When they were young

  Time slipped away like flowing water between fingers, and a month's deadline arrived.

  In just thirty short days, what seemed to be an uneventful period in Ling Hao Tian and Nan Gong Ming Lu's life quietly slipped away. In reality, however, there were always some forgotten moments that lingered in the softest corners of their hearts...

  This is the last day of Nan Gong Ming Lu's appointment with Ling Hao Tian. Nan Gong Ming Lu has brought a meal tray and sat on the stone steps outside, enjoying the view while eating. She has even fallen in love with this feeling, far away from the hustle and bustle, quiet and peaceful. Thinking that she won't be able to see these tomorrow, she is somewhat reluctant to part with it.

  To her surprise, Ling Haotian also brought out a plate and sat down beside her. After they had eaten most of the food, Ling Haotian suddenly said: "Tell me about your childhood, how was it?"

  "When I was little?" Nangong Minglu smiled, with a hint of bitterness in her smile. "Didn't I already say? Just like that day when I sang at V Bar...

  Once very happy

  Used to be very satisfied

  Used to be the perfect angel

  But one day, everything changed suddenly.

  No more fancy clothes

  No more big tree like dad

  Became a poor single princess.

  ……

  Used to cry a lot

  Used to be very lonely

  Thought happiness would never be seen again

  But one day, I suddenly found myself grown up.

  Having a different kind of happiness

  Having an angel guarding oneself

  Became a perfect single princess.

  ……’

  That was my childhood.

  I used to be very happy, with a family that was the happiest in the world. My family was well-off, my parents were loving, and my brother was very caring towards me...

  But one day, everything suddenly changed. My parents started arguing nonstop and then got divorced. My mom took me away, and I lost my dad. My brother lost his mom. Later on, my dad remarried, and the woman he married brought a boy with her.

  At that time, I stubbornly believed that if they disappeared, Dad would come back to our side. So, I thought of many bad ideas to play tricks on that boy.

  Perhaps it was because I had no one to rely on, but the boy endured many of the hurtful things I did to him in silence. Later, when my mother found out about all this, she worried that I would become a bad person and decided to take me to the other side of the ocean so that I could be far away from him... For several years, I didn't see my father or brother again...

  Nangong Minglu's eyes turned red, in the early days when she and her mother left their hometown, they really had a hard time, living a simple life was still bearable, but what was hardest for them to bear was being separated from their loved ones, not seeing her father and brother, Nangong Minglu would often wake up crying in her dreams.

  Ling Haotian looked at Nangong Minglu's tears welling up in her eyes and remained silent for a long time.
