I Am Ji Zitong (3)

"Perhaps she wasn't willing to bring up the past again. Her best friend did leave suddenly. This is a sorrowful thing for anyone. I hope that this time, I'll be able to meet her and find out something from her."

Xi Xiaye stayed silent for a while. Then, she put a hand on his shoulder. With a deep breath, she consoled, "So, we'll just do our best. Lingshi has been looking for this answer too. I believe that everything will become clear to us very soon."

"You're quite optimistic. It's something that has been silent for 20 to 30 years now. Do you think that it could all be explained so quickly? If it truly could, then it wouldn't have waited until now when the matter is still foggy. However, with this attitude of yours, it's worth encouraging no matter what. We'll see how this goes. You should be happy with this Ji Zitong since Ah Mo praises her highly too. From now on, whenever I'm not by your side, she must follow you closely."
