Because she was worried about her sister, Shi Guang had nearly not eaten anything for an entire day. And because she was worried about Shi Guang, Mo Jin got her to take a walk outside.
They came about as a western restaurant that was rather decent in their neighborhood as Mo Jin suggested, “How about we go sit for a little while inside?”
“I think we had better forget it. I feel like going back,” Shi Guang had not returned home for two days now. Besides, she wanted to ask Lu Yanchen if he had any leads on her sister.
“Wait for me,” Mo Jin surveyed her surroundings and suddenly broke into a sprint to a small stand at the street outside. Before long, she returned and pulled Shi Guang to sit down by a bench in the neighborhood before handing something over to her. “Eat this before going back.”
Opening the packet, Shi Guang found a roasted sweet potato. Immediately, the barbequed scent streamed at her face. Along with its warm steam, it seemed exceptionally amazing.
That was a food filled with the scent of nostalgia, and Shi Guang found her eyes reddening.
“Do you remember how both of us along with Sister Feifei were roasting sweet potatoes back in the village when we were young?”
“Of course! Those were blissful times where there were no worries or concerns,” Shi Guang peeled her sweet potato and nibbled a little.
“Even though Sister Feifei is missing for now, we’ve got to lead our lives properly and must not skip our meals. I’m sure Sister Feifei would not want to see us losing our will just for her sake. Besides, you’ve got to keep fighting on for her. We’ll definitely find Sister Feifei.”
Shi Guang knew that Mo Jin was afraid she might fall ill from brooding and smiled, “Mo Jin, don’t worry… I’m fine! I believe that my sister will definitely return as well. It’s just a matter of time.”
“You believe that she’s fine as well?” Mo Jin felt a heavy burden lift off her chest. “Isn’t that great then?”
“Even though this entire incident smells fishy from the very beginning, as though someone’s planning something, I feel like they are not looking to take my sister’s life, neither are they looking to hurt her. If it was just to hurt her, there was no need for them to go about it in such a huge circle and bring my sister out from the hospital. If they truly wanted her to die or never wake up, they could have just done it at the hospital.”
“The way you analyze it makes sense too,” Mo Jin smiled, “At times, no news is the best news.”
Even though Shi Guang felt that the people who had kidnapped her sister were not out to hurt her, who would be the ones to take away someone that had already been unconscious for the past 7 years? And for what purpose?
Because of the stress level in society these days, there were more and more psychos appearing, and no one could guarantee that nothing bad would happen to her.
Shi Guang was still somewhat worried at the end of the day.
When she reached home, Lu Yanchen was not around. The moment she sat on the sofa, she fell asleep out of fatigue. However, it was a light sleep as she was stirred awake by some slight activity.
The sound seemed to be coming from downstairs.
Huo Zhan had returned.
However, because she was really busy recently, she had only managed to grab a meal with him together with Li Fangfei, and they could not get to chat properly.
Shi Guang headed down to find out that the sounds emitting forth from Huo Zhan’s place were due to construction work. She looked at Huo Zhan who was directing the renovations in surprise. He caught sight of her as well and stopped everything before walking to her. “Why are you here? Did I bother you?”
There was no place to sit in the house as everything was being moved. Shi Guang invited Huo Zhan upstairs, but he rejected her and both of them headed downstairs for a bench in the neighborhood.
Shi Guang discovered that in less than half a year, every single bit of devil-may-care attitude from Huo Zhan had disappeared. It was as though the impulsiveness and recklessness of his youth had dissipated as well.
