Chapter 90: Sweet Life
As Yin Lingchen spoke, he saw Mu Qingran’s reddened eyes and immediately became anxious. Had he said something wrong?
Mu Qingran took a sharp breath and looked at Yin Lingchen, holding the earring in his hand. “A year and a half ago, I saved a boy. The boy was very handsome, but I never saw his true face. That night was the most peaceful night I had ever slept. But in the morning, he left without a sound. Since then, I’ve always kept him in my heart. Thinking that one day we could meet again, today… has it finally come?”
Mu Qingran raised her teary eyes and stared at Yin Lingchen. Why hadn’t she noticed such a face before?
So the flutter in her heart was also because of him.
So the illusions she had all along were not illusions.
So he had been by her side all along, but she didn’t know.
“Ranran…” Yin Lingchen hugged Mu Qingran with heartache. The word “Ranran” slipped out. For some reason…
At this moment, Mu Qingran actually… actually wanted to laugh. “Ranran?” Pfft, why did it sound so awkward coming from Yin Lingchen?
Yin Lingchen’s earlobes turned red with embarrassment. Seeing Mu Qingran happy made him happy too. After all, he was her source of joy.
However, if they continued to laugh like this, things would definitely go off track.
Mu Qingran accepted Yin Lingchen’s embrace, resting her head on his chest, and said in a low voice, “I’ve been waiting for you… for a year and a half.”
She had originally thought that when she saw him again, she would be very, very excited and would question him, doubt him.
But when the moment truly arrived, she really wanted to cherish it, afraid that with one wrong step, he would disappear again. So…
Her best friend was his sister. Mu Qingran only remembered this important problem now. Then… did he know all the secrets she had shared with Yin Lingyan all this time?
Thinking of this, Mu Qingran felt sweat break out all over her body. But the man’s words above her head made her cast aside all her doubts.
“I’m sorry.” Yin Lingchen hugged Mu Qingran tightly. The three words were spoken just like that.
Mu Qingran felt that all her long-held grievances were shattered by these three words, transforming into a single word… it was called sweetness.
…………………………
The two entered the classroom hand in hand. They had missed a class, which was considered truancy. The two smiled nonchalantly. Yin Lingyan’s eyes widened when she saw them holding hands.
Older brother, well done!! You got her so quickly.
She had originally worried that her good best friend would abandon her brother for that man from a year and a half ago. Thankfully, thankfully!!!
However, she didn’t know that her brother was that man.
Mu Qingran and Yin Lingchen were miserably called into the office to listen to a lullaby. Yin Lingyan leaned on Han Wuyu boredly. Why… with the final exams approaching, so many things had happened.
First, there was the misunderstanding between her and Han Wuyu, then being together with Han Wuyu, and finally, her older brother getting together with her best friend. These were all things she hadn’t expected, especially… being with Han Wuyu.
“There’s still a week until the exams,” Han Wuyu suddenly said. At least, in Yin Lingyan’s opinion, it felt sudden.
“Mm, what’s up?” She flipped through a book, as if the knowledge would just flow into her mind.
“Come to my place after the holiday,” Han Wuyu said. Yin Lingyan was stunned. His place? Hadn’t she just been there last night?
Sensing Yin Lingyan’s doubt, Han Wuyu added, “It’s the old house. My parents are both there. My mom said she misses you, so she asked me to bring you over to see them. What do you think?”
PS: Happy holidays, everyone.
