The moonlight was slightly cool in the room. It shone on her face, matching her white hair. Her pretty face looked even colder and frostier. Her brows were furrowed, her expression full of resentment, and her eyes were shining quietly.

Ningguang slowly opened her eyes, looked at the hazy moonlight outside the window, raised her hand and gently stroked her cheek, only to feel a little wetness on her fingers.

She was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh, "It's true that people tend to be nostalgic when they get older. This happened so long ago.

Ningguang looked at the moonlight with her mind in a tizzy. Although she didn't know why she suddenly dreamed of the past events, for her now, it brought back different memories.

At that time, she had to do that because of some dirty things in the business. Sometimes the business world is like a battlefield, with murder and arson, and invisible dangers are the deadly ones. It is not a joke. Even she could only avoid the limelight temporarily. For their safety, she concealed it from her grandfather and Su Mo. But now think about it, maybe there was a better way.

Now it seems that this experience is really important to her.

But it is true, after all, that is home.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile bitterly, "I originally wanted to leave, but in the end I couldn't help it and wanted to take another look. I'm really hypocritical."

In fact, she did not disappear completely after saying goodbye to Su Mo. She also had the idea of ​​leaving without saying goodbye and completely cutting off contact, but when she thought of that person's stubborn character and the time they spent together, she couldn't let go for some reason.

She had already gone far away, but halfway through, she came back as if possessed by some mysterious force.

At that time, Su Mo was knocking at the door. The crying voice made him feel exhausted and conflicted. Several times he couldn't help but come to the door and want to open it, but in the end he always held back.

Because she knew that if the door was opened, perhaps it would be truly difficult to part. Even if Su Mo agreed to let him leave later, she might be worried about him and her grandfather and would take the initiative to stay.

After both parents passed away, my already lonely heart suddenly felt the warmth of home, but now I have to be separated from them. How can it be so easy to let go?

I once picked up a beam of light and returned it to the sun at sunset.

If she had never experienced that kind of warmth, she, with her introverted personality, could indeed leave indifferently. She would not feel embarrassed, but would be relieved because it was completely gone. But now that she has experienced it, leaving again would be like a heart-wrenching pain.

What people fear most is habit.

Once you get used to it, it's hard to let go and you always feel like something is missing. She is no exception.

When you have someone's company and then have to break up with them, the feeling of having to resist looking for that person is completely tormenting.

God knows how she felt when Su Mo squatted stubbornly outside the door. She was restless in the house, feeling both relieved and sad. Her heart was filled with sour and sweet emotions, like spilled sauce, and turned into a dish with mixed flavors.

It was gratifying that Su Mo did what he said, and it also reflected his status in the other party's mind.

After the relief came resentment and heartache. If he hadn't come, she could have accepted it calmly and slowly let it go. But when he came, she couldn't see him. Listening to his crying, she felt sad and blamed him for coming...

Sad that we can't see each other? Heartbroken and torn?

Ugh……

nothing more than this

After the other person leaves, just look at his or her departing back and regard it as a silent farewell.

The room was dark and moonlit, just like the night when she had a heart-to-heart talk with Su Mo. Ningguang sat on the bed in a daze. Thinking about how much time had passed, she felt that the world had changed. At the same time, certain memories slowly emerged in her mind.

Thinking back to when she left Liyue and started traveling back and forth between several countries, her business grew bigger and bigger, she met many people and made many enemies, and the dangers became more and more frequent, and there were also moments of life and death, but fortunately she got through them safely.

During this period, he did not forget to inquire about the news between the grandfather and grandson.

Whenever she was exhausted physically and mentally by these worldly affairs, she would take out these messages and read them. It could bring some comfort to her tired heart and add a bit of fun to her life.

But it’s more about having fun than just feeling different emotions.

She was worried about her grandfather's health, complained about Su Mo's incompetence, and was angry about his attitude towards Keqing. Sometimes she even slammed the table and pointed at the messages on it, then turned her head away and sulked, looking like a resentful woman in the boudoir, which was in sharp contrast to her usual calm and composed demeanor in the business world.

Because of this, someone often teased her about this.

She retorted and continued to complain.

It was simply because she had made it very clear at the beginning! Why did the other party act like a hopeless case?

In this way, time passed year after year, her business did better, and she was gradually able to go back. The relationship between Su Mo and Keqing also eased, and everything was developing in a good direction.

Suddenly, one time she was too busy to read the news about the grandfather and grandson, and she didn't remember it until the matter was completely settled. However, when she was reading it this time, a sentence made her stand there in a daze for a long time.

It turns out that it said that grandpa passed away...

She couldn't believe it for a moment. The last news showed that Grandpa was in good health, so how could he have passed away this time?!

The huge shock made her unable to recover for a while. Then she became excited and her fingers holding the paper began to turn white. She read the message over and over again in disbelief. Although it was only a short sentence, she still could not understand it in her heart.

It’s not so much that I can’t understand it, but rather that I dare not believe it and don’t want to believe it!

She would rather her eyes deceived herself!

Just like that, she read it over and over again, and finally staggered, her mind exploded like a bolt from the blue, and she slumped in the chair, her mind blank, stunned for a long time, unable to come back to her senses. She only felt her body empty and weak, and her originally rational thoughts were thrown out of the sky, leaving only endless confusion and cowardice.

Yoshihisa

Tears welled up in her eyes, streaming down her pretty face. She looked like a homeless elk, bereft of her family and lost in the vast forest. I felt pity for her.

When she came to her senses, she hurried towards Liyue because she knew that besides her, there was someone who was even sadder.

Su Mo grew up with her grandfather since she was a child. Now her grandfather passed away suddenly. The impact on him was like the sky falling. He needed her, and she also needed to go back to see him for the last time.

However, when she rushed back, everything had settled down. Su Mo had gradually come out of his sadness and was much calmer than before. But perhaps because they had not seen each other for a long time, she found that Su Mo did not seem as frivolous as before, and seemed to have calmed down and become more taciturn.

He even took the initiative to go out and work to make a living, and she saw it all.

However, Ningguang soon discovered something was wrong.

How easy is it for a teenager to find a job?

Putting aside his age, Su Mo had suddenly become silent and lifeless, his conversations with others cold and dull. This was a stark contrast to his previous cheerful and lively personality, and this was a major obstacle to his job search.

Sometimes when he was depressed, he didn't eat much food all day.

Ningguang saw this and felt anxious, sometimes she couldn't help wanting to come out and persuade him, but after this idea came up, she denied it.

Because some things require one to experience them personally in order to gain a better understanding, she also wanted to take this opportunity to hone Su Mo.

But she didn't expect that one rainy night backstage, Su Mo got into trouble and almost starved to death on the street. She hurriedly took people to look for him, which saved Su Mo's life.

She still remembers that the rain was quite heavy at that time, and Su Mo's small face was pale. She felt very distressed about it and regretted her decision.

Although Su Mo was taken away by her, she remembered that there was a white cake next to Su Mo at that time, but for some reason he did not eat it.

Could it be that someone had been here before her?

She turned her head with confusion and saw a small figure hiding in the shadows in the distance. When it saw her looking at it, it quickly shrank back.

She didn't care about this. As for the man's appearance, she forgot his specific features. She only remembered that he was small and his face seemed a little dirty.

But this is not important. It has been so long and things have changed. Who can say for sure about some things?

Just like the relationship between Keqing and Su Mo, if she had always been by their side, perhaps things would not be like this now. However, although it is a little late, everything is still in time, because as long as the two of them are there, she is still there too.
