Chapter 231: He Was That Teenager That Saved Her That Year? (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mu Sihan opened his tightly-clenched fists. His palm was facing up as he stretched his fingers out in front of Nan Zhi.

Nan Zhi looked down at his large palm.

A white and exquisite shirt button lay there, quiet and unassuming.

It was a button whose design, pattern and size Nan Zhi had seen for about nine years.

She was very familiar with it.

It was her lucky button.

How?

Nan Zhi wanted to take the button instinctively. However, the man clenched his hand into a fist before she could react.

He did not let her take another look.





No. The button he was holding did not have the smiley face she had drawn on it.

But why was it exactly the same?

Nan Zhi's brain was a mess...

Why?

Mu Sihan did not say anything more at the sight of her tightly furrowed eyebrows, as he noticed her long lashes trembling slightly. He walked in front of his luggage and took out a few boxes from inside. He changed the conversation. "There are many mosquitoes on this mountain. You should keep these."

By now, the sun had already set completely. The facilities in the fortress' hostel was simple. For lighting, they still retained the light bulbs used during the 80s and it was dim. Not to mention that he had his back facing her, she could not see his expression at all.

Although she could hear his voice, the words did not penetrate her messy thoughts and her face was listless and confused.

All of her attention was on that button.

Then she seemed to have thought of something. Her body shook a little before she rushed out of the room.

Xia Xi was discussing what to eat for dinner with Zhang Yijun, when she was startled by Nan Zhi rushing over all of a sudden.

"Sister Zhi, what's wrong with you?"

"Xiao Xi, where's my bag?"

Judging from Nan Zhi's panicked expression, Xia Xi thought that something had happened and answered hurriedly, "I put the bag in my uncle's room. I'll take you to get it now?"

"Okay, let's go."

...

Xia Xi passed Nan Zhi's bag to her and Nan Zhi scrambled around inside frantically, before she finally took out her lucky button from the inner pocket.



The smiley face was still there.

Why would Mu Sihan have a button that was exactly the same as hers?

Countless memories flashed past in Nan Zhi's mind.

'Are you a pig? You're a stupid and ugly pig!'

'Why are you so heavy? Can't you just eat less?'

That big brother had piggybacked her after he saved her from the kidnappers. She had a high fever and heard him scolding her in her fever-induced daze.
