Chapter 65. What’s Your Name?
Two hours later, Chi Yuliang received the urn with the ashes.
Sometimes, in the time it takes to go for a run or take a nap, some people have already turned to ash
It happens so quickly
Chi Yuliang carefully cradled the urn, walking out of the oppressive atmosphere of the cremation building.
Even breathing the air of the vast world outside again, she didn’t feel much relief.
On her face, there were still tear stains that hadn’t been wiped clean.
Many pains are deeply etched in the bone and heart.
They can’t be smoothed over by time in a short period.
Chi Yuliang hugged the box tightly, just about to continue walking away, when she suddenly remembered the few people she had met earlier.
She stopped and turned around.
She found that these two young women were indeed still following her.
Ye Zhibai, bringing Ye Zhiyun, hadn’t left immediately.
Ye Zhibai still had some words she wanted to say to Chi Yuliang.
Although Chi Yuliang didn’t know who the person in front of her was, she forced a very pale smile through her grief, nodded to Ye Zhibai and thanked her.
“Thank you… just now inside, it was you who supported me so I didn’t fall. Ah… may I ask if you also came to say goodbye to relatives today, was it on the east side earlier?”
Perhaps it was Ye Zhiyun’s subconscious not wanting to let her sister talk to other women alone.
Before Ye Zhibai could open her mouth, Ye Zhiyun stepped forward and took over the conversation.
“Hello, Miss Chi, like you, we also just came to say goodbye to the one in your arms.”
“…?”
Chi Yuliang didn’t react for a moment.
You also… came to say goodbye to Xiao Bai?
But who are you
With Xiao Bai’s personality, he shouldn’t have known many girls… let alone girls who would come to the crematorium to say goodbye.
Ye Zhibai: How rude of you!
Ye Zhiyun also didn’t know where to start explaining.
This was indeed a bit difficult to explain.
Saying something like the mentor and friend sister met in her dream would only make them sound like weirdos!
If it’s hard to explain, then don’t explain!
Originally, Ye Zhibai was going to step forward, but Zhiyun had blocked her way first!
“Zhiyun, go find a place to wait for me… I have some words I want to talk about privately with Miss Chi Yuliang.”
“…?! But sister!”
“It’s okay, you can watch from a distance, I’m very safe.”
“That’s not what I meant…! Ah! Alright, then sister, please be quick, we should be heading home soon!”
“Mm.”
The process of Ye Zhiyun temporarily retreating to a bench not far away.
She kept looking back every few steps!
Wuu wuu, safety issues are certainly not a problem, the maid team is on standby nearby protecting sister’s safety.
But the problem is, sister actually wants to be alone with another woman!!
Right under my nose!!
And won’t let me listen!!
To be honest, Ye Zhiyun was extremely unwilling, but given that sister had just cried, she really couldn’t say anything.
Perhaps, she wants to talk to this Miss Chi Yuliang, a relevant person, about the subsequent funeral arrangements?
Doesn’t want to let herself continue to hear these sad discussions?
Wuu wuu sister you’re really so gentle!
Even though Ye Zhiyun’s possessiveness was swelling and exploding, once she thought about it this way, she suddenly felt much more at ease!
Sister, talk quickly, and then let’s go home
Hehe, sister is the best.
Thanking Zhiyun’s “Understanding” in her heart.
Ye Zhibai could finally face Cool Sister one-on-one in a private state.
Oh… and there’s also a Guang Yu circling nearby.
But as has been said more than once, she’s not human, she can be ignored, it’s no big deal.
Looking up, gazing into Chi Yuliang’s gentle eyes that revealed confusion amidst sorrow.
Ye Zhibai hesitated, then pondered for a moment.
Telling the truth directly was certainly impossible.
Only a fool would blurt out, “The ashes you’re holding have no soul at all! The real soul is standing right here” — that kind of thing.
If you said something like that, you’d be sent straight to a mental hospital!
Moreover… it was precisely because Ye Zhibai respected this sister that she didn’t want to continue disturbing her peaceful life too much.
The farewell was complete, so this farewell should be respected.
Ye Zhibai straightened her already straight expression and gently asked.
“Chi Yuliang, right?”
“Yes, may I ask…”
“Mm… it’s like this, I and the ashes… cough, the person you’re holding, actually never met in reality, it’s just that before he died… we had a brief encounter in a dream. So, I came to mourn him today, you can just think of me as coming to make up the numbers.”
“Ha… eh?”
Coming to the crematorium… to make up numbers?
Alright.
Don’t look at me with those eyes like I’m mentally ill, listen to me.
Ye Zhibai skipped over this difficult-to-fabricate explanation and cut straight to the point.
This was the purpose of why she wanted to speak to Cool Sister alone again.
“Please don’t be too sad.”
Hearing these words from the silver-haired girl in front of her, a trace of gratitude appeared in Chi Yuliang’s gentle eyes.
But this gratitude certainly still couldn’t cover even a fraction of the sorrow within.
“You mean… to restrain my grief and go with the flow of nature, right. Mm, thank you, little sister, I think so too, but you might not know… sometimes, whether one is sad or not isn’t up to oneself, haha… I just learned this feeling, is it too arrogant to say it out loud, but you’re right, maybe when it’s time to get better, it will get better.”
Chi Yuliang’s words were spoken with such little confidence.
She hugged the urn tighter, holding it in front of her.
Her formidable d-cup chest made Ye Zhibai’s eyes spin!
Ye Zhibai certainly couldn’t rest easy!
It was precisely because she cherished the memories with Cool Sister that she wanted to help her out of this whirlpool of sorrow so much!
In her anxiety, she began to give advice without reservation according to what she thought in her heart.
“Although I have no right to say these things, then, you can just take it as a suggestion. I heard what you said in the cremation building earlier, didn’t you buy osmanthus cake? If you can’t eat it… you can wait until after the funeral is complete and place it at his grave, this way, he will definitely receive it.”
This was a rather ordinary yet heartwarming suggestion.
But Chi Yuliang was stunned by it.
She suddenly frowned, staring straight into Ye Zhibai’s eyes, observing something.
And in her own black eyes, there was an indescribable struggle.
Ye Zhibai felt a bit creeped out by her stare!
Hm?! I don’t think I said anything wrong!
If you don’t want to put it at the grave, you can put the osmanthus cake directly in my mouth!
Same effect! And it can warm little Zhibai!
Chi Yuliang stared for a long time, slowly shaking her head and saying.
“I’m sorry… it’s nothing, it’s just that the way you spoke just now, little sister, reminded me of someone who’s gone. He used to like to comfort me like this too, to be at ease, that everything has a solution, but he’s gone now… Ah! Little sister, maybe you coming here today is indeed some kind of fate. Mm… I’ll listen to you, later I’ll bring the osmanthus cake to Xiao Bai’s grave, let him taste the flavor he liked most as a child.”
Wuu wuu Cool Sister, thank you!
Having said this, out of politeness, Chi Yuliang certainly had to ask.
“By the way, little sister, what’s your name? Although the reason you said you knew Xiao Bai is a bit strange… but I can feel that you’re a good person.”
“Ye Zhibai.”
“…”
