Chapter 604: Chapter 604: Rejoice in New Life (5 Updates)
Chu Yunping was taken aback that his own brother would speak to him in this manner.
After a mont of astonishnt, he smiled gently and reached out to pat his younger brother’s shoulder, “You’ve grown up, you’ve beco responsible, and I am delighted. I can leave the Chu Family to you with peace of mind!”
His own brother had a righteous mind and clear distinctions between gratitude and grievances, which was very good.
It was truly good.
Once, he too was such a person, acting with integrity and scorning crooked paths, but what was the result? Falling in love with such a woman, nearly losing his life to the netherworld.
“Elder brother…” Chu Yun’an choked up softly.
“But Yun’an, in life, everyone has their own path to walk. After experiencing life and death that night, and now recovering from it, I’ve thought it through carefully; I realize I have never truly done anything for my family. My decision to split from the family is final, and I won’t change my plan to manage affairs for Miss Xie!”
“Plus, have you considered, no matter who it is that becos her steward, it’s not just about going for the silver or because of the King behind her. Others might, and naturally, so would I, but perhaps there’s a slight difference, I might do it even for those two reasons, but with more purity!”
Chu Yun’an fell silent.
Only after a long while did Chu Yun’an speak, “If soday in the future, others make you choose between Miss Xie and the Chu Family, what then will you do?”
“…”
Chu Yunping withdrew his hand and looked through the door to the outside, “If it really cos to that ti, there will no longer be a person nad Chu Yunping in this world!”
The air seed to stop at that instant.
Wenlan, holding a kettle of hot water, stood outside, sowhat at a loss, but also with so resolution.
When it’s difficult to choose between loyalty and righteousness, dying to fulfill both may indeed be a good decision.
Chu Yun’an understood the intent of his elder brother, and Wenlan understood the thoughts of her young master.
Sotis, death is not terrifying, but it is the endless regret, remorse, and self-bla. In those monts, death can actually be the best way out.
“After all, for the rest of my life, each day for is a blessing, and a rebirth!”
That night, he felt life ebbing away, bit by bit vanishing, until his heart finally stopped beating, his body ceased its pain, and he truly died.
Yet, because of Miss Xie’s extraordinary dical skills and the precious dicine pill, he ca back to life…
Chu Yun’an’s eyes reddened, and only after a while did he say, “Since elder brother has made his decision, I will comply!”
Xie Residence
When Xie Zhinuan returned ho, Mu Rourou had already brought over the pastries she made by hand.
Each one small and lovely, just the right size for a single bite.
“Sister Xie, you must try and see, aren’t they delicious?” Her eyes brimd with anticipation.
“Mm!” Xie Zhinuan took a pastry and bit into it.
Sweet and delightful but not cloying, with a faint fragrance. Xie Zhinuan ate two in a row before praising, “Very nice indeed. I didn’t expect you to have a talent for making pastries!”
“Hee hee hee!” Mu Rourou laughed uncontrollably, “Actually, the ingredients were prepared by others, and the dough was also made by others, I just shaped them!”
She spoke earnestly and didn’t feel embarrassed at all.
Xie Zhinuan also smiled.
Mu Rourou’s nature was quite good; though naive, she lacked any malice.
This was only Xie Zhinuan’s current view of her. As for the future, well, they would see. At least for now, she was endearing.
After talking about paintings for a while with Mu Rourou, who then said she was going to deliver the pastries to the elders, she took her leave from Xie Zhinuan.
Xie Zhinuan watched her departing figure, smiling softly.
A girl like her should find a husband who is understanding, knows how to cherish her, without great ambitions but from a very good household to protect her.
However, such a well-rounded man is not easy to find.
