The car stopped in front of the Shen family villa. Luo Xikui picked up her bag and violin, opened the car door and got out.
Before she could thank him for bringing her back, the car started and drove away.
She stood at the front door, watching the black sedan drive away, then slowly turned her gaze away, sighed softly, and turned to walk back into the house.
After returning to her room, she called her assistant, wanting to move her trip to Japan forward.
However, the assistant said there were still things to be done here, and the recording studio in Japan was currently unavailable.
She didn't want to press her assistant any further, so she hung up the phone and sat blankly on the edge of the bed.
Considering how clearly she made it today, and given his consistently high self-esteem, he probably won't see her anytime soon; it seems she's just worrying unnecessarily.
After letting out a long sigh, Luo Xikui got up and took a shower.
When I fall asleep at night, all I see are scenes from the day, and his image fills my mind.
He was dressed in a casual light gray suit, a white shirt, and a light blue striped tie.
When he ate, the sleeves of his shirt were bent up three sections, revealing a powerful forearm. The knuckles of his wrists were beautiful, and the smooth lines connected to his somewhat wide palms.
His fingers were still as fair and slender as before, with neatly trimmed nails. She still remembered how beautiful his hand was when he held a pen and wrote.
He drank two bowls of soup tonight, and ate the green cabbage hearts and sweet lotus root the most.
he……
Luo Xikui buried her head in the pillow. She had never had a good memory, so how could she remember every detail about him so clearly?
She spoke such self-deceiving words that even she herself didn't believe, so how could he possibly believe them?

After returning home, Xu Ziyu reflected on everything that had happened that night.
No matter how I think about it, something just doesn't feel right. If a person's personality changes as they grow up, it shouldn't change that drastically.
He didn't believe a single word of her nonsense about sibling affection.
If they're just siblings, what's the point of her photoshopping a 'wedding photo' and putting it in her own wallet?
If it's a brother-sister relationship, why did she always blush in front of him before?
If it's a brother-sister relationship, what does it mean if she keeps asking him what the ring means?
If it was a sibling relationship, what would it mean if she secretly kissed his cheek when she thought he was asleep during the New Year when she was sixteen?
He was upset by her words earlier, but now that he thinks about it, they were absurd and ridiculous.
But why is she avoiding him? Is she really angry that he hasn't contacted her for so many years? It doesn't seem like it; it seems like she just wants to distance herself from him.
Xu Ziyu pinched the bridge of her nose with some annoyance. It is said that girls change a lot as they grow up, and she, who used to be so easy to understand, has become somewhat incomprehensible.
Just then, a knock sounded on the door, accompanied by a gentle female voice.
Xu Ziyu put aside his worries and said, "Please come in."
Ni Sitian pushed open the door and went in. When she reached her son's bedside, she asked with concern, "How did you feel on the plane today?"
"Hmm." Xu Ziyu nodded, following her gaze to his left knee, his eyes darkening slightly.
"I was supposed to pick you up, but your dad insisted on going to this dinner party first." Ni Sitian asked softly, "Have you had dinner yet?"
"I've already eaten." Xu Ziyu smiled faintly when he saw his mother's worried look. "Mom, I'm not a child anymore. I know how to take care of myself."
"If only you had known, you kept such a big thing from me back then." Ni Sitian glared at him reproachfully.
