Mu Siyin snorted lightly. “Do you see me going on a date? Are you blind?”
“You…”
“You what? No one takes you for a mute if you keep your thoughts to yourself!”
Mu Siyin said those words before heading towards the building with the flowers in her hands. Mu Xingyu was so mad that she could vomit blood.
The Old Madam and Li Tongzhi were talking about something inside the villa when they saw Mu Siyin back with flowers. One of them looked happy, and the other, shocked.
The happy one was obviously the Old Madam. Her speculation was correct — Mu Siyin was still with the man after all!
On the other hand, Li Tongzhi found it hard to accept. With a frown, she stood up and said, “Which vile man is it this time, Mu Siyin?”
Mu Siyin grunted softly. Not wanting to waste her time on the woman, she spat out bluntly, “I have no time for comments.”
“You! I’m your stepmother after all. Watch your att.i.tude!”
Li Tongzhi roared. She was expecting Mu Siyin to defend herself as usual, but the latter directly headed upstairs instead. Mu Siyin had obviously disregarded her.
The fury in her heart burned, but she had no choice other than to endure it.
The Old Madam lifted her gaze and shot Li Tongzhi a glance. “Why are you always being so particular with her? Those flowers are obviously from Tengyue’s President. Who else could it be?”
“But didn’t she…”
“Did she ever say that she has broken up?”
The Old Madam’s words immediately shut Li Tongzhi up.
Mu Siyin headed upstairs and took a picture of the flowers. Then, she sent it to Shi Beiyu along with a short text. [I love the vibrant color so much. Thank you.]
Shi Beiyu instantly replied. [As long as you like it.]
The smile on Mu Siyin’s lips gradually disappeared and was overtaken by worry.
He was such a perfect man. What if he really was taken away by another woman?
The next morning, Mu Siyin was woken up by the plashing patter of the rain.
She hugged her blanket and turned around to look at the time. She saw that it was just 7:00 a.m.
She initially wanted to sleep in, but a thought crossed her mind. Mu Siyin immediately shot up in bed after that.
She was supposed to visit her sister and her mother at the cemetery today.
She quickly washed up and headed downstairs. There was no one in the living room that early in the morning yet. Hence, Mu Siyin walked into the kitchen and took a piece of bread before leaving the residence in a rush.
She had to buy some flowers from the florist and some offerings first. Only after that would she walk to the cemetery.
It was not pouring outside, but it was not drizzling either. Although she was carrying an umbrella, the hems of her skirt were soaked from the rain and were slightly wet.
Since red tulips were Mu Siyun’s favorite flowers, Mu Siyin specially bought the freshest bouquet before getting some purple chrysanthemums for her mother.
It was already 9:00 a.m. by the time she arrived at the cemetery.
The Mu family would never commemorate Mu Siyun’s death anniversary. Mu Siyin was always alone every year.
She placed down the umbrella and walked towards the tombstone. Then, she put down the flowers and arranged the offerings before looking at Mu Siyun’s picture. She let out a soft sigh. “I’m here to see you today, Sis.”
“Time flies. In a blink of an eye, you’ve already left this world for 12 years. Are you and Mom… doing well over the other side?”
The sky was still cloudy. As the rain drizzled, Mu Siyin’s long hair and clothes gradually turned damp. However, she seemed unfazed by this. Like the previous years, she simply faced the cold tomb and began to pour her heart out about everything that had happened to her lately.
Time ticked by the second, but Mu Siyin had no intention to leave. In the past years, she would only stay at the tomb for half a day. However, today, Mu Siyin did not feel like leaving despite the rain.
Suddenly, light footsteps rang out from behind her. Before she managed to turn her head around, an umbrella shaded her from the rain…
