Chapter 349
348, Self-Deprecation (1 Update)
Some people, no matter what happens, good girls are always good girls, their value never diminishes because of anything. They continue to stand firm, and they make themselves shine.
Xie Zhinuan remembered how she was back then, gentle and beautiful, sitting there, catching one’s eye at a glance.
Her eyes were bright, pure, and penetrating, the most beautiful he had ever seen, so dazzling that he dared not look directly at them.
Today, she was still gentle and beautiful, and more men knew of her beauty, lingering around her.
No matter what the outcome was, admiration and affection were definitely not to be missed.
And he…
Within these men, he had no prominent family background, his talent was not the most outstanding, so even his admiration had to be carefully concealed, not to be discovered by anyone, to avoid bringing her any trouble.
Wang Shaoyu felt he was very cowardly.
He walked ahead, with Xuan Mu following behind.
Xuan Mu was also not at peace, glancing back several times at the direction from which Xie Zhinuan had left.
There, Xie Zhinuan’s figure had long disappeared.
“…”
Xuan Mu pursed his lips, feeling an intense pain in his chest.
The rims of his eyes grew red, he felt like crying, but he also knew, at this moment, he could not cry.
He caught up to Wang Shaoyu, “Brother Wang, talk to me again, will you?”

“About what?” Wang Shaoyu asked knowingly.Feeling somewhat displeased.
“About Nuannuan, talk to me about her again…”
Wang Shaoyu looked at Xuan Mu indifferently, “I’ve only met Miss Xie a few times, I don’t know much about her, and there’s not much to say, moreover, it’s not good for me to keep talking about Xie Zhinuan!”
“…” Xuan Mu was stunned, hurriedly apologizing, “It was thoughtless of me!”
Meanwhile,
Xie Rong chased after Xie Zhinuan, “Zhinuan, Zhinuan!”
Perhaps guessing something, Xie Zhinuan was a bit more tolerant towards Xie Rong.
But, when it came to sibling affection, she really didn’t feel much.
As for recognizing Xie Rong as her brother, she couldn’t do it yet.
Responding indifferently, Xie Zhinuan slowed her pace while holding Xie Yi.
“Zhinuan, about your earlier question, can I still answer it?” Xie Rong asked softly.
His eyes hopeful as he gazed at Xie Zhinuan.
Xie Zhinuan paused slightly, laughed lightly, “No need to answer now, it was just a question, it didn’t mean anything!”
For now, she didn’t want to know too much, didn’t want to confirm her suspicions; the appearance of Xuan Mu had already thrown her into turmoil.
This feeling of occupying someone else’s body was unpleasant.
The original body’s love, she was destined not to be able to reciprocate, nor could she clarify things with Xuan Mu. She could only watch the man the original body loved fall into suffering, unable to do or say anything, feigning deafness and mute.
Xie Zhinuan felt that such a self was unlikable and annoying, but she couldn’t do or say anything.
Feeling conflicted inside, her guilt was already heavy. Now with a brother and a family emerging, how was she to choose?
Should she just go with the flow and acknowledge her family?
Or not acknowledge them?
Both were difficult choices.
“Brother Xie!” Xie Zhinuan suddenly called out softly.
“Hmm?”
Xie Zhinuan looked at Xie Rong, “Do you have something you particularly want to obtain? Gold and silver treasures, or perhaps Peerless Martial Arts?”
“Ah, ha, haha, my family has gold and silver treasures, and money is an external possession. As for Peerless Martial Arts, do you have something good in your hands?” Xie Rong leaned towards Xie Zhinuan, asking with a smile.
“I do, but the question is, do you want it, big brother?” Xie Zhinuan smiled as she asked, stuffing Xie Yi into his arms.
She had decided.
Even if she didn’t acknowledge him, during their interactions, she would treat Xie Rong a bit better, even better.
