Grandma and little auntie did not believe Lu Yanchen’s words in the slightest bit—they did not think that he could have been bad to her at all. Instead, they just kept mentioning about how Shi Guang should not throw a tantrum.

The entire time, Shi Guang kept her head lowered, not knowing what to say.

After lunch, Shi Guang said she would be returning.

Right now, she really needed time to cool down. However, with Lu Yanchen here, grandma’s place was definitely not suitable for it.

Reluctant to see Shi Guang leave, grandma tried getting her to stay a couple of times, but to no avail. Left with no choice, she merely walked them down, reminding Shi Guang to take good care of herself the entire time.

Lu Yanchen drove and Shi Guang sat in front. As the car moved steadily, Shi Guang, who did not manage to have a good rest the previous night, fell asleep before long.

Each time they stopped at a red light, he would look over at Shi Guang beside him. Each time he did so, he would feel as though his heart was being gripped tightly by something.

A choking asphyxiation had him struggling, wanting to break free of it. However, there was no way to feel relaxed at all.

He wanted to hug her tightly in his embrace. Even if she were to fight back wildly like an animal, he would still hold on firmly, kissing her lips tightly and entering her body deeply.

In his mind, that was the only way he could prove that he would be beside her for all eternity unlike the way they were right now where everything was hollow.

He had a world of emotions strewn all over his heart, yet he did not know how he should speak up or from where he should pick things up from.

By the time Shi Guang woke up, they were already in the provincial city. She was awoken by Lu Yanchen’s voice on a call.

Initially, she was still somewhat in a daze, but when she made out her sister’s name hazily, she jolted wide awake instantly and looked at him apprehensively.

He merely glanced at her once before continuing the call.

After a while, he hung up on the call. Instantly, Shi Guang asked hurriedly, “Did…” they find my sister?

She did not even dare to ask outright, afraid that she might not get the answer she wanted.

Lu Yanchen’s fair complexion was both stoic and silent. He looked at Shi Guang firmly, seeming as though he was contemplating whether or not he should tell her and trying to choose the right words.

He spoke softly, “It’s about your sister.”

Shi Guang’s heart was filled with both joy and a deep unrest—she was afraid that it might be bad news. Her body clenched up as she waited with bated breath.

Her fingers were dug so tightly into her palms that her knuckles were all white. Even then, she could not assuage the uneasiness in her heart as she took a deep breath and finally asked with much difficulty, “What news is it?”

Her entire body was so strung up that her chest heaved up and down heavily, afraid that she might not be able to take the news.

“You might have guessed right that your sister has woken up.”

“Woken up? She really woke up?”

“That’s right! Someone saw her at the Capital City. She was headed for DujuanCity 1 and then disappeared. I’ve already instructed people to search for her in a wider radius. However…”

Lu Yanchen paused and looked at Shi Guang’s anticipated expression before speaking up again, “However… just because she resembled your sister may not mean that she is your sister for sure…”

Shi Guang had not recovered from her stupor for a long time. However, her eyes were filled with pain and emotions.

She looked out of the window, somewhat dazed.

Had her sister truly awakened?

Was that her sister?

After a moment, as she finally regained her sense of logic and looked at how the car was driving on a familiar sight once more as she turned to Lu Yanchen. “Send me to Mo Jin’s place. I want to have 2 days to cool down.”

Lu Yanchen did not change his course of the drive as the car stopped below their apartment before he turned to Shi Guang. “I’ll send you up and come for you again 2 days later.”
