, I don’t care about anything other than you.”
Jiang Ren surprisingly kept quiet for a few seconds, “What do you like in him, his good results?”
Sheng Yu Qing was stunned for quite a long time and hurriedly denied it. She suddenly thought that Jiang Ren seemed to be asking her, but also not asking about her. It felt like he already saw through her, and was asking about something else. She didn’t understand and said a few more times than she liked Jiang Ren after.
Jiang Ren didn’t say anything and drove away.
Under the wind, He Jun Ming said: “Boss Ren, you still have feelings for her, why are you talking to her, flirty girls like her, how can she be as good as Lu Yue, Shen Yu Qing doesn’t like you as she said just now.”
Jiang Ren looked towards the road in the far distance, his hands clenched.
“I know.” He always knew, there are so many people that confessed their feelings to him, but not many of them were genuine. He didn’t really care. Since…..he’s reckless, incompetent, smoking and fighting, and also has a mental illness.
The wind made his throat dry, he blurted: “He Jun Ming, a girl like her with such good results, why would she date someone.”
He Jun Ming dazed and assumed that he was talking about Shen Yu Qing.
He sighed for a few seconds, unsurely replied: “Maybe she can’t resist the temptation? Not like those closed-minded people that are so traditional.”
Jiang Ren kept quiet for a few seconds: “Then, why can’t it be me?”
Except for her good results, there wasn’t anything else she particularly excelled at, her eyes also had a minor problem, and she didn’t look as luring as Sheng Yu Qing, he didn’t mind it. And his illness can also be tolerated right?
His voice was soft, under the wind in November, nothing could be heard.
