The actress is reborn and is chasing after her husband.

Ci'an Ancient Town was built in the Ming Dynasty. During the Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, it was gradually expanded due to its strategic location and prospered for a time. Later, it experienced wars, but fortunately, most of the buildings were well preserved. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it was continuously repaired and the original ancient town was fully presented to the world. People from all over the country come to take photos to commemorate the occasion.

They had been here many times before. Shu Yunrong had an old comrade-in-arms who ran a restaurant in town, and they would always go there to sit for a while and have a meal cooked over a wood fire.

The ancient town is not yet overly commercialized, and many shops are still occupied by elderly people living there.

Walking on the smooth bluestone road, you are surrounded by quaint old buildings with a distinctive local style.

Shu Yunrong and Yang Yufen walked hand in hand at the front. As an architectural designer, Shu Xiangjun had a special fondness for the old buildings in the ancient town. He especially liked the architectural features that were representative of China. His appreciative gaze fell on the uniquely designed houses, and he had already taken countless photos with his phone.

Shu Xiangyu followed slowly behind them. She wore an olive green bomber jacket, black slim-fit trousers, and light brown Martin boots. Despite concealing her face, her tall and slender figure still exuded a remarkable temperament and elegance.

She gazed indifferently at the ancient buildings around her that had remained unchanged for ten years, seemingly in a bad mood, and didn't even have the mind to take out her phone to take pictures.

Schimerling, dressed in a black turtleneck sweater, a light gray denim jacket, black cargo pants, and the training boots she often wore in the army, strolled leisurely alone, like a gentle breeze and a bright moon. She looked at the smooth, worn cobblestones beneath her feet, the still quiet and elegant street. She walked at the back, occasionally taking pictures of her family members, the beautiful scenery of the ancient street, and her graceful, ethereal figure…

The two remained tacitly silent, understanding that too much talk would lead to mistakes, and maintaining this distance was just right.

As they walked across an ancient arched bridge, Shu Xiangjun beckoned Shu Xiangyu and Xi Molin over. As they approached, they realized he wanted them to take a group photo together.

Shu Xiangyu lowered the brim of her hat to cover her only exposed eyes. Although she did not refuse Shu Xiangjun's suggestion, she stood by the stone bridge without taking the initiative to go forward.

Standing two or three meters away from her, Schimerlin felt dejected and embarrassed upon seeing this, and could only continue to put his hands in his pockets and look down at his shoes.

"Wood, you haven't been back for so long, don't you want to take a picture with your sister? When you go back, you can brag to your comrades that you bumped into the big star Shu Xiangyu on the street and were lucky enough to take a picture with her."

Shu Xiangjun, looking like she didn't mind making things worse, walked up to Xi Molin, holding her phone, eager to take pictures of them.

At this moment, Shu Xiangyu raised her head, revealing a pair of clear, bright eyes. She hadn't said a word since she got out of the car.

"Sister, how are you?"

Shu Xiangjun thought she had agreed, and his eyes showed interest.

"Not very good..."

She answered coldly and turned to leave.

Today, she had been in a bad mood for several days, feeling as if invisible boulders were pressing down on her, making it hard to breathe. She really had no interest in playing with them.

"sister!"

Suddenly, Schimerlin called out to her.

Shu Xiangyu stopped abruptly and turned to look at her, the light in his eyes dimming considerably.

Meeting that probing, even somewhat cold gaze, Xi Molin felt a sudden unease, but still managed a faint smile: "We...it really has been a long time since we took a picture together. You don't need to take off your hat and mask, let Xiangjun take the picture for us..."

Faced with her invitation, Shu Xiangyu paused for a moment, then unexpectedly began to remove her hat and mask. Her slightly wavy long hair fell down her back and shoulders, and she casually smoothed it with her hand. Her star quality was instantly revealed, and her meaning was quite clear.

Shu Xiangjun immediately stepped forward and shoved Xi Molin: "Move over there!"

Xi Molin was surprised that she agreed so readily, and hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, Shu Xiangjun pushed him hard, so he had to take small steps to Shu Xiangyu's side and stand a short distance away from her.

Shu Xiangjun raised his phone, which already had the camera on, and seeing the scene, he felt a bit exasperated. He found a suitable angle and couldn't help but tease, "You blockhead, can't you get closer to your sister? She's going to eat you up!"

Schimerlin, who was already on edge, felt his blood swell even more after hearing Schimerlin's words. His neck, ears, and cheeks turned bright red, as if he had unexpectedly met his idol and was getting a chance to take a photo with him.

Just as she was in a daze, Shu Xiangyu took the initiative to move closer to her until the two were shoulder to shoulder.

The moment she touched her, Shimmering seemed to freeze instantly. She stared blankly ahead, her hands clenched tightly, and her body stood ramrod straight.

Shu Xiangyu, however, was not as nervous as her. She was relaxed and at ease, as taking photos was as natural to her as eating and drinking.

Fortunately, no one was passing by at that moment. Shu Xiangjun crouched down and called out, "You two, smile! You're not strangers..."

These words were like a lock that could be turned around; under his guidance, the smiles on their faces deepened and became more natural.

