After an embarrassing lunchti, which forever changed Li Caiyi's image, she felt that sothing was gradually changing inside of her. Previously, she was so lost about everything, but now she felt like the mist in her head had gotten clearer.
It was amazing how a small gesture of encouragent could give a person trendous strength and courage.
Li Caiyi vaguely recognized her mistake in her past life and reflected on it a lot. She should have sought outside help when she couldn't get it from inside. The world is vast with limitless possibilities. Even if your close ones didn't acknowledge you, soone else would if you reached out to them.
Li Caiyi wasted her whole life just to learn about this one obvious fact; she felt pathetic. Sotis the answer has always been in front of you, but if you closed your eyes and ears for everything, of course you wouldn't notice it.
At first, it was only Shen Qiang, but then she t Zhou Ya, Chen Ruolan, and Feng Nian. The number of people who acknowledged her increased, and she couldn't help but wonder if there were actually more people out there. People who always had her in their eyes, but she was too blind to notice them.
Li Caiyi caressed her phone screen and fondly smiled when she saw the contact list of her three new friends. She swore she would treasure them forever.
"Xiaoyi, what are you doing?"
Li Chunhua's sudden appearance snapped her out of her daze. Li Caiyi put down her phone and smiled at her. "Nothing. Have you finished your howork?"
Li Chunhua pouted. "I'm done already, but you barely make any progress. Daddy would scold you again if you don't focus, you know?"
"Sorry. I'll finish them now."
Li Chunhua folded her arms on top of the table and propped her chin with it as she looked up at her twin sister. "Xiaoyi, you seem to be in a good mood today. Did sothing good happen?"
"I'm the sa as usual, though?"
"No, you aren't! You can fool anyone else but ! Spill it out. Who made you so happy like this? Is it Shen Qiang again?!"
Li Caiyi sighed. "No, it isn't. Xiaohua, I'm doing my howork now, don't bother ."
Li Chunhua pursed her lips sulkily. "You have a new friend, so you don't need anymore. Humph, I see. Then just play with your friends from now on."
How did it beco like that? Li Caiyi knew that Li Chunhua was a willful one, but her older version had gotten a lot milder than her teenage version was. She has always looked at her sister with her adult version in mind, forgetting that this Li Chunhua was the sa, yet different from what she rembered. This disparity made her feel disoriented.
"Don't say that. It wasn't easy for to make a new friend. I'm not like you, who are friendly and bright."
"Xiaoyi! You don't even try to coax like you always do! That's it! Where does Shen Qiang live? I need to talk to him."
"You're speaking nonsense again. It has no relation to Shen Qiang or anyone. I just think that it's about ti I change."
Li Chunhua stopped moving, and her expression turned serious. "Change? Why do you need to change? Xiaoyi is already good the way she is. Did soone say sothing about you? Just tell who it is, and I'll scold them for you!"
Li Caiyi's pen also halted when she noticed Li Chunhua's change of tone. She thought that this was a chance to clarify things with Li Chunhua, so she put the pen down and stared at the very similar face in front of her.
"Xiaohua, we're not kids anymore. I realized that the way I do things all these tis isn't good, so I intend to change. I might not be able to be with you as often, but you are my precious sister, and I'll always be by your side when you need ."
Li Chunhua cast her gaze downward. Li Caiyi couldn't guess what she was thinking from her hooded expression, so she continued, "Your body has gotten a lot better now, so you won't need around as much. We are twins, so we are closer to each other than anybody was. Even if we beco busy with our businesses from now on, we will always have each other in mind."
The air in the room stagnated after she finished talking. Li Chunhua was silent throughout her talking, and it gave Li Caiyi a weird, uneasy feeling.
A few seconds later, Li Chunhua raised her head with a big smile on her face. "So it's like that. I agree with Xiaoyi. We are slowly becoming adults, so we can't beco too dependent on each other anymore."
Li Caiyi heaved a sigh of relief. It seed Li Chunhua had taken the news pretty well.
Previously, since Li Chunhua was very close to her, she couldn't bring it in herself to tell her she wanted so space for herself. Li Chunhua has always been popular even without trying, but Li Caiyi was different. By the ti she realized she was alone, it was all too late. She was too preoccupied with unnecessary worries that she lost sight of what she needed the most.
This ti, she wanted to claim her own self righteously. She had spent her previous life solely for others, so it was okay if she was a bit selfish in this life, right?
"Xiaohua, I know you will understand." Li Caiyi felt soone had lifted a heavy rock from her heart, so she reached out and clasped Li Chunhua's hand in hers gently. "Make no mistakes. No matter what happens, you are still my most important person. Thank you for understanding ."
Li Chunhua smiled brightly. She wrapped Li Caiyi in a gentle embrace as she giggled. "Xiaoyi is always so serious about everything. That goes without saying. You are my most important person, too."
Li Caiyi was worried for nothing. In the end, it was all her fault that everything in her previous life had gone ssy. If only she had acted more decisively, her fate wouldn't have ended so miserably like that.
Now that Li Chunhua had understood her point of view, she could face her properly starting from now. Everything would be okay between them.
Li Caiyi was too busy basking in the sense of relief, and she didn't notice Li Chunhua's smile gradually faded and was replaced by coldness. However, when Li Caiyi looked up at her, she would revert to her previous cheery self, as if the dark and dangerous gleam in her eyes now was just an illusion.
