Xu Tingchuan reached out and grasped Ni Sitian's hand.
Ni Sitian didn't say anything more. She turned her head to look out the window, forcing back the tears in her eyes.
Xu Tingchuan knew she was adjusting herself, so he withdrew his hand and continued to drive attentively.
After returning home from the hospital, Ni Sitian was listless and locked herself in her study for a long time.
Xu Tingchuan knew she needed space, so he didn't disturb her and let her adjust her emotions on her own.
Ni Sitian turned on her computer, logged into MSN, clicked on Ni Tianzhen's profile picture, and sent a video request.
She did this in a state of complete mental blankness. When she came to her senses, she saw Ni Tianzhen's face appear on the screen.
"Wait for me a minute," Ni Tianzhen said, and after leaving for a while, she returned to her computer with a bowl of instant noodles.
Ni Sitian watched Ni Tianzhen eat instant noodles with a satisfied smile, and her heart ached with sadness.
If nothing had happened, she should still be in Yihai, pregnant, eating the nutritious lunches made by Li Shaoan, instead of eating instant noodles like she is now.
"Sis, is this all you're having for lunch?" Ni Sitian asked, a little worried.
"I finally managed to get these instant noodles from my roommate. They're the most delicious food in the world." Ni Tianzhen slurped up the noodles, took a sip of the soup, and looked up at Ni Sitian with satisfaction. Noticing something was wrong, she frowned and asked, "What's wrong? Why are your eyes so swollen? Did you just cry? Did Xu Tingchuan bully you?"
Ni Sitian shook her head, unsure whether she should tell Ni Tianzhen about Li Shaoan.
"You're driving me crazy! What happened?" Seeing that she didn't answer, Ni Tianzhen became even more worried and couldn't help but make other bad guesses: "It's my parents..."
"No, no." Ni Sitian quickly denied it, pursing her lips and making up a lame excuse: "Yes, Xu Tingchuan forced me to drink bitter medicine, and that medicine was really too bitter..."
Ni Tianzhen chuckled upon hearing this, saying with a mix of helplessness and indulgence, "You silly girl, you're so old and you're still afraid of bitter medicine. You're exactly the same as when you were little, you haven't grown up at all."
Hearing Ni Tianzhen's kind words, Ni Sitian's lips curved into a slight smile.
"You don't look well. Are you sick?" Ni Tianzhen asked with concern.
"No, it's a traditional Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation."
"It's all because of that Ni Ziqi that you developed this problem." Ni Tianzhen knew that Ni Sitian suffered a lot during her period, and couldn't help but want to curse the culprit again.
"It's much better than before," Ni Sitian said, trying to reassure her so as not to worry her.
After video chatting for about ten minutes, the two finished catching up on their recent situations.
Ni Sitian couldn't help but ask, "Sister, are you going back to China soon?"
"What? Missed me?" Ni Tianzhen smiled.
Ni Sitian looked at her and saw that she seemed to have completely emerged from the shadow of her failed marriage, and seemed to have truly let go of Li Shaoan. She wondered if she should bring it up with her again.
"Yes, I miss you. Your uncle and aunt miss you too."
“I’ve only been out here for less than four months, and I won’t be going back for now. I’ll wait until my courses here are finished.” Ni Tianzhen said, then complained to Si Tian about how difficult it was to learn jewelry design.
Although she was complaining, Ni Sitian could tell that she was genuinely having a good time and being happy over there.
After venting her frustrations for a while, Ni Tianzhen smiled and said, "I have class in a bit. Is there anything else you want to tell me?"
