Fu Yong had mixed feelings about his impromptu companion.
The man was He Kuan, one of the few rich people in the village. He was also the only person in the village to attend university and graduated from medical school.
The year he graduated, he happened to meet 'Mu Chi'—Fu Yong in disguise—recuperating in the village.
He Kuan was a warm-hearted person and had the medical know-how to help.
Everyone in the village thought 'Mu Chi' was odd and difficult to approach. Only He Kuan would frequently visit to check on his injuries every few days and sometimes even send over some specialty drugs.
This unexpected friendship in his time of difficulty initially made Fu Yong feel warm. But later, it became his burden.
He Kuan had somehow found out about the history between the Mu and the Hua families and news of the engagement between the two families became public.
