“No, what’s there to be sure about? There’s nothing between and him!” Shi Xiu stubbornly said as she subtly reached out to wipe her tears away.

Yun Nan turned to look into the distance. There was no need to ask Shi Xiu any more; her reaction says it all. Yun Nan stated, “Fate is a magical thing. It’ll be forced on you whether you’re willing to accept it or not. In the past, I’ve also wondered why I’m not my adopted parents’ real daughter and why, on top of that, did fate give parents that didn’t love despite giving birth to ? If only I were my adopted parents’ biological daughter, I would willingly bear everything.”

She continued, “However, being humans, it is impossible for our lives to only be smooth sailing and a bed of roses. So people co into our lives to bring us happiness and wonder, while others are destined to cut a pound of flesh from us and leave a scar from the mont they appear.”

Yun Nan looked at Shi Xiu as she finished slowly, “But pain will heal with ti, and the scar left behind is just a nto.”

Shi Xiu’s tears had dried. She stared at the night sky and didn’t speak. Yun Nan reached out and hugged her.

“Yun Nan,” Shi Xiu choked. Yun Nan patted her back and said nothing.

“Hey, the Shi family’s eldest young master is back!” soone outside shouted.

Yun Nan and Shi Xiu turned their heads in unison to see for themselves. Shi Ke steadily walked in, dressed in a well-ironed suit, followed by his subordinate, the impassive Gray Wolf.

Shi Xiu took a step forward but stopped, hesitating. Yun Nan gently took her arm and returned to the great hall with her. Shi Ke was greeting everyone.

“I ca late because of a mission,” he answered one person. “It’s my brother’s wedding. I have to rush back no matter how busy I am.”

“Xiang Yang is overseas participating in an exhibition. Her flight was delayed, so she didn’t make it back in ti,” he told another.

“Yes, yes. As long as I’m free, I’ll co back to visit everyone.”

A group of relatives and friends surrounded Shi Ke, enthusiastically spouting pleasantries and polite chit chat. He extricated himself from their encirclent with so difficulty and smiled faintly when he saw his younger sister. His eyes were filled with heartache as he opened his arms to her.

“Bro,” Shi Xiu cried and threw herself into her brother’s arms. The scene of the adoring big brother giving his sister a big hug was an extrely heartwarming one.

“Silly girl, don’t cry. It’s all in the past,” Shi Ke whispered near-inaudibly in Shi Xiu’s ear.

The worry that had been hanging over Shi Xiu was relieved by his words, but instead, turned into a sharp blade that pierced straight into her heart. She trembled, but she bit her lip to prevent the question that was on the tip of her tongue from coming out.

Shi Ke patted her back and gently supported her. He congratulated Yun Nan, who was behind her with a “Happy wedding day!” Yun Nan thanked him with a smile.

In the banquet hall where guests gathered, no one knew that under the surface of their warm smiles, the few eye contact exchanges between the Shi family mbers already told of a bloodbath.

Yun Liu’s eyes lit up when she saw Gray Wolf. Just as she was about to get up, Yun Zhang stood before her, blocking her way. “Where are you going?” he asked.

Yun Liu gave him a pleading look as she answered, “Yun Zhang, I want to go over and talk to the guy beside Big Bro Shi Ke. He saved last ti. I haven’t had the chance to thank him yet!”

Yun Zhang turned to gaze toward Shi Ke’s direction and narrowed his eyes. “Alright,” he said. “I’ll go with you.”

Yun Liu paused for a mont and bit her lower lip tightly, but she had no way to refuse him. “Let’s go,” Yun Zhang uttered as he placed an arm around Yun Liu’s shoulder—a seemingly sweet gesture, but in reality, he was holding her tightly. The two walked over to Shi Ke’s group.

“Big Bro Shi Ke,” Yun Liu greeted timidly. When Shi Ke turned around and saw her, he couldn’t help but frown slightly.

“Shi Ke, Yun Liu said that this gentleman beside you saved her before, so she ca over to thank him,” Yun Zhang told him with a smile.

Gray Wolf furrowed his brows like Shi Ke did, but his impassive expression remained unchanged. Everyone understood that Yun Liu was using the previous incident to threaten them. Yun Nan looked at Yun Liu, and her eyes darkened as a mocking expression appeared on her face.

Before any one of them could speak, soone exclaid, “Mr. Lan is here! Oh, wow, Mr. Lan is here, too!”

The crowd beca excited. So people sward forward, so moved back to make way, and the atmosphere beca lively once more. These people who didn’t know what was going on didn’t realize that the air on their hosts’ side suddenly went cold.

Shi Ke and Shi Nian glanced at each other, and the two brothers went up to Lan Long in tacit understanding.

“Happy wedding day! Congratulations, Mr. Shi, Ms. Yun!” Lan Long bead as he gave them a fist-and-palm salute.

Shi Nian and Yun Nan held hands and smiled in return. “Thank you, Mr. Lan.”

Lan Long smilingly apologized, “Sorry I’m late. It’s a pity I didn’t make it for the official ceremony.”

“It’s alright,” Shi Nian quietly replied. “My big brother just got here, too. It’s our honor you could co here today!”
