'Me, missing Zi Jue? Sorry, Meili dear. I'm not at that stage yet.'
Yan Qing Shan kept mum on Meili's statement and gave her a small smile instead. The girl then excused herself after seeing that she had kept her silence, taking it as cue of wanting to be left alone. She already knew that Zi Jue would be arriving later than his schedule. In the past, he had also extended his trip for another three days. It was only that Yan Qing Shan was strangely being anxious at his arrival that she couldn't help but ask about it.
Qing Shan nibbled pensively at the pastry in her hand, pondering about how she'll face Zi Jue when he arrived. She wasn't sure what to feel about him. Yes, she was willing to give them a try and she fully understands his past actions, still there was a small part in her that was irrefutably filled with fear. This was the repercussions of the years of abuse she had suffered in his hands in her past life.
