"Sis-in-law, what did Xiao'ai just say to you?" Chu Xiaoqiao asked Qin Xue after they had left the courtyard. She and her grandmother had seen her second brother and Luu Xiao'ai walk away from the courtyard, so she assumed they had run into her sister-in-law.
"Your second brother greeted us, and Luu Xiao'ai wished your eldest brother and me well. That's about it." Qin Xue only gave a rough overview, not going into the specifics of their conversation.
"What, she wished you well? Did I hear that right?" Chu Xiaoqiao couldn't believe what she was hearing. When did Luu Xiao'ai have such a change of heart?
"That's what she said. She's actually quite pitiful." Qin Xue thought about how Luu Xiao'ai had held onto her feelings for ten years before finally letting go. If she were in Xiao'ai's shoes, she wasn't sure she could do the same.
