Every day here felt like a year. Every minute and every second here was torture. Today… Madam Li said that she could leave. She had been waiting for this day.
The more anxious she was, the slower time passed. Sun Ying, who was tired from walking, leaned against the cold wall and sat down. She stared at the wall blankly.
Waiting for too long had exhausted her anger and patience.
However, she couldn't kick up a fuss. If not, the consequences would be even worse.
Two o'clock. She would be fine after two o'clock. After two o'clock… she would be free. She just had to wait a little longer. She had to wait patiently.

"Sun Ying…"
A cold and serious voice sounded. Sun Ying's name, hometown, and identification number were announced. The court and the police exchanged documents. After everything was done, the iron door opened with a clang. Sun Ying walked out of the small room that was about to drive her crazy.
When she finally walked under the sunlight, she couldn't help but smile. It was a low and gentle smile. It was especially sinister. The staff who escorted her to the court didn't find it strange. He had seen such an expression many times and was used to it.
However, Sun Ying didn't know that what was waiting for her wasn't a good thing. Even if she could regain her freedom today, Madam Li's arrangements were enough to make her a despicable person that everyone hated.
At around 1:40 pm, Ye Jian walked into the court with Hou Zi and Principal Chen.
After walking past the second trial hall, Ye Jian saw dozens of people sitting in the audience seats. She understood what the man in the suit meant yesterday when he said that his madam would make her happy tomorrow.
There were many people. There were at least 30 of them.
The people sitting in the audience seats were none other than her classmates from junior high and senior high. There were also the villagers from Shuikou Village. The famous gossip mongers, Aunt Yu and Aunt Qiu, were here too.
Everyone in the audience turned their heads and looked at Ye Jian who pushed the door open.
These students had not seen Ye Jian since they graduated from junior high and senior high, especially those in junior high. Besides An Jiaxin and a male student who met her during training, no one else had seen Ye Jian.
At this moment, they suddenly saw Ye Jian in her military uniform. Ye Jian's former classmates from junior high were shocked by the military aura emanating from Ye Jian. She was too unfamiliar. This Ye Jian made them feel very unfamiliar.

"Oh my God, is that Ye Jian? W-What… Why doesn't she look like her? She's really… cool and energetic."
She had changed… She had changed… She was completely different from the Ye Jian they knew!
Heavens!
Why did she change so much?
In their memory, Ye Jian was a skinny and small girl who spoke softly and walked slowly. She was always walking with her head lowered.
Although she suddenly changed in the second half of grade eight, the impression she left in the past was too deep. As a result, after not seeing her for four years, the version of her they remembered the most was the Ye Jian who was loyal to Sun Ying.
For most people, they remembered that version of Ye Jian.
"That's right, it's Ye Jian. Look at her face shape and eyes. They're the same as when she was in grade nine. At that time, she was prettier than Ye Ying… Oh, Sun Ying. It's been four years since we graduated, right? She's become prettier than before."
