She did not expect Lu Yan to leave without even saying goodbye.
Lu Yan and Qiao Fei came and left like the wind. Only Qin Chu's family of four saw them there.
It was all like a dream.
20 minutes later, Huo Mian had washed off her makeup and was now heading up in her bathrobe with a glass of wine in her hand.
She had bumped into Zhixin, who came back from going to watch the fireworks.
"Sis, happy Chinese New Year…"
"Happy New Year."
"Huh? Sis, what's the matter? Why are your eyes so red? Did someone bully you?"
"No, it's not that."
"Are those nieces of mine not being good again and made you mad?" Zhixin asked with care.
"No. It's just that as I age, I feel and understand things so much better. I always recall those sad things in the past…"
Huo Mian made up an excuse about Lu Yan. After all, Zhixin did not know about his sister's back story.
