Zhouzhou was born with a lack of fortune, and after eating the Taoist temple into bankruptcy, she was finally driven down the mountain to beg for food. But inadvertently, she found a long-term source of sustenance.
After adopting little Zhou Zhou, Madam Qin immediately sent a message to her youngest son, "Look, you have a daughter!"
Qin Lie, who was supposed to be delighted at becoming a father, remained expressionless and said, "Send her away."
The young tyrants of the Qin family, who were supposed to be happy about having a little sister, looked disdainful and said, "We don't want her. She only knows how to cry, not fun at all."
Even the Qin family's arch-enemies were eagerly waiting to see Zhouzhou bankrupt the Qin family.
However, Qin Lie signed contracts every day until his hands were sore, and the Qin family thrived, securing their position as the wealthiest family. Even the crippled seventh brother of the Qin family became able to run and jump.
At a banquet, the young tyrants of the Qin family surrounded Zhouzhou, trying to please her.
"Sister, we'll give you all the delicious food!"
"Sister, what kind of story do you want to hear today? Brother will tell you!"
Qin Lie walked straight over, picked up the little girl, and glanced coldly at his nephews, declaring ownership, "She's my daughter!"
Hi! I just came across The Years Between Us and I got hooked following Andrew and Henry's friendship through such a big life transition. Andrew getting accepted into Everland University for his dream of becoming a neurosurgeon, and that bittersweet goodbye at the airport where Henry holds back tears watching him leave, really set the emotional tone for the story. The little details, like Henry keeping the box Andrew left behind with the hoodie and photos, wearing it just to feel close to him again, added so much warmth to their bond. And Andrew unexpectedly running into Antonio from his flight as his university project partner felt like such a fun full-circle moment to kick off his new chapter. I do manga-style commission art, and stories with this much heartfelt friendship and personal growth are exactly what I love drawing. I'd love to create art of Henry hugging that hoodie in his room, surrounded by the Polaroids, or that final airport goodbye between Andrew and Henry right before he heads through the departure gate.
