Xu Yisen gently inserted the peach blossom hairpin into Munni’s neatly coiled long hair.
The woman in the mirror was gentle and beautiful, like a delicate peach blossom blooming slowly in the spring sunshine, exuding a subtle fragrance.
"Would you come back?"
His simple four-worded question carried an indescribable sincerity and longing.
Qin Muni’s heartstrings were lightly touched, and she lowered her eyes in panic to hide the emotion in them from Xu Yisen.
"I am waiting for you to come back."
Come back, return to my side again.
As soon as Xu Yisen finished speaking, his phone began buzzing in his pocket.
He paused for a second before reaching to take out the phone and frowned subtly after checking the caller ID, but he didn’t answer the call. He hung up directly and returned the phone to his pocket.
At this moment, Qin Muni was watching the dressing mirror, witnessing all the expressions and emotions on his face clearly and guessed who the caller was.
Her left hand formed a tight fist where Xu Yisen couldn’t see, as if restraining a strong emotion.
She reached out her right hand to remove the peach blossom hairpin from her hair and placed it on the dressing table, then untied the long hair that Chen Yaxin had just styled for her.
"The marriage between you and me was a mistake. Now that we are finally divorced, let’s not continue to make mistakes. Xia Yuge is more suitable for you, you should choose her."
After uttering the final word, she quickly stood up from the chair and left without looking back.
Xu Yisen was left standing there, his deep eyes flowing with a hint of bewilderment.
Chen Yaxin returned after leaving for a while, only to find Munni was already gone, so she politely asked Xu Yisen: "Sir, would you still want this hairpin?"
"Yes, please wrap it up for me."
"Alright, please hold on a moment."
By the time Xu Yisen finished paying and walked out of Tenghua Building, Munni was no longer in sight.
He took his phone out of his pocket intending to call Munni, but suddenly a text message from her appeared on the screen.
[Yisen, I suddenly remembered that I must visit a professor living in Rongyun Town. You should go back, and thank you for having breakfast with me. — Qin Muni]
Xu Yisen held the phone tightly in his hand, the bag in his left hand containing the peach blossom hairpin he wanted to give her, but unfortunately, today there wasn’t a chance to present it to her.
A professor from Munni’s university moved to Rongyun Town after retiring.
Therefore, after leaving Old Student Lane, she took a bus to visit the professor, and due to the warm invitation from the professor and his wife, she stayed there for two days before returning to G City.
As she hadn’t driven to Rongyun Town last time, but took Xu Yisen’s car, she chose to take a bus back.
She found a seat by the window after boarding the bus, took out sunglasses and earphones from her bag, then immersed herself in her own world, emptying her mind and ignoring the people and things around her.
She didn’t know how long she had been sitting when the bus finally slowly pulled away from the station.
The bus had only been moving for less than two minutes when Munni felt the person beside her reaching out a hand towards her.
In the next moment, someone took the earphone out of her left ear.
Instinctively frowning, she turned to look at the person beside her.
The other person also wore black sunglasses, obscuring their eyes from her view, but she noticed a gentle and elegant smile forming on their thin lips.
The earphone that was in her left ear was now in the left ear of the other person.
"It’s been so long, yet your taste in music hasn’t changed."
