Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Yu Lili had already clearly rejected them earlier in the day, but Shen Zhilie was bringing up the topic once again at this point in time. She could tell that Old Mrs. Shen really wanted to go.

The important point was that Ye Qianqian, too, looked very much like she wanted to go.

A vacation... Fine then.

It’d do her some good to be able to let loose. Yu Lili gave it some thought and nodded her head.

A smile crept onto Shen Zhilie’s face as he gazed at Yu Lili. He nodded his head in return and replied, “Alright. Let’s go then!”

They were quick to execute their plans. That night, Old Mrs. Shen spent the night with Yu Lili while Shen Zhilie returned to the hotel.

The next morning, around 7 or 8 a.m. Shen Zhilie pressed their doorbell. What had Ye Qianqian and Yu Lili rendered speechless was the fact that he had already prepared everything, including a vehicle for the road-trip and food that could be eaten in the car had already been obtained from the hotel.

All Yu Lili, Ye Qianqian, and Old Mrs. Shen needed to do was to pack an extra change of clothes and they would be ready to set off.

Fujian wasn’t far from Kingstown. But, by car, it still required about three to four hours of traveling time. Along the way, everyone was chatting and laughing. Time flew quickly.

Before lone, the local scenery began to reveal itself. The lovely spring setting was attractive to the eye and mesmerizing.

When they reached the hotel, it was after 1 p.m. When everyone was done with lunch, they headed to do some sightseeing.

“This is a really great place!” Yu Lili couldn’t resist exclaiming as she stood by the clear lake.

Her surroundings were filled with mist from the mountains, birds humming, the sound of many birds fluttering their wings, glistening reflections from the surface of the lake, and the endless buzz of nature. The air was fresh. As the sun shined down, it looked like a celestial paradise.

It is beautiful!

“It’ll be even more beautiful during sunrise,” Old Mrs. Shen said happily from behind Yu Lili.

Yu Lili looked toward the old lady, and the old lady looked back at her. The pair of eyes that were usually blurred with age looked very bright. Yu Lili noticed her own reflection in the old lady’s eyes.

For some unknown reason, Old Mrs. Shen’s eyes began to redden. “It’s been so very hard to finally be able to stand here together with you. Lili, do you know that you’re very much like my friend’s daughter?”

Yu Lili looked at Old Mrs. Shen and didn’t reply as she waited for her to continue.

But that was all Old Mrs. Shen said. She didn’t elaborate. Instead, she asked, “How did you and Wen Fenglin get to know each other?”

Yu Lili thought about it for a moment and weighed her words before giving a detailed explanation. When she was done, she added in another sentence. “Uncle Wen is a really good person. He has been very kind to me.”

Old Mrs. Shen looked like she had somewhat expected that answer and replied, “Wen Fenglin is definitely a good person. But, I think the reason he treats you so kindly is because he can tell that you look very much like someone from his past.”

“Xian’er?” Yu Lili probed.

“How did you know?” Old Mrs. Shen asked.

“I heard Uncle Wen and Ou Ming’s mother mention it before,” Yu Lili said.

Old Mrs. Shen sighed emotionally and replied, “That story is a tragedy. Back then, Wen Fenglin and my good friend’s daughter were in love, but Xian’er parents did not approve of it because Xian’er had been of ill-health since she was young.” As she spoke, she looked at Yu Lili. “Those were different times. Back then, Xian’er’s was from one of the most prominent families in the city while Wen Fenglin was merely from a somewhat well-to-do family in a small town. The disparity between the two families was too great. And, coupled with Xian’er’s...”
