âItâs fine as long as you understand.â Wen Yu smiled and continued talking as if no one else was around. âNan Xian would only fall in love with that kind of plump girl if he was blind. After youâre married into the family, nobody would beat you given that youâre so beautiful. Even if his wife is the one from Shen Yue Manor... At least, we could also have the same status as the Mu family. We could do what they can too.â
Qin Feiâer smiled softly. She did not say anything more. She raised her head as she wanted to look for Qin Chen. It was only then she realized that that youth had left without saying goodbye. She felt dejected.
âFeiâer, Qin Chen is just a white-eyed wolf. You donât have to treat him so well. Look at how he treated you just now!â Wen Yu was quite angry seeing how Qin Feiâer cared about Qin Chen.
Qin Feiâer laughed bitterly. âAfter all, weâre the one who has treated him badly first. Itâs normal if he hates us... Moreover, now that I can be married into the Mu family and heâs back too...â
âQin Chen mustâve said that out of anger.
âHe must care about me as his elder sister in his heart.
âIf not... he would not have rushed back home immediately after hearing the news of my deteriorating health.â
âBut, that boy...â
âMother.â Qin Feiâer held Wen Yuâs hand. âHave you forgotten what you have promised me? We need to treat him better this time. We cannot treat him harshly anymore. Donât ever give him food which has gone bad. Our Qin family is not that poor.â
Wen Yu was infuriated. âIâm angry just by looking at his face. Our Qin family raised him but he always seems so cold and distant. It feels like weâre the ones who are indebted to him.â
âMy younger brother is born like that. He is always cold and distant. Donât you know that? He treats everyone the same. He doesnât only treat us like that. He wonât change even if he marries a wife someday. Why are you bothered about those things?â
Wen Yu opened her mouth while looking at Qin Feiâerâs unsatisfied face. But, she did not say anything in the end.
âItâs fine. Iâll forgive him because of you.â
Qin Feiâer smiled and sighed softly.
Qin Chen was withdrawn since young. He had been in the Qin family for so long yet, she had never seen him smile even once.
She just did not know whether anyone in this world could make him smile.
âMaybe... there might not be one.â
She was the closest to Qin Chen and she could not even warm his heart. Let alone the others!
If there was someone like that... she might not be able to accept that either.
***
Qin Chen returned to his room and took out a jade hairpin from his sleeves.
He had taken it from Feng Ruqingâs jewelry box when he left.
Hence, it was like she was still there by his side.
âXiao Qing... I donât have any other relatives in this world. I only have you.
âSo, Iâll definitely protect you even if I have to sacrifice everything.â
âNobody will be able to hurt the people you love!
âIâll be your sword and kill everyone you hate. Iâll kill each and every enemy for you.
âSo, I must become stronger!
âI want to so powerful that nobody can destroy your happiness!â
The youth looked out of the window.
His cold face was warmed by the sunlight.
His smile was clear and bright like the sun.
He was no longer withdrawn and cold.
There was someone who could warm the frozen sun after all.
There was also someone who was the sunlight in his heart, making his grief go away.
