Xinran paused and looked at Duan Ruyin, pursing her lips without saying anything. After a moment, she turned back and said lightly, "Please lead the way, Duan Men Master." 0
 
"Young Master Si will be very happy to see Miss Xia!" Duan Ruyin glanced at Old Master and said softly. 0
 
Takahashi Ryu snorted coldly. He had seen that little brat's provocation and disapproved of his actions, thinking he was making things difficult for that brat's wife. His game had just begun, and he wouldn't stop until he had enough fun. If anyone was to blame, it should be that brat from the Zhong family! 0
 
"You better remember what you said. You can visit Zhong Si and take care of him, but don't have any inappropriate thoughts. Otherwise, if you get hurt later, don't blame my people from the Dongshan Family for being ruthless!" Takahashi Ryu pretended to look down on Xinran. 0
 
"Old Master is overthinking!" Xinran did not look at Takahashi Ryu. She did not possess any strong will; she wasn't going to hold onto any pride just to prove a point. She simply knew what she wanted and understood herself. 0
 
The winding corridor was filled with an ancient atmosphere. As Xinran walked forward with Duan Ruyin, she realized that Mu Shaosi's injuries were not as serious as she had imagined. She didn't understand why his grandfather had called her to Japan under the pretense of his life-threatening injury. Was it just to let her know that the dignified Young Master of Cherry Blossom Hall was not someone a person like her could aspire to? 0
 
She had never considered that there was such a subtle relationship between her and Mu Shaosi. When they got married, she never pressured him to make their relationship public because she knew there was no need to announce a marriage with only a three-month term. Besides, she thought he was just playing a game called marriage! 0
 
Later on, his tenderness and affection enveloped her like a web, making her almost forget her initial thoughts. She began to feel reluctant as each day passed in her role as his wife. At this moment, due to his grandfather's words, she suddenly woke up from that facade of love. In reality, it would always come to an end eventually; her inability to let go was nothing but a joke. Perhaps Mu Shaosi didn't care at all; it was only her who foolishly gave her heart time and again, only to pick up a heart full of scars afterward... 0
 
"Young Master Si, look who has come!" When Duan Ruyin pushed open the door to Mu Shaosi's room, the woman inside naturally turned to look at the doorway, holding bandages in her hands. Standing outside the door, Xinran quietly watched as Mu Shaosi, bare-chested and leaning against the headboard, was being treated by a woman who appeared gentle and delicate. 0
 
"You've come!" Mu Shaosi looked directly at Xinran. Only he knew how much he missed her. Fortunately, this woman wasn't completely heartless; she still came, which brought him some comfort. 0
 
"I heard you were injured, so I thought I should come see you!" Xinran entered the room. She showed no curiosity towards the woman sitting on the edge of the bed; with her intelligence, she had already guessed this woman's identity and thus felt no need for curiosity. 0
 
 
“Zhong Si Jun, who is this?” Takeuchi Yasuko stood up, her enchanting and gentle eyes fixed on Mu Shaosi, asking. 0
 
“I am his friend, Summer!” Xinran interjected, even extending her hand for a handshake. But then she thought that this genuine Japanese woman probably did not know the Chinese custom of shaking hands. 0
 
Duan Ruyin leaned against the door, watching the two women with great interest. He had considered that this scene might be filled with tension, but then he thought again—how could the Future Lady be someone who would lose her composure and engage in a fight with the woman beside Young Master Si? A smart woman would never choose to argue in front of a man; that would only make him dislike her! 0
 
Upon hearing Xinran's introduction, Mu Shaosi frowned. He did not like how she introduced herself, but it was indeed because he had not publicly acknowledged their marriage that she could not confidently say she was his wife. This also gave his grandfather an opportunity to bring Takeuchi Yasuko to entangle him. He had intended to directly kick her out of the room, but considering she was a guest invited by his grandfather, he still showed her some courtesy and allowed her to tend to his wounds. However, he did not expect that at such a critical moment, Xinran would appear! 0
 
He was torn between wanting to embrace her to relieve his longing and hoping she would feel a bit jealous about him and Takeuchi. But seeing the calm expression on her face, he realized he might have overthought it! 0
