  However, she understood that the person to give him warmth in the future would no longer be her. It would be Xue’er as she stood by him through the ups and downs.

  When she heard the Old Madam’s last request, she had already guessed that it would be this sort of an ending.

  No matter what, it would be fine if he could be happy.

  Because, her heart really ached for him after she read his diary.

  She would let him go……

  Mu Sihan’s hands that were resting by his sides clenched into tight fists as he stared at Nan Zhi’s disappearing figure in the rain.

  He picked up the umbrella on the floor after a long time, while glancing imperceptibly towards the dense woods at the same time.

  The person there had left silently when Nan Zhi had left as well……

  Time passed not too slowly, but not too quickly either. At the same time, it was though it had stopped, yet the sands of time continued to flow.

  Nan Zhi left the manor with Xiaojie and moved into Renxin Hospital once more.

  Xiaojie did not know what exactly happened between Pretty Zhizhi and Daddy. At first, he thought that the two of them were just arguing and would make up after a while. However, now that he was chased out of the manor was well, it seemed like Daddy did not want Pretty Zhizhi and him anymore.

  Xiaojie was down for a few days, however, he had been brought up by Nan Zhi to be positive and happy. His mood slowly brightened, especially since Uncle Gu Sheng and Uncle Qiao Yanze visited him from time to time after he moved back into the hospital.

  This morning, when Nan Zhi walked out from the bathroom after washing up, Xiaojie was sitting by his bed as he swung his small legs. “Pretty Zhizhi, I’ve already agreed to Uncle Qiao bringing us to the ski resort later to play!”


  Nan Zhi froze a little, “You’ve been rather close to him recently. Nan Xiaojie, one moment you like Uncle Gu Sheng and the next, you like Uncle Qiao. You can’t be too indecisive as a person.”


  Xiaojie pouted his pinkish lips. “Uncle Gu has been busy with work recently, while Uncle Qiao is always free. He said that he would come over everyday to play with me and that it was more interesting than picking up girls!”


  The corners of Nan Zhi’s lips twitched. “I think that you should keep a distance from him in the future, you’ve already learned some bad things from him!” Xiaojie was still so young, how would he know what ‘picking up girls’ meant?

  “Pretty Zhizhi, I actually know that Uncle Qiao wants to chase[1.woo] you!” Xiaojie smiled brightly and continued, “However, you can’t accept him. You’ve finally gotten rid of bad Daddy, you should only belong to me in the future!”


  “Tsk, what are you saying about me again?” A devilish-looking man who was wearing a flowery shirt walked into the ward. Other men would often look weird if they wore flowery shirts, but it suited this man perfectly.

  Indeed, people who looked good would look good no matter what they wore.

  Qiao Yanze would buy a bunch of toys for Xiaojie everyday and Nan Zhi furrowed her eyebrows when she saw a new set of toys in his arms. “Mr. Qiao, please stop spending more money on Xiaojie.”


  Qiao Yanze lifted his eyebrow carelessly, “How am I spending a lot when this bit of money is nothing to me? I can even buy an entire toy shop for Xiaojie if he likes it.”


  He was doing it again!

  What did he want from being so nice to Xiaojie and her for no reason?

  Qiao Yanze glanced at Nan Zhi, noticing that she had lost a bit of weight. He nagged unhappily, “Women really don’t look good when they’re too thin, there’s nothing on their chest. Did you give your food to the dogs?”


  The words this person said sometimes really weren’t nice at all.

  “Hurry, I’ve already ask Junyuan about it. He said that Xiaojie’s condition is stable, so we can bring him out to see the colorful world.”


  Xiaojie was a child after all, and was extremely elated at hearing that he could go out to have fun……

  Yi Fan came into the room after knocking. Glancing at the man who was inhaling and exhaling smoke too quickly to be normal, Yi Fan walked forward and said softly, “Young Master, I heard from Junyuan that Young Master Qiao is bringing Miss Nan and Young Master Xiaojie to see the snow at H City.”


  Mu Sihan’s gaze darkened. “H City?”


  “Yes.”


  Mu Sihan did not say anything. He merely took a few more puffs of smoke before he changed the topic of conversation, “How’s the investigation going?”


  “For now, we’ve only found out that the Old Madam had been rather emotionally unstable a week before her death. The butler at the Mu manor said that the Old Madam often had nightmares and would jerk away. She would then cry silently, saying that Miss Xue’er was so pitiful that she had no one to take care of her after she left……”


  Mu Sihan tapped the cigarette into the ashtray, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes. The Old Madam had never acted like this in the past.

  “Have you sent the Old Madam’s incense burner for checking?”


  Yi Fan nodded, “I’ve sent it for checking, but there were no abnormalities.”


  “Investigate more thoroughly.” There was definitely someone behind playing tricks when things were out of the ordinary. It definitely was not something as simple as a heart attack behind the Old Madam’s death.

  He just needed to uncover it……

  After Yi Fan left the study, a thin figure entered softly not too long later.

  Xue’er walked behind Mu Sihan, hugging his arm as she looked up at him. She wore light makeup on her beautiful face, and it made her look more radiant under the light. “Ah Han, it’s been a while since we went out together on a trip. You used to say that you would bring me to see the snow, can we go together this weekend?”


  Mu Sihan’s aloof expression remained unchanged. He stared at Xue’er’s bright and pure eyes for a while, before he nodded slightly, “Where do you want to go to see snow?”


  “Probably H City.”


  Ever since Grandma had passed away, his emotions had been down. She could not read his inner thoughts, and she did not want to put all her hopes in having him agree to go on the trip.

  He pursed his lips, only saying one word, “Okay.”


  Xue’er widened her eyes slightly, as the sparkle in her eyes brightened. A bright smile bloomed on her face, while her long eyelashes curled slightly. When she smiled, she was extremely pretty and charming.

  Many men would feel their heart beat faster when she smiled. However, the eyes of the man in front of her remained dark, like a puddle of murky water that no one could ever touch……

  When Nan Zhi, Nan Xiaojie and Qiao Yanze landed, it was already evening.

  The air in H City did not have the smell that Ning City had. It was a lot fresher without the industrial pollution.

  The three of them sat on the vehicle that came to pick them up to take them to the hotel they were staying at.

  Qiao Yanze had arranged the hotel accommodations. He said that it was not expensive, and Nan Zhi had paid him half of the money required for the booking. However, Nan Zhi only realized that they were staying at a 7-star luxury hotel when they arrived.

  The three of them were about to walk into the lobby with gold and sparkling walls, when a long luxurious sedan stopped next to them.

  Both Nan Zhi and Xiaojie were slightly surprised when they saw the couple that got off from the car.

  Xiaojie almost called for his daddy instinctively, though his small eyebrows furrowed together when he saw Xue’er next to his daddy.

  What aunt?

  She was his girlfriend, alright?

  He did not know what type of taste his bad Daddy had. His Pretty Zhizhi was way, way prettier! A million times prettier!

  Mu Sihan walked in front of Xue’er. The temperature in H City was a lot lower than that of Ning City. He was wearing a dark gray v-neck knitted shirt, which shaved off the sharpness on him, making him look more handsome and charismatic. Just a look at him would make one’s heart thump nonstop.

  He wore a pair of black sunglasses, with his deep eyes hidden behind the dark lenses to the point it was hard to see them at all.
