Translator: 549690339

September 1st, the day when the new school year begins.

Early in the morning, the Zhu residence was already bustling with activity.

Ming Ti and Ming Chen came downstairs, hand in hand, wearing brand new uniforms and carrying new school bags.

Madam Zhou smiled broadly as she looked at the beautiful twin sisters.

Ming Yi, who was about to report to kindergarten, also came down the stairs, dressed in a pretty little skirt and carrying a pink school bag, holding Han Suwen’s hand.

Madam Zhou thought to herself that although her young mistresses were not as beautiful as their elder sister, they were still one in a hundred, clever and pretty. Who knows how many young men would be infatuated with them when they grow up.

Ming Yi saw Ming Jing sitting at the dining table and happily jumped over: “Senior sister, I’m going to kindergarten today. Aunt Wen says there will be many children to play with me.”

Ming Jing smiled and patted her head: “Eat your breakfast first, then I will take you to the kindergarten later.”

“Oh yeah, that’s great!” Ming Yi jumped with joy.

Ming Chen sighed in disappointment, glaring at the oblivious Ming Yi. She was annoyed that this little girl got the attention first.

Ming Jing glanced at Ming Chen and Ming Ti sitting opposite her and said indifferently: “Today is also your first day at school. Remember to be cautious and prudent at school, remain patient in difficult situations. My help for you will be limited. From today on, the road of your lives will be under your own feet.”

The two nodded in unison: “We understand, senior sister.”

Ming Jing nodded: “Eat your breakfast.”

After breakfast, Ming Ti and Ming Chen left by car; Ming Jing then took Ming Yi’s hand, with Han Suwen carrying the school bag behind them, and they left the Zhu residence together.

Zhou Bao had left three days ago, returning to school to prepare for the new semester.

The once bustling Zhu family mansion suddenly became empty.

Half an hour later, Lin Qing came downstairs, looked around the empty dining room, and asked, “Where is everyone?”

Madam Zhou replied: “Today is the start of the school year, they all went to school.”

As she spoke, Madam Zhou placed hot milk and sandwiches on the dining table in front of Lin Qing.

Lin Qing looked a little dazed. Zhu Xiangxiang’s taste had been influenced by her, and she usually had a western-style breakfast of milk and sandwiches.

Ming Jing and her sisters, on the other hand, always had a traditional Chinese breakfast.

Lin Qing took a sip of milk, her expression softened for a moment as if she thought of something.

Regaining her senses, she looked at the empty hall again, feeling melancholy.

After only a few bites, Lin Qing got up and went upstairs.

Madam Zhou looked at the sandwich that had been bitten only twice and sighed.

Lin Qing opened Zhu Xiangxiang’s room and walked inside. Everything was the same as when they had left. The sheets and quilt cover were Xiangxiang’s favorite purple, and a violin sat on a shelf in the corner, a birthday present that Lin Qing had bought for her from a collector at a high price when she turned nine.

Lin Qing caressed the violin, a vision of a young girl playing the violin by the window appeared before her eyes.

She had been nurturing her for sixteen years, and unlike plants, humans have feelings.

She could still remember all the times Xiangxiang had sat on her lap, the gentle swaying of her arm when she wanted a gift, the flattering and fawning looks she offered, the fury in her eyes when they had quarreled, and how she had attentively looked after her when she was sick.

When and how did everything change?

It was after Ming Jing’s return.

Ming Jing was her biological daughter, and because of a moment of negligence years ago, she had changed the destiny of two children.

But was it her fault?

No, it was just a joke played by fate.

Lin Qing stroked the beautiful dresses in the wardrobe, imagining Xiangxiang wearing them with elegance and grace.

She wondered how she was doing in her new home.

Lin Qing thought to herself that she would sneak a peek at her once, just a glance from afar, as long as she saw Xiangxiang living well, she would be relieved.

Xiao Ying saw Lin Qing walking out of Zhu Xiangxiang’s room and was surprised. Could it be that Madam still missed Zhu Xiangxiang?

She quickly ran to the side and made a phone call, “Wenwen, something’s wrong…”

Han Suwen hung up the phone and watched from afar as Ming Yi held her teacher’s hand and walked into the kindergarten.

This was the most expensive bilingual kindergarten in the entire Jiangzhou, costing more than three hundred thousand a year in tuition fees.

There was no way that the Han family could afford such a kindergarten. Han Suwen didn’t know what else she could say besides being grateful.

She returned to the car and whispered, “Miss, after you left, Madam went to Zhu Xiangxiang’s room and stayed there for a long time. She then changed her clothes and went out.”

Han Suwen thought to herself that Lin Qing simply couldn’t let go, creating more problems for herself.
