    "Rest assured, my family doesn’t live here, this is my home alone. Come in quickly."

    Without further ado, Bai Yixuan pulled Ling Chuxia into the apartment, and all of the furnishings immediately caught her eye.

    The deep blue TV wall gave the entire house a feeling of tranquility and warmth, much like the impression Bai Yixuan himself conveyed, unlike Shi Che, who favored a very gloomy and cold color palette, making one feel even colder.

    At that thought, Ling Chuxia’s heart inadvertently shuddered. What was happening to her? She had clearly agreed to forget Shi Che, so why...why did she always think of him involuntarily? As if a single phrase, a single item, could connect to Shi Che.

    No, she couldn’t go on like this!

    Ling Chuxia suddenly shook her head forcefully, trying to rid her mind of all thoughts rted to Shi Che, to erase thempletely.

    "So Xiaxia, feel free to live here, and if you need anything, you can tell me directly...Xiaxia? What’s wrong with you?"

    Bai Yixuan was simply introducing the apartment to Ling Chuxia, but when he turned to look at her, she was shaking her head violently, and herplexion suddenly turned pale. His brows furrowed deeply in concern, "Xiaxia, are you feeling unwell?"

    Hearing Bai Yixuan’s voice brought Ling Chuxia back to reality. She slowly lifted her eyes to meet his concerned gaze, her heart chilled, and she hurriedly began to speak, "Brother Xuan, I’m sorry...I..."

    She spoke for a while but couldn’t figure out how to exin her odd behavior.

    Her eyes flickered, her spirit wasn’t great, and it seemed like her heart was burdened with a lot of things.

    Bai Yixuan’s gaze was fixed on her face, watching motionlessly for a while before finally suppressing his curiosity and smiling again, "It’s fine, if you don’t want to talk, there’s no need. Xiaxia, I see you’re tired from the journey today. You should rest. In here, pick any room you like, and feel free to use anything you want. Don’t be shy; treat it like your own home."

    Bai Yixuan’s considerateck of prying allowed Ling Chuxia to breathe a sigh of relief, but...was she really going to live here? With Brother Xuan?

    Although...he was her Brother Xuan, but...after all these years without seeing each other, and...alone, man and woman...

    Ling Chuxia’s dark pupils shed, biting her lower lip and hesitantly beginning to speak, "Brother Xuan, I...I feel that..."

    Bai Yixuan seemed to anticipate what Ling Chuxia was going to say and took the initiative to speak again, "Rest assured, I won’t be living here. You can settle in with peace of mind."

    A warm current surged through her heart. Ling Chuxia couldn’t help but look up at Bai Yixuan, her eyes trembling, and she found herself at a loss for words until finally, she moved her lips and whispered, "Brother Xuan, thank you, truly thank you."

    "All right, get some rest," Bai Yixuan said before heading toward the door. After a few steps, he paused suddenly and turned around to speak, "By the way, Xiaxia, what’s your phone number?"

    Phone number...

    Ling Chuxia’s hand unconsciously clenched as she replied, "I lost my SIM card and haven’t bought a new one yet."

    Bai Yixuan was somewhat surprised but didn’tment further, simply nodding his head, "All right, when Ie see you tomorrow, I’ll bring you a new number. Xiaxia, rest early."

    Once Bai Yixuan left, the room waspletely quiet. Ling Chuxia opened her purse and took out her phone, her hand unintentionally tapping open the photo album.
