"Brother Mu, please have a meal with me. I have something to tell you."

Si Yutong looked at the scenery outside the window and said calmly. After so much trouble, she was no longer upset when she heard his call. It seemed that she was not so unable to let go.

She stared at the pot of green ivy with a faint expression.

"Yutong, I think we don't need to have dinner. If you have anything to say, just say it on the phone." The reason why Mu Jingjue answered her call was that he felt that even if they couldn't be lovers, there would still be some family affection between them, and the two families were old friends, so the situation would not be so ugly.

"Don't you want to know why Song Ci went abroad? Don't you want to know what she said to me?"

An hour later, Mu Jingjue appeared in the restaurant.

"You still came?" Si Yutong said with some self-mockery. She actually had to rely on her talent to see him. If she hadn't said that, perhaps she wouldn't be able to see him at all.

Looking at the person in front of her, she felt a little jealous because he came over just because of her words. Why? They had only been married for a few months, but he was doing better than she had been in the past ten years.

"Don't you have something to say? Hurry up, I have something to do this afternoon." Mu Jingjue urged, with no intention of reminiscing about the past. He and she were not at the stage of reminiscing about the past. What's more, he was afraid that she would know. If someone photographed them and it was on the news, based on her personality, she might not want to come back.

He actually missed her. Although he usually pretended not to miss her, his longing for her was like a tide, and he always thought about the day when she would come home.

If it weren't for her agreement, he would have arranged a trip and flown there long ago.

"Why are you in such a hurry? Come have dinner with me."

"If you have nothing to say, then I'll leave." Mu Jingjue thought she was just playing a joke on him, so he immediately stood up and wanted to turn around and leave.

"She came to see me before she went abroad." Si Yutong still spoke.

Mu Jingjue, upon hearing this, sat down again.

"She said to give us a chance." When Si Yutong said this, Mu Jingjue opposite her looked at her with some confusion. Opportunity, what chance?

"She said she'd give me one month, and if you told her you wanted a divorce within that month, she'd automatically withdraw."

Mu Jingjue's pupils shrank when he heard that. So this was her intention. She was so nice that she actually dared to lie to him.

"I can't possibly divorce her." He said it in a firm tone, as if he was saying something firm.

"I know. So, I've thought it through. I came here today to say goodbye to you. To say goodbye to our relationship."

"I was so impulsive back then that I didn't even say goodbye properly. Let's consider today as our formal farewell meal. From now on, you will be my Brother Mu."

She thought it through. Even though she liked him, she couldn't lower herself to get entangled with him again and again. That would only make her lose face, bring discredit to the Si family, and make things difficult for others.

Since there will be no result in the end, why bother making things difficult for each other and shattering the filters in each other's hearts.

It’s okay to be a brother, she told herself.

"You can still find someone better and more suitable than me." Mu Jingjue opened his lips slightly and comforted.

Although there is no possibility for them, he still hopes that she can find a good match and a good home.

"Of course, who am I? They are too good for me."

Si Yutong said, trying hard to hold back her tears, "How can I not be sad? That was a time when I had loved someone with all my heart. Suddenly letting go to someone else, she would still feel sad."

After the meal, the two said goodbye.