The two stood side by side in the warm sunshine and beautiful, ancient scenery. A gentle breeze blew, and the water under the bridge rippled sometimes and sometimes calmly. They were both outstanding talents in their respective fields, with tall and slender figures. Shu Xiangyu was still beautiful and gentle, while Xi Molin was spirited and youthful. With their heartfelt smiles as the shutter button was pressed, time stood still. Their photo, taken after four years, was finally saved in Shu Xiangjun's phone!

He took several more pictures.

As pedestrians approached, Shu Xiangyu suppressed her smile, turned around consciously, and put on her hat and mask.

Xi Molin glanced at her a few times, hoping she wouldn't be too offended. Her tense nerves gradually relaxed. She didn't say anything, but quickly walked to Shu Xiangjun's side, secretly relieved, and then whispered in his ear, "Send me an original photo later, thank you."

Shu Xiangjun lowered her head and casually replied, "Okay, I'll send it to you right away."

"Sis, do you want a photo?"

He turned and shouted again.

Shu Xiangyu had already put her mask and baseball cap back on and continued walking forward. Upon hearing his words, she simply replied with two words: "Okay."

As Ximerlin watched her departing figure, her mood gradually calmed down, but she could still feel her coldness and indifference. Perhaps she was still angry with her for what happened that morning, after all, she hadn't said a word to her since they had been out for so long.

As Shu Xiangjun was looking down at her phone, she heard a quiet, melancholic voice in her ear.

"My lord, thank you for your kindness. Such opportunities will likely be rare in the future..."

She understood that he was trying to fulfill her wishes, but she might never have another moment like today where she mustered up the courage to speak to her.

When Shu Xiangjun finished sending the picture and looked up at her, Xi Molin had already left, but her back view looked even more desolate and forlorn.

He looked at the photo of the two of them on his phone again. They were smiling so happily at that moment, just like in their teenage years. They were so close back then. How could they have become like strangers in the blink of an eye...

He wasn't a particularly sensitive person; on the contrary, he was quite observant of many things. She was so sensitive and prone to overthinking; I really don't know how upset my sister must have been!

Shu Xiangjun quickly caught up with them. When they passed an old Taoist temple, he invited them to go in and offer incense. However, Shu Xiangyu ignored him and kept walking. Xi Molin stood at the entrance of the temple and looked inside, feeling uneasy. Seeing that they were not interested, Shu Xiangjun had no choice but to give up.

"Let's go, we'll go again when we have time..."

Schimerlin turned back to look ahead, a slight smile unconsciously playing on his lips. He didn't seem to care much about the strange feeling in his heart, and then left.

Afterwards, they strolled around the ancient town as usual, took many group photos, had dinner around 6 p.m., and didn't get home until almost 8 p.m.

As Schimerlin finished washing up and was about to go to bed, he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.

She thought it would be Xiangjun or Yang Ma, but when she opened the door, she saw Shu Xiangyu with long hair draped over her shoulders, wearing a dark black halter nightgown standing in front of the door.

Her heart skipped a beat; she was somewhat surprised by her arrival and also caught a faint smell of alcohol on her. She asked in a low voice, "Is something the matter?"

Shu Xiangyu's flushed cheeks were beautiful and charming. Her lips, though without lipstick, were still so red and luscious. Her deep and captivating eyes seemed to conceal indescribable emotions. Just like countless times in the past, she naturally reached out and gently stroked her now mature and elegant face: "Wood, you've changed so much!"

Her delicate and beautiful appearance and the smooth, warm touch of her hand instantly stirred ripples in Xi Molin's calm heart. She glanced down at her fair and slender wrist, then turned her gaze to her rosy face, which was full of charm and passion.

Is he drunk?

Does she know what she's doing?

"How much...did you drink?"

Shu Xiangyu gazed intently at her eyebrows, nose, and pale lips, which were of moderate thickness. Finally, his gaze followed her hand to her chin and said, "Hmm... I drank most of a bottle of red wine."

Mostly a bottle of red wine!

Xi Molin's eyes narrowed slightly, his worry evident, and his expression turned serious. She had drunk so much again! She must have drunk quite a bit last night, how could her stomach, which is comparable to a child's, possibly handle it!

They really never take their own bodies seriously.

"I'll go buy you some hangover medicine..."

Schimerlin frowned and turned to leave.

Shu Xiangyu grabbed her collar and moved closer to her. She tilted her head back and whispered softly in front of her, "Mo Mo, can we go back to how we were before? Can we... still be so close?"

Standing upright the whole time, Xi Molin looked at her drunken ramblings with endless sorrow and helplessness in her eyes. She asked her in a deep voice, "Should we go back to being like sisters, or like we used to have a secret relationship?"

If they were sisters, they could never be lovers. If they were to become lovers, it would be different from being sisters. What she wanted from beginning to end was her as a person.

Shu Xiangyu lowered his head and leaned against her chest, his hand gripping her clothes tighter and tighter.

Silence prevailed for a time.

Not receiving a definite answer was actually within Ximerlin's expectations. She smiled self-deprecatingly, realizing she shouldn't have hoped for too much, yet she had still foolishly wanted an answer.
