Yun Nan resisted the urge to facepalm at that.
Xiang Yang winked at her and said, “Sisters come before husbands.” After saying that, she looked around to see if anyone else heard her.
Yun Nan tried not to laugh as she teased, “Are you afraid Mom will hear you?” They laughed, and their relationship became even closer as they shared jokes and teased each other. The two chatted about their experiences.
Xiang Yang told Yun Nan, “I got into jewelry designing because my family is in the jewelry business. I lived with my grandmother when I was a kid and played with gems as toys. I didn’t have a good relationship with my parents; I was very rebellious when I was young. After my grandparents passed away, I was sent abroad to study. No one was there to discipline me, so I grew up wild and unruly.”
Yun Nan chuckled, “Then we have some similarities.”
Xiang Yang nodded. “I heard about your history from Shi Xiu. No matter what happened in the past, it’s behind us; we’re grown up now. What’s important is to live our lives well.”
Yun Nan smiled. “Yeah, we should live our lives well.”
“How is Shi Nian treating you?” Xiang Yang asked, concerned about Yun Nan’s marriage.
Yun Nan nodded and replied, “He treats me quite well.”
“The Shi family values relationships, and they are faithful and affectionate. Before I met Shi Ke, I didn’t believe in love at all. I mean, think about it; I can’t even trust my family’s love let alone romantic love. I’ve been in a few relationships in the past, but I was unable to put my heart into them. I didn’t feel particularly sad when I saw those men cheating on me later on, either. I was even slightly relieved and would think, ‘See, I knew things would end up like this! And then, I met Shi Ke.” Here, Xiang Yang stopped.
Her gaze fell on one of Yun Nan’s paintings. It was titled ‘ Waiting.’ It was a painting of a beautiful alley in an ancient town; the buildings were white-walled and had black-tiled roofs, and bluestone cobblestones paved the street. A young man stood tall and straight at the entrance of the alley.
Xiang Yang’s voice was low and gentle when she spoke, “When I saw this painting of yours, it immediately reminded me of Shi Ke. That’s how he is— always standing, firm as a rock, at the place where we belong, waiting for me.
No matter how my emotions fluctuate, he would be there to catch me.”
Yun Nan looked at her from the side and felt moved. Beautiful love stories were always especially touching.
