Chapter 024: Each Follows Their Own Path Under the Heavens

"Have you been well lately?"

Suddenly, the man's voice pulled Su Shu's drifting thoughts back to reality.

She paused, then nodded slightly, "I've been quite good."

Shen Han frowned slightly, seemingly unsatisfied with her reply, but at the same moment he couldn't articulate what made him discontented.

Years had passed since they last met, and now seeing him again, Su Shu was genuinely a bit restrained, even though facing Shen Han, she knew her heart no longer raced as intensely as before. Yet his existence had spanned her entire adolescence, that most naive time when he was her whole world.

Hate him?

Su Shu didn't know herself, the memories of the past had been mostly diluted by the tough life that followed. Besides, in the life that ensued, there was such a domineering man who forcefully intruded into her life, making her past with Shen Han feel like a dream from a lifetime ago. Meeting him now felt like revisiting a dream from her girlhood.
