“No, what’s there to be sure about? There’s nothing between me and him!” Shi Xiu stubbornly said as she subtly reached out to wipe her tears away.

Yun Nan turned to look into the distance. There was no need to ask Shi Xiu any more; her reaction says it all. Yun Nan stated, “Fate is a magical thing. It’ll be forced on you whether you’re willing to accept it or not. In the past, I’ve also wondered why I’m not my adopted parents’ real daughter and why, on top of that, did fate give me parents that didn’t love me despite giving birth to me? If only I were my adopted parents’ biological daughter, I would willingly bear everything.”

She continued, “However, being humans, it is impossible for our lives to only be smooth sailing and a bed of roses. Some people come into our lives to bring us happiness and wonder, while others are destined to cut a pound of flesh from us and leave a scar from the moment they appear.”

Yun Nan looked at Shi Xiu as she finished slowly, “But pain will heal with time, and the scar left behind is just a memento.”

Shi Xiu’s tears had dried. She stared at the night sky and didn’t speak. Yun Nan reached out and hugged her.

“Yun Nan,” Shi Xiu choked. Yun Nan patted her back and said nothing.

“Hey, the Shi family’s eldest young master is back!” someone outside shouted.

Yun Nan and Shi Xiu turned their heads in unison to see for themselves. Shi Ke steadily walked in, dressed in a well-ironed suit, followed by his subordinate, the impassive Gray Wolf.

Shi Xiu took a step forward but stopped, hesitating. Yun Nan gently took her arm and returned to the great hall with her. Shi Ke was greeting everyone.

“I came late because of a mission,” he answered one person. “It’s my brother’s wedding. I have to rush back no matter how busy I am.”

“Xiang Yang is overseas participating in an exhibition. Her flight was delayed, so she didn’t make it back in time,” he told another.

“Yes, yes. As long as I’m free, I’ll come back to visit everyone.”

A group of relatives and friends surrounded Shi Ke, enthusiastically spouting pleasantries and polite chit chat. He extricated himself from their encirclement with some difficulty and smiled faintly when he saw his younger sister. His eyes were filled with heartache as he opened his arms to her.

“Bro,” Shi Xiu cried and threw herself into her brother’s arms. The scene of the adoring big brother giving his sister a big hug was an extremely heartwarming one.

“Silly girl, don’t cry. It’s all in the past,” Shi Ke whispered near-inaudibly in Shi Xiu’s ear.
