"Get some rest, sister," I said aloud, pulling her out of her thoughts. "You've had a rough night. We'll talk more later."
With that, I turned to leave the room, leaving her to her questions—and the unspoken tension between us. The kiss, the darkness, the mystery of the man who saved her... it all remained unspoken.
But for me, that was precisely how I liked it.
As the door closed behind me, I smirked once more. "Let's see how long it takes for her to put the pieces together."
As the door clicked shut, I leaned against the wall outside the room, a satisfied grin still playing on my lips.
The interplay of confusion and intrigue swirling around my sister was almost intoxicating. Yue Linxi... her name itself was a melody, but today, it was wrapped in an air of mystery and tension that made her even more captivating.
Inside, I could only imagine the thoughts racing through her mind.
