After Qiao Zijin left, Ding Jiayi had no one to talk to. She finally understood how painful it was to be alone.
She wanted to befriend the neighbors, but the latter wanted no business with Ding Jiayi.
Even if Ding Jiayi joined their gatherings, she could only listen from afar as she had no chance to join the conversations.
It hadn't been that long since Qiao Zijin's departure, but Ding Jiayi knew that she couldn't bear such loneliness for much longer.
She didn't feel alive.
She had enough money to live a healthy life without working, so she should have been enjoying her retirement.
However, Ding Jiayi knew that she was unhappy about the way she lived.
Throughout her deserted days, she spent all her timing wondering how she ended up this way.
She felt like someone without a family, but was she?
She was not!
She had a husband, two daughters, and four grandchildren.
