That's all we can do.

Ling Ziqian looked at the door in front of him. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.

He turned and went downstairs.

Inside the house, Dou Xiaorong heard Ling Ziqian's footsteps as he left.

She removed her hand from her mouth and, facing the empty room, began to sob like an abandoned, neglected child.

Back at the cake shop, Yu Meiren saw Ling Ziqian return. She didn't say anything; she had seen the two of them walk past the door earlier.

Ling Ziqian went upstairs and headed towards his room.

Cupid put down the donut in her hand and followed Ling Ziqian curiously.

Upon seeing the silver watch on Ling Ziqian's hand, which contained 5 points of ambiguity, she excitedly raised her finger and swallowed those 5 points of ambiguity.

Those 5 points of ambiguity were generated by Ling Ziqian's contact with Dou Xiaorong in the hospital room.

Ling Ziqian didn't care that Cupid Sauce had taken it.

Cupid tilted her head and tugged at Ling Ziqian's sleeve. "Hey, what's wrong? Why are you unhappy?"

Ling Ziqian tried his best to smile at Cupid.

In Cupid's opinion, Ling Ziqian's smile was uglier than a cry.

"Go watch TV, don't worry about me."

"I'm your older sister!"

Cupid put her hands on her hips and glared angrily at Ling Ziqian.

Ling Ziqian was stunned for a moment, unsure of what to say.

"Are you having relationship troubles?" Cupid asked Ling Ziqian.

"It doesn't count..."

Before Ling Ziqian could finish speaking, Cupid crossed her arms and smiled smugly. "Hmph, you know who I am, yet you didn't ask me for help when you encountered something like this. You clearly don't respect me!"

Huan Yue became excited, "Quickly beg Cupid to help you!"

Ling Ziqian was very puzzled, "How can she help me?"

"She's the goddess of love, she'll find a way!"

"oh oh!"

Ling Ziqian really overlooked the fact that Cupid-chan is Cupid!

He grinned shamelessly, "Um, Cupid-chan..."

Call me sister!

"Okay, miss, please help me..."

Upon hearing Ling Ziqian's plea for help, Cupid Sauce revealed a sweet smile.

She spoke with a precocious air, "Many, many times, when it comes to relationships, people miss out because they worry too much, are too shy, and are too timid!"

"So..." Cupid stood on tiptoe and flicked Ling Ziqian's forehead, "Go find her quickly!"

Episode 6: The Courage Given by Cupid

Chapter 41 Go to hell! Go to hell!

After being flicked on the forehead by Cupid, Ling Ziqian seemed to have an epiphany.

A surge of heroic spirit welled up within me; at this moment, I was willing to do anything!

Why was Dou Xiaorong angry with him? What exactly happened this morning? Ling Ziqian wanted to know!

He couldn't wait until tomorrow; he needed to know the answer immediately!

As Cupid said, because of too many concerns, we miss out.

If we don't resolve things with Dou Xiaorong now, it might cause a rift in our relationship if we wait until tomorrow.

The crack is like a shattered mirror; it can never be put back together!

"Miss, I understand, I'm coming right now!" Ling Ziqian smiled and reached out to pat Cupid's head.

"Ugh..." Cupid was startled.

By the time she came to her senses, Ling Ziqian had already left the room.

Waaah... Cupid-chan hugged her head in grievance.

He shouldn't have been given courage; in the end, he dragged himself down with him.

When he comes back, I'll take back my courage; I don't want him to pat my head every day!

Ling Ziqian strode downstairs.

Yu Meiren sat behind the counter, casually tending to the shop.

Seeing Ling Ziqian's triumphant appearance, she was astonished. He was completely different from the dejected man she had just seen.

Seeing the poppy reminded Ling Ziqian of some things.

“Mom!” He walked to the counter.

“Call me Sister Beauty!” Yu Meiren glared at him.

"Hmm." Ling Ziqian gave a hearty smile. "You always want to go out and have fun, right? I'll introduce you to a classmate. Because of some financial difficulties at home, she's been doing various part-time jobs, but I'm worried about her. Why don't you invite her over? It won't cost much. Anyway, the cake shop is already making a lot of money. Just think of it as a vacation for yourself!"

