Li Shen was looking at his cell phone. His son sent another photo today. Li Shan went to an amusement park with Mu Lan and two beautiful cousins. LanYing took a photo of Mu Lan hugging Li Shan from behind. They were laughing without restraint.
Li Shen rubbed over Mu Lan's face. His eyes softened. How he wished that it wasn't just a picture for him. He wanted to see her as his wife and their son.
That year, after meeting his cousin for the first time, he went back with Beijing with his father and arranged his mother's farewell. Afterward, he busied himself with work. He had a habit of writing a diary occasionally. One day, he wanted to take a break from work and began reading his diary.
He was surprised to find out about Mu Lan. He met her long before but he had no recollection of it. There wasn't much written about her. He only wrote how he felt for her. He was astonished to discover that he had such deep feelings for a woman who was his cousin.
