Hu Yue and Jiang Bingbing walked out of the cinema, their hearts still touched by the plot, especially tearing up over the protagonists' missed opportunities. The movie inspired Hu Yue to believe she should bravely pursue love, but she was curious whether men preferred mature or pure women. In response, Jiang Bingbing shared her view: young men often like mature women, while older men prefer purity. Six months ago, Qingshui Town remained unchanged, unaffected by anyone's emotional fluctuations.

Zhou Luo could only watch the clothing store from a distance, his gaze following the woman who made his heart flutter until she disappeared into the doorway of the shop, feeling a sense of loss. Meanwhile, Jiang Bingbing gave Hu Yue advice on how to pursue Zhou Luo, teaching her how to show her feminine charm, confident that she would succeed.

At school, Hu Yue used the excuse of publishing Macau posters to ask Zhou Luo to stay and help her write on the blackboard, creating an opportunity for them to be alone. Because Zhou Luo had previously helped Nan Ya, in Hu Yue's view, he was a boy who was not bound by old ideas and was very respectful of girls, and her admiration for him grew day by day, but Zhou Luo seemed reluctant to talk about it much.

The next morning, Hu Yue proactively went to Nan Ya to alter a dress and tentatively asked her if she had someone she liked. Although Nan Ya was a bit uncomfortable, she still responded politely. As Nan Ya closed the store and rode her bicycle home, she happened to see Zhou Luo walking home from school with Hu Yue. However, the two passed each other without speaking. Soon, Zhou Luo learned from Wan Wan that Nan Ya planned to leave.

He was shocked and filled with panic. Although he knew he wasn't important in Nan Ya's heart, he still couldn't help but go find her. The pureness, ideals, recklessness, and persistence that a young man should possess, that stubbornness of running into a wall without knowing how to turn back, were fully displayed in him. The thought of Nan Ya leaving and completely disappearing from his world felt like a knife twisting in his heart.

He hugged Nan Ya tightly, openly expressing his love. Although Nan Ya had a moment of being moved, she quickly regained her composure. She wanted Zhou Luo to understand that love and liking are two different things, and liking might just be an impulse he mistakenly thought was deep affection. For someone his age, liking someone was like catching a bad cold; with time, he would forget.

At Nan Ya's insistence, Zhou Luo went home in a daze, his emotions uncontrollable. That night, he sat at his desk and recorded a cassette tape for Nan Ya, pouring out the words he had kept hidden in his heart for a long time. As if overnight, he learned awe and fear, not daring to disturb Nan Ya's life anymore, and realized that she was a huge challenge on his path in life.

This small town, just like every day in the past, always greeted the first ray of dawn with vulgarity, noisiness, and decay. Business owners opened their shops as usual, people gathered at the small store to gossip as usual, and no one knew that at this moment, a woman was quietly preparing to leave this town. Nan Ya did not foolishly wait for another man to redeem her like Wang Guihong.

Instead, using the excuse of visiting Xu Yi's mother in the city, she took a bus directly to the train station. After giving Nan Ya the cassette tape, Zhou Luo silently followed her, watching her and Wan Wan enter the station, his face streaming with tears. However, just as Nan Ya was about to board the train, Xu Jian suddenly appeared and pulled Nan Ya into his arms.

Subsequently, a group of people rushed forward, dragged her off the train without question, and took her back to the Xu family ancestral hall in Qingshui Town. Everyone accused Nan Ya of being a slut who seduced someone else's husband, and the situation gradually got out of control.

More and more spectators gathered, a group of women like hyenas fiercely tore at Nan Ya's clothes, cursing and beating her, while Xu Yi pretended to be a pitiful figure betrayed by his wife. It was at this moment that Nan Ya saw Zhou Luo pushing his way through the crowd. Hearing her daughter's cries, she immediately cast a pleading look at him.

Zhou Luo understood and hugged Wan Wan, covering her eyes, and handed her over to his mother, Lin Guixiang, to take care of. Just as he was about to go back, Chen Jun stopped him in the alley, warning him not to meddle and get into trouble. Finally, the police officers arrived and dispersed the crowd.

Nan Ya's body was exposed to the spectators' mocking gazes, only Hu Yue and Jiang Bingbing, two kind girls, took off their school jackets to cover her. That night, accompanied by Zhou Luo, Nan Ya swam naked into the cold river water, questioning Zhou Luo about what he really wanted.
