The beautiful singing voice was like a drop of water falling into a river, like ripples spreading out, echoing endlessly in the space.

Sylvia held Ursula's hand as if she were reminiscing about the past with her teacher, her crimson lips parting slightly as she sang with abandon.

Listening to this song, Fang Li couldn't help but become somewhat immersed in it.

The songs were different from those I heard at the last concert, and also different from the tunes that Sylvia once hummed to Fang Li.

This song evokes a sense of melancholy, as if it's recounting a nostalgic past, which is quite captivating.

At that moment, Fang Li seemed to see it.

I saw a woman teaching a girl to sing.

I saw a woman accompanying a girl on an outing.

I saw a woman coaxing a girl to sleep.

I saw a woman cooking for a girl.

Those Matoba seemed to float directly into his mind, accompanying the beautiful singing, and entered Fang Li's body and mind.

Under such circumstances, how could Fang Li not be captivated?

Even as the song ended, Fang Li was still savoring the feeling, slowly raising his head to look ahead.

There, Sylvia had finished singing, put Ursula's hand under the covers, and then turned around to meet Fang Li's gaze.

Immediately afterwards, Sylvia closed one eye and said playfully, "Alright, let's go out first and not disturb Ursula's rest."

Fang Li nodded.

"Call----!"

A chilly wind whistled past.

This is the rooftop of the main treatment center.

After leaving Ursula's hospital room, Sylvia did not leave immediately, but came here instead.

Naturally, Fang Li also came along.

The rooftop here seems to have been designed so that patients can come here to relax and soak up the sun. It is planted with ornamental plants and trees, as well as benches, and there is a vending machine not far away.

Sylvia had Fang Li sit on a bench, while she went to the vending machine and bought two drinks, which she then brought over.

"Here you go." Sylvia handed one of the drinks to Fang Li.

Fang Li took it without opening it.

Sylvia did the same, simply holding her drink, sitting down next to Fang Li, looking ahead, seemingly lost in thought.

Neither of them spoke, yet the atmosphere was not awkward at all; on the contrary, there was a strange sense of warmth in it.

Fang Li simply sat there quietly, keeping Sylvia, without saying a word.

It was only after a long while that Sylvia spoke softly.

Thank you for everything.

It was a simple sentence, but it must have been the most sincere feeling that Sylvia had thought about for a long time before she decided to express it.

In other words, all the words in the story are condensed into this one sentence.

Fang Li simply smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry about it, I'm just fulfilling my promise."

Originally, finding Ursula shouldn't have been too difficult for the Fang Li.

After all, Fang Li has the advantage of foresight, and with some planning, it wouldn't be too difficult to find Ursula.

Therefore, for Fang Li, this matter was at most just something he did incidentally.

"Although I've interfered a bit too much, that's just how I am. I either don't do it at all, or I do it to the end." Fang Li shrugged and said to Sylvia in a casual tone, "So, your thank you is enough."

"...Is that so?" Sylvia lowered her head, looking at the drink she was holding in her hands, and said meaningfully, "Actually, you could be a little more greedy."

"Greedy?" Fang Li turned to look at Sylvia and asked, "You mean you want me to ask you for payment?"

"If I say that, you'll probably say that you received the payment at the beginning, right?" Sylvia seemed to see right through Fang Li. She turned her head to meet Fang Li gaze, staring straight into his eyes, and said this in a pleasant voice.

"However, I still want to say that you could actually ask for more compensation."

As she said this, Sylvia's eyes, which were fixed on Fang Li, were filled with emotions as turbulent as water.

That kind of emotion is like being able to suck a person's soul in, enough to make any man fall head over heels for it.

The sad thing is that Fang Li is also a man.

While not quite head over heels, he was still somewhat captivated, and for a moment, Fang Li couldn't look away, completely drawn to those beautiful, watery eyes.

This made Fang Li feel somewhat uneasy.

If things continue like this, we'll definitely repeat the same mistake as last time, right?

Last time, under the influence of the atmosphere, Fang Li made a mistake that any man would make, and couldn't help but bully the girl in front of him a little.

The atmosphere now is even more intense than last time.

If he gets too engrossed in it, Fang Li has no confidence that he can control himself.

Fang Li immediately suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.

However, just as Fang Li was about to look away, Sylvia's voice, so faint it seemed as if it could be blown away by the wind, reached his ears.

"Fool..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Sylvia suddenly brought her face closer.

"Chirp..."

With a soft sound, a soft touch pressed against Fang Li's lips.
