The last touch would render everything dull, after all, it's the process that matters most.
Besides, confirming soone's identity must ultimately be approved by the person themself.
"Nuannuan and I are of course innocent now."
"Well, that's good then. You get along so well with Nuannuan as friends. You and Ming Yue have been childhood friends, so you should strive to maintain a good relationship, too. You are all the family I have left..."
Liu Rushuang's voice held a tinge of sorrow as she spoke these words. In her eyes, she truly liked Xu Musen.
However, she had been absent from ho for many years. Now that she finally had so stability and ti, she didn't expect the relationship between the two to be sowhat strained.
Xu Musen was silent for a mont.
After all, being reborn was not the sa as soul traveling; he was still Xu Musen. The matters between him and Yao Mingyue were nobody else's business.
Xu Musen slowly began to speak, "If Ming Yue encounters any troubles in the future, I will step in and help. You can rest assured about that, Auntie."
But that was the extent of it.
Yao Mingyue remained silent, the bitterness in her heart seeming to surge like a flood, yet she didn't know how to fill the void.
"That's enough. Auntie believes that you two will gradually get along better."
Liu Rushuang nodded, her face once again brightening with a smile.
Since no one had pierced through this layer of paper, there was still room to maneuver.
Perhaps it was a case of not achieving a breakthrough without breaking the old.
Just then, a figure suddenly entered through the door.
Bai Xin, in a professional suit, walked in.
The counselor?
Xu Musen was taken aback. Perhaps she knew about him skipping out on military training early?
Liu Rushuang also imdiately stood up, saying with a smile, "Let introduce her. This is my old university classmate, also my best friend. You can just call her Aunt Bai. This is my daughter Ming Yue, and this young girl is called An Nuannuan. As for Xiaosen, he needs no introduction, right?"
Upon hearing this, Yao Mingyue's gaze montarily settled on the mature woman who had suddenly appeared.
Especially as she wore a white shirt, the buttons straining across her chest...
Yao Mingyue silently looked around and contemplated how to describe the situation.
It was as if, amidst a range of towering mountains, she herself had beco a re hill.
Although she also had curves, she really could not accept it, especially considering that An Nuannuan, who was her age, was so advantaged!
"My na is Bai Xin. I'm a teacher at Hu Hai University and Xu Musen's counselor. I rember holding you both when you had just started elentary school. It's been over a decade now."
Bai Xin looked at Xu Musen and Yao Mingyue, also feeling a sense of fondness for the younger generation.
No wonder she felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity when she first t Xu Musen; he was the son of an old acquaintance.
"Hello, Aunt Bai." Now aware of the connection, Yao Mingyue temporarily set aside her worries and greeted with a polite deanor.
"Xiaoyue is getting more and more beautiful. The university's beauty forum is controversial every year, but I'm afraid there's nothing to fight over this year."
Bai Xin couldn't help but praise Yao Mingyue as she looked at her.
"Don't flatter her too much. Look how high her tail's wagging." Liu Rushuang teased.
"When a child is excellent, they deserve praise. Xu Musen, you've been quite popular lately, too; your singing is very good."
Bai Xin said with a aningful tone.
Xu Musen coughed and said, "You're too kind, Teacher Bai."
Bai Xin then turned her gaze to An Nuannuan, who sat obediently beside Xu Musen like a demure bride-to-be.
This girl often ca to the class to bring water to Xu Musen, sothing she hadn't paid much attention to before.
But looking at the current atmosphere...
Sigh, matters of the heart are indeed too complicated.
"Nuannuan, if you have any issues at school, you can co to the teacher for help."
Bai Xin said courteously.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Teacher." An Nuannuan nodded in response.
The arrival of Bai Xin made the atmosphere at the dinner pleasant and relaxed once more.
Nightti.
Xu Musen wheeled An Nuannuan along the campus paths, on their way back to the dormitory.
They were both sowhat silent, and the evening breeze was soothing.
All of a sudden, An Nuannuan looked up with her big, clear eyes and stared at Xu Musen earnestly for a good while.
"Xu Musen..."
"What's wrong?"
"You and her, you really were childhood sweethearts, huh..."
An Nuannuan's voice carried a rare emotion.
It was unclear whether it was apprehension, nervousness, or a mix of hope and disappointnt.
In any case, it was like the night wind: cool, yet wrapped with a touch of heat.
Yes, it was an emotion called fear of gain and loss...
