In that moment, a warmth spread through Cao Jiajia's heart.
Her throat tightened and the tip of her nose tingled. Tears welled up in her eyes again, but this time, it wasn't from feeling wronged.
She looked up at Yu Yeping's dark, thin face.
She finally understood how Shanshan had managed to hold on after being kicked out by her family. 'It turns out that having someone who genuinely cares about you really can hold up the sky.'
Back then, she hadn't understood. She thought she couldn't survive after leaving home.
But now she knew that as long as there was someone by her side willing to shield her from the wind and rain, life could never completely fall apart, no matter how hard it got.
She slowly stopped crying, wiped her face with the back of her hand, and sat up straight.
After a good cry, she steeled her heart and decided to build a life with Yu Yeping.
She didn't want to beg anyone for help or bow her head ever again.
