In the tea house, melodious and ethereal island singing tunes flowed, and the faint fragrance of tea filled the air, refreshing the mind and body.
Mu Xin opened the door and walked in, took off her sunglasses, looked around, and immediately saw the long-haired woman sitting in the corner.
The way she held the tea was like a picture of comfort and comfort. The afternoon sun spread softly around her, forming a dazzling circle of light, a faint luster, elegant and beautiful.
Mu Xin walked straight towards her and asked with certainty in her voice, "Xia Lan?"
Xia Lan raised her head and smiled slightly, "Mu Xin?"
The two had never met before, but they could quickly recognize each other, which somewhat broke the awkwardness of the subsequent conversation.
"Haha, I didn't expect that Jue's wife is a beauty." Mu Xin chuckled and sat across from her.
Xia Lan tilted her head, looked at her with gentle and delicate eyes, and smiled, "My eldest brother has a good eye."
Mu Xin frowned when she heard her mention soul chasing.
Xia Lan is known as the "Flower of the Legal Industry". The lawyer is not a fake. He is very observant and is definitely a professional. After seeing the expression on Mu Xin's face, Xia Lan did not panic and poured her a cup of tea. They chatted casually.
He said, "Mu Xin, although this is our first meeting, I have heard a lot about you."
"Thank you," Mu Xin picked up the tea cup and smelled it first. Suddenly, the anxiety in her heart seemed to be diluted a lot by the tea, "Haha, me too. As long as Jue comes over, he will hang you and your little devils on the wall.
On the lips."
Xia Lan blinked at her, "The one he talks about a lot lately is my little boy. He is very smart and has a way of coaxing his daddy."
"Really? Jue must love him the most!"
"I don't just love him, he's almost doting on me." Xia Lan stroked her forehead and said helplessly, "But fortunately, the younger brother and sister never care about him. Instead, they dote on this brother like Jue. I usually say something harsh to him, and that's it.
It will attract three glares." She said meaningfully, "This is blood relationship, and it will tolerate everything forever."
Mu Xin laughed when she heard this, "Why don't you bring your son here with you? I really want to meet this clever little guy."
Xia Lan raised her eyes and chuckled, "I came here specifically to see you."
"Oh?" Mu Xin wasn't too surprised. She vaguely knew the answer, but was waiting for her to speak.
Xia Lan stopped beating around the bush and said bluntly, "Mu Xin, I'm here just to tell you something personally about... my brother."
Mu Xin bit her lip, feeling panicked, and took a sip of tea in a covert manner.
Although she was curious about Chaihun's past, she never took the initiative to ask any insider. Because she understood the pain of forbidden love, and not everyone was qualified to remove the scar.
Xia Lan's wise eyes were crystal clear, and they were so magnanimous that they could not tolerate any blasphemy. Turning her thoughts back, she slowly spoke, "The face you see now does not actually belong to me."
With this sentence, Mu Xin raised his head in shock, opened his eyes wide, and looked at her blankly.
Xia Lan didn't care and said with a smile, "I've been used to seeing people in the mirror every day for so many years."
"Then... what happened?" Mu Xin asked cautiously, vaguely feeling that this matter must be related to chasing souls.
Xia Lan always had a natural expression. When talking about that past event, she only felt emotion, not hatred.
"At that time, he didn't know that we were brother and sister. So, he fell in love, deeply in love. When all the truth came out, he couldn't bear the result. Later, I became pregnant, and it happened that at that time, I was pregnant.
It's an accident..." She paused, and Mu Xin's heart also rose, and he looked at her for a moment.
"He was the one who saved me. When I was in a coma, I gave birth to a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. But he hid my daughter and lied to me that I only gave birth to one son, causing me to be completely separated from my daughter.
Four years! And..." Touching her current face, Xia Lan slowed down, "At that time, he changed my appearance, smoothed my fingerprints, and destroyed everything that could prove my identity.
, just to make it impossible for Jue to find me anymore... just like that, he imprisoned me for more than a year."
After listening to this, Mu Xin's face turned pale, as if her heart had been hit by a heavy hammer, and the pain spread throughout her limbs.
Maybe, if it were someone else, she would only see the cruelty of chasing a soul. But she understood how deeply painful it would be to fall in love with someone who was destined to be the wrong person. When he hurt her, no one would be more sad and heartbroken than him.
.
At that moment, she didn't feel how terrible this man was. Instead, she felt heartbroken, so much that her heart was bleeding.
Does he hate himself just because of this past? Does he feel that he no longer deserves love?
Chaihun, you are really stupid...
For a long time, Mu Xin looked at Xia Lan with complicated eyes, "Don't you... hate him?"
Gently, Xia Lan shook her head, "I tried, but I can't hate someone who hurt me because he loves me... my only relative in the world." She smiled, raised her bright eyes, "Mu Xin
, seeing you, the last knot in my heart has been knotted."
Mu Xin murmured and asked, "Why?"
"You know? This is the first time he has taken the initiative to call me in many years. For him, this requires a lot of courage! If it weren't for you, he wouldn't be able to do it, and he would still live in a world closed by himself.
." Xia Lan sighed and said, "He is actually more afraid of loneliness than anyone else. In order to atone for his sins, he forces himself to endure it. Even if he made mistakes and was hurt before, that's enough. I don't want him to suffer like this anymore.
.”
Looking back, she gently held Mu Xin's hand and said softly, "This past can only be brought to an end if I tell you personally."
"Xia Lan..." Mu Xin covered her hand again, held it tightly, and said with an emotional expression, "I would like to say thank you for Zhuihun, thank you for forgiving him."
Xia Lan returned to her refreshing and elegant smile, "He has begun to come out of that shadow, so help him be happy."
Staring at her, Mu Xin smiled in relief.
The fog cleared, and she finally saw a flesh-and-blood Soul Chaser. Because of love, he had been cruel, painful, and regretful. But now, she would never allow him to back down again!
On the way back to the company, she dialed the phone number.
The phone just rang, and someone immediately answered the call, as if they had been waiting on the phone, "Mu Xin?"
Hearing his eager voice, the smile on Mu Xin's lips spread gently, "Hun, I met Xia Lan."
