Second Rebirth: I Want Another Ending! - 23 Hesitance

Almost immediately after, Xueyu took Shi Zhen’s hand and navigate them out of the garden. Shi Zhen was speechless at the display.

At least let him have closer look!

Truthfully, Xueyu purposely restrained Shi Zhen from seeing the full view of the garden. She didn’t want to get close enough him to spectate everything. While she trusts her master judgement on people, she was still reminded of Rue Rong and Meiyi Su.

Xueyu’s hand subconsciously tighten into a fist.

On her first life, she wanted to marry Rue Rong… but Xueyu had also wanted her master approval. They say master was your second parent, Xueyu never had parents so Zhou Yun was her only!

She didn’t try to contact her master, she took Rue Rong back to the valley, wishing to surprise him… When she returned to an empty shack, she didn’t think much of it and cheerfully pulled Rue Rong around the valley, showing him all their treasures. The garden was the first thing she had show him…

She thought her master would be there… But he was nowhere in the Garden… he wasn’t in the Bamboo Forest either…. not even by the Old Well.

As the pair searched through the valley, Rue Rong’s greedy heart grew larger and larger, Xueyu’s heart just grew heavy with worries.

They never found him…

The urge to sees her master immediately appear…

This time, the mist had begun clearing up slightly, Shi Zhen was still sulking behind Xueyu. They had walked through most of the thing Xueyu wanted to show him but his thought constantly was drawn back to the garden.

Feeling a bit guilty for being so uptight toward a thirteen-year-old, Xueyu tried to start a conversation.

She wrote in the air: What is Master teaching you?

“I don’t know.”

It is such a lovely day today.

“It’s too misty to tell.”

“…”

The silence grew and Xueyu shifted uncomfortably, her lack of communication was showing.

Shi Zhen noticed Xueyu’s discomfort but he didn’t mind it. He was too absorbed into the thought of the garden.

“Xueyu, Shi Zhen.”.
