Actually, holding on was simply her being true to herself, eventually sinking into the darkness those fears, pains, and hatreds were all left behind in her modern life.
Having experienced a different life, she had let go of a lot, realizing that many things need not be difficult for her.
"You know, if you keep expecting and living through fears, hatred, and despair, you’ll never be able to move on.
When you desperately desire love from others, you imdiately lower yourself.
Why should I rely on others to love ? Can’t I love myself?
Look, a delicious hotpot or a tasty juice can make feel wonderful.
Of course, if you add a good book to that, I’d feel even more amazing."
With a smile on her lips, Bai Zhi made it impossible for the reporter to believe she had gone through those things.
"Alright, let’s change the topic, shall we? About losing weight?"
As Bai Zhi looked up, she saw the reporter was already in tears—wow, this young man does cry easily.
Bai Zhi handed him a tissue.
"Young man, wipe your tears. Why are you crying?"
The reporter was startled as he took it. The term "young man" seed to strike a chord in his heart.
He grabbed Bai Zhi’s hand, "From now on, you’re my younger sister. Co live with my family; we will all cherish you."
Bai Zhi was speechless.
Bai Zhi felt awkward; how was she to explain that calling him "young man" was just a form of address?
"That’s because I didn’t know your na, I called you ’young man.’ Besides, I’m actually quite alright—I have my loving grandfather, aunt, and friends who are always with . I’m not as pitiful as you think."
Bai Zhi felt embarrassed; how did she end up making the young reporter cry?
This was quite awkward.
"My na is Jiang Qi, I’ll be your brother from now on. Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you. Forget those other brothers of yours—ungrateful wretches."
Jiang Qi started drying his tears with the tissue. "Let tell you, I never used to cry, all the tears I’ve shed are for you. If you don’t acknowledge as your brother, I won’t accept it."
Bai Zhi remained silent.
"Don’t you think we’ve strayed off topic? Don’t forget, you’re a reporter."
Jiang Qi imdiately glanced at Bai Zhi. "Of course I know, but can’t I just like you as my sister?"
Because she had sothing he lacked.
Bai Zhi was speechless again.
"I’m sorry, but I can’t. I’m grateful to you for caring so much about , but I once promised soone that he would be the only one I’d call brother; no one else can take that place."
Bai Zhi rembered, even though they each had their own lives now, the promise she made would never change.
The person outside the room heard this and couldn’t help but smile. In reality, she was his only sister too, both in past and present lives.
"You’re so ruthless!" Jiang Qi exclaid, his eyes wide with a dejected look.
"It’s a promise, thank you, really. If you continue to cry, are we even going to continue this?"
The emotion Jiang Qi gave her was completely different.
It was warmth from a stranger.
"Jiang Qi, I hope your warmth continues forever, touching people with that wonderfully warm feeling of this world."
To let them know that there are still people in this world who are willing to treat them kindly.
Bai Zhi looked sincerely at Jiang Qi and spoke.
