Mu Lingshi’s eyes became complicated when she heard Xi Xiaye’s words. She sighed, “Brother blames himself too much for this...”

“Sister-in-law, you and my brother... I know that you both knew each other under my grandmother’s arrangement, but I really think you guys are a perfect match for each other. To be honest, you’re the first person I know that my brother has taken a liking to. Brother... While he seems pretty cold, he’s a good man.”

Mu Lingshi could feel her heart aching when talking about Mu Yuchen. Things had been tough for everyone all these years because of what had happened in the past. The wounds had not healed even though she had gone abroad for several years.

“Brother’s sense of love is still like a blank canvas, so I hope you can treat him well and look after him. He’ll be sure to bring you happiness.”

Xi Xiaye was surprised that Mu Lingshi suddenly uttered this to her. She wanted to talk to her about Ah Mo, but now the topic had shifted to Mu Yuchen and her.

His sense of love is like a blank canvas?

Then, it meant...

Xi Xiaye looked at Mu Lingshi in surprise.

“Ah Mo told me that Brother has been smiling more frequently after he got married to you. We should be thankful for you. I heard about what happened to you. Don’t worry. We’ll always support you as long as you treat Brother well.”

Mu Lingshi’s tone sounded determined, and her eyes seemed genuine as she had a wide grin on her face. “I really like you. Brother hopes that we can become good friends. Do I have that honor?”

Xi Xiaye smiled as she nodded. “It’s my honor.”

Mu Lingshi’s smile grew wider, and her scar did not seem so obvious anymore. She took a deep breath as she leaned back onto the cold pole behind. “Thank you! Aside from Bro Su Chen and the others, I don’t really have many friends, and I’m delighted to have someone that I can talk to.”

Xi Xiaye was taken aback. Suddenly, she did not know what to say, but after some thought, she assured, “You can talk to me if you are troubled by anything. Someday, I’ll introduce you to Su Nan. She’s a sweet person, and the only best friend I can talk to.”

Xi Xiaye could relate well to Mu Lingshi’s situation. Her mother had passed away and she did not even know who her father was, and her brother... Moreover, she was currently in such a state.

Xi Xiaye could understand her circumstances. Although Mu Lingshi and her were both hanging in there, how could they not feel lonely like this?

Now, she finally understood why Mu Yuchen was so sure that she would like Mu Lingshi. He probably predicted she would relate to her situation and that they could click with each other since they shared similar past experiences.

She was relieved that she pulled herself together. No matter how tired she was all this year, she had never abandoned her true self. Otherwise, she would have ended her life long ago because of the military school incident, or she might even have pulled off an act of violent revenge on Xi Xinyi, then everything she had today would be non-existent.

Xi Xiaye, you’re still one lucky girl. Fate didn’t abandon you. What you’ve gone through before brought forth what you have today. Maybe you should still be thankful for fate!

Mu Lingshi started laughing when she heard Xi Xiaye. “No wonder my brother said you’re silly. You don’t even know me well and you want to introduce me to your best friend? Aren’t you afraid that I might be a bad person who’s just skilled at acting?”

Startled for a moment, Xi Xiaye then replied, “I believe that people he regards highly must be exceptional, and they must be good people.” Her tone was serious.

Mu Lingshi’s laughter got louder. “Sister-in-law, I noticed that you sure are pretty cute. I bet my brother must always tease you. However, he should be impressed by how trusting you are!”

“What about you? And Ah Mo...?” Xi Xiaye tried to slip in the question.

The smile on Mu Lingshi’s face faded slightly after Xi Xiaye asked her that. However, it was unlike the bleak tone she had before. “Things can’t go back to what it was like in the past for us anymore. I know what you guys are thinking about. What’s happened has happened. Just like the scar on my face, it’ll be with me forever and I’ll never be able to wipe it off.”

Xi Xiaye’s heart sank when she heard Mu Lingshi.

Undeniably, that was the truth, just like how she had been unable to move on from her past back then.

“I know how you feel, but I can see that Ah Mo really cares about you. Sometimes, it’s not so bad changing to a new lifestyle. Back then, when I just got married to your brother, my mother told me that at this point in my life, I should accept it when the feelings come...”

Xi Xiaye took a pause and a deep breath. “It was really tough to find someone who you like and who will treat you well at the same time. External factors aren’t what’s limiting you. It’s your own concern that’s limiting you. Life is short. We’re going to get old if we don’t love now. Be brave and wild.”

“Just like how I’d say to my mother. I’m sure you know about her condition with my father. I really hope you and Ah Mo don’t miss out on each other. It’s up to you whether you want to lead a good life.”

Xi Xiaye then suddenly stood up, turning her head around to look at Mu Lingshi who had a mixed expression on her face at the moment. She smiled.

“I told your brother that the way Ah Mo looked at you is like how Father looks at Mother. I think that he must really love you. If you’re willing to let go of your past and accept him, I’m sure many years later, you two will become like Father and Mother.”

Xi Xiaye left those words for her as she walked past her in the sunset. Her words were like the wind that breezed through the bamboo forest, revealing a dark spot within Mu Lingshi’s heart.

Life is short. We’re going to get old if we don’t love now. Be brave and wild.

Mu Lingshi repeated this sentence to herself. For a brief moment, she could feel her eyes tearing up while her chest felt heavy, and a bitterness surfaced.

She blinked hard and sucked a deep breath. In the end, she just suppressed all the feelings she had.
