Ning Que found it rather odd that he did not see Chen Pipi or Tang Xiaotang at the back of the mountain.
After leaving the back of the mountain, he walked by the old library. He went upstairs to read and saw the Third Sister, Yu Lian by the eastern windows. He went up and greeted her. She did not know where Tang Xiaotang was either.
Were Chen Pipi and Tang Xiaotang really dating?
He smiled when he thought of that. Then, his expression darkened.
"Everybody has its own business. There is no point in worrying for others."
Yu Lian put down the brush in her hands and looked up. She said to him, "Your businesses will always be your own and only you yourself can deal with them."
It was already in the late spring. The eastern windows blocked the blazing sunlight. The winds blew through the trees outside the window. And in the distant forest, one could already hear the faint calls of cicadas.
