Xiao Ying and Ming Yi also returned.

Ming Yi had an even sweeter mouth than Ming Chen, and she was blessed with pure innocence.

Liu Muxue fell for her act and gave her the pendant from around her neck.

Xiao Ying looked at the pendant, and it was a fancy brand diamond pendant worth several tens of thousands. The other party just gave it away easily.

The young ladies’ friends were really not ordinary people.

“Did all of you, including your second sister, grow up in the mountains? Were you all really nuns before?”

Liu Muxue looked at the three delicate and beautiful faces in front of her, which were completely different from the thin, malnourished, and slovenly little nuns she had imagined.

Was her understanding wrong?

Why was it so different from what she had imagined?

Ming Chen nodded obediently: “Yes, Sister Liu, we were all orphans taken in by Master. But after Master passed away, Senior Ming Jing let us return to secular life.”

Liu Muxue’s eyes darted around, “Then what about your Senior Sister?”

Ye Zhen was Ming Jing’s Senior Sister, and the five sisters always gave her a very strange feeling.

Ye Zhen didn’t look at all like someone who had lived a rough life in the mountains for sixteen years. When the two of them went shopping, Ye Zhen knew all about the luxury brands, had a lot of experience in dressing and skincare, and was even familiar with the food and customs of Jingzhou. At the time, Liu Muxue didn’t think much of it, but the more she thought about it, the stranger it seemed.

When they mentioned Senior Sister, the three of them looked sad at the same time. Ming Chen sighed, “Although I miss my sister, it’s not the right time to meet.”

She had a bit of Ming Jing’s demeanor, acting mature beyond her age.

Ming Ti secretly nudged Ming Chen, signaling her to keep her mouth shut and not reveal anything about their eldest sister to strangers.

Liu Muxue glanced at Ming Ti, who was very cautious. She hadn’t seen her smile from beginning to end.

“I just met your elder sister not long ago, didn’t your second sister tell you?” Liu Muxue raised her eyebrows and said.

The three of them simultaneously looked up in shock, incredulous, “Where did you meet our eldest sister?”

“In Jingzhou, of course. She was with your second sister the whole time, and then… she went to shoot a movie, I guess.”

“What? Eldest sister woke up? Why didn’t Second Sister tell us?” Ming Chen immediately dashed to the second floor.

“Second Sister, Second Sister, did our eldest sister wake up?”

Woke up?

Liu Muxue raised her eyebrows; it was getting stranger and stranger.

Ming Ti gave a wary glare at Liu Muxue before turning and running up to the second floor.

Liu Muxue looked at the quiet Ming Yi: “Why aren’t you going?”

Ming Yi smiled sweetly: “Second Sister will tell us when it’s time, why should we rush?”

——

“It’s true what she said, our eldest sister has indeed woken up.”

As soon as Ming Jing finished speaking, Ming Chen jumped up excitedly.

“Great, I want to see my eldest sister.”

Ming Jing shook her head: “Not now, our eldest sister has important things to attend to. Let’s just wait for another time.”

“But….”

Ming Chen still wanted to say something, but Ming Ti quickly pulled her back: “Isn’t it great that our eldest sister has woken up? We should do as our second sister says. We’re not in the temple anymore; our eldest sister has her own life too. She can’t be with us all the time.”

Ming Chen sighed.

“Alright.”

“But, second sister… can I at least make a phone call to our eldest sister? I just want to hear her voice, and I’ll be satisfied.”

The little girl’s eyes were so pitiful that it was hard to refuse.

While at the temple, Ming Chen loved to stick close to her senior sister. Ming Jing had always had an indifferent personality. Her junior sisters were somewhat afraid of her, especially when Ming Jing was teaching them to read and write. In their hearts, their second sister held a position similar to their Master, she was a strict teacher and a loving mother whom they must respect.

But their eldest sister was different; although she would sometimes bully and tease them, as well as scold them when they did something wrong, she would also be the first to stand up to protect them if they were being bullied. The eldest sister often went down the mountain and would secretly bring them snacks and do many interesting things to entertain them. In their hearts, she was just like a real sister.

Their feelings for their eldest sister were completely different from their respect for Ming Jing.

Ming Ti also showed a longing look.

Ming Jing was silent for a moment, “Tonight, you guys go eat dinner first.”

“Yay, second sister is the best.” Ming Chen hugged Ming Jing and flew away like a happy butterfly.

Ming Jing thought for a moment, then picked up her phone and called Ye Zhen.

