Chapter 271 - All Parting Is For A Better Reunion

Ji Yang sighed. “I don’t want to think about all these romantic mushes. It’s too much trouble. I just want to focus on my career.”

Speaking of Ji Yang’s career, Mu Siyin was still a little worried.

“Do you really want to go back to your previous post, Yangyang?”

Ji Yang immediately nodded when she heard that. “Of course! It’s easy being an anti-prostitution officer, but you know my ambition lies elsewhere.

“Besides, our head of department mentioned that our leader was angry at my unprofessionalism and wanted to punish me. It’s just a matter of time until I get to return to my previous post.”

Mu Siyin frowned slightly.

That was right. Yangyang graduated from a well-known military school and became a policewoman through various training and drills, so she would not easily give up on her childhood dream.

Yet to Mu Siyin, being a policewoman was really too dangerous.

Mu Siyin lowered her gaze and said softly, “If you really do return to your original post, I’m afraid we won’t be able to see each other so often anymore.”

Ji Yang burst into laughter. “So what? Even if we don’t see each other for a few months, we’ll still be besties and sisters forever.”

Mu Siyin lifted her gaze and nodded. “Yeah, you’re right. We will be sisters with Qiuci for our entire lives.”

Half an hour later, Xiang Qiuci came back, but Lu Jingchen was nowhere to be seen.

Ji Yang raised his eyebrows. “Has he left?”

Xiang Qiuci nodded. “Yeah.”

“Did you make things clear?”

Xiang Qiuci nodded again. “Yeah.”

“What’s his reaction?” Curiosity overtook Ji Yang’s face

Xiang Qiuci replied helplessly, “He could hardly believe that I would go downstairs with him just to reject him.”

Ji Yang pouted. “Narcissist!”

Mu Siyin asked, “Is my cousin very upset, Qiuci?”

Xiang Qiuci paused and squinted her eyes slightly. “He did look very down, but… I thought it was better to make things clear with him. Otherwise, it would do him no good if I keep giving him false hope.”

Mu Siyin nodded. “Yes, you are right.”

It was better to clear things up than leaving him guessing and causing further misunderstandings.

Xiang Qiuci walked over to the sofa before she looked at them and said, “I’ll be leaving this afternoon. Take care, guys.”

Mu Siyin felt helpless. “We know that you’re busy, but you should have more me-time in the future. Don’t tire yourself out.”

Xiang Qiuci nodded. “Okay. I’ll get more rest when I’m back next time.”

At 4:00 p.m., the people from Qiu Ci’s dance troupe came to pick her up. As such, Mu Siyin and Ji Yang sent her to the car and waved goodbye.

Ji Yang lifted her hand and placed it on Mu Siyin’s shoulder as she let out a soft sigh. “It’s just the two of us again.”

Mu Siyin chuckled. “All goodbyes are for a better reunion.”

Old Master Lu had specifically instructed Lu Jingchen to get Mu Siyin back to the Lu family within the next two days.

Since Mu Siyin had no work today, she headed to the Lu family directly from Ji Yang’s house.

Before she got out of the car, she purposely sent a message to Shi Beiyu.

[Don’t worry about me. I’m visiting my grandpa at the Lu family’s house tonight.]

Three minutes after the message was sent, Shi Beiyu called.

Mu Siyin grinned and picked up the phone. “Aren’t you busy?”

Displeased, Shi Beiyu said, “Didn’t we agree to visit him together? Why did you head back by yourself?”
