This scene inexplicably tightened Xie Chuantang's heart, but as the past unfolded, as it was about to leave, she felt somewhat uneasy and for the first time initiated a conversation, asking the girl what the carriage was for.
The girl was also puzzled, only saying that it had suddenly stopped there, then seemed to be watching her collect dates, but when she signaled to share some, no one responded.
However, the girl soon disregarded it and, smiling, handed her a handful of red dates.
That was indeed what a fourteen-year-old girl should look like—innocent, lively, carefree... which made Xie Chuantang involuntarily project onto her the image of herself at that age.
