Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 535: Chapter 535: The Power of Love (Bonus Chapter)

”What’s been wrong with him these past few days?”

When Gu Lingling returned, she saw Yao Jingsong listlessly sitting in the room, looking lost and dazed.

”Who knows? He’s been like this since he came back that day,” Grandma Yao said, then asked her, ”When is Enen leaving? I have prepared some things for her here.”

”Just in the next couple of days,” Gu Lingling said, ”Just thinking about that girl leaving, and not being able to see her for a long time, really makes me reluctant.”

”Isn’t that the truth?” Grandma Yao squinted her eyes as she threaded a needle. Gu Lingling walked over and took the needle and thread from her hands to help thread it properly. ”How does this dress look? It won’t be out of place in the Capital City, will it?”

Because Zhao Si’en was leaving in a hurry, the new clothes Grandma Yao was making for her were not yet finished.

She’s already worrying about whether the style of these clothes will be looked down upon in the Capital City.

”It looks great,” Gu Lingling said with a smile.

Turning her head, she saw Zhao Si’en standing at the door with red eyes; she had heard their conversation just now.

”Enen? You... why are you here?” Gu Lingling exclaimed in surprise.

Just as she finished speaking, she heard the door of the adjacent room slam open, and then Yao Jingsong rushed to the door like a shot, ”Why... why are you crying? Did someone bully you? Was it Wang Lanhua? Or Ge Ergou?”

His voice was chillingly cold by the end.

If those two were here, they would surely be scared witless by his gloomy expression.

”No one,” Zhao Si’en rubbed her eyes, ”I... the wind was just too strong, and it blew into my eyes.”

She was just too touched, and also too reluctant to part.

Yao Jingsong looked at Zhao Si’en suspiciously, while Gu Lingling pulled her inside by the hand, ”It’s cold outside, come in quickly.”

She glared at Yao Jingsong as well.

Silly, this child is obviously upset, yet he keeps prying.

But his nervousness just now seemed a bit odd.

Inside the house, Zhao Si’en was already nestled beside Grandma Yao. ”Grandma, this dress is just so beautiful. I plan to save it to wear as my new clothes for the New Year.”

”Silly girl, it’s still two months until the New Year. If you like it, Grandma will make another for you then and have Sister Lingling send it to the Capital City,” Grandma Yao said, smiling as she tidied the last stitch, ”Just in time, try it on and see if it looks good?”

One sentence made Zhao Si’en finally burst into tears.

”Silly girl, why are you crying?” Grandma Yao couldn’t help but wipe her own tears, ”Just come back to see Grandma often in the future.”

No matter how reluctant, in the end, they still have to part.

Perhaps even the heavens couldn’t bear the sadness; the day Zhao Si’en left, it started to rain heavily.

Yao Jingsong locked himself in his room and did not come out to see her off.

Zhao Si’en kept looking back, but in the end, she didn’t wait for him. Under the urging of the people who came to pick her up, she got into the car.

Meanwhile, inside his room, Yao Jingsong stood by the window the whole time, no one knew what he was looking at.

Since that day, Gu Lingling noticed a change in her brother.

He would still get up on time to go to work every day, but he was much quieter than before. Whenever he came back, he’d either bury himself in books in his room or tinker with some parts in Yao Zhenjiang’s storage room that Gu Lingling couldn’t comprehend.

He was busier and more diligent than ever before.

Perhaps this is the power of love.

Gu Lingling thought.

But exactly whether the two of them will eventually end up together, who could know?
