Yichen looked calmly at Shi as he asked
''Will you not tell me what us wrong meimei?''
Shi looked at her brother with guilt all over her face as she told him,
''It is not that I do not wish to yell you brother but that I do not know what the hell is wrong with me!"
Yichen tried to calm his troubled little sister as he said,
"It's alright, tell me what is bothering you and then the two of us will look for a solution together. But first, answer me this, are you attracted to that Bao Yang?"
Shi looked at his brother before thinking seriously
"Brother, you do not that Yang is a heck of a guy and I guess he is handsome as well. All the females also find him sexy that is why he is regarded as the bachelor of the century right?"
Yichen grinned as he replied,
"I know all that Shi and I also know that my younger sister can not be compared to the rest of the women who chase a guy just for his looks or his bank balance. She is not on who could be swoon over just by looks, so tell me do you feel attracted to Bao Yang.''
Shi guilty nodded her head totally unprepared for the next question hurdled towards her,
"Then I fail to see the problem. You two are already a married couple, sure the two of you did skip a few steps in between but I do not think it is impossible to get to know each other after getting married "
"Brother.....that..... I...."
"What Shi, tell me what is bothering you so much that you are losing the confidence that you have in yourself. This is the first time I have seen you in such a state"
When Shi heard her brother, the tears which she was holding in before broke free as they continued spilling down her eyes like two rivers.
"Brother do I deserve this happiness. I who caused my mother's death. Do I deserve the kindness that he has shown me in the few days? Do I deserve to be looked at by those sincere eyes that hold nothing but adoration for me? Do I deserve to be held by those arms that are always ready to comfort me? Do I....."
Before she could finish she found herself in a tight embrace.
"Yes, Shi yes. You deserve all of that and many more you deserve so much more that I do not even know where to begin from.
Shi love does not see circumstances it just happens. You can command the mind but not the heart. The heart is meant to soar free and if you do decide to cage it then the only person who would be hurt will be you Shi and no one else and that is the last thing that I will allow to happen on my watch.
Shi, you deserve good things
You deserve good people in your life,
You deserve to be comfortable in your own skin,
You deserve everything you have ever dreamed for
You deserve to be happy
And one day someone will walk into your life and get it right where everyone else got it wrong.
One day you will finally meet someone who wants to help you in your life One day you will finally meet someone who isn't afraid to give love a chance
One day you will finally meet someone you can trust with everything. One day you will have your best friend, your biggest supporter and your teammate all wrapped up into one person.
And the one who notices the storm in your eyes, the silence in your voice and the heaviness in your heart is the one you need to let in.
Now go back to your husband and just do what your heart tells you to do, do not think about anything else nor about what someone else thinks
Your relationship doesn't need to make sense to anyone, except you and your partner. It's a relationship. Not a community project.
Shi nodded her head, feeling as if a huge burden had been lifted off her heart. Giving her brother a sweet smile she asked him,
"Brother actually Yang is also here, do you want to meet him?"
Yichen seemed to be thinking over it for a while after which he said,
"Well, not today?"
"Eh, why not today?''
Shi questioned him.
"Well I am not in my intimidating attire that is why"
''Intimidating attire?''
Shi asked with a question mark on her face.
''Yeah of course, I have to intimidate your husband by threatening to castrate him and ending his family line is he does anything discourteous to you. Do I not?''
Li Yanchen asked the question as if it was only right and natural for him to do it.
"Brother....."
Shi stopped before she finished what she was going to say after recognising the look on her brother's face which seemed to say,
-I am so gonna do it and not even you can stop me-.
