  Nan Zhi did not stay for breakfast, nor did she wait for Mu Sihan to come downstairs. Given the awkward atmosphere, she went straight to the broadcasting station.

  But even when she got to work, she remained distracted for most of the day. It was clear that the old lady did not want her to be with Mu Sihan.

  In the afternoon, Nan Zhi received a call from Mu Sihan.

  It was the first time he had taken the initiative to call her after she had found out about his illness.

  After Nan Zhi answered, the man on the other line was silent for some time. Just when Nan Zhi thought he was not speaking, he spoke in his low and husky voice, “Let’s meet somewhere tonight and have a good talk!”


  Since Nan Zhi wanted to have a good talk with him for a long time already, naturally she did not refuse.

  “Okay.”


  “I’ll send the address to you after I’ve let Wei Lin book the restaurant.”


  “Okay.”


  After ending the call, Nan Zhi’s lips that were pursed tightly the whole day, finally loosened and lifted slightly.

  After work, Nan Zhi went back to her apartment.

  She took out all her clothes from the wardrobe to pick an outfit.

  Auntie He came in with freshly squeezed fruit juice and saw that the bed was full of Nan Zhi’s clothes. She smiled and asked, “Xiaozhi, you have a date with Mr Mu tonight?”


  Nan Zhi picked up a long pastel pink dress. “Yes.Auntie He, what do you think of this one?”


  “Xiaozhi you’re beautiful and tall. You look good in everything you wear.”


  Nan Zhi took another skirt and put it over herself to see if it matched, a smile on her face. “Auntie He, you’re making fun of me.”


  Nan Zhi eventually picked out a short orange sleeveless dress and her face was enhanced with exquisite makeup that made her features even more beautiful. Her long brown curls were swept over to one shoulder like soft clouds.

  Nan Zhi went out in a good mood after drinking the fruit juice prepared by Auntie He.

  Mu Sihan had already sent her the address of the restaurant and she arrived at the restaurant in about half an hour later.

  It was a private room.

  Nan Zhi went in and ordered a glass of lemonade.

  She was full of anticipation but as time passed, she became restless as the man who was never late still had not arrived.

  She called him but could not get through.

  When the waiter came in again to ask if Nan Zhi wanted to order, she stood up and left the room.

  She got into the car and was about to call Mu Sihan again when an unknown number called in.

  Nan Zhi picked up the call suspiciously.

  “Is this Miss Nan?” The voice of the old lady sounded from the other line, “I’d like to meet you.”


  The old lady was Mu Sihan’s grandmother and an elder. Since she had given her a call, Nan Zhi had no reason to refuse.

  She wanted to help Mu Sihan get over his demons. If the old lady did not like her, it would put Mu Sihan in a difficult position.

  The old lady planned to meet her at a slightly concealed private clubhouse in Ning City.

  She could not be dressed too brightly to meet the old lady so Nan Zhi went back to the apartment to change.

  When she arrived at the clubhouse, the old lady was already there. She was sitting beside the tea set, boiling and making tea.

  Perhaps it was because her health was deteriorating, the old lady really did not look too well.

  Seeing Nan Zhi had arrived, she looked up and smiled at Nan Zhi, her expression composed and kind.

  “Take a seat.”


  Nan Zhi sat opposite the old lady and took the cup of tea she handed to her, and smiled gently. “Thank you, Old Madam.”


  After Nan Zhi had finished drinking the tea, the old lady filled it up for her. “Xue’er went missing and Sihan went to look for her.”


  Nan Zhi’s hand that was holding the teacup shook and the hot tea splashed onto the back of her hand. She hissed and put down the teacup, quickly wiping it with a paper napkin. “Sister Xue’er is missing again?”
