How else could someone remember another person’s past so clearly?

Could it be anything other than love?

As Nanxi watched Ye Yuchen laugh, she sensed that the smile was forced.

As a woman, she knew her intuition was always right.

She could tell that Ye Yuchen was hostile towards her.

On the other hand, Nanxi believed that while Li Weihuan didn’t detest Ye Yuchen, neither did he favor her.

They were childhood friends, who had shared many years together.

Could there be some affection?

Nanxi wondered, had Li Weihuan not met her, would he have spent his life with a girl like Ye Yuchen instead?

Upon contemplation, that wouldn’t have been too bad either!

In the end, it seemed, she was the one who had inflicted pain on him.

Li Xiangchen arrived looking healthy, which relieved Nanxi.

Out of everyone in the Li family, he was the only one who had been kind to her, and for that, she was grateful at heart.

After some more small talk, Qi Qun directed Li Mufang to check on the dinner preparations.

They had guests tonight and she didn’t want dinner to be served too late.

Li Mufang nodded and went to check.

A flicker crossed Nanxi’s gaze, she was unsure who Qi Qun referred to as the ‘guest’ – was it Ye Yuchen, or was it her?

At the dinner table, Qi Qun forced a smile and tried to suppress her resentment.

In fear of upsetting Li Weihuan, she urged Nanxi to have more food.

Nanxi smiled and thanked her.

Ignoring Nanxi’s response, Qi Qun turned her head towards Ye Yuchen and engaged her in conversation about her experience studying abroad in England.

Ye Yuchen was quite the conversationalist and appeared to get along very well with Qi Qun.

This change in Qi Qun’s attitude was her final forfeiture.

She tried to make it clear to Nanxi through her distinct attitudes towards both girls – what qualities she desired and acknowledged in her daughter-in-law.

At least, Nanxi couldn’t compete.

Throughout the meal, Nanxi was silent.

Li Weihuan, seated beside her, served her the dishes she liked.

However, unbeknownst to him, she had absolutely no appetite.

In the middle of the meal, Li Weihuan’s phone rang.

The servant brought over his phone.

Nanxi glanced at the name displayed on the screen: Second Uncle.
