Just as long as my illness is cured

After a long contemplation, Man Qingting finally said, "I'll tell you once this illness of mine is cured."

Having said that, Man Qingting coughed softly twice.

Ye Heng, with a puzzled frown, asked, "Why must you wait until your illness is cured before you can tell me?"

Man Qingting fell silent, her eyes misty. Seeing she wasn't responding, Ye Heng stood up and stormed out of the thatched hut in a huff.

Witnessing this scene, Chen Hao felt a sense of déjà vu. He thought back to the time when he asked Ye Yuqiao if she liked him, and Ye Yuqiao also had various non-responses. As the saying goes, the spectator sees the game better than the players. Now, watching the story of Ye Heng and Man Qingting from the perspective of a bystander, and seeing Man Qingting's struggle, he empathized with Ye Yuqiao's past difficulties.
