Zhao Nuanyue understood Li Qiong's curiosity and wasn't bothered by it.
"Heh, even if I worry, it's no use. He still has to complete his mission," Zhao Nuanyue replied slowly, her expression serene. "Missing him is unavoidable, but I have my own life, too. You see, my brother Nuanyang is getting his health back, and I have my adorable little sister, Little Red Carp. My life has never been just about a man. The most important parts are myself, and my family."
Li Qiong was stunned by Zhao Nuanyue's words.
'My life is never just about a man—I also have myself!'
'Myself!'
Li Qiong suddenly felt enlightened. The gloominess that had plagued her for days vanished, and she broke into a joyful laugh. "Nuanyue, thank you!"
"Huh?" Zhao Nuanyue was taken aback, completely puzzled. "What are you thanking me for?"
