During his time in rehabilitation, Xin Su had easily confirmed which department Jiang Yuchi was in and which dormitory she lived in at C University through the interconnected student group chats between the colleges.
After arriving in Jing City, Xin Su had initially wanted to rush straight to her. But when he stood before the glass walls of the metropolis and caught a glimpse of his own reflection, he turned away, deciding to report to his own university first. After all, a man with bangs covering his face, leaning on a cane and looking sickly, would only frighten her if he were to appear suddenly.
On the eve of the day he planned to see her, Xin Su tidied himself up in his dorm and then went out to get his bangs trimmed. He stared at his reflection in the mirror, lost in thought. The barber was an enthusiastic middle-aged man who, after finishing the haircut, couldn't stop complimenting him on how spirited and handsome he looked, adding that he was sure to be popular. As Xin Su finished paying and turned to leave, the man chased after him, asking, "Young man, do you need me to help you walk a ways?"