Before Yu Meiren could react, Ling Ziqian took out his phone and sent Su Mingxi's number to her.

"Her name is Su Mingxi. She's Xiao Rong's good friend. She came to the store last time. You should have secretly seen her. That's all."

"What do you mean, 'just like this'..."

Ling Ziqian strode out, ignoring Yu Meiren's shouts.

"What?" Yu Meiren muttered in dissatisfaction, but couldn't help but smile. "That's more like a man. What did he figure out when he went upstairs? What happened?"

Yu Meiren looked up at the building and smiled.

She took out her phone, found Ling Ziqian's information, and dialed Su Mingxi's number.

After crying for a long time, Dou Xiaorong wiped away her tears and went into the bathroom.

She took off her clothes and stood in front of the mirror, looking at her flabby body.

Whether it's the cheeks, the belly, or the arms and thighs, there's flesh everywhere on my body!

There's a feeling of despair!

I've been trying to lose weight, but I haven't lost a single ounce of fat.

Is this my fate?

What should we do then?

I thought he would be able to wait until the day he lost weight.

However, he didn't wait, and he didn't lose weight either.

I always feel that living in this world has lost its meaning.

Just as this thought crossed her mind, a loud knocking on the door brought Dou Xiaorong back to reality.

"Xiao Rong, open the door!" Ling Ziqian's voice came from outside.

Why is he back?

Dou Xiaorong was confused about the situation.

"Xiao Rong, open the door quickly! I was hit by a car and I'm injured and bleeding. Open the door right now, or I'll die!"

Dou Xiaorong was quite frightened when Ling Ziqian said those words.

She had intended to get dressed, but upon hearing Ling Ziqian's words, she was so frightened that she forgot all about dressing, grabbed a bath towel, wrapped it around herself, and left the bathroom, slamming open the living room door.

When Dou Xiaorong opened the door and saw Ling Ziqian standing there unharmed with a grin, she immediately realized she had been tricked!

Ling Ziqian smiled, but he didn't expect Dou Xiaorong to be naked, only wrapped in a bath towel. He turned his head away awkwardly.

"You lied to me, you lied to me again, you bad guy, you big bad guy!" Dou Xiaorong burst into tears and slammed the living room door shut.

"I didn't mean to lie to you, I was just worried you wouldn't open the door!" Ling Ziqian quickly pressed down on the door to prevent Dou Xiaorong from closing it.

Dou Xiaorong, with one hand covering her face with a bath towel and the other closing the door, was still in tears. She was no match for Ling Ziqian.

Unable to close the door, she gave up and ran into the room.

"Don't run away!" Ling Ziqian entered the house and quickly followed Dou Xiaorong.

"Get out of the way!" Dou Xiaorong tried to close the door.

This time, Ling Ziqian was quick-witted and slipped into Dou Xiaorong's room.

Dou Xiaorong wanted to leave, but Ling Ziqian closed the door to the room.

"Why are you crying?" Ling Ziqian walked over, wanting to wipe away Dou Xiaorong's tears. "Did I make you angry?"

"Mind your own business!" Dou Xiaorong slapped Ling Ziqian's hand away.

Ling Ziqian smiled and said, "So it was me who made you angry. What did I do to make you angry? Tell me, okay?"

"I don't want to see you, go away!" Dou Xiaorong turned around, her back to Ling Ziqian.

"I'm not leaving until you explain things clearly!" Ling Ziqian said shamelessly.

Dou Xiaorong turned to look at Ling Ziqian and felt that he was much more assertive and shameless than before.

Ling Ziqian walked up behind Dou Xiaorong, lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Don't cry, it hurts me to see you cry like this. What misunderstanding is there between us? Tell us. If we don't tell us, are we going to have a cold war for the rest of our lives?"

Misunderstand?

Dou Xiaorong recalled the scene she had seen by the river.

Ling Ziqian and Su Mingxi sat together. He had called Su Mingxi, but Su Mingxi hadn't told him at all that he was with her.

He lied to himself; was it a misunderstanding?
