Ling Yiran suddenly chuckled. "Sis, did you really save Gu Lichen when you were little?"
Hua Lifang glared at her. "Would Lichen be so nice to me if I hadn't saved him when I was little?"
"But I don't think you liked going to the hill when you were little, right? I was the one who always went there for fun," said Ling Yiran.
Hua Lifang's face paled. "What... Do you mean by that? What does saving Lichen have to do with whether I liked going there or not? Anyway, I happened to save Lichen on an occasional trip."
"Happened to?" Ling Yiran looked at the shifty look in her eyes and was already sure that her cousin was guilty, so she evaded her like that.
It must not have been Sis Lifang who saved Gu Lichen.
"Yiran, have you had enough?" Hua Lifang said angrily as she was embarrassed. She deliberately used anger to cover up her guilt. "It's not up to you to meddle in this matter between me and Lichen. Just mind your own business!"
With that, Hua Lifang stormed off.
Ling Yiran lowered her eyes gently and looked at her hands. 'If the dream is all about me saving Gu Lichen when I was little…
'Then these hands were there on the cliff, holding Gu Lichen by the hand tightly and dragging him back to safety.
'These same hands carried him on my back and led him down from the hill.
'Therefore... The silver bracelet Gu Lichen has been holding on to is also the silver bracelet I wore when I was a child?'
She remembered having a pair of such silver bracelets when she was a child, but she dropped one of them. Later, when she was older and could not wear the little bracelet anymore, Grandma put it away for her.
'However... I didn’t see any similar little bracelets among the things Grandma left me.
"Sure," said Gu Lichen as he nodded and walked right past Ling Yiran without even looking at her.
Ling Yiran raised her eyes and watched as the two got into the car which then slowly drove away from the Lu family's house.
'When they were little?' Ling Yiran's eyes dimmed slightly. 'I think I'm the one who said I'd take Gu Lichen to eat candied haws on a stick when we were little.'
Speaking of which, her favorite food at the time was candied haws on a stick, and that particular store was still open.
'I wonder if Hua Lifang is taking Gu Lichen there or not.'
Ling Yiran opened the door and got into the car. She gave the exact location of Grandma's burial place, and the driver in front drove off to their destination.