It took three rings for the phone to be answered, “The emotions here need to be very intense, Teacher Zhou really deserves the title of Best Actor; his understanding is just too strong… hello….”Upon hearing Ye Zhen’s words, she glanced at the incoming call display and immediately sat up straight, apologetically looking at Zhou Zhengru sitting across from her and then went to the side with her phone.

“Ming Jing? I’m sorry, I just finished rehearsing with Zhou Zhengru. Are you back in Jiangzhou? I’m going to have to study some scripts soon, so I can’t go back.”

“It’s fine, your filming is more important.”

Ye Zhen found it very strange that Ming Jing would call her, as Ming Jing wasn’t the type to call without a specific reason or to ask how she was doing. Her personality was indifferent to the point that…how to put it… Ye Zhen stood by the hotel’s floor-to-ceiling window, watching the sunset’s afterglow.

It was like a wisp of floating clouds on the horizon, visible but untouchable.

Her calling you would truly make you feel flattered.

“Ye Zhen.” Ming Jing started, and somehow, Ye Zhen detected a trace of hesitation in her voice.

Could Ming Jing actually be hesitant? That was truly unprecedented.

Ye Zhen focused intently, ready for anything, as she predicted that the words Ming Jing was about to say were of great importance.

“When you have time later on, give your juniors a call. They know you’re awake, they’re happy, and they want to talk to you.”

Ye Zhen was startled.

The “her” Ming Jing was referring to wasn’t Ye Zhen, but Ming Xin.

Ye Zhen didn’t feel at all disappointed. Instead, a great joy surged in her heart.

This meant that Ming Jing had accepted her, otherwise, she wouldn’t let her know about this.

This phone call meant that she was going to be integrated into Ming Xin’s life.

“I… I understand, I’ll call them later.” Ye Zhen’s voice trembled slightly.

Ming Jing didn’t say anything more, just hung up the phone directly.

Ye Zhen stared blankly at the disconnected phone, suddenly covering her mouth as tears “pitter-pattered” down.

Her existence meant the disappearance of Ming Xin.

Ye Zhen knew she shouldn’t be so selfish, but she couldn’t help it.

Ming Xin, rest assured, I will definitely take good care of your juniors. Please fulfill this selfish wish of mine.

Ye Zhen wiped her tears and turned back to the table.

Zhou Zhengru raised an eyebrow and handed her a tissue.

“Did something happen?”

Ye Zhen shook her head: “No, it’s just that I’m too happy.”

The girl broke into a smile through her tears, finally unable to hold back any longer and began to cry. But her tears were not of grief, they were bright and piercing after being washed with water.

Zhou Zhengru smiled, stood up, and gently patted her shoulder. Ye Zhen leaned against his shoulder and wept.

Ever since she had died inexplicably, she had never cried no matter how difficult her journey had been. Because tears were useless in her life, they only made her weaker.

So she built herself a hard shell, shielding her heart from everyone.

However, when Ming Jing spoke those words just now, her strength crumbled to pieces.

Her relatives treated her like a cash cow, her friends betrayed her, and her lover exploited and brutally killed her…

Her life had become a tragedy.

“I have a family now, I have a family…”, she kept repeating, her voice choked with emotion, on the verge of breaking down.

Like a new sprout breaking through the withered earth, it welcomed a new beginning under the nourishment of sunlight and rain.

Zhou Zhengru looked at the girl crying in pain, and his heart suddenly ached,

He lowered his gaze, sighed gently, and pulled her into his embrace.

“In Greek mythology, there is a bird that, when close to death, builds a nest using fragrant branches, and then burns itself in the flames. When the branches are nearly burnt out, a new bird will emerge from the fire and anoint the previous bird with myrrh, and they will fly together towards the city of the sun…”

Your eyes are the most beautiful sight I’ve ever seen in this world.

It’s a spark ignited in the desperate situation that will burn everything eventually. I’m willing to offer a sacrifice.

From now on, let me be the immortal bird that protects you.

Ye Zhen suddenly came to her senses and pushed him away with all her might.

Ye Zhen wished she could slap herself. Wasn’t what she had gone through with Xue An enough? Did she want to fall into the same trap twice?

Ye Zhen was now afraid of the word “actor.”

Zhou Zhengru was indeed perfect, an impeccable actor with great character.

However, Xue An had been even more perfect in his deception back then.

Zhou Zhengru was taken aback, looked at his empty palm and shook his head with a bitter smile.
