After careful consideration, the mother and daughter reached a temporary consensus and decided to continue living according to the current arrangements.
Chuchu tiptoed back to her room, changed into loose and comfortable clothes, and then walked lightly towards the piano room in her home that was full of music to find her sister Chu Fei.
In the piano room, Chu Fei was sitting in front of the quaint and elegant piano, his fingertips dancing on the black and white keys, playing a sad yet beautiful song.
The melody is like a gurgling stream, slowly flowing into people's hearts, making people immersed in it involuntarily, as if they can see the pictures depicted in the music.
Chuchu quietly walked to Chu Fei's side, found a place to sit down, and did not make any sound, just quietly waiting for her sister to finish playing the song.
Chu Fei's playing was skillful and soulful, but her eyes betrayed a subtle melancholy. As her gaze strayed towards Chu Chu, her eyes suddenly moistened, a single, glistening tear slipping down, finally dripping onto the piano keys. At that moment, the piano music abruptly ceased, and the entire piano room fell into a brief silence.
Chuchu saw this, and an indescribable emotion suddenly surged in her heart. She didn't say much, but silently stretched out her arms and hugged Chufei tightly. Chuchu didn't know how many times she had felt sad about the joys and sorrows of the human world, but she knew that at this moment, she had to give her sister the warmest comfort.
She patted Chu Fei's back gently, her voice soft but firm: "Sister, I just came back. I'm sorry, I should have been with you these days." Chu Chu's words were like a ray of warm sunshine, penetrating the haze in Chu Fei's heart.
Chu Fei choked up in Chu Chu's arms and said, "Chu Chu, am I useless? I'm 30 years old and still not married. I have to live in my stepfather's house and rely on their support." Her words were full of self-blame and helplessness.
After hearing this, Chuchu felt a pang of sadness in her heart. This feeling was like an electric current, instantly spreading throughout her limbs.
She quickly comforted him, "Sister, there are so many people who are still unmarried at the age of 30. You know, even the gods, whose lifespans are measured in tens of thousands of years, still don't know what love is. Besides, you've made a lot of money through your own efforts, enough to buy a house and a car. We can even move out and live independently."
Chu Fei broke free from Chu Chu's embrace, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, and forced a smile: "You are quite good at comforting people."
Seeing this, Chuchu also smiled. "Sister, you are the immortal flower in the Palace of Hades. After you die in the human world, you can return to the underworld. Those human male animals are indeed prone to betraying their partners and are not able to be wholeheartedly loyal. But do you know? Divine beasts like the Chongming Bird, the Qilin, and the Nine-tailed White Fox are all monogamous and absolutely loyal to their partners. Sister, why don't you endure it for thirty years and get married after you return to the underworld?"
Chu Fei couldn't help laughing after hearing Chu Chu's words: "Are you kidding me? I'm a flower, how can I possibly marry a beast? And thirty years? My Lord God, I don't want to be lonely for thirty years."
Chuchu frowned slightly, her eyes filled with confusion and concern. She gently tugged at Chu Fei's sleeve and whispered, "But sister, there are so many men in this world whose hearts are like the erratic wind, unpredictable. Haven't you seen enough of their infidelity? Mom worries about you every day, afraid that your heart will be broken by those unworthy people."
Chu Fei nodded gently, a subtle look of determination and relief in her eyes. "Don't worry, Chuchu, I've learned how to cheer up quickly. Occasional low moods are just small episodes in life, and won't keep me immersed in sadness for long. You're right, no one has the ability to bring me down. As for buying a house you mentioned just now, I think it's a good idea. I really should have my own space. Living outside occasionally and changing the environment can also help me relax. In the past few years, I haven't moved out, mainly because I was worried that Mom would feel lonely. But now, I think it's time to think about myself."
Chuchu's face lit up with a bright smile, as bright as a flower in bloom in spring. "Yes, sister, just like birds must leave their nests and fly when they grow up, children also need to leave their parents' arms and pursue their own dreams and lives. The studio apartment that Daddy Gu bought for me is very nice, and the location is also very good. It's right near our school. I heard that many professors have bought houses there. Why don't you consider buying one near our school too?"
Chu Fei stood up and pulled Chu Chu to stand up as well, her eyes gleaming with longing for the future. "I'm not in a rush about the house for now. I plan to take a few months off to relax, and then find time to choose a quiet and comfortable place. After all, a house is for living in, and I have to find one that makes me feel comfortable."
Chuchu chuckled and said mischievously, "Sister, did I succeed in persuading you? This is an important task that mom gave me. I don't want to see you immersed in the shadow of the past and unable to extricate yourself."
Chu Fei felt a surge of warmth in her heart upon hearing this. She looked at Chu Chu with gratitude and said, "I'm so happy to see you. Chu Chu, although you're a deity, you've always treated yourself like an ordinary person, living among us. For 18 years, you've always called me sister, cared deeply for our entire family, and treated our relatives and friends with courtesy and care. You make us all feel so warm."
