This pair of siblings allowed Ye Xuan to see another world, one he couldn't understand, let alone make sense of. He simply couldn't fathom why they seemed so happy amidst their apparently dire lives.
Dinner was hastily concluded.
Gu Xiaoxiao cleared out the attic, cluttered with miscellaneous items, for Ye Xuan to stay in. When the brother and sister retired to their respective rooms, Ye Xuan sat in the attic, his gaze lost in the bright moon through the window eaves, his eyes filled with an indescribable haze of confusion.
"I have never believed in good deeds leading to good returns, only in controlling my own destiny, not leaving it to fate. Let's see if this world really does have such kind-hearted people."
Ye Xuan slowly closed his eyes, quietly sitting cross-legged on the bed.
