Chapter 2163: Chapter 531: Till Our Hair Turns White, Never Leaving or Forsaking

Outside the massive floor-to-ceiling window, the sunlight is just right, with flocks of birds perched among the treetops. Yun Ya sits quietly at the dining table, having breakfast while the servants work dispersed yet orderly.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling window, there’s a lush camphor tree. Amidst the foliage, the leaves shimmer, rustling softly. If your eyesight is good, you’ll notice a petite figure nimbly leaping between the branches, more agile than a monkey.

The birds, startled, flap their wings and fly away.

A small head emerges from the tree, lively eyebrows and eyes, a spirited aura, even more captivating than the blazing sun.

Grasping several small sparrows in her left and right hands, they start chirping frantically.

Qinglan, raising her brows with pride, smiles at Yun Ya, "Miss, we’ve got roasted birds again today. The meat of these little sparrows is the tastiest."

Ah Yun’s eyes brighten with a "whoosh", she licks her lips, looking forward eagerly.

Yun Ya smiles, setting down her chopsticks, and shakes her head, "These little creatures, how can you bear to harm them? Quickly set them free."

"The survival of the fittest is the rule of this world. Isn’t it normal for me to eat them?" Qinglan leans her body to the side, almost falling. The branch is one or two meters from the ground, a fall would be painful. Ah Yun gasps, covering her mouth.

Qinglan extends her arms, descending towards the ground. Suddenly, her legs hook like a golden hook, swinging between the treetops like a swing, arms folded, and she gives Ah Yun a triumphant raise of her eyebrows.

Ah Yun pats her chest, feeling the thrill. Though knowing Qinglan is very skilled, she can’t help but worry for her.

Suddenly, there’s a light "crack" sound, the branch Qinglan hangs on suddenly snaps. Seeing Qinglan about to fall again, Ah Yun’s heart races.

Qinglan flips her body mid-air, seeing the sparrows about to slip from her fingers, fluttering their wings trying to fly towards the sky. Qinglan, quick as an arrow, leaps upwards—a scene defying gravity that everyone present is already accustomed to.

Successfully catching the escaped birds back in her grasp, only one escapes dangerously from her clutches, flapping its wings swiftly disappearing into the sky.

"You’ve got guts, I admire you, kid," Qinglan floats down like a feather, smiling towards the sky where the bird vanished.

The little sparrows in her hand start chirping again. Qinglan gazes at their scene of eager anticipation, her clear eyes filled with struggle and fear. She raises her brows, releasing her grip so the sparrows immediately scramble to flap their wings and fly away, quickly disappearing into the sky.

Ah Yun rushes out, "Sister Qing, why did you let them go? I wanted to eat your roast meat." She smacks her lips; it really tastes so good.

Qinglan mischievously knocks her head, "How come you didn’t learn the kindness from Miss, but instead became more violent?"

Ah Yun points at herself puzzled, "Me, violent?"

Qinglan mimics the chattering tone from the movies, prolonging her voice, "Birds are so cute, how can you bear to eat them?" She says this and smiles as she walks away.

Ah Yun stomps her foot in frustration, "Sister Qing, you are so naughty..."

At that moment, the butler reports that Miss Lin has arrived, Lin Sili is here with her daughter to visit Yun Ya. After a few days without seeing each other, little Nuannuan is very affectionate towards Yun Ya, clinging to her without letting go. Yun Ya enjoys playing with children; her gentle and serene aura is well-loved by them. Nuannuan clings to Yun Ya even more than to Lin Sili.

Yun Ya notices the slight fatigue between Lin Sili’s brows and can’t help but ask, "Haven’t rested well lately? Or is there some problem?"

Lin Sili startles for a moment, shaking her head, "No..."

Yun Ya raises an eyebrow, "Has he come back?"

Lin Sili’s heart is suddenly pierced, lowering her head, speechless. Yun Ya looks down to tease Nuannuan, who giggles cleanly and innocently, making Yun Ya feel cheerful as well.

After a while, Lin Sili’s voice comes softly, tainted with anxiety and helplessness, "Yun Ya... I... what should I do?"

Yun Ya smiles, "Follow your heart. Life is only a few decades long; don’t let your life have regrets. In any case, I’m here by your side. What is there to fear?"

Lin Sili, shocked, raises her head, looking at Yun Ya’s trusting gaze. She can’t help feeling a warmth in her eyes, "Yun Ya...."

Yun Ya smilingly wipes away her tears, "A woman’s tears should be saved for the man who cherishes her."

Lin Sili wipes her tears and nods. Yun Ya’s words undoubtedly give her tremendous courage and strength. In times when she’s fallen to rock bottom, it’s always Yun Ya who pulls her back. The greatest fortune of her life is being able to meet her.
