“I know, I will definitely not let you down!” Ye Mo nodded, appearing to be serious and earnest.
After Ye Ling put the plate of fruit on the table in the room, he went downstairs with Liu Duo and Ye Mo.
When Ye Liu saw Liu Duo, he was like a bee that saw a flower and quickly went over to her.
“Little Duo, Aunt Ye asked me to bring back a lot of delicious food for you. She will come to visit you another day when the sky is clear.”
Liu Duo looked over and saw there were eggs, dates, and oranges. However, most of them were sweet snacks.
“How can I have her come over to visit? I will go visit her another day,” Liu Duo said with a smile.
Aunt Ye was not young. Even if the sky cleared, the road would not immediately dry up and she was still quite worried about that.
What if she fell down accidentally?
Ye Ling said in agreement, “I will accompany Duo Er there another day.”
In regard to this, Ye Mo suggested, “The five of us should go together another day! It feels like we haven’t visited Aunt Ye together for quite some time.”
They pretty much always visited Aunt Ye separately from time to time.
“Okay, I will tell Yang later.” Ye Liu agreed.
…
In the capital.
Dongfang Ming closed the ledger he was reading and went over to the window to look at the bustling street. His train of thought suddenly drifted somewhere far away.
His heart always felt a bit empty and at the same time, he kept thinking about a person he wanted but couldn’t have!
Recently, he already figured out his own heart. He didn’t know when he started to think about Liu Duo in such a way.
However, he was very sure she was the person he had been thinking about and waiting for all these years!
And on the other side of the street, inside a grand building that was of a similar height…
Wang Xiangyun was also standing by the window. She stared blankly at the building Dongfang Ming was in. Ever since she’d returned to the capital, she had been here and she didn’t go home.
She was originally a youthful beauty who was unmatched in her generation. However, after she went through an extremely bad experience, she became so thin that she didn’t look human.
Both her eyes looked empty and soulless, her face was sunken and white. Her slender hands had become all skin and bones.
Little Tian stood not far away and looked at her lady as she became thinner and thinner every passing day, feeling utter pain in her heart.
She gathered her courage, turned around, and left the room.
She could not let her lady continue to torment herself!
Wang Xixuan went everywhere to get news of his little sister. He’d already gone over to Dongfang Ming countless times but he just could not get any news of her. He was so anxious that he was almost about to cry.
“Young master, young master, quickly go and advise my lady. She keeps refusing to eat or drink and it makes me so anxious…”
Little Tian searched for a long time and finally found Wang Xixuan where he usually hung out.
When Wang Xixuan heard Little Tian’s voice, he immediately turned his sights on her.
He asked anxiously, “What happened to Yun Er? Where is she now? Why didn’t you guys go home?”
In his head, the words Little Tian said kept on repeating. Yan Er keeps refusing to eat or drink, refusing to eat or drink, refusing to eat or drink…
“Lady and I have been staying at the Mingyun Building all this while.”
Mingyun Building?
He’d gone there many times, and every time he went there, he saw the main entrance was locked so he assumed there was no one there. He never would’ve thought his little sister was actually inside.
How could he forget there was a back door?
Wang Xixuan felt annoyed and slapped himself. He muttered to himself, It really is true that the more anxious a person is, the more stupid he becomes!
He then frowned and said, “Let’s go. Bring me to see Yan Er! Also, tell me thoroughly where you guys went and everything that happened!”
When Little Tian heard him, she lowered her head and didn’t utter a word.
How could she possibly tell him?
