Just then, a warm hand gently landed on the back of her cool hand. She looked up and saw her sister smiling gently at her, her firm gaze giving her courage.

The two held each other's hands tightly under the table, as if trying to dispel their unease...

Shu Yunrong suggested that we visit Cixi Ancient Town in the afternoon, as tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival and there will be a lively and grand lantern night market in the evening.

The whole family goes on an outing to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, enjoying lanterns and the moon, and reuniting as a family.

Above the ancient and bustling stone-paved road in Cixi, rows of exquisitely crafted antique lanterns hang, surrounded by a lively crowd.

Schimerlin held her sister's little finger and walked slowly beside her. Under the cover of night, their love was unspoken, but the harmony and warmth of this moment would last forever.

"Wood, look at that rabbit lantern, it's so pretty..."

Standing under the lanterns, wearing only a mask, Shu Xiangyu's clear eyes appeared even more tender and beautiful under the light.

Schimerling seemed so engrossed in watching that he forgot to reply.

She turned around and saw this, a faint smile appearing in her eyes. She could only take her hand and continue strolling: "Silly girl, let's go..."

When they encounter a special lantern, they will take a picture with their phone and also secretly take a group photo as a souvenir.

"Yu Bao, I feel so happy right now."

Shu Xiangyu leaned on her shoulder and whispered, "I'm so happy too... I used to always run away from love, but now I know that being in love is really wonderful."

Schimerlin and she strolled leisurely along the stone path: "Look, there's a Taoist temple over there... Let's go in and take a look sometime."

"Yes, I'll go again if I have the chance."

"The holiday feels so short, only two or three days."

"That's right..."

At this moment, their feelings for each other were so strong that they were inseparable, how could they bear to be apart for too long?

Back in the city, Xi Molin originally planned to accompany his sister back to the hotel for the night, but Shu Xiangjun insisted on going anyway, saying that she could sleep on the sofa.

They called it creating a private world for their parents.

But he ruined their precious time...

Back in the hotel room, Shu Xiangyu went to the bathroom to wash up, while Shu Xiangjun lay stiffly on the sofa, ordering takeout.

Schimerlin turned on the TV and sat down next to him, ignoring him.

Unexpectedly, Shu Xiangjun suddenly sat up, staring intently at her phone screen, looking somewhat flustered. She then got up to leave, saying, "I have to go out for a bit, don't wait for me..."

"What's the emergency?"

Schimerlin noticed that he didn't look well.

"It's nothing. I'll just tell her I'm leaving."

Shu Xiangjun was unwilling to wait even a moment longer.

Schimerling wasn't too worried about him, after all, he had been working in society for several years and knew the basics.

She locked the door and turned off the lights and TV in the living room.

She quickly took off her clothes and went into the bathroom to cling to her sister.

"The Prime Minister is still outside, you..."

He has already left due to other matters.

Between kisses, Schimerlin whispered.

"No one will bother us tonight..."

Shu Xiangyu relaxed and responded to her with equal enthusiasm.

Tonight will be another sleepless night…

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, they set off back to Haishi after breakfast the next day.

Shu Xiangjun had some matters to attend to and would remain in Qizhou temporarily, while Shu Yunrong also rushed back to the detachment.

Shu Xiangyu has a schedule to go to Beijing this afternoon, so she can't stay with Momo any longer. Good times always pass quickly, but fortunately, the next time they meet won't be long, as National Day is just around the corner.

Unfortunately, the day before National Day, the college issued a notice that it would take all senior students to the field for training during the National Day holiday, so that they could experience firsthand the field environment they would face in the future.

The process lasted for two weeks.

Before departure, the school allowed students to notify their families.

Xi Molin first told Yang Ma that when she called her sister's phone, no one answered, and she tried several times in a row without success.

She called Sister Ni Qing again, but no one answered.

This made her worry; could what happened back then be happening again...?

She immediately called Sister Yu and asked her to help her find out.

Yu Qingtong agreed.

Unable to get any news from her sister and unable to leave school to look for her, Xi Molin was in unbearable torment.

With her phone about to be handed over, she had no choice but to send her a message first.

So that she wouldn't worry about herself too.

If Yu Qingtong wants to know news about the entertainment industry, she can only do so through Ning Ran, with whom she still has contact. However, Ning Ran is currently abroad, so it's unlikely that she can get accurate information.

Even though she knew he was the most suitable person to contact, the image of another person still popped into her mind; she thought that contacting her would give her the fastest and most accurate information.

But they had deleted all their contact information completely…

She opened the dial pad and skillfully entered a phone number.

She was afraid that if she delayed too long, something might really happen to Shu Xiangyu, and then she wouldn't be able to explain it to Merlin.

After much hesitation, she finally dialed the number.

Fortunately, the phone number hadn't been blocked. After ringing a few times, a woman's voice came from the other end, but it wasn't Mei Xiaofei herself.

She felt her heart clench tightly, but she still forced herself to ask in a low voice, "Hello, is Ms. Mei here?"

"Hello, who is it?"

The woman's voice was gentle and polite.

What are she and Mei Xiaofei? Not friends, but former bosses? That's barely acceptable.

"I was her former assistant, and I need to speak with her..."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Mei is having her engagement banquet today, so she probably won't have time to answer your call..."

Like a sudden clap of thunder, Yu Qingtong's face turned deathly pale, but what did it have to do with her?

Will the company's artists also participate?

His voice had become low, hoarse, and choked with sobs.

"Yes, but cell phones are not allowed today, so we may not be able to reach Ms. Mei. If it's convenient, please let me know first and I will pass on your message."

"It's nothing, I... I just had something small to take care of. You don't need to tell her. Thank you, thank you."

She immediately hung up the phone, looking extremely flustered.

Then she called Merlin to explain why her sister hadn't answered the phone.

Relieved, Xi Molin turned and asked her in a low voice, "Mei Xiaofei is engaged... are you still bothered by it?"

Yu Qingtong walked to the shop entrance and sat down, looking lost and dejected. What right did she have to care? They had long since cut off all contact and had absolutely no connection whatsoever.

"We are strangers to each other, and we can just forget about each other in the future."

"Sister Yu..."

"It's okay, you can go to the training camp without worry. Your sister will be fine."

"Well, thank you."

"be careful."

"Okay, bye-bye then."

"Bye-Bye."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Qingtong looked up at the fairly nice weather.

Today's engagement, there should be a lot of people. Tomorrow is National Day, so I can have a good get-together with my friends...

Even if it's a business partnership, and they'll be husband and wife in the future, can they really go their whole lives without ever seeing each other...?

Tears streamed down her face. In the end, she couldn't hold onto her heart and felt an excruciating pain because of it. It was utterly ridiculous.

At this moment, Mei Xiaofei, like a puppet, temporarily returned from the banquet hall to the lounge, threw her engagement ring on the coffee table, and came in with her fiancé Wu Qianyu.

"Are you planning to keep a straight face the whole time and let those people in the audience laugh at me?"

After closing the door, Wu Qianyu questioned him in a cold voice.
