"I'm feeling much better." Zhou Mei said after crying for a while with the painting in her hand. It looks like the tears have been gathering right under her eyes and only managed to find their way out right now.
She seems refreshed after yielding to the torrent of tears and sadness in her heart.
But right now, there's a hint of radiant glow in her eyes, like she found the reason to keep living once more. Turning her head to Yan Yi Lian that kneeled beside her, she gave her a hug.
"Thank you, junior sister. I don't know how I would be if you didn't come to me." a feeling of gratefulness appeared in her heart. As the senior sister, how can she be oblivious about how hard Yan Yi Lian tried to stop the other fellow disciples from spreading the news they heard?
It was all done to protect Zhou Mei's fragile heart at that time. But in the end, it still managed to reach her ears.
