Ye Qingya spent the past few days at Changxing Hospital. After a brief interaction with Qiao Rulong, she realized she hadn't gone outside for a walk in days. An unexplained sense of restlessness arose within her, and she had a strong urge to go out, feel the sunshine and breeze, and touch the real world.
Qiao Rulong's car accident brought her to Dongzhou, confining her in this hospital. As his wife, she felt obligated to stay by his side, sleepless and unfed. Seeing that Qiao Rulong was out of danger, she felt a huge relief, not just for his new lease on life, but also for regaining her freedom.
Ye Qingya knew very well what kind of person she was. She had her own inner world. She could live without marriage, without children, but she couldn't lose her freedom.
She hadn't always thought this way. Growing up, she was an obedient girl with an enviable family background. She didn't even need to plan for her future; her family had arranged everything for her, including her marriage.
