The two were talking about something, but Mingyue could not hear anything .
After a while, the old man grabbed an old book . Inside, there were drawings and notes on various herbs .
The old man flipped through the book and stopped when he reached a page . On the paper was a drawing of a type of grass with a red flower and yellow rim .
Lin Mingyue peek to see what was written on that page . She could not read much, except for the name of the herbs, 'Shadow Grass . '

AdvertisementLin Mingyue blinked as she woke up . She stared at the ceiling and recalled that she was hospitalized after an accident in the woods .
Swiftly, Mingyue tried to sit up .
"Slowly! You're still injured," her mother smiled, but the smile quickly disappeared and was replaced with panic . "Mingyue, why are you crying?"
"What?" Mingyue touched her cheek and was surprised to see her tears . It was then that she recalled her dreams . When she remembered that old man, her heart started to ache . The dream seemed so real . . .
"Don't cry, you're safe now," her mother coaxed . She pulled Mingyue into her embrace and patted her on her back . "Your sister woke up a few hours ago . Later, I'll bring you to see her, alright?"
Mingyue nodded . Her thought was still on that dream she had earlier . She tried to recall every single detail from the dream and stiffened when she remember the drawing on that book . The herb! She had seen it before! It was the herb Yang Yun had dug out back in the small village .
Was that only a dream? But everything felt so real . Like it was part of her memories .
Impossible!
The way the old man and the little girl dressed up, it did not look like it was part of this world .
Was she affected by Yang Yun's questions the other day?
"You must be hungry," her mother said as she pulled away to look at her daughter's face . "Do you want anything to eat?"
Her mother's question snapped her out of her thought . Mingyue stared at her mother's face and nodded . Soon, a maid served some porridge . Her mother sat by her side, watching and reminding her to eat slowly .
The two talked a bit, and Mingyue told her mother about what happened in the woods .
Lin Mingyue freshened up herself after breakfast and walked out of the room to see her sister . When she arrived, Mingyue saw Xue Yi Ming, Yang Yun, and her father stood outside the room .
Both Xue Yi Ming and Yang Yun bowed, and Lin's father quickly helped them up .
"What's wrong? Why are you all outside?" Lin's mother asked .
"Auntie, I was the one who suggested us to go hiking, but I did not look after your daughters properly . For that, I apologize," Xue Yi Ming said and bowed again, this time, to Lin's mother .
"What are you saying? It was an accident . Nobody thought that there would be a rainstorm," Lin's mother said . "Quickly, get up . We don't blame you . What's important is that my daughters are both safe . " she turned to look at Yang Yun with an inquiring gaze . "And this is?"
"Madam, my name is Yang Yun . "
"He's my friend," Xue Yi Ming said .
"Right," the smile on Lin's mother's face widened . "I heard from my daughter, Mingyue . You were the one who found them and brought the two of them out of the woods . Thank you . "
They exchanged a brief pleasantry before Lin's couple invited both Yang Yun and Xue Yi Ming over their house for a meal . Then, Lin's family went into the room to visit Lin Tian Yu while both Yang Yun and Xue Yi Ming sat down on the bench outside .
"Sorry," Yang Yun said . "Everything happened because you wanted to help me . Or else, you would not suggest to go hiking . "
Xue Yi Ming chuckled . "Didn't you hear what the Lin's family said? It was an accident . No one knows that it was going to rain, or the two would slip and fall down the hill . "
Yang Yun sighed as he tilted his head down . "I knew that you were trying to help Mingyue and me back in the woods . I am grateful that you wanted to help me . But sometimes, I don't understand why you wanted to help me . We did not know each other well before . "
"At first, it was because I got you into the accident . Then, it was to prove that I was not insane . And after a while, I considered you as a friend," Xue Yi Ming smiled . "Hearing your story…You got separated from your wife for years, and you had not given up to look for her and patiently stay by her side to make her remember, I guess the story touched me . At least one of us should have a happy ending . "
"What are you saying? You will get your happiness too . "
Xue Yi Ming chuckled . "I was rejected once . Although I tried to forget her and thought that I should date another woman, I can't forget her . It's just that; I can never understand why she chose to date someone like Yu Yong Zhe . " He frowned when he recalled the way that man had acted after both sisters fell .
Even when he saw Xue Yi Ming carrying Lin Tian Yu in his arm, Yu Yong Zhe did not offer to let him carry her . Instead, he was on the phone with his agent for hours . Even if Lin Tian Yu did not share the same feeling as he, could she at least find someone who really cares for her?
