109 Yan Qing Yu's Sorrow (1)

"What? Why aren't you saying anything? Too guilty to even utter a word?" Yan Qing Yu continued. Aki and Mamoru sighed helplessly while Zi Jue's gaze hardened. Yan Qing Shan couldn't bear the embarrassment any longer so she decided to come down and show herself.

"He doesn't need to say anything. I'm not a fragile glass nor am I the kind of person to want those tedious, fancy dates that you speak of, brother." Yan Qing Yu's head snapped in her direction. His gaze contained a flurry of mixed emotions. There was surprise, maybe at her sudden entrance, then joy, pride, and... pain.

Yan Qing Shan was surprised at the spectrum of emotions that she could read from him. Well, it was not just Yan Qing Yu. The same goes with all the people she encountered in this second life. Old ones that she knew from the forgotten past, and ones that she had met in this new present.
