The corner of his lips finally curled up but he did not see the bitter pain in Xia Ruoxin's eyes.
"Little brother, did you know that? I was the one who had been relentlessly looking for you?"
But, this time, no one would have believed her.
"Sister, this is Chu Lui and also my Brother Lui." Xia Yixuan said happily while she rested her head possessively on Chu Lui's arm.
At this point, Chu Lui's look turned from extremely grouchy to a gentle one which not many have seen before.
"Let's go." Chu Lui took Xia Yixuan's hand and walked into the Xia household. They did not pause as they passed by Xia Ruoxin, not even a step. The girl could only look and feel dumb as they passed. For a moment, her heart started to shatter.
She balled her hands into a tight grip. The faint sunlight touched her cheeks and she managed to smile slightly, albeit that smile was sad and full of misery.
