Chapter 677: Chapter 677: The Silver Bracelet in the Old House_1

The two of them strolled down the street hand in hand, and then went to a small eatery they used to frequent often, where they had a hearty al.

During the al, Lin Shan specifically asked about the black cat, and Qin Sisi honestly admitted that she was still taking care of it.

Lin Shan asked incredulously, "Does that rich man really pay you a salary every month?"

Qin Sisi had to go along with her and replied, "Yes, he does!"

Lin Shan blinked her eyes and pryingly leaned in close to Qin Sisi, "That wealthy man, he isn’t trying to court you, is he?"

To conceal her nervousness, Qin Sisi had just taken a sip of juice. But as Lin Shan unexpectedly blurted out those words, Qin Sisi nearly spat out the juice in her mouth. She forcefully swallowed it, leading to a fit of coughs. She glared at Lin Shan, both embarrassed and annoyed.

Lin Shan awkwardly laughed and patted Qin Sisi’s back. She then softly said, "I was just concerned about you!"

Finally catching her breath, Qin Sisi sighed heavily and said, "Shan Shan, I’m fine. But I think you really need to find soone to teach you so manners."

"Cough ... Look at all this food we haven’t finished, let’s eat," Lin Shan quickly changed the subject when she saw where Qin Sisi was steering the conversation.

Qin Sisi obviously wouldn’t hold a grudge, and the two of them soon started to tease each other playfully again.

Qin Sisi asked Lin Shan about why she ca back. Turns out that after Lin Ying passed away, she left an old house in the neighboring suburb. The property rights naturally shifted to Lin Shan’s na.

At that ti, Lin Shan was heartbroken and eager to leave, so she had entrusted a real estate agency to sell the house. Recently, the agency contacted Lin Shan saying the house had been sold and asked her to return to sign the contract.

Lin Shan was to et with the agency tomorrow, so today she could relax and spend ti with Qin Sisi.

Qin Sisi noticed that although Lin Shan was cheerful, the long train journey had left her tired.

So when Lin Shan proposed to continue shopping, Qin Sisi did not agree but instead hurriedly ushered Lin Shan back to her ho and insisted that she rest.

Upon seeing Lin Shan, Ye You hid in the bedroom he shared with Qin Sisi before Lin Shan had a chance to tease him.

Qin Sisi had already tidied up the guest room and changed the bedding.

Lin Shan casually flopped onto the bed, and the soft feeling beneath her was very comforting. But she still tried to act tough, "Hey, why are you being so nice to ? Do you have any ulterior motives?"

Qin Sisi was rendered speechless by this and retorted, "Yes, I want you to rest well so you can wrap things up quickly and leave my house. What if you were to fall sick from exhaustion and refuse to leave my ho?"

Lin Shan laughed heartily and said, "Well, you can just keep

then, since I don’t plan to find a boyfriend anymore."

Qin Sisi rolled her eyes and replied, "Just because you don’t want to find one doesn’t an I don’t. Don’t be a third wheel."

Lin Shan perked up again, "Do you have soone in mind?"

Qin Sisi flicked Lin Shan’s forehead playfully, twisted her mouth and said, "Can you stop being so nosy? Go and take a bath and have a good sleep."

Lin Shan was indeed tired, so she didn’t have the energy left to banter with Qin Sisi. After a quick shower, she went to the guest room to rest.

Once Qin Sisi went back to her room and locked the door, she began to practice her new magic skill called Solid as Golden Soup.

Every new skill begins with stumbling and failures. Qin Sisi was used to it by now and practiced calmly, over and over again.

In the evening, Qin Sisi prepared dinner and called both Ye You and Lin Shan to eat.

Lin Shan woke up from a nap and groggily took a seat at the dining table.

Ye You kept his head down and ate his food, trying his best to keep a low profile to avoid Lin Shan saying anything that may cause embarrassnt.

Thankfully, Lin Shan was still not fully alert. She just patted Ye You’s head as a way of greeting and after eating just a little bit, she exchanged a few words with Qin Sisi before she went back to sleep.

With Lin Shan around, it wasn’t convenient for Qin Sisi and Ye You to go out and search for ghosts, so they decided to concentrate on practicing their magic instead.

The following day, Lin Shan had to go to the agency to sign the contract with the buyer.

Qin Sisi asked her if she needed so company, but Lin Shan just laughed and said, "No need, I can handle such a small matter."

After saying this, Lin Shan left the house with her belongings.

She first went to the agency to sign the contract for selling the house. After that, she went to the old house with the buyer to sort out the items left by Lin Ying. She discarded the things that were too old and kept the ones that held sentintal value.

After tidying up, Lin Shan called a cab and hauled a big box into the vehicle.

Since the trip back to S City was going to take so ti, Lin Shan started going through the items in the box, mainly letters, cards, and so not-too-valuable crafts and jewelry.

She noticed a silver bracelet with a gentle sheen. It was sowhat dated and parts of the design had turned black with ti, but that did not detract from the bracelet’s beauty at all.

The intricate floral patterns on it matched Lin Ying’s personality perfectly. Lin Shan gently fiddled with the bracelet whilst Lin Ying’s gentle smiling face appeared in front of her eyes. A smile escaped her lips and she slowly slipped the bracelet onto her wrist, as if her sister was there with her.

When Lin Shan returned to Qin Sisi’s house with the big box, it was already late afternoon. She was tired and sweaty from the day’s activity.

Lin Shan didn’t even eat dinner, she just went to the guest room to rest.

Seeing Lin Shan in such a tired state, Qin Sisi didn’t want to disturb her, and the night passed quietly.

The next morning, after Qin Sisi had made breakfast and noticed Lin Shan had yet to wake up, she knocked on the door to the guest room.

After knocking for a while, a sluggish Lin Shan finally opened the door.

Qin Sisi looked up and was startled by the sight of Lin Shan. Worried, she asked, "Shan Shan, what’s wrong? Did you not sleep well last night?"

Lin Shan’s face was pale and she had dark circles under her eyes. Weary, she leaned against the door yawning. "Morning," she responded.

Qin Sisi felt Lin Shan’s forehead. Her temperature seed normal. She asked again, "Shan Shan, are you alright?"

Lin Shan shook her head tiredly, "I’m fine, just very exhausted. I probably overdid it in the last couple of days."

Qin Sisi grabbed Lin Shan’s hand and led her out of the room, softly saying, "First, let’s eat sothing. Afterward, you can continue to sleep."

The two of them sat down at the dining table. Ye You, having been waiting for quite a while, had finished his share of the breakfast and had gone back to his room.

Qin Sisi catered to Lin Shan, constantly placing dishes in her bowl. But Lin Shan had no appetite. With an apology, she went back to her room to sleep after eating barely a mouthful.
